It has been an absolutely 26 00:01:01,040 --> 00:01:01,920 Speaker 3: huge week. 27 00:01:02,240 --> 00:01:02,480 Speaker 6: We know. 28 00:01:02,560 --> 00:01:05,320 Speaker 1: The Northern Territory budget was handed down earlier in the 29 00:01:05,319 --> 00:01:07,360 Speaker 1: week by the Chief Minister, Evil Lawler. 30 00:01:07,760 --> 00:01:09,920 Speaker 3: It's been described as a pre election. 31 00:01:09,920 --> 00:01:13,640 Speaker 1: Big spending budget, one which is really aimed at winning 32 00:01:13,720 --> 00:01:16,000 Speaker 1: votes and trying to win back the confidence of the 33 00:01:16,040 --> 00:01:19,039 Speaker 1: people when it comes to crime and law and order. 34 00:01:19,360 --> 00:01:22,119 Speaker 1: Delivering the budget in Parliament, the Chief Minister said it's 35 00:01:22,160 --> 00:01:25,759 Speaker 1: a common sense budget, a budget that acknowledges our two 36 00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:30,720 Speaker 1: highest priorities, keeping Territorians safe and making sure Territorians have 37 00:01:30,800 --> 00:01:34,560 Speaker 1: the skills to achieve and enjoy the best work life 38 00:01:34,600 --> 00:01:37,240 Speaker 1: balance that Australia has to offer. 39 00:01:37,640 --> 00:01:39,480 Speaker 3: But I tell you what, it comes at a price. 40 00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:42,360 Speaker 1: Territorians are going to be paying almost twice as much 41 00:01:42,440 --> 00:01:45,360 Speaker 1: interest on debt in coming years due to a surge 42 00:01:45,440 --> 00:01:48,760 Speaker 1: in net debt on the back of record government spending, 43 00:01:49,040 --> 00:01:53,800 Speaker 1: with debt forecast to hit a historic high of eleven 44 00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:56,880 Speaker 1: billion dollars by the end of the next financial year. 45 00:01:57,680 --> 00:01:59,480 Speaker 1: It's a massive amount of money. I mean, it's hard 46 00:01:59,480 --> 00:02:00,760 Speaker 1: to wrap your head around really. 47 00:02:01,720 --> 00:02:07,800 Speaker 6: Indeed, and I just heard earlier that the way the governments. 48 00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:11,520 Speaker 6: This government is traveling that they will be breaching their 49 00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:15,600 Speaker 6: debt ceiling of fifteen billion dollars almost certainly by twenty thirty. 50 00:02:15,720 --> 00:02:16,960 Speaker 3: So it still exists. 51 00:02:17,360 --> 00:02:18,720 Speaker 4: It does, it's legislated. 52 00:02:18,760 --> 00:02:22,799 Speaker 6: It's in this Fiscal Integrity and Transparency Act two thousand 53 00:02:22,840 --> 00:02:25,919 Speaker 6: and one. It was it was actually legislated at fifteen 54 00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:29,920 Speaker 6: billion dollars and if you look at the forward estimates, 55 00:02:30,600 --> 00:02:32,720 Speaker 6: we come within a whisker of that within the next 56 00:02:32,760 --> 00:02:33,560 Speaker 6: four years. 57 00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:35,560 Speaker 3: Wow, frightening figure. 58 00:02:35,600 --> 00:02:38,359 Speaker 7: I think what was the the interest of payments were 59 00:02:38,520 --> 00:02:42,200 Speaker 7: one point one point three million a day. It's three 60 00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:46,720 Speaker 7: point six increases every day, one point six million dollars. 61 00:02:47,440 --> 00:02:48,440 Speaker 3: G It's a lot of money. 