continued decline in the rate but rather a levelling off to a rate which, although consider-
ably less than that of the 1950's, will still allow for a fairly healthy growth when measured
in terms of real income per capital.

 In order to obtain a full and comprehensive picture of growth factors and their effects
on the economy as a whole a series of inter-industry tables have been developed (Tables
3e. i-iv). These are in respect of the years 1958 (base year), 1965, 1970 and 1975.
The choice of the base year rested solely on the availability of up-to-date. It is as-
sumed in the projections that the price level of 1958 continues. The sectoral breakdown
was made with several considerations in mind: a) the type of transaction; business,
government, households and rest of the world must be separate sectors since their trans-
actions are of a different nature; b) industries mainly exporting were kept separate;
c) industries having reliable information were, when possible, kept separate from those
having unreliable information; and d) industries having opposite trends were not put in
the same sectors when this could be avoided.

 Each sector was tackled individually. Past trends were examined. Leading authorities
in business, marketing boards, mining and sugar companies, and government were inter-
viewed, and information was gathered on investment plans and on their general assess-
ment of the future of these industries. On the basis of all these enquiries, growth rates
were estimated for each sector, but these were not necessarily the same annual average
growth rate over the whole period 1965-75.

 There were of course some conflicting items when the material was brought together
to form a matrix. To solve these, orders of determination in the economy were consi-
dered. Export sectors are considered the most autonomous, ;hen production sectors and
finally government sectors. In the case of conflict between production sectors for
instance, whether purchases of feeding stuff from the domestic agriculture sector by the
livestock and fishing sector should move at the latter or former sector's projected growth
rates a decision had to be taken as to whether or not the supply-elasticity in the supply-
ing sector is great enough to meet the expanded demand. This is of course a first approx-
imation. It enables us to enter somewhere into the spiral of economic activity. Later
adjustments could be made as better information becomes available.

 According to different growth assumptions, different levels of income could be reached;
 but we have projected only one set of matrices. Given our actual information, given that
 there would be no violent changes in industrial structure, and given that there is to be no
 balance of payments problem or excessive foreign borrowing, income growth can only
 change marginally from that predicted. The export targets for bauxite and sugar may be
 considered too high but this is probably the only sizable variation we can allow for,
 given the above assumptions. The summary inter-industry table (Table 3f) is presented
 as it enables rough approximations to be made on the effect of any number of alternative
 assumptions.

 From the main tables we derive gross domestic product, national expenditure, gross
 national product and national income (Table 3a). We have put these on a per capital basis
 and have used gross national product per head as our income indicator which is applied in
 the total demand projections. We feel that in a country where transfer receipts such as
 overseas remittances are important household expenditure per head would be a more
