Footnotes 1 . For an account of the formation of the reconstruction division see S. J. Butlin and C. B. Schedvin, War Economy 1942–1945 (Canberra, 1977), 626. The minutes of the Interdepartmental Advisory Committee on Reconstruction, Meeting, Parliament House, 14 March 1941, are in Australian Archives (AA), CP43/1 bundle 7 item 1943/553.

Got memoranda from CS1R; referred industrial investigation to Tariff Board; recommended a Rural Reconstruction Commission. Meets in Canberra.' Memorandum undated but probably written in mid‐1942. H.
