May Report Review

May Report a Damning Indictment of Two Airline Policy

After almost two years in the making, the Federal Government officially released during early January the results of the May Inquiry.

Ansett has always religiously defended the Two Airline Policy but now has changed course to embrace full deregulation, something that it would revel in due to its large established network and financial resource base. One reason why Ansett is preferring total deregulation though is that it fears the potential power that a new Regulatory Committee would have in approving aircraft imports under partial deregulation.

More properly titled, the Independent Review of Economic Regulation of Domestic Aviation, and headed by Mr Thomas May, a distinguished businessman with a vast working knowledge of the transport industry, the Report offers an array of alternatives to what is presently known as the Two Airline Policy (TAP).
