Canberra senator Lamp attacked shopkeepers during Senate debate
ENATCH LAMP, a National Capital Planning and Development Committee member, assailed Canberra shopkeepers as arrogant. He accused the government and hotel developments of delaying Canberra’s retail growth, blaming Lamp for obstructive delays and mischaracterizing efforts to improve amenities. He criticized the Planning Committee for inaction, arguing no major shopping facilities have been added since 1981 aside from a withdrawn lease, and claimed Lamp’s tenure worsened Canberra’s delays.

Banks objected to act says Mr Chifley in House
Prime Minister Mr Chifley told the House of Representatives that private banks refused to recognise a vital clause in the 1940s banking reform. He answered Mr Beale and defended government approval at the 1948 elections, noting banks disputed the clause compelling government bodies to transfer accounts to the Commonwealth Bank. The High Court case and bank objections are mentioned with references to public support for the 1949 Act and 1946 origins.