62 00:02:48,440 --> 00:02:51,240 Speaker 1: And look, I understand the argument that money does need 63 00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:53,680 Speaker 1: to be invested into our Northern Territory police. We know 64 00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:56,680 Speaker 1: that money does need to be invested into corrections, into 65 00:02:56,680 --> 00:02:59,040 Speaker 1: a number of portfolios, and that is indeed what we've 66 00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:01,520 Speaker 1: heard from the Northern tierrate government this week. On the 67 00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:04,440 Speaker 1: flip side, we've got the opposition saying that if the 68 00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:07,320 Speaker 1: legislation was different, we wouldn't be in the situation that 69 00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:09,320 Speaker 1: we are right now. When it comes to the issues 70 00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:13,000 Speaker 1: of crime and law and order. Nonetheless, I'm pleased that 71 00:03:13,320 --> 00:03:16,880 Speaker 1: we are finally at a point where the government is 72 00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:19,959 Speaker 1: taking the issue of crime as seriously as it needs 73 00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:23,720 Speaker 1: to be taken. I mean, Chancey, the big question from 74 00:03:23,800 --> 00:03:26,320 Speaker 1: a lot of Territorians is, you know we're spending all 75 00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:29,920 Speaker 1: this additional money on jails and just you know, not 76 00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:32,119 Speaker 1: that long ago your photograph with a shirt on saying 77 00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:33,520 Speaker 1: Jalen is failing. Yeah. 78 00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:36,160 Speaker 5: Look, Katie, I think let's first of all acknowledge this 79 00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:39,960 Speaker 5: is the Treasurer and the Chief as her role being 80 00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:42,880 Speaker 5: the Chief Minister's first budget, it's a common sense budget. 81 00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:44,760 Speaker 8: She's absolutely said. 82 00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:46,720 Speaker 5: And made it very clear that she's investing in those 83 00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:50,600 Speaker 5: core areas that matter to Territorians. And certainly we've seen 84 00:03:50,640 --> 00:03:54,840 Speaker 5: that record investment in the police and certainly standing up 85 00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:57,680 Speaker 5: those additional facilities for women to get women out of 86 00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:01,160 Speaker 5: the current correctional centers, and and that obviously frees up 87 00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:04,640 Speaker 5: more room within those facilities. But you know, let's make 88 00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:08,760 Speaker 5: no mistake as well that the celp Leo Fernocchiaro came 89 00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:11,680 Speaker 5: out with an additional two hundred million dollars worth of 90 00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:14,760 Speaker 5: expenditure over the forward estimates and hasn't said how she 91 00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:16,960 Speaker 5: was going to pay for that, which would be further 92 00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:18,760 Speaker 5: debt if they were elected. 93 00:04:18,839 --> 00:04:20,919 Speaker 1: Yeah, look, I get that, and I totally get the argument, 94 00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:23,240 Speaker 1: and that's been a criticism of the COLP that you 95 00:04:23,240 --> 00:04:25,800 Speaker 1: know that it's big spending from them as well, and 96 00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:27,960 Speaker 1: they've got to be able to outline how that's going 97 00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:30,000 Speaker 1: to be paid off. But the fact is, you guys 98 00:04:30,080 --> 00:04:33,359 Speaker 1: are actually in government right absolutely, and you're at the 99 00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:37,120 Speaker 1: point where you're eleven billion dollars in debt, you know. 100 00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:39,160 Speaker 3: So that's the like, that's the realting. 