Answering a written Parliamentary question. Mr Templeton said it was “not possible or feasible to attempt to identify either those New Zealand industries or products manufactured by a particular industry that might suffer, or gain, from the introduction of C.E.R."
While trade liberalisation would result in New Zealand industry having to face the prospect of gradually increased competition from Australian products, the pace of .change would be well known, Mr Templeton said. “This will enable New Zealand industry to plan and to implement adjustments that take account of the new trading environment." The proposed C.E.R. agreement contained provisions to deal with industries which were severely affected. he said.
