BUTTER AND CHEESE
HOMELAND IMPORTS AID FOR OWN FARMERS. DUTIES OR LEVIES BEST. , C British Official Wireless.l (Received 2 p.m.) RUGBY, July 25, Questioned in the House of Commons regarding the; Government’s policy for milk products, Mr Walter Elliot replied that the Government would review the dairy produce situation fully before next March, but as to the problem created by butter and cheese imports, the Government was of opinion that, should conditions' warrant continued assistance to the Home dairy industry, it could be best afforded by a system of duties or levies. Though the possibility could not be excluded that the regulation of the market might sometimes be necessaxy,. the incidence of any such duty or levy would be adjusted to maintain the existing preferential margin for Empire supplies. The position of milk powder and Condensed milk would receive separate consideration after the report by the Import Duties Advisory Committee.
