IMPORT OF SANITARY EARTHENWARE
LICENCE ALLOCATION ANNOUNCED (From Our Parliamentary Reporter.) WELLINGTON, November 9. A basic allocation of 100 per cent, of 1950 import licences for imports of sanitary earthenware and associated products was announced by the Minister of Customs (Mr C. M. Bowden) to-day. Sanitary earthenware was a “deferred” item in the 1951 import licensing schedule. Mr Bowden said that the item had been deferred because representations had been received about the volume of imports which should be allowed for next year. The Import Advisory Committee had heard representations frotn the sole New Zealand manufacturer and representatives of hardware merchants. . plumbers’ merchants, and United Kingdom manufacturers. After considering the evidence it had recommended that the present level of imports should be continued for 1951. Mr Bowden added that the committee had repotted that there was no trafficking in licences for sanitary earthenware. There were no major anomalies in the licensing of this item, the importation of which was confinea to a relatively small number of licensees.
