ELECTED MEMBERS: THEIR COMMITMENT TO YOUR PUBLIC SERVICES
In the months before the State Election all candidates were sent a copy of our Public Services Policy and a request for their personal commitment to this policy which guarantees the services Tasmanians and their families rely on. Your candidates' individual responses, or lack thereof, are noted below. Now they are your elected Members it's crucial to hold them to any commitment they made.

"The Tasmanian Labor Party supports the public sector. We have a proud track record of investment in public services, support for public servants, as well as ensuring the provision of quality public services to the community. As a long term member of Parliament I have come to value and appreciate the commitment of the Tasmanian Public Service. I have always given them my 100% support and will continue to do so" |

"I am very happy to support the policy document developed by the CPSU. I am particularly supportive of the principle to provide services to all Tasmanians, no matter where they live, and will do what I can if elected to support the Public Sector to do this. As someone who has worked in the Public Sector for more than four years now you can be assured of my support as I have seen and felt first hand the effectiveness of the CPSU standing up for our rights at work" [Feb 9 email] |