101 00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:41,960 Speaker 5: You don't most people don't sell their house to pay 102 00:04:41,960 --> 00:04:45,640 Speaker 5: off their mortgage because they don't have a house. 103 00:04:45,839 --> 00:04:48,279 Speaker 1: It's so expensive that they can't afford to pay it 104 00:04:48,320 --> 00:04:52,000 Speaker 1: off and then rely on getting a job that they 105 00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:54,919 Speaker 1: don't quite have yet to be able to pay that mortgage. 106 00:04:55,320 --> 00:04:55,560 Speaker 4: You know. 107 00:04:55,600 --> 00:04:58,920 Speaker 5: The territory obviously has a small population and has a 108 00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:02,680 Speaker 5: high need, so the work needs to continue on multiple levels. 109 00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:06,320 Speaker 5: They work with the Commonwealth around looking at needs based 110 00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:09,960 Speaker 5: funding for particular areas, but it's also about diversifying the 111 00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:14,440 Speaker 5: economy and that's where natural resources like gas, like these 112 00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:18,200 Speaker 5: major projects are critical to bringing in that enownment. 113 00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:20,960 Speaker 1: The government has got a bit of an issue on 114 00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:24,719 Speaker 1: their hands in the sense that previously, you know, you've 115 00:05:24,760 --> 00:05:28,000 Speaker 1: said not too long ago that that you don't support gas. 116 00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:32,360 Speaker 1: I understand as well that one of the one of 117 00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:35,520 Speaker 1: the candidates for Alas Springs had also recently said on 118 00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:38,560 Speaker 1: ABC radio that she didn't support gas. So have we 119 00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:41,520 Speaker 1: got an element within the Labor Party that don't support 120 00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:45,000 Speaker 1: gas all the while it is certainly a revenue source 121 00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:47,520 Speaker 1: that the Northern Territory Chief Ministers relying Adie. 122 00:05:47,560 --> 00:05:49,159 Speaker 8: The Labour Party is a broad church. 123 00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:52,960 Speaker 5: People have views and opinions, but the Territory Labor Government 124 00:05:53,040 --> 00:05:56,440 Speaker 5: is absolutely committed and we're working with the gas industry. 125 00:05:56,480 --> 00:06:01,320 Speaker 5: I know answered questions yesterday from the opposition as a government. 126 00:06:01,360 --> 00:06:05,599 Speaker 5: We're absolutely continuing our investments and working with that industry, 127 00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:08,880 Speaker 5: supporting the growth in that sector because that is revenue 128 00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:13,000 Speaker 5: that can help pay for critical infrastructure in the Northern Territory. 129 00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:14,400 Speaker 3: Can I put it this one? Look? I know that 130 00:06:14,440 --> 00:06:17,240 Speaker 3: you'll say, you know, there's a lot of variables there. 131 00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:18,599 Speaker 3: I'm sure and there is. 132 00:06:18,640 --> 00:06:21,479 Speaker 1: But you know, what would the situation be if we 133 00:06:21,520 --> 00:06:24,240 Speaker 1: went back to Evil Laula not being the Chief finester. 