DRASTIC CUTS IN IMPORT QUOTAS

SIXTH PERIOD

NEW BASIS USED ALLOCATION DETAILS BRITAIN AND DOMINIONS New import quotas for the sixth period, covering the whole of 1942, were announced to-day by the Customs Department. The basis of licensing is radically altered, the Department having adopted 1940, in place of 1938, licensing allocations. Also for a wide vange of commodities, the British Dominions are now, for the first time, grouped with the United Kingdom on a footing of equality. . The number of totally prohibited items remains substantially the same as for the current vear. These which are classified under "D" are eliminated from the list published below for space reasons, but a few items under "D," which are affected differently in the new schedule, are included. A substantial cut in the quotas applying to goods from the K. mt £ d Kln g a «rn and other parts of the Empire has been made over an extensive range of commodities. Allocations are to be made on the following basis in respect of the various items contained in the schedule. Items Marked A—Allocation for imports from United Kingdom and Crown Colonies only will be granted up to 50 per cent of value of licenses granted for imports from those sources in 1940. AA—Allocation for imports from United Kingdom and other British countries will be granted up to 50 per cent of the value of licenses granted for imports from those sources in 1940. B—Allocation for imports from all sources will be granted up to 50 per cent of the value of licenses granted for imports from those countries in 1940. BB—Allocation for imports from all sources will be granted up to 100 per cent of the value of licenses granted for imports from those sources in 1940. C—ltems now regarded as "control" and for which applications will be considered individually. D—ltems for which no allocation is made. Note.—(l) In certain cases allocation will be granted having regard to licenses issued in 1941. These are indicated in the schedule with an asterisk. (2) In a few oases allocation is to be granted having regard to imports in 1938. These items are noted in the schedule accordingly. "Ex" signifies a part of an item. The foregoing was contained in a preamble to the detailed list of import quotas. Application of 1940 Basis

When an explanation was sought regarding the application of the 1940 basis, an official of the Customs Department, Wellington, stated that the new basis was the value of licenses issued for the third and fourth licensing periods, which covered imports for the first and second six-monthly periods in 1940. Third period licenses were issued in 1939, and fourth period in April, 1940.
