ALP Education Report Recommends State Aid Stance
The National Advisory Committee on Education presents recommendations to the Federal Executive on state aid for non-government schools. It proposes deleting cost-based language, redefining funding responsibility, and adding sub-clauses on grants, university access, scholarships, educational TV, and book production while aligning with the 1965 Federal Conference policy.

State aid education policy urged by ALP members
A condensed minority report argues for a positive national Labor policy on education, proposing Commonwealth aid to both State and non government schools, a unified approach across the Commonwealth, and a permanent Australian Schools Commission to oversee reform after a national inquiry into primary secondary and technical education.
