Price index prediction
The jubilation of the Minister of Trade and Industry, Mr Templeton, at the recently announced consumers price index rise of only 3.5 per cent for the year ending in March, would be shortlived, said the president 'of the New Zealand Party, Mr Malcolm McDonald. “An economy which is so
strictly controlled by the Government cannot possibly give a true picture of the country’s real position. We see the 3.5 per cent rise as being the lowest point that will be reached for a very long time if 'the National Party continues with its current economic management,” said Mr McDonald.
