Minister Defends Credit Policy Against Business Slowdown Claims
The Navy Minister, Mr McMahon, rejected claims that restrictive credit and capital controls worsened business conditions in Australia. He cited October 1904 private bank advances rising by £25.3 million and annual increases to £129 million, arguing controls restrained expansion. He noted capital offers for public subscription around £111 million, vs £90 million in 1980 and £57 million in 184, and contended capital controls were not properly addressing underlying issues despite past problems in 1961.
