Building and Transforming Canberra

The first Budget of this parliamentary term is focussed on building a stronger economy and creating opportunity and fairness for all Canberrans.

The Budget delivers important social reforms and major infrastructure projects.

And it begins the transformation of our city to meet the challenges of our second century.

Mr Smyth interjecting—

MR BARR: The Centenary of Canberra in 2013 is an opportunity to reflect on our journey to date and to set the direction for our city for the years to come.

In this Budget the Gallagher Government begins implementing a plan for the transformation and future growth of Canberra—

Mr Smyth interjecting—

MADAM SPEAKER: Mr Smyth, you are on a warning.

MR BARR: growth that is sustainable, and continues to deliver a high quality of life and opportunity for all.

Canberra is a great place to live, work, study and do business. The fundamentals of our economy are strong. And Canberrans are on average the healthiest, best paid and best educated people in Australia.
