Written submissions should be addressed to: The Chairman, Meat Division Review Team, STATE SERVICES COMMISSION, Private Bag, WELLINGTON. These submissions should be forwarded by Wednesday, August 17, 1983. The terms of reference are: 1. To determine whether the Meat Division’s inspection programme is the most effective means of achieving the purity and safety standards required by importing countries government requirements. In doing so determine: (a) whether parts of the inspection programme might properly and effectively be undertaken by the industries serviced; (b) the financial and staffing savings that could accrue to: (1) the Government; and (ii) New Zealand should it be determined that part or all of the programme should be transferred to the industries serviced; (c) the legislative implications of any such transfer or responsibility. 2. To identify and quantify the inefficiencies in resource use arising from a taxpayer-funded inspection service and recommend ways of improving resource use. 3. To examine the implications of moving to a service in which costs are recovered in whole or part. 4.
