AUSTRALIAN MEAT
THREE MONTHS' EXPORTS BRITAIN ACCEPTS OFFER BRISBANE. Jan. 10 The Federal Minister of Commerce,* Dr. Earle Pags, announced to-day that a cable message had been received from the British Government announcing that Britain had agreed to accept the offer made by the Federal Government in relation to meat exports for the next three months.
"This means that the British Government will not pow impose the proposed restriction on Australian meat," said Dr. Page. "The Federal Government made a fair offer to Britain to cover exports for the next three months, although at the same 'time maintaining its opposition to the principle of restriction."
A message from Melbourne states that exporters of meat to Britain are being advised by the Department of Commerce that further permits for shipments of mutton and lamb, which would arrive in Britain during the first quarter of this year, are not to be issued.
No restriction has yet been placed on the export of beef as suggested. The quota has not been approached.
