TRANSCRIPT OF PRESS CONFERENCE, AUSTRALIAN BICENTENNIAL AUTHORITY
3 OCTOBER 1985
JOURNALIST: Are we any closer to a new Chairman, Prime Minister?
PM: Yes every day brings u-S closer to the new Chairman but
we are very fortunate that in the mean Lime we have an admirable
interim Chairman in John Utz. And not only I, and the Government,
but I think the people of Australia are indebted to him for
moving in in these circumstances. And we appreciate it very
much indeed.
JOURNALST: When will the new Chairman be announced, Sir?

FOR MEDIA 27 September 1985
My attention has been drawn to a statement issued by the
Leader of the Opposition which claims that I " wilfully
misled" the Parliament in the tabling on 19 September of
some documents relating to the Australian Bicentennial
Authority. At their most generous interpretation, the~ claims are
extraordinarily inisconceived, and at worst, they are
deliberately misrepresentative of the situation as the
Leader of the Opposition knows it.
