In 1900 when Australia adopted a federal constitution, there was a history of economic and political independence in the federating colonies. Australia's founding fathers, while trained in the working of British Westminster model, were quite attracted to the American federal model. Thus six self- governing British colonies, while becoming constituent states of the federal system, ensured that the rights of the states would not be subordinated to the central power and there was equal representation in the senate. Accordingly, the constitution provided that the Commonwealth would have only such powers as were expressively conferred upon it, leaving all the residual powers within the exclusive authority of the states. However, from the very beginning there emerged a national sentiment for strengthening and augmenting the central government powers. There came up a gradual expansion of the central government. This was achieved partly by constitutional amendments, partially by High Courts interpretations and to some extent by the consent of states in a formal manner during the two World Wars.

Policy imperatives and government support could ensure three-fold volume growth by 2020, which would make China half of this developing global market. New entrants are proliferating, with few clear winners as yet, but we conclude that Yutong and BYD have the scale of NEV sales today to support Buy ratings. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Deutsche Bank AG/Hong Kong Deutsche Bank does and seeks to do business with companies covered in its research reports.
