They were as follows: consignors should show the gross weights of packages containing inflammable liquids, etc; the limit for small items excluded from .labelling requirements should be increased; the exemption limit For inflammable liquids, etc, carried on a vehicle should be increased to 1000kg with a degree of tolerance; the label signifying a particular class of hazard should be replaced by a general warning plate indicatng that the vehicle is carrying dangerous 3.ub stances.
