Abstract

The subject of forecasting has continued to be a pre‐occupation of planners, particularly as the apparent reliability of forecasts in recent years has declined. The author of this article suggests that better forecasts can be made if certain precautions are observed. Readers seeking more information on forecasting methods may wish to consult a Planning Review series by Chambers and Mullick (March 1975, July 1975, September 1975, and January 1976).
