Australia to Apply Geneval Agreement Provisionally
The Australian Government announced in Parliament that Australia would provisionally accept the draft general agreement on tariffs and trade from Geneva for six months. The plan includes tabling the agreement in November and possibly seeking Parliament's approval later, contingent on unanimity of participating governments and notification to the United Nations Secretary-General by November 15 1947. The provisional adoption aims to safeguard concessions and balance imperial interests while advancing Expo opportunities and exporting benefits.
