The paper considers the electrical manufacturing industry, its contribution in terms of production, exports and employment, and it comments on the use the industry is making of the resources at its disposal; the paper is in three main parts. The first outlines the general economic background and the position occupied by the industry in the general pattern of trade. The second refers to general problems affecting production, research and export, and comments on the objectives towards which the industry is progressing. The third deals with the strategy for achieving these objectives and for making the best use of the resources at the disposal of the industry.
