As this campaign draws to its close, the central issues for
the judgment of the Australian people on Saturday remain as
they were at the beginning whether we are, as a nation
under Labor, to consolidate and build upon the great gains
of 1983 and 1984, to sustain in the years ahead strong
economic growth without inflation, and on these firm
foundations to build a fairer, more equitable society in a

HAKYOU FOR THE OPPORTUNITY TO SPEAK TO YOU TODAY ABOUT
THE ECONOMY AND ABOUT ECONOMIC MANAGEMENT.
THIS GOVERNMENT CONSIDERS EFFECTIVE ECONOMIC MANAGEMENT TO BE
THE LYNCHPIN UPON WHICH ALL OUR OTHER ASPIRATIONS DEPEND,
IN A VERY FUNDAMENTAL SENSE, A MORE RAPIDLY GROWING
ECONOMIC CAKE PROVIDES MUCH GREATER OPPORTUNITY FOR ACHIEVING
THE TYPE OF SOCIAL AND ECONOMIC CHANGES THAT SO MANY OF US
WANT TO SEE.

FOR MEDIA 20 NOVEMBER 1984
The Prime Minister today totally rejected a claim by the
National Secretary of the RSL, Mr Ian Gollings, that the
Department of Veterans' Affairs was to be cut back. It
would continue to have full and unchanged responsibility
for the care of the ex-service community.
He said Mr Golling's comments were utterly wrong, with no
foundation whatsoever.
" I find it extremely disappointing considering
that Mr Gollings knows how closely this Government
has worked and consulted with ex-service organisations,
