WILKIE CALLS ON PM TO RULE OUT HOBART PUBLIC SERVICE JOB CUTS
The Independent Member for Denison, Andrew Wilkie, will ask the Prime Minister the following in Question Time today:
“Public service efficiency dividend is just budget-speak for job cuts. They’re regrettable at any time, and even more so in places like Hobart where local economies are smaller and the effect of job losses greater.
“Considering this, do you rule out further public service job cuts in Hobart?
“Or have you abandoned the Government’s 2014 plan to shift public service jobs from Canberra to places like Hobart?”
Andrew Wilkie, Independent MP for Denison
