DOMINION LEGISLATION
INVESTIGATION PLANNED TASMANIAN MISSION (Per Press Association.) WELLINGTON, this day. A delegation of Tasmanian Parliamentarians arrived at Wellington yesterday by the Awatea on special missions to investigate the New Zealand Government's financial policy and its reactions in New Zealand and upon Australia and Tasmania. The party comprised Mr. Edmund Dwyer-Gray, Treasurer, of Tasmania; Mr. J. McDonald, M.L.C., honorary Minister, and Mr. J. R: Quinn, private secretary to Mr. Dwyer-Gray. They expect to spend about three weeks in New Zealand.
"We have come," said Mr. DwyerGray, "to conduct an inquiry into the financial and economic effects of the Government's financial policy, and ascertain as far as possible the actualities of the banking and financial position in New Zealand and its reactions on Australia and possibly on Tasmania.'
He naturally did not wish to express any definite opinions on any of the problems of the Dominion until he knew more about them, but he could say at once, at any rate tentatively, that in his opinion the New Zealand Government was justified in its proposals to license imports and exports and control them.
