The Independent Member for Denison, Andrew Wilkie, will ask the Prime Minister the following in Question Time today.
“Prime Minister, in a dreadful development Cadbury is sacking 50 workers at its Claremont factory.
“The simple fact is that the factory would not be down-sizing if the Coalition Government had delivered on its 2013 election promise to inject $16m of economic stimulus into the northern suburbs of Hobart, through enhancements to the factory.
“Instead, when Cadbury didn’t go ahead with a new visitor centre, the Government took the money from the battlers in my electorate and used it elsewhere as a political slush fund.
“Prime Minister, what will you do to return that stimulus money to Denison?
“What will you do to help the 50 sacked workers?”
WHEN: Approximately 2:15pm TODAY 17 August
WHERE: House of Representatives (watch live at http://www.aph.gov.au/News_and_Events/Watch_Parliament)
