STATE BUDGET - SA ON TRACK
 

 

 

22 September 2006

 

SA Unions says today's state budget shows the Rann Labor government is on track to keeping its election promises.

 

SA Unions Secretary, Janet Giles described it as a solid performance.

 

"This is a budget that represents Labor values, by boosting important areas including health and education."

 

"It delivers the services that working people need", she says.

 

"We also welcome the increased investment in skills training as critical for our future."

 

"Furthermore, we are pleased to see that the government has listened to our call for a program of prudent borrowing to fund infrastructure development.  This good debt will boost jobs and economic growth."

 

"However, we are seeking additional information about the government's plans to enter into Public Private Partnerships, to ensure South Australia does not become embroiled in costly disasters as have occurred interstate and overseas", Ms Giles says.
