Going Ahead With Plan For Airline
(Rec. 11 a.m.) CANBERRA, This Day
The Federal Government iniends to go ahead with its plan to establish a Commonwealth inter-State airline.
This decision has been made in spite of the High Court judgment that parts of the Airlines Act are invalid.
A Government spokesman said: “We shall establish our own airline, though the date of its inauguration has not yet been fixed. 4 ’
It is believed that the Government will use control of airmail subsidies and ownership of aerodromes and navigational facilities to ensure that the Government airline is able to compete on a favourable basis with private services.
