2012 06 07 Greg Barber Budget Speech.mov
Budget-in-reply speech: Parliamentary Leader of the Victorian Greens, Greg Barber outlines his response to the 2012/13 Victorian Budget.
This budget has seen TAFE stripped of funding, no provision for bicycle infrastructure and little genuine investment in public transport while supporting an increase in budget for massive roads projects and private prisons. While the environment has no wins, coal and inefficient or energy intensive industry has no cutbacks in subsidies. This is an unbalanced budget, slanted for polluting and persecuting businesses at the expense of the community and environment.
