Treaty Commission Funded in State Budget
Description
Tomorrow’s state budget drops big news: $8.5 million to launch a Treaty Commission led by Aboriginal leaders, aiming to recognize history and pave the way for a formal Treaty with Aboriginal South Australians. Amid a $50 billion debt load from vital infrastructure like the Torrens to Darlington upgrade and the new Women’s and Children’s Hospital, the Treasurer insists the state’s economy is strong—with high growth, near full employment, and a 15% surge in private sector investment—making debt manageable. The budget also includes a hiring freeze for non-frontline public sector roles to boost private investment and participation rates. Despite global headwinds, the Treasurer remains upbeat, citing rising property values and steady private sector growth as signs the economy’s still climbing.
