establishment of statutory measures relating to levies, registration, the keeping of records and rendering of returns. The applicant for the proposed statutory measures is AMIE, an association founded in 1996, which was established due to a need by meat and poultry importers and
exporters,  for  a  mouthpiece  to  speak  on  their  behalf  and  to  look  after  the  interests  of  its members.
