Back to EpisodesSA Parties Clash Over Election Costings
Description
South Australias major parties unveil election costings ahead of the vote, with Liberals claiming their promises are fully funded and will even boost the surplus, while Labor disputes the real cost could reach five point eight billion dollars. Both sides plan to trim public sector jobs, but without impacting frontline services. Treasurer Tom Koutsantonis argues no savings can cover such a large gap without tax increases, while Shadow Treasurer Ben Hood insists Labors plans are fully costed and reviewed independently. One Nation skips formal costings, focusing on cuts to waste and scrapping the state Voice to Parliament, while the Greens propose thirteen point eight billion dollars in spending, funded by mining royalties, bank levies, and taxes on empty homes.
