C.A.P. loss ‘good’
Wellington reporter The disintegration of the Common Agricultural Policy of the E.E.C. will be good for New Zealand in the long term, but will provide many short-term headaches, according to the Prime Minister, Sir Robert Muldoon, in an article in the stud sheep and beef cattle magazine,
“Country Life.” He said C.A.P. had done much damage to New Zealand’s interests, both in Europe and on the world markets. Its demise would clearly produce changes in European production over time, and that could only help
efficient producers such as New Zealand. In the short term, however, there would be many headaches, Sir Robert said. These would include a reversion to national policies (by E.E.C. members) which in turn might involve dumping of surpluses on the world market.
