520			_aLong-range economic forecasts have two main purposes. The first is to bring out the implications of differing rates of growth, and so provide guidance about the feasibility of a higher rate of growth, and what must be done to attain it. The second is to provide a background for policy in fields where present decisions have implications which run far into the future. Mr. Beckerman and his associates have attempted both tasks. They build up a detailed picture of the structure of the economy that is likely to emerge if the economy attains the postulated rate of growth, and they analyse in detail the prospects for energy, transport, housing, health and welfare, and education, the sectors where indivisibilities, long-lived specific assets, and long training periods make long-range forecasts essential in the formulation of policy.
