Extractions: THE FURNITURE INDUSTRY IN AUSTRALIA AND NEW ZEALAND SUMMARY: Australia and New Zealand have a combined furniture production of about US$ 3,461 million, with Australia being by far the major furniture producer and furniture consumer in the area. In the past decade the Australian furniture industry has been affected by the reduced level of domestic demand and forecasts for the next years only show a 0.5% growth for the furniture market. The Australian furniture industry will thus have to face a series of challenges in the near future: global competition is increasing and the furniture sector is not very export-oriented and extremely fragmented. This report provides trends in furniture production, furniture consumption, furniture distribution in Australia and New Zealand. Imports and exports of furniture are analysed as well as furniture distribution systems and furniture prices. Data on furniture producers and distributors are provided for both countries. Household furniture accounts for 60% of Australian furniture supply, with office furniture and contract accounting for the remaining 40%. Furniture production is broken down by product (kitchen furniture, bedrooms, other home furniture, office furniture, contract furniture) and by state. Data on the most representative Australian and New Zealand furniture manufacturers are available (turnover, employees, segment of activity).

The establishment of FSANZ, which has responsibility for developing food standards for both Australia and New Zealand, raises a number of issues relating to trans-Tasman co-ordination and operational relationships. At present, the two countries have no particular requirement to consult with each other on Codex issues. In practice however, they have had close co-operation on a wide range of Codex issues, and have worked closely in the Commission and in the Executive Committee.

Extractions: In Article 11 of the CER Agreement, the Australian Commonwealth Government and the New Zealand Government agreed that the maintenance of domestic purchasing preferences was inconsistent with the objectives of CER, and agreed to treat Australian and New Zealand content equally in their government purchasing. Subsequently, the Australian State and Territory Governments joined with the Commonwealth and New Zealand in the Australia New Zealand Government Procurement Agreement (ANZGPA). Under the ANZGPA, the Australian (Commonwealth, State and Territory) and New Zealand Governments are committed to giving Australian and New Zealand goods, services and suppliers equal treatment and opportunity to compete on the basis of value for money in a "single trans-Tasman government procurement market". New Zealand's CER/ANZGPA commitments are consistent with the Government's globally non-preferential procurement policy. Some Australian jurisdictions maintain preference margins which may be applied against third country suppliers, but not New Zealand suppliers.

Extractions: MINISTER FOR FOREIGN AFFAIRS, AUSTRALIA FA66 - 14 May 2004 I will visit New Zealand 14-16 May to attend the inaugural meeting of the Australia-New Zealand Leadership Forum in Wellington. I announced the formation of the Leadership Forum last December in a joint statement with New Zealand Foreign Minister Phil Goff. The forum aims to ensure that the already close and dynamic relationship between the two countries continues to flourish. It will enable robust discussion of new approaches to the many challenges we both face. More than 30 prominent Australians and an equal number of New Zealanders will participate in the forum (complete list below). Those attending will be leaders of business, government, and community sectors with an interest in the bilateral relationship. Margaret Jackson, Chairman of Qantas, and Kerry McDonald, Chairman of the Bank of New Zealand, will co-chair the forum. Daryl Williams, Minister for Communications, Information Technology, and the Arts will also attend. The meeting will examine and debate aspects of economic, defence, political and social ties between Australia and New Zealand. Discussion will be held under Chatham House rules. I hope the occasion will help to focus on the strength of the relationship, and to underline that both countries have much to gain from continuing our already strong and co-operative links.
