Construction and inflation / by George V. Haythorne, Prices and Incomes Commission.: RG33-19/1973E-PDF
"This study of the construction industry in Canada evolved as the Prices and Incomes Commission pursued its two principal tasks. Set out in the Order in Council appointing the Commission in June 1969, these tasks were to inquire into "the causes, processes and consequences of inflation"; and to inform those currently involved in price and income decisions, the general public and the Government on "how price stability may best be achieved". The study consists mainly of background papers, research findings and proposals for possible future action to achieve greater stability in the construction industry prepared by one of the Commissioners who undertook a particular responsibility in this area"--Preface, page iii.