134 00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:26,839 Speaker 1: I mean, would the Labor Caucus and would the Labor 135 00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:29,440 Speaker 1: Cabinet still be supporting and pushing for gas in the 136 00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:31,839 Speaker 1: way that she currently is because she came out, you know, 137 00:06:31,920 --> 00:06:35,159 Speaker 1: sort of a day after becoming the Chief Minister saying 138 00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:37,080 Speaker 1: that she is the one that wants to get this 139 00:06:37,240 --> 00:06:37,599 Speaker 1: going on. 140 00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:40,000 Speaker 8: She's a situation, a huge advocate. 141 00:06:40,040 --> 00:06:43,200 Speaker 5: But remember our government under Michael Gunner, our government under 142 00:06:43,279 --> 00:06:46,440 Speaker 5: Natasha Files has always supported that industry and will. 143 00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:50,560 Speaker 1: Support it into state tracking. 144 00:06:51,040 --> 00:06:53,440 Speaker 5: I don't think that's a fair assessment. I think she 145 00:06:54,800 --> 00:06:57,119 Speaker 5: did her event at the press at the Press Club 146 00:06:58,839 --> 00:07:03,719 Speaker 5: absolutely saying about this industry. The Chief Minister's made it 147 00:07:03,760 --> 00:07:06,640 Speaker 5: really clear and under Chief Minister Lawla will continue to 148 00:07:06,720 --> 00:07:11,840 Speaker 5: insists not under Chief under as a government, our government 149 00:07:11,880 --> 00:07:12,960 Speaker 5: supports that industry. 150 00:07:13,080 --> 00:07:15,160 Speaker 1: Even the other day when we had Well and even 151 00:07:15,200 --> 00:07:17,520 Speaker 1: the other other week when we had Joel Baden, he 152 00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:20,720 Speaker 1: wouldn't say that he personally supported gas. He was saying 153 00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:23,840 Speaker 1: we support gas. I mean, do you personally support gas 154 00:07:23,920 --> 00:07:24,760 Speaker 1: and support fracking? 155 00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:27,960 Speaker 8: Katie?

All right, let's Steve, what do 177 00:08:41,160 --> 00:08:41,599 Speaker 3: you make of it? 178 00:08:41,679 --> 00:08:41,839 Speaker 6: All? 179 00:08:41,960 --> 00:08:44,520 Speaker 1: I mean, look, and we will get to the Celpeace 180 00:08:44,559 --> 00:08:45,600 Speaker 1: budget replied. 181 00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:48,920 Speaker 2: You know, let's get back to the budget. But I 182 00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:51,000 Speaker 2: suppose you know, at one point six million dollars a 183 00:08:51,080 --> 00:08:52,959 Speaker 2: day in interest, you know, we're talking what over what 184 00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:55,920 Speaker 2: We're talking half a billion dollars being wasted on interest 185 00:08:55,920 --> 00:08:58,800 Speaker 2: at the moment. And as Robin said, it's not going 186 00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:01,360 Speaker 2: to be long before we face debt ceiling. But I 187 00:09:01,400 --> 00:09:03,640 Speaker 2: think when you look at the budget overall, there's three 188 00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:06,800 Speaker 2: point four billion dollars worth of revotes in there, So 189 00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:09,600 Speaker 2: that's three point four billion dollars worth of infrastructure that 190 00:09:09,880 --> 00:09:13,319 Speaker 2: hasn't been delivered, not only last year but to previous 191 00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:15,760 Speaker 2: years as well. And I often rattle off for some 192 00:09:15,880 --> 00:09:21,679 Speaker 2: of the ongoing projects in the Barklay that announced over 193 00:09:21,679 --> 00:09:24,120 Speaker 2: the last six seven years, what are you cutting and 194 00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:27,160 Speaker 2: they still haven't been delivered. So here we are constantly 195 00:09:27,240 --> 00:09:29,880 Speaker 2: rolling over money. It's high time that the government got 196 00:09:29,880 --> 00:09:32,360 Speaker 2: on with and delivered some of these projects because what 197 00:09:32,400 --> 00:09:35,880 Speaker 2: we're seeing is a greater debt, nothing to show for it, 198 00:09:36,040 --> 00:09:39,280 Speaker 2: no revenue being generated by this government, and at the 199 00:09:39,320 --> 00:09:40,000 Speaker 2: same time. 200 00:09:39,840 --> 00:09:42,800 Speaker 8: People in the because at the moment. 