Pacific Role
NEW ZEALAND and Australian Min isters met in Canberra in June, in an atmosphere of secrecy.
The New Zealand visitors would not talk to reporters although they admitted that their mission had had something to do with dollar funds and that they were trying to do something to balance Aus tralia-New Zealand trade—New Zealand had a £lO million deficit last year.
Both countries are of the opinion also, that “inevitably New Zealand and Aus tralia must take the lead for the British Commonwealth in the Pacific.”
