    Here the Liberals are again playing politics again. If a State Liberal Government had made this announcement Sarah Henderson would have been the first cheer leader and no doubt organising a photo shoot. Instead, she is trying to derail, pardon the pun, the plan by claiming there is no plan. The money is owed to Victoria from the Federal Coalition Government but they continue to put barriers up to prevent needed infrastructure in our State.
    Funny how the State Liberal Government in NSW is given Federal funding, few questions asked.
    It’s time Sarah Henderson and her Coalition mates in Canberra showed some commonsense and realised that infrastructure improvements in Victoria shouldn’t be used as a political football just because the Victorian electorate voted for the Labor Party.
