[Bennett anti-inflation]

News item. Pricing decisions for public operations and services need to be re-examined by an independent body or agency to ensure that price increases are carefully reviewed before implementation. Compensation for employees in the public sector: (1) Wages (like prices) need to be re-examined; (2) There should be better and more equitable pay levels; (3) Bargaining decisions must be compatible with those in the private sector; (4) Aim for a long-range goal where there would be a fairer bargaining system for public service. Premier Bennett says that there is no intention to "downgrade public services or to cut wages." On the review of the wage structure, he states that there must be "responsible retraint" regarding wages in the public sector.
