Industries Development Commission Notice No. 1977/4: General Textile Industry Reference

1. The Commission gave notice of this reference in the New Zealand Gazette No. 104, of 7 October 1976. The first paragraph of the notice which sets out the reference reads:

“In a letter of 7 September 1976, the Minister of Trade and Industry requested the Commission to co-ordinate and co-operate with the industry in the preparation of an industry development plan for the textile industry and in so doing to:

Inquire into and report on the present situation of the textile industry; the potential for the development of, and the objectives for, the textile industry during the next ten years; and

Recommend strategies for development and assistance over the next ten years.

For the purpose of the inquiry and report the textile industry is to be taken to consist of the industries making textiles-fibres, yarns and fabrics-and textile products including clothing, and importers and distributors of textiles and textile products. The goods concerned are those classified in Section XI of the Customs Tariff of New Zealand, but when making its inquiry and report the Commission may take evidence on, and otherwise have regard to, any other material or product it considers relevant to the inquiry, or exclude from its consideration any material or product it might consider not relevant to such inquiry.

During the course of this inquiry and within the general terms of this reference, the Commission may, at its discretion and on its own initiative, further this inquiry or any part thereof by such means as it thinks fit, including by one or more formal hearings or otherwise, and give such notification of its intentions as it thinks necessary.”

2. In the same notice the Commission announced that a steering group had been set up to advise the Commission on procedural matters, including the setting up of working parties to consider relevant aspects of their particular sectors of the textile industry. The steering group comprises representatives of textile and garment manufacturers, including the woollen mills, wholesale distributors, retailers, the Federation of Labour, the Department of Trade and Industry, and the Customs Department. After consultation with the steering group, the Commission has decided to change its procedures because of the need to accelerate the pace of the inquiry.
