More Goods From Britain In 1950: No Details Yet
(P.A.) AUCKLAND, Aug. 11. "When the Minister of Finance, Mr. AY. Nash, said in London last month that he would seek an immediate increase in New Zealand imports from Britain, he was speaking in general terms.
This has been explained by the Minister in a letter to the Bureau of Importers which sent him a telegram on his return to the Dominion inquiring the nature of the extra goods for which import licenses would be granted. "The reference meant that we did plan in future owing to the nonavailability of dollars to import more goods from the United Kingdom than in the past.” said Mr. Nash in his reply. "Detailed schedules will be prepared by the Customs Department, mainly in connection with 1950 importations. As soon as these are available 1 will arrange for you to be advised and for them to be published in the press."
