Bakers’ Contribution For Wheat Research
(P.A.) WELLINGTON, This Day. At the request of the New? Zealand Master Bakers and Pastrycooks’ Association the contribution of bakers to the work of the Wheat Research Institute, is to be increased as-from January 1 ( 1946, from lid to 2Jd a ton on flour sold to bakers.
This is being done by increasing from 1/- to 1/6 a ton the levy made by the Wheat Committee on flour bought by bakers. . An amendment was gazetted last night to the Board of Trade (Wheat and Flour) Regulations, 1944, which authorises this increase and also revises the sections of the principal regulations dealing with the wheatgrowers’ compensation scheme. s
Hitherto it has been obligatory on every- grower whose crop suffered damage from any of a number of causes specified to have his land occupied by the damaged crop until the normal time of harvest if he wishes to qualify for compensation. Tonight’s amendment gives the Wheat Committee some discretionary power, enabling it to permit a damaged crop to be ploughed under without being carried forward to harvest. The land may thus, by agreement, be put to other use without the grower being deprived of compensation.
