Special Areas Development Bill outlines economic reconstruction plan
The government plans supervision over new organizations during a preliminary period but stresses no nationalization. The bill aims to aid business enterprise, with eventual independence for organizations as confidence grows. It covers relief distribution reorganization between departments to align with regional economic recovery and occupational registration, Labour Exchange, and industrial development. The bill is an organic tool for regional economic reconstruction to restore independence via collective effort. Public comment is invited, with the full bill printed in the Newfoundland Gazette April 29 1940 and responses due by June 1 1940.
