The Acting Treasurer, Mr. Gorton, said today that Australian
officials and officials of the Federal Republic of Germany negotiating in
Canberra have agreed on the text of a draft agreement for the avoidance OZ
double taxation between Australian and the Federal Republic of Germany.

The draft agreement will now be submitted to the Governments of
