ADDENDUM TO THE REPORT

FROM SENATOR ANDREW MURRAY AUSTRALIAN DEMOCRATS

REPORT ON THE BREW REPORT AND REPORT ON THE CONTINUING ROLE OF THE COMMONWEALTH IN THE AUSTRALIAN RAIL INDUSTRY MAY 1997

I find the report helpful in both its analysis and its recommendations, and support most of these.

However, I am of the opinion that the available evidence of the Committee, and from the Brew Report to the Government, is insufficient to arrive at final recommendations which will determine the rail industry of the future.

Accordingly, the Australian Democrats will be pursuing further recommendations, solutions and suggestions in the debates on the enabling legislation.

Senator Andrew Murray
