COFFEE QUOTA ALLOCATED FOR RE-EXPORT
The Commerce and Industry Department announced today that
it was prepared to approve applications to import coffee for re-export
purposes from non-member countries of the International Coffee Agreement.
A quota of 150,000 kilograms has been allocated for this
purpose for the next coffee year, starting October 1974.
A spokesman for the department said the quota would be allocated
in consignments of 30,000 kilograms per application.
Successful applications will be ballotted for on the basis
of applications received by noon on Monday, September 17.
There will be no change in the procedure in respect of coffee
imported from member countries.

1973 the Commerce and Industry Department had only approved applications
to import coffee from non-member countries for local consumption.
The spokesman said a further announcement regarding imports
of coffee from non-member countries for the coming coffee year would be
made as soon as information was received
