8 The authors give currency to the widely-held but erroneous belief that these provisions were introduced in response to a boycott of Dunlop products announced by Mr R. J. A. Hawke (on 17 February 1971) on behalf of the Australian Council of Trade Unions and the Melbourne retail store of which it was part-owner. In fact, early in February 1971 the Attorney-General had announced the forthcoming introduction of legislation prohibiting R.P.M. This followed the completion of a study of this subject, among others, which he had commissioned in August 1970. The credit for the R.P.M. provisions thus belongs to Mr T. E. F. Hughes, Q.C., who was Federal Attorney-General at the time.
