Victoria given $6.2B in the 2019 federal budget
The 2019-2020 Federal budget infrastructure projects have made big headlines over the last week and when you give the Victorian construction industry $6.2B, within the 2019-2020 Federal budget for infrastructure spending you will get our attention.
Whilst Bill shorten was driving around in an electric Hyundai calling for policy the normal person needs to learn. The Liberal government where planning to release what we all know retains employment, creates jobs and a gives us a stable economy, that is construction; and it’s clear the 2019-2020 Federal budget infrastructure projects are welcomed by voters and everyone understands this will boost our economy, construction industry and the construction recruitment alike.
2019-2020 Federal budget infrastructure projects:
