Federal Labour Party Policy Calls for Monetary Reform and Bank Nationalisation
The Federal Labour manifesto outlines radical monetary reform and a nation wide trading bank through a strengthened Commonwealth Bank. It calls for public accounts to flow through the bank, currency stabilisation, and a inquiry into private banking, with reductions in interest rates to aid primary and secondary industries and home buyers. It also promises public works programs, shorter working hours, higher wages, and restoration of emergency reductions in pensions and public service pay. The document urges workers to oppose opposition factions and notes resistance from money interests.
