The Debate

What different members said when this bill was debated:

Damien Tudehope LIB

“In addition to the Treasurer being eloquent in the other place, this morning the Leader of the Opposition in the other place was eloquent, and he provided a complete and utter rebuttal and a devastating appraisal of the Treasurer’s budget, as well as an alternative to the people of New South Wales. The Government has no vision, no plan and no policies to advance the interests of the people.”

“This budget, and in particular the new so-called Investment Delivery Authority, is indicative of the monstrous problem of modern government. A successful, growing, productive market economy requires deregulation, lower taxes and a reduced role for government. That rewards enterprise, initiative and innovation.”

“On behalf of The Greens, and as our Treasury spokesperson, I contribute to debate on the Appropriation Bill 2025 and cognate bills. The third budget delivered by this Minns Labor Government has been described as a lot of things so far, and "boring" is the one that has possibly been used—and that I have heard—the most. But "boring" actually gives it far too much credit.”

“In case the events of the past few weeks were not proof enough, this budget confirms it: The Minns Labor Government does not give a damn about animals. It is painfully clear that it has no intention of honouring its election commitments on animal welfare. Instead, this Government seems to be pursuing an agenda that enables and supports animal cruelty.”

“I commend the bills to the House.”
