REPORT OF THE BRITISH ECONOMIC MISSION. TO AUSTRALIA. T'o the Rt. Hon. S. M. Bruce, C.H.,,M.C.,, M.P., Prime Minister of the Commonwealth of Australia, Canberra. F.C.'T PART I. INTRODUCTION. 1. At the time of the Imperial Conference held in the autumn of 1926, the Prime Minister of the Commonwealth of Australia raised the question of sending a mission of four independent business men from the United Kingdom to Australia. It was subsequently arranged, at the request of His Majesty's Government in the Commonwealth of Australia, that the personnel of such a mission should be nominated by His Majesty’s Government in Great Britain and should proceed to Australia with the following terms of reference :— ‘ To confer with the Commonwealth and State Governments, with the Development and Migration Commission and the leaders of industry and commerce in Australia on the development of Australian resources and on. any other matters of mutual economic interest to Great Britain and the Commonwealth, which may tend to the promotion of trade between the two countries and the increase of settlement in Australia.’ 2. We were nominated accordingly by His Majesty's Government In Great Britain; our selection was approved by the Common- wealth Government ; we sailed from Marseilles on the Slst August, 1928, and landed at Fremantle on 25th September. Since that date we have visited every State of the Commonwealth and have travelled some 20,000 miles within Australia. We have seen areas of primary production and industrial centres and have held over a hundred conferences with Governments and their officials, with representative public bodies, with labour organizations, and with associations of producers and traders of every kind concerned both with primary and with secondary industries.” In addition we have, as individuals, met and conferred with many of the leading citizens of the Commonwealth. 3. None of us had previously visited Australia, but we appreciated that Australia presents the only example in the world of one people possessing and controlling an island continent; that, owing to its size and geographical position, Australia covers a large range of climatic conditions; and that a great part of Australia is situated in what is known to geographers as the arid belt of the Southern Hemisphere. We knew that the development of Australia had proceeded from harbour settlements, through pastoral settlements Appoint- nent and jerms of reference. Preliminary ybservations. 1 4G9 An
