  1. The applicants must be prepared to submit their
    machines or processes to examination at such time and
    place as the Government may direct.
  2. The Government shall appoint a committee of three or
    more experts, to whom all applications shall be submitted.
    Such committee shall, after perusal, state what machines or
    processes they deem worthy of consideration, and may inspect the same at any place within the colony; and, having
    so inspected the whole or any of them, may direct that the
    whole or any of them be brought for further trial to such
    place as they may think fit.
    The cost of bringing the machines or appliances on to the
    ground, from within the colony, supplying the necessary
    shafting, motive-power, and buildings, to be defrayed by the
    Government. If any machine sent from beyond the colony
    is awarded the bonus or part thereof, then the cost of
    bringing such machine shall be borne by the Government.
    The following shall be the basis of the test:—
    The committee shall supply a sufficient and equal quantity of green hemp to each machine or process as a test.
    The committee shall take into consideration—
    The time occupied by each machine or process in the
    operation;
    The cost of labour and time required after the fibre has
    left the machine or process before it is ready for
    baling;
    The percentage of dressed fibre and tow produced by
    each machine or process;
    The cost of producing the same;
    The cost of the machine, and the simplicity and durability of the working parts.
    On completion of the tests the committee shall furnish a
    report to the Minister on all the machines or processes which
    they have examined or tested, and shall state,—
    1.) The machine or process which they consider on the
    whole the most efficient and economic.
    (2.) Whether they consider that any machine or process
    tested so materially reduces the cost of production, or improves the product, as to be worthy of
    the whole bonus or of a part only.
    (3.) Whether, in the event of no one machine or process
    being entitled to the whole bonus, they deem any
    machine or process worthy of a part of the bonus,
    and, if so, how much.
    Bonus No. 2.
    A bonus of £250 is offered for a process of utilising the
    waste products of the hemp.
    The first three conditions of Bonus No. 1 to apply to this
    also.
    The committee shall supply a sufficient and equal quantity
    of the waste products to each process as a test.
    On completion of the tests the committee shall report to
    the Minister, and shall give the following particulars of each
    process: (a.) The nature of the article made. (b.) The
    quantity produced, and the cost of production. (c.) The
    value of the product. (d.) Whether any of the processes are
    of sufficient importance to warrant the Minister in giving
    (1) the whole, or (2) any part, of the bonus; (3) if a part
    only, how much.
