NSW Liberal/Nationals Coalition
Peter Debnam/Andrew Stoner
NSW Liberal Leader Peter Debnam and NSW Leader of The Nationals Andrew Stoner today signed a Coalition agreement for the March 2007 Election.
"Andrew and I are very pleased to sign this agreement which confirms our strong Liberal/Nationals Coalition team for the March 2007 Election," Mr Debnam said.
"NSW desperately needs a change after 12 years of a Labor Government which has not served the people of NSW," he said.
"This Coalition agreement will underpin our efforts to highlight the failure of the Labor Government over the last 12 years and lays the foundation for a strong alternative government," he said.
ReplyDeleteThe Coalition agreement:
• Identifies whether a Liberal or Nationals candidate will run in each electorate across the State (see attached for complete list);
• Confirms a joint Upper House ticket;
• Details positions on the Upper House ticket as follows: 1 Liberal; 2 Nationals; 3 Liberal; 4 Liberal; 5 Nationals; 6 Liberal; 7 Liberal; 8 Nationals; 9 Liberal; 10 Liberal; 11 Nationals; 12 Liberal; 13 Liberal; 14 Liberal; 15 Nationals.
"Andrew and I want to thank everyone involved in both parties for the successful outcome," Mr Debnam said.
Mr Stoner said the Liberal/Nationals would continue to highlight the Iemma Labor Government's failures across all the portfolios from infrastructure to hospitals, public transport, financial management, schools, and policing.
"Not only did this Labor Government waste extraordinary tax revenue over 12 years, it's now sending NSW into massive debt. The biggest problem in NSW is that Morris Iemma and Labor are still in denial," he said.
Mr Debnam said the people of NSW need hope that this State can be turned around to become the leading State in Australia.
"We need to lift the standards in public administration and restore NSW to leading the country once again. The people of NSW are looking for solutions to the State's problems not just attempts to fix the headlines.
"The only way to get positive change in NSW is to change the State government," Mr Debnam said.
