Canuto, V.M., 1981: On the variation of G and scale invariant gravitation — A reply. Mon. Not. Roy. Astron. Soc., 197, 1093-1095.

The scale invariant gravitational Lagrangian ℒg presented by the author several years ago, must be supplemented by a matter Lagrangian ℒm.

It is shown that the form of ℒm proposed by Kembhavi & Pollock (their equation 3) far from being "inescapable" or "the only possible form" as the authors claim, is instead a very particular case that contains already imprinted all the results believe they have discovered.

The conclusions of KP are therefore erroneous.