201 00:09:44,600 --> 00:09:47,880 Speaker 2: Suffering because of the incompetence of this that's just simply 202 00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:52,600 Speaker 2: called infrastructure in the northern we see at the moment, 203 00:09:52,880 --> 00:09:54,840 Speaker 2: we see the moment there is a whole lot of 204 00:09:54,880 --> 00:09:57,000 Speaker 2: smoke and mirrors around the police budget as well. 205 00:09:57,520 --> 00:09:59,720 Speaker 1: Well. The interesting thing at the moment is I actually 206 00:09:59,760 --> 00:10:02,000 Speaker 1: think it's a really interesting tact for the Labour Party 207 00:10:02,040 --> 00:10:04,240 Speaker 1: to now be having a crack still at the colp 208 00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:07,559 Speaker 1: over the spending. When you're in a situation where you're 209 00:10:07,559 --> 00:10:09,640 Speaker 1: eleven billion dollars in dick like that, I think is 210 00:10:09,960 --> 00:10:11,360 Speaker 1: an interesting tac to continue. 211 00:10:11,400 --> 00:10:16,040 Speaker 7: On Tuesday night, we've had even lawl alive on air 212 00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:18,680 Speaker 7: as well, and we asked the Chief Minister where she 213 00:10:18,840 --> 00:10:21,280 Speaker 7: would make her savings measures, because that is a debt 214 00:10:21,360 --> 00:10:24,600 Speaker 7: situation that is not sustainable and is continuing to grow. 215 00:10:24,960 --> 00:10:27,920 Speaker 7: She also couldn't say exactly where it was because a 216 00:10:28,040 --> 00:10:31,320 Speaker 7: we're relying on increased GST funding, which again will make 217 00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:34,880 Speaker 7: up what eighty five percent or whatever the astronomical figure 218 00:10:34,960 --> 00:10:37,760 Speaker 7: is of our budget, plus the major projects which is 219 00:10:38,120 --> 00:10:40,760 Speaker 7: basically solely relying on gas at the moment, Fracking and 220 00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:44,200 Speaker 7: Barossa because the other major projects still haven't got final 221 00:10:44,200 --> 00:10:48,240 Speaker 7: investment decisions. So neither side is saying where they're going 222 00:10:48,280 --> 00:10:48,760 Speaker 7: to make. 223 00:10:48,559 --> 00:10:52,680 Speaker 3: The Neighbor's prepared to the Public Service PA. 224 00:10:53,040 --> 00:10:54,240 Speaker 8: That's not true. 225 00:10:54,760 --> 00:11:01,120 Speaker 5: We have our budget is costed. We've got plenty of 226 00:11:01,200 --> 00:11:05,000 Speaker 5: time to cost ourdle to tell Territorians where they're going 227 00:11:05,040 --> 00:11:07,200 Speaker 5: to play for this additional two hundred million dollars. We 228 00:11:07,280 --> 00:11:09,600 Speaker 5: know that Shane Stone is pulling the strings, and he's 229 00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:12,280 Speaker 5: got a history of singing the strings and the swing 230 00:11:12,400 --> 00:11:22,080 Speaker 5: TI on the What was he doing before with Shane 231 00:11:23,080 --> 00:11:25,440 Speaker 5: doing at the moment, what was he hanging around the 232 00:11:25,440 --> 00:11:29,000 Speaker 5: fifth terrible this week was going? 233 00:11:29,160 --> 00:11:31,040 Speaker 1: And look, I will say because I think it's again 234 00:11:31,080 --> 00:11:32,840 Speaker 1: it's somewhere where Labor is being a bit tricky at 235 00:11:32,880 --> 00:11:34,960 Speaker 1: the moment by saying that that the SEALP is not 236 00:11:35,040 --> 00:11:37,679 Speaker 1: costing their plan because they do have until what day 237 00:11:37,760 --> 00:11:39,360 Speaker 1: is it, Cathleen, it's a little bit later in the 238 00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:40,600 Speaker 1: year to obviously do that. 239 00:11:40,760 --> 00:11:43,200 Speaker 3: It's a couple of days before the problem. 