ECONOMIC CONSULTATIONS
Statement by the Prime M nister, Mr. John Gorton
Invitations have been extended to representatives of national
organisations to meet with Ministers in Canberra cn Thursday and Friday
( 2 and 3 July). Mnisters will meet representative national organisations in
three groups primary industry, manufacturing industry and commerce.
In addition, representatives of the Manufacturing Industries
Advisory Council, the Export Development Council and the Australian Council
of Trade Unions will each have separate discussions with Ministers.
I am sure that these talks, to be held before our Budget discussions,
will be most useful in providing Ministers with the current vievws of those
directly involved in commerce and industry.
