Vol. 378 No. 10

Written Answers. - Bovine Animal Hides Processing.

104.

asked the Minister for Industry and Commerce his proposals for the processing of bovine animal hides in view of the massive imports of unprocessed hides at present; and if there is an export subsidy on unprocessed hides.

While negotiation of industrial projects is a matter of day-to-day activity of the Industrial Development Authority, I understand that the authority are in discussions with a number of parties regarding the development of intermediate and final processing of bovine hides.

I am informed that there is no export subsidy on unprocessed hides.
