MEAT IMPORT QUOTA
NO RESTRICTIONS ON KILLINGS GOVERNMENT AND BOARD DISCUSS SITUATION I Per Press Association.] WELLINGTON, Feb. 24. The situation that has arisen because of the restriction placed by the British authorities on this year’s imports of New Zealand mutton and lamb into the United Kingdom was discussed to-day at a meeting the Minister of Marketing, Hon. W. Nash, had with the New Zealand Meat Producers' Board. There is to be no restriction on killings but should they exceed the quota allowed, the Government and the board will take steps to deal with the surplus. “There will be no restriction in sheep or lamb killings in New Zealand during 1939," said Mr. Nash, "even though killings may be expected to exceed the quota at present allowed by the United Kingdom. The Government and the board will take all steps that are required to deal with any surplus.”
