ENABLING ECONOMIC ENVIRONMENT:
Working Paper No. 1 listed
four topics in this priority area: (1) growth with social justice;
(2) social dimensions of macroeconomic adjustments; (3) resolving
the external debt; and (4) adaptation to a changing global economic
environment. During a very brief discussion on this topic,
Australia suggested five themes to be addressed within the context
of the enabling economic environment: the importance of favorable
trade and financial environments; the importance of national
macro-economic policies; the need to revise national public
expenditure priorities; the role of the taxation system; and
national accounting procedures that take into account environmental
and human impacts.
