Livestock Industry Act 1937
The Livestock Industry Act 1937 was passed by the Parliament of the United Kingdom on 20 July of that year. The Act was part of a comprehensive proposal for the stabilization of domestic production and prices of beef and regulation by quota of foreign beef importation. A subsidy measure was imposed by tariff levied on foreign beef, while Australian and New Zealand producers were favoured. The Act was superseded in its entirety by the Agriculture Act 1957.
