Gas

Today’s announcement highlights that Labor has failed to properly manage the gas rollout in Tasmania.

We have serious concerns about the lack of strategic planning and the lack of detail as to how even this belated announcement might help other customers, including households, access gas.

A Hodgman Liberal Government will establish Infrastructure Tasmania to make sure that the strategic, long-term infrastructure needs of Tasmanians, such as gas, don’t fall off the agenda and are properly planned for.
