'I am greatly disturbed by report of resumption of Japanese whaling at the very moment when the Australian Government is proposing to embark upon the whaling venture.'
Cabinet had decided on 18 January to sponsor reestablishment of an Australian whaling industry and to ratify the international Agreement on Whaling of 1937 and the Protocols of 1938 and 1945, and had appointed a subcommittee to consider the extent of the Commonwealth Govt's role in Antarctic whaling.
