Hypocrisy from the Treasurer

It is the height of hypocrisy for Michael Aird to claim the Liberals are being irresponsible in their calls for information regarding the concerning state of Tasmania's energy industry.

How dare the Treasurer call the State Liberals irresponsible when it has been the Labor Government in power for 12 years managing these energy businesses that have lead to the current predicament.

It is the Labor Government's lack of financial acumen and their failure to develop a long term strategy for our energy businesses that is irresponsible and Mr Aird knows this only too well.
