Treasurer Scott Morrison will discuss competition policy and housing when he meets his state and territory counterparts on Friday.

He said he wants to see greater competition in the economy but this can only be done by sitting down with the states and discussing the pending Harper review into competition.

"I think we need to embrace the spirit of this report and see what we can do collectively, because this is not just about the commonwealth," he told reporters in Canberra on Tuesday.
