Defence debate seizes on ALP ties to communism
In a defence debate in Parliament, Dr Mackay accused the Labor Party of dancing to the Communist tune over Vietnam and the Angaus treaty. He urged Mr Whitlam to reconcile Labor’s support for the Angaus Treaty with Dr Davies’s statements, warning the party could sweep away defence gains if in power. The opposition pressed allegations while government members defended defence policy and security measures.

Opposition in Senate Backs Move on Ansett Takeover
The Opposition in the Senate will back the Democratic Labour Party in seeking a Senate inquiry into Ansett Transport Industries takeover plans. Senator Gait signaled a motion to refer the matter to the Senate Standing Committee on Primary and Secondary Industries and Trade for a 28 day report and to allow committee hearings during sessions. The inquiry would examine foreign ownership of Thomas Nationwide Transport and the implications of the takeover, plus how the Postmaster General should apply the Broadcasting and Television Act to approvals involving shires or ATI licences.
