Beef quota system explained by Commonwealth Meat Controller
Mr Tonkin outlined how the federal beef quota operates in New South Wales. The Commonwealth takes 66 2/3% of all beef carcases killed. operators who buy 12 cattle at £15 each must hand over eight carcases for £15 each, leaving £60 of beef to share among customers with one-third quota per April. He warned a black market would require selling for over £100, a burden unlikely for retailers. In Wauchope a public meeting failed to gather support for reviving the annual show, leading to a sports day plan with patriotic bodies and a dedicated sub-committee.
