Rail is the big winner in Budget 2017
Announcement posted by Seftons 10 May 2017
Farmers and regional Australia have been labelled as winners in the 2017-18 Federal Budget.
I attended the CropLife Agricultural Industry Federal Budget Breakfast in Canberra this morning where Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Agriculture and Water Resources Barnaby Joyce praised his Government’s vision for building the Inland Rail. “No other government was ever going to build the inland rail – we will” he said.
Minister Joyce referred to the Inland Rail as “the corridor of commerce” and is confident it will invigorate the regional cities of Albury/Wodonga, Dubbo and Toowoomba, and towns like Narrabri and Moree, as well as taking bulk produce off the road.
Please find attached a media release on the budget and what it means for Agriculture and Regional Australia.
For more information or to seek comment on the budget please don't hesitate to contact me on 0428 425 556 or 02 6766 5222.
Warm regards,
