Media release – Primary Production Committee
The Primary Production Committee is inviting public submissions on the Dairy Industry Restructuring Bill 2001. The
closing date for submissions is no later than 5.00 pm, 20 July 2001.
The bill provides for the regulatory and structural reform of the dairy industry by removing restrictions on the
exporting of New Zealand diary products and authorising the amalgamation of New Zealand dairy co-operative companies and
makes the Dairy Board a subsidiary of the new co-operative company, Global Dairy Company Limited.
Copies of the bill can be purchased from Bennetts Government Bookshops.
The committee requires 20 copies of each submission. Those wishing to include any information of a private or personal
nature in a submission should first discuss this with the clerk of the committee, as submissions are usually released to
the public by the committee. Those wishing to appear before the committee to speak to their submissions should state
this clearly and provide a daytime telephone contact number. For further guidance on making a submission, our
publication Making a Submission to a Parliamentary Select Committee can be found on our web site at
