✨ Government Policy and Civil Defence




My Government has authorised the re-equipment of the National
Airways Corporation with the most modern aircraft. Agreement on the
construction of a new airport at Mangere, Auckland, will ensure the
completion of the chain of airports at the main centres. The international
airport at Nandi, Fiji, the construction of which was directed
by the New Zealand Ministry of Works, has been opened.

My Government has continued to encourage the development of the
tourist industry, which has yielded increased earnings of foreign exchange.
A Tourist Consultative Committee was established last year
shortly before New Zealand acted as host to the Ninth Pacific Area
Travel Conference.

The first Regional Commissioners for Civil Defence have been
appointed to promote and coordinate local civil defence schemes under
the general direction of the Ministry of Civil Defence.

My Government will give early consideration to the report of the
Local Bills Committee on the structure of local government.

I pray that with God's blessing your deliberations on all these and
related matters may prove to the lasting benefit of the people of New
Zealand.
