• In the United States of America and Great Britain, two countries which have experienced the same sort of stagflation which the Australian Government is now creating, unemployment does not end unrest, even in industries which are worst hit. [More…]

• Dr Balogh was the adviser to the Labour Cabinet in Great Britain for 4 years and to the Labour Prime Minister of Great Britain. [More…]

[More…]

• Problems also can be seen in Great Britain’s proposal to join the European Economic Community. [More…]

• Government supporters wring their hands in pity and concern about the problems associated with Great Britain’s entering the European Common Market but for 10 years they took no action, using the powers that they possessed as those responsible or supposedly responsible for this country, to seek markets alternative to those whose loss they are now bemoaning. [More…]

• I have drawn attention already to the document relating to the reorganisation of the Post Office in Great Britain. [More…]

• I return then to the editorial in today’s ‘Financial Review’, in which the editor dismisses the suggestion of a wage freeze as a curb to inflation because in Great Britain this measure turned out to be a trick. [More…]

[More…]

• It would not be feasible for me to calculate from the College’s estimate of deaths, the economic loss associated with mortality and morbidity due to smoking in Great Britain. [More…]

• More than 25 per cent of the money Australia spends overseas in the form of administration that makes certain that we in Australia receive reports from overseas is spent in Great Britain, and most of it is spent at Australia House. [More…]

• However, I believe that because of the decline in trade with Great Britain and the fact that we have built up a Foreign Affairs Department with embassies throughout the capitals of Europe and throughout South East Asia, the Government must give serious consideration to what is happening at Australia House. [More…]

• It is true that our Department of Immigration has 318 people looking after the migrants that we are trying to get not only from Great Britain but also from Europe, but even in that area only approximately 100 of these people are Australian based personnel. [More…]

• Once having left Great Britain, further increases in pension are not payable to recipients. [More…]

• However, I think it is a weakness in the Act and in the arrangement between Australia and Great Britain that once a person in her situation leaves Great Britain there is no increase above the level of social service payments received from Great Britain and she is not entitled to an Australian pension until she has been here for 10 years. [More…]

• I do not believe that fellows like Biggs and other interantional crooks would be able to move in and out of the United States, Australia, Canada and Great Britain if this policy were adopted and eventually implemented because with positive means of identification such as the left thumb print or the right or left index finger print it would make it virtually impossible for such people to obtain somebody else’s passport.
