Members Statement - School Funding Broken Promises

MEMBERS STATEMENT
‘SCHOOL FUNDING BROKEN PROMISES.’
Thursday, 30 May 2024.
Mr NEWBURY (Brighton) (9:53):
Before the last election the Labor Party promised two schools in my community funding upgrades.
These promises of $9.8 million for Hampton Primary School and $11.7 million for Gardenvale Primary School were ironclad commitments matched by the Liberal Party.
Yet after the election Labor broke their promises and have refused to provide the money in the Budget.
Only a pack of lying cheats would rip off children, and that is what the Labor Party is – a pack of lying cheats.
