PUBLIC NOTICE

IMPORT TRADE CONTROL

tance Scheme.

No. 31-ITC(FN)/67.—The last date for the receipt of applications for issue of import licences under the NDRS was 31st December, 1966. A huge number of applications for import licences have been received towards the said last date. The licensing authorities will require some time for completing the scrutiny and disposal of such applications2. It has been represented that the timelag in the issue of import licences will result in delays in the shipment of goods and it is difficult for the parties to enter into commitments or order for shipment in anticipation of the issue of licences. The matter has been considered and it has been decided that in the case of imports under the National Defence Remittance Scheme, the shipment of goods effected after 31st December, 1966 will be allowed clearance by the Customs autho- rities against the licence issued under the National Defence Remittance Scheme, irrespective of the date of issue of the licence, provided the import is otherwise in order and the goods imported and their value are covered by the licence pro- duced to the Customs authorities for clearance. (181)

for the shipment of goods in anticipation of obtaining an import licence will be entirely at the importer's own risks; and any imports made under the provisions of this Public Notice, which are not found by the Customs authorities as other- wise validly covered by the licences produced to them, will be treated as unautho- rised imports and dealt with accordingly in the usual course. The importers should, therefore, consult the C.C.I. & E, (Headquarters Licensing Division), in writing, in cases of doubt, before taking the necessary steps to import the goods.
