15. Meat for Local Consumption (1960)

15. Meat for Local Consumption

(from "Chairman's Report of the Twelfth Meeting")

An interpretation of the term "meat for local consumption" contained in Paragraph 9(a) and (b) of the Schedule had been adopted by the Commission at the Eleventh Meeting and subsequently circulated to Contracting Governments. The item was included in the agenda for the Twelfth Meeting because the Commissioner for the U.S.S.R. had replied that although the terms of the interpretation were acceptable to his Government the matter might usefully be discussed. At the present meeting the Commissioner for the U.S.S.R. intimated that he had no specific comment to make and that the Commission's interpretation remained acceptable to his Government.
