The Prime Minister has received representation from the
Premier of Western Australia, Sir Charles Court, seeking
Commonwealth intervention in legal action to prevent the
Australian Meat Industry Employees Union from continuing
bans on the export of live sheep from Western Australia.
The Prime Minister said his Government will do everything
it can to support the Western Australian Government in
this matter, and suggested officials of the two Governments
get together as soon as possible to work out a course of
action.
