Tripp (president of the Wellington Acclimatisation Society), for, a conference of representatives of Government .Departments, societies, and individuals interested to leport as to the best method of dealing with this growing nuisance throughout the Dominion? Mr. Bollard replied yesterday as follows: "The Government has decided to remove protection on deer at the close of the next stalking season, unless it can be shown that adequate steps are being taken by acclimatisation societies to cope with the menace. Before, however, final action is taken, all parties concerned will be consulted. The acclimatisation societies have been informed to that effect."
