Re-Commissioned Mills (Future)

51.

Mr. Willey
asked the Minister of Food whether he will make a statement on the future of Re-Commissioned Mills Limited.

Dr. Hill
In the crop year 1954–55, Re-Commissioned Mills Ltd will provide a drying and storage service for wheat and coarse grain at commercial rates. The long-term policy is still being considered.

Mr. Willey
In view of the importance of this service, will the Parliamentary Secretary expedite consideration of the long-term policy?

Dr. Hill
I realise the importance of an early decision, but many interests are involved and consultations are still proceeding.
