The Property Council of Tasmania’s push poll appears to have been designed to back up the State Government takeover of TasWater.
The Federal Budget included significant infrastructure funding, with billions of dollars committed for works around the country - but not Tasmania.
The Liberals' highly political plan to takeover TasWater has received another blow today, with the high cost Tasmanians will pay for the Liberals' plan exposed.
Tasmania’s ailing water and sewerage infrastructure needs to be dealt with as a matter of urgency.
After three years of neglect, the Liberals are now making daily media statements congratulating themselves on their “plan”.
With the state election in sight, less than a fortnight ago you issued a threat to councils that the state would take over TasWater if it did not lift its game.
Today's comments from TasWater confirm the Liberals' cynical politicking on the State's water and sewerage infrastructure.
Minister Gutwein's options to councils for the funding of water and sewerage upgrades are cynical and politically motivated.
The State's ailing water and sewerage infrastructure needs real action and leadership to clean up the mess, not just talk and blame-shifting.
