Negotiations to Cover Future Years "When I left for England muttor and lamb supplies from New Zealand for 1937 were .still mdefinite, and subject to Ihe prospect of a smaller allocation than for 1936," said Air Nash. "In addition the freedom from a levy on New .Zealand mutton and lamb entering the United -Kingdom was to expire in August 1937. I may say, inimediate'ly, that the result of the negotiations, during tjbe . early iponths of this year, have been ..to ensure tliat New Zealand is to be. free from levy on mutton and lamb for future years. Tn addilion the New Zealand mutton and lamb allocation for 1937 is to be the highest in our history, 4,000,900 cwtft. This is in accord with our objective oi leguplutod expansion of necpssary food supplies to tliose who need them. For future years the allocations will be the subject of negotiation between the New Zealand and the United Kingdom (rovernment, the objective being maximum supplies to consumers, at. priees consistent witli reasonable remunerntiou to producers. This result was achieved only at'ter Iengthy "discussions and the recbguition of Ihe essenlial validit'y oi' tke New Zealand point of viow.
