Rockliff-Abetz all spin, no detail on Building Tasmania

Rockliff-Abetz all spin, no detail on Building Tasmania

More than a month after the Rockliff-Abetz Government announced they were cutting 250 jobs and creating Building Tasmania – there’s still zero detail about how it will deliver the housing Tasmanians desperately need.

That’s because after 13 years of Liberal waste, their only plan is to slash jobs and services to pay for it.

If this was a serious plan, Premier Rockliff and Eric Abetz would be able to explain how it will work and have modelling to prove it. But they can’t.

Eric Abetz has made it crystal clear he’s on the hunt for cuts in the budget, and public sector workers will be rightly worried about what it means for their jobs.

Tasmanians need homes, and the Liberal Government still can’t explain how cutting 250 jobs will deliver them.