240 00:11:43,520 --> 00:11:45,040 Speaker 2: Look, Katie, I just want to make the point that 241 00:11:45,080 --> 00:11:47,600 Speaker 2: our plan will be fully costed by Treasury. And at 242 00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:50,920 Speaker 2: this stage we've committed to twenty twenty million to the 243 00:11:50,920 --> 00:11:53,560 Speaker 2: Home Start program and we said that there will be 244 00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:57,240 Speaker 2: forty three million dollar cost to the payroll tax. So 245 00:11:57,679 --> 00:11:59,520 Speaker 2: that's all we've announced at this stage. So I'm not 246 00:11:59,559 --> 00:12:01,680 Speaker 2: sure where the Deputy chiefment. 247 00:12:01,360 --> 00:12:05,440 Speaker 8: Is coming from. People, And here we go. We've got 248 00:12:05,480 --> 00:12:06,120 Speaker 8: plenty of time. 249 00:12:06,200 --> 00:12:09,080 Speaker 2: We've got budget estimates coming up just next month. So 250 00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:12,000 Speaker 2: what we'll be doing is scrutinizing what the got on 251 00:12:12,040 --> 00:12:14,400 Speaker 2: offer at the moment. So we're on there every day 252 00:12:14,760 --> 00:12:17,080 Speaker 2: of the budget estimates. But what we will do during 253 00:12:17,120 --> 00:12:20,560 Speaker 2: budget estimates is find out where the waste is. And 254 00:12:20,559 --> 00:12:22,520 Speaker 2: there's been plenty of waste over the years. You've only 255 00:12:22,520 --> 00:12:25,040 Speaker 2: got to look at the boundless possible straight. Fifty million 256 00:12:25,080 --> 00:12:28,280 Speaker 2: dollars wasted on boundless possible over the last six or 257 00:12:28,320 --> 00:12:31,040 Speaker 2: seven years and the last we ever saw of it 258 00:12:31,120 --> 00:12:34,800 Speaker 2: was advertising on a rocket being flown out of Queensland. 259 00:12:34,840 --> 00:12:37,440 Speaker 2: Forty thousand dollars wasted on boundless possible. But here we 260 00:12:37,480 --> 00:12:43,760 Speaker 2: have about savings. Fifty million dollars wasted on boundless possible 261 00:12:43,760 --> 00:12:44,640 Speaker 2: and we've got nothing to show for. 262 00:12:44,720 --> 00:12:48,440 Speaker 1: Look, I will say that hundred people people are quite 263 00:12:48,520 --> 00:12:51,400 Speaker 1: concerned about with the celpay at this point. Is that 264 00:12:52,120 --> 00:12:53,760 Speaker 1: I did think it was really good earlier in the 265 00:12:53,760 --> 00:12:56,760 Speaker 1: week to get a better understanding of really the colp's 266 00:12:56,800 --> 00:13:01,320 Speaker 1: election platform, with Leafcio delivering her replied and obviously the 267 00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:04,360 Speaker 1: Northern Territory Chief Minister delivering the budget, it gave everybody 268 00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:06,320 Speaker 1: a bit of a better understanding I think of the 269 00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:09,080 Speaker 1: election platforms and where that line in the sand has 270 00:13:09,400 --> 00:13:10,920 Speaker 1: realistically now been drawn. 271 00:13:11,600 --> 00:13:14,080 Speaker 3: But the fact is, Steve, you know there are some big. 272 00:13:13,880 --> 00:13:17,440 Speaker 1: Spending items there in that budget reply and the question, 273 00:13:17,760 --> 00:13:19,840 Speaker 1: I mean, the question does still remain, how is it 274 00:13:19,920 --> 00:13:22,520 Speaker 1: going to be afforded when we've got a massive level 275 00:13:22,520 --> 00:13:22,880 Speaker 1: of debt. 276 00:13:23,360 --> 00:13:25,560 Speaker 2: As I said, all of our costings will be costed 277 00:13:25,600 --> 00:13:28,360 Speaker 2: by treasury. We've got, you know, just under one hundred 278 00:13:28,440 --> 00:13:30,920 Speaker 2: days now to the election. As I said, budget estimates 279 00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:32,720 Speaker 2: coming up in June. What we will be doing is 280 00:13:32,760 --> 00:13:35,719 Speaker 2: going through all of these commitments. 