This summary of the plant quarantine import restrictions of the French 
colony of New Caledonia and its dependencies has been prepared for the in- 
formation of nurserymen, plant quarantine officials, and others interested in 
the exportation of plants and plant products to that colony. 
It was prepared by Harry B. Shaw, plant quarantine inspector, in charge of

his translation of decree no. 103 C, January 27, 1934. 
The information contained in this circular is believed to be correct and com- 
plete up to the time of preparation, but it is not intended to be used independ- 
ently of, nor as a substitute for, the original text, and it is not to be inter- 
preted as legally authoritative.
