Reduction in Airline Services for Canberra Area

Projections from the Department of Transport anticipate further reductions in air services to and from Canberra due to a sharp drop in passenger demand. Canberra Airport traffic in 1973-74 is seen not to reach the 1972-73 levels and remains far below 1971-72 figures, with a predicted drop continuing into 1978-79. Passenger numbers fell from 670,928 in 1971-72 to 433,135 in 1972-73 and 917,268 the following year, signaling a sustained decline. Government travel restrictions and a shift to lower public expenditure have hurt flight demand and fares, complicating recovery prospects for regional air travel between Canberra, Sydney, and other destinations.

He noted a 16 660 drop in visitors, with declines of 10.7 percent in some markets and 55.5 percent in others. Currency devaluation may slow the drop and the issue will be examined by the Tourism Select Committee.

Australia faces a mineral boom amid trade and inflation risk

A critical shift in Australia’s economy ties mineral discoveries to export growth while manufacturing braces for competition from imports. Devaluation aims to speed industrial shift, but inflation and protectionist barriers threaten the era's outcome. A federal tariff and policy changes could redraw the balance between exporters and the protected manufacturing sector.
