In addition to the publication of the series of research studies and submissions to official inquiries undertaken by the New Zealand Business Roundtable, its analysis and views on a number of issues have been presented in speeches, papers and articles given by representatives of the organisation.

This volume is a collection of such material on a range of economic and social policy issues. Topics covered include the economy, privatisation, education, retirement income support, occupational safety and health, the labour market, employment equity and commercial law. There is also an address which describes the Business Roundtable and its aim and interests.
