TOP LEVEL TALKS
Aluminium Scheme
(New Zealand Press Association) WELLINGTON, April 1.
Top level discussions between the representatives of Consolidated Zinc Pty., which is expected to build the £100,000,000 aluminium smelting scheme in Southland, and senior Ministry of Works officials will take place at Invercargill towards the end of this month. The conference follows a series of meetings which have been held between officers of the two parties in recent weeks. The talks are to make an up-to-date assessment of investigations already carried out so that the company can more easily determine the cost factors involved, particularly regarding the development of the required amount of electric power from Lake Manapouri.
In addition to three Ministry of Works officers, the conference is expected to be attended by four Americans, and three Australians. on behalf of the company. There will be present also two officers of the company who have been engaged in an actual physical survey of the area involved.
