Abstract

The import substitution effort will have to be intensified, pacticuiarly in capital goods and intermediate products, like base metals. chemicals, petroleum products and non-metallic minerals ... The scarcity price of foreign exchange should be appropriately reflected to the eCGn:>my so that there is an incentive to use less foreign exchange and more domestic resources. This will call for a revision in the present tariff policy
