Our Plan
The Tasmanian Liberal Government has a Strong Plan for Tasmania’s future.
Tasmania has come a long way under the last 10 years under Liberal Governments led by Will Hodgman, Peter Gutwein and Jeremy Rockliff.
For example, we have gone from the worst-performing state under the Labor-Green minority Government, to the best-performing state on most economic measures.
We have delivered historically low unemployment and more than 50,000 new jobs have been created on our watch.
Construction of the new Bridgewater Bridge is underway, and the first of two new Spirit of Tasmania ferries will soon sail into Devonport.
And we’ve done all this – and much more – while maintaining the lowest debt of all the states, and without introducing any new taxes.
But we understand that, like the rest of Australia, we too are facing some serious challenges right now.
We’ve delivered an additional 298 hospital beds and employed an extra 2,500 health professionals including 1,390 nurses – but there’s more work to do and our health system still needs to do better.
Our energy prices are already among the lowest in the country, and our new Renewable Energy Dividend is driving bills lower – but we know we need to do more to support those struggling with the cost of living challenge.
And while we’re building a record number of new houses – 3,000 delivered in the last four years – for many Tasmanians, their first home lies beyond reach, and rental prices are still too high.
That’s why we’ve developed a Strong Plan for Tasmania’s future to address these issues – our Tasmania 2030 Plan.
It’s a Strong Plan which is all about taking more action on the issues affecting us most right now, such as cost of living, health, and housing.
And importantly we are taking action straight away, with the Liberal government already delivering key parts of the Plan, so you can feel the benefits sooner.
