Prices Inquiry: UAW pushes meat price relief to government
The Union of Australian Women urged the government to order price cuts to levels of late December and, if uncooperative, to restrict export permits. They proposed a two tier system with overseas and local meat prices, a minimum farmer price, a maximum consumer price, and an export tax to aid small producers. Legislation for nationwide uniform meat marketing and grading was also urged, while the Australian Meat Board faced consumer criticism for favoring large exporters.

Imports Cheaper Driven by Currency Shifts in March Quarter
Treasury told a sub committee that currency revaluation and dollar devaluation were major factors in lower import prices in the March quarter with a 35 percent drop from December and a 3.4 percent fall from the March quarter last year. An official noted consumer price effects would appear mainly in the second half of the year. The Australian Wool and Meat Producers Federation warned there is no single fix for meat prices, suggesting higher supply and price guarantees like those for wheat, while stressing livestock numbers must rise to avoid shortages.
