Same old story: More slogans and still no substance from Newman
Deputy Premier Andrew Fraser said Campbell Newman's so-called
property and construction strategy has fallen flat, with the LNP
Leader again unable to explain the detail around how he'll pay
for his pre-election spending spree.
"Campbell Newman's shown today that the only property development
he takes a keen interest in is his own family's" Mr Fraser
said.
"You can't believe him when he says he didn't know anything about
his wife's numerous multi-million dollar property dealings, just
like you can't believe him on any of the pre-election stunts he's
made.
"Again, he talked up his property policy announcement well before
today, only to re-announce an unfunded promise Tim Nicholls made
last June and a pledge to create a new committee.
"He needs to explain where the $940 million is coming from for
his stamp duty promise. Until then it simply cannot be
believed.
"No detail and no substance - just more motherhood statements
with no detail and no costings.
"The only real initiative was overruling Tim Nicholls to pledge
support for the Bligh Government's Building Boost - a policy
strongly supported by industry but up until now dismissed by the
LNP.
"Mr Newman should tell Queenslanders which projects he'll cut and
which jobs he'll slash to pay for his $940 million stamp duty
promise.
"Campbell Newman declared his own campaign underway a week and a
half ago. When is he going to stop the stunts and come clean with
the people of Queensland?
"So far it's a lot of no can do."
Deputy Premier, Treasurer and Minister for State
Development and Trade
The Honourable Andrew Fraser
