We will closely examine what Graeme Sturges has announced today to see whether it delivers the reliability of service which Flinders Island residents deserve.
What we do know for certain is that the past two-weeks of the Flinders Island shipping debacle proves once again that Labor simply isn’t running the State properly.
The State Government’s job is to ensure this essential service is reliable – and they have failed to do that.
A competent government and Minister would have seen this problem before it arose, and acted to prevent it.
A competent government and Minister would have put in place a comprehensive back-up plan in the case of the current service failing, for whatever reason.
Tasmanians need a government with leadership and vision, and a government who will run the state properly – and that clearly isn’t Labor.
