Wednesday 17 September - The Australian Computer Society (ACS) has welcomed
the appointment of Senator Richard Alston as Minister for the Information
Economy. ACS President, Tom Worthington, said the appointment should give 
the Information Industries a higher priority, but he cautioned that 
failing to integrate all IT-related issues within a single Department 
could hamper the Government's achievements in this sector.
