Following our first very successful policy in the pub event (thank you Jim Minifie) please put in your diaries the next event. Anthea Harris, CEO of the Climate Change Authority, will present Climate Change Policy in Australia. Please note that while we generally propose to hold these events on the third Wednesday of each month the next event will be on Tuesday 19 August. Following feedback from a number of you we propose to make it 5.30 rather than 5.15 at the Elephant and the Wheelbarrow in Bourke Street. To get an idea about numbers please indicate (via email to joe.dimasi@monash.edu) if you can make it and look forward to seeing you there. Joe Dimasi Professorial Fellow Department of Economics Monash University     POLICY IN THE PUB The Economic Society is setting up a new event Policy in the Pub. We are hoping to meet monthly in a friendly and informal environment and discuss some of the significant policy issues and challenges that are around. All Society members are welcome to come along.
