FRUIT CANNING INDUSTRY DEVELOPMENT PLAN

This is the fourth annual allocation of six-yearly rounds of tendering under the fruit canning industry development plan. Manufacturers who have accepted an allocation in terms of the plan and any subsidiary companies, are not eligible to tender.

TYRE AND TUBE INDUSTRY DEVELOPMENT PLAN

This is the sixth allocation of licence under this plan. No single group of companies is allowed to win more than the specified maximum number of units a tenderer may bid for as advertised under each tender for tubes and tyres. A group of companies is regarded as those companies associated by a 25 percent or more direct or indirect common investment. Licence will be withheld entirely from any group of companies going beyond this limit.

It should be noted that the format of the tender is not in line with previous tenders. The licence unit size is now in $2,000 lots. Bid form T. & I. 335D should be used as for other tenders. A full year’s allocation of licence is offered for tender rather than two separate 6-monthly tenders. It should be further noted that a single invoice and a single licence will be made out for successful bids by each tenderer in each separate tender number.