281 00:13:35,200 --> 00:13:36,560 Speaker 8: By the Northern Church and government. 282 00:13:36,559 --> 00:13:39,480 Speaker 2: Second, looking at to where money can be better spent. 283 00:13:39,880 --> 00:13:42,400 Speaker 2: And as I said, the classic example over the years 284 00:13:42,440 --> 00:13:44,880 Speaker 2: is you know, we've seen a shade structure on Kavanagh 285 00:13:44,880 --> 00:13:47,240 Speaker 2: Street that costs two point seven million dollars and it's 286 00:13:47,280 --> 00:13:49,200 Speaker 2: costing over one hundred thousand dollars a year just to 287 00:13:49,240 --> 00:13:52,160 Speaker 2: maintain it because they won't change the vines on there. 288 00:13:52,200 --> 00:13:54,160 Speaker 2: So look at all this wastage game. 289 00:13:54,240 --> 00:13:57,559 Speaker 3: To me one from the CLP or change the vines, I. 290 00:13:57,520 --> 00:14:06,240 Speaker 2: Think we probably someone's going to have to at the 291 00:14:06,280 --> 00:14:06,679 Speaker 2: end of the. 292 00:14:06,640 --> 00:14:09,760 Speaker 8: Day to anything. 293 00:14:09,920 --> 00:14:12,160 Speaker 2: What we will be doing is going through all of 294 00:14:12,200 --> 00:14:14,720 Speaker 2: this during estimates. We've got plenty of time. All of 295 00:14:14,760 --> 00:14:19,560 Speaker 2: our election commitments will be fully costed by treasury and 296 00:14:19,600 --> 00:14:21,400 Speaker 2: we'll be happy to release that to publicly. 297 00:14:21,520 --> 00:14:23,000 Speaker 8: Is that a yes or no answer? On the shade 298 00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:27,360 Speaker 8: structure Steve what replacing the vines? Well, I'd love to 299 00:14:27,360 --> 00:14:28,080 Speaker 8: see him replaced. 300 00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:30,160 Speaker 4: I'm saying government, I'll get rid of. 301 00:14:36,000 --> 00:14:40,200 Speaker 2: Maintain, grow some vines because there's none growing on these. 302 00:14:40,120 --> 00:14:42,920 Speaker 8: Lines growing there now. But is that a community not 303 00:14:43,120 --> 00:14:43,640 Speaker 8: very well? 304 00:14:43,720 --> 00:14:49,680 Speaker 3: Unfortunately, get rid of the shade structure. 305 00:14:49,880 --> 00:14:51,120 Speaker 4: Don't worry about the vines. 306 00:14:52,080 --> 00:14:55,280 Speaker 3: What did you make you know you have? You've obviously. 307 00:14:56,320 --> 00:14:57,320 Speaker 8: Changed the whole election. 308 00:15:00,120 --> 00:15:02,200 Speaker 1: What did you make of the budget speech and also 309 00:15:02,200 --> 00:15:04,160 Speaker 1: the budget reply then from the seal pag. 310 00:15:04,080 --> 00:15:06,760 Speaker 6: Well, I thought the budget was really a statement of 311 00:15:06,840 --> 00:15:09,280 Speaker 6: defeat by the government. The fact that there are two 312 00:15:09,600 --> 00:15:16,560 Speaker 6: biggest platforms, biggest points if you like, were around policing 313 00:15:16,680 --> 00:15:21,120 Speaker 6: and prisons, and admission that crime is out of control. 314 00:15:21,480 --> 00:15:23,720 Speaker 6: It doesn't need to be restated. We all know it, 315 00:15:23,760 --> 00:15:27,640 Speaker 6: we experience it. The fact that we had the Minister 316 00:15:27,760 --> 00:15:33,520 Speaker 6: for Police in Parliament yesterday spooking about his astronomical police budget. 317 00:15:33,800 --> 00:15:37,280 Speaker 6: Why because this government's allowed crime to get out of control. 318 00:15:37,400 --> 00:15:40,000 Speaker 6: So I can't say I was impressed by that. And 319 00:15:40,040 --> 00:15:43,360 Speaker 6: in terms of Alice Springs, there really wasn't much to 320 00:15:43,400 --> 00:15:46,720 Speaker 6: get excited about it, or as Steve said, most of 321 00:15:46,760 --> 00:15:50,120 Speaker 6: the infrastructure projects in Alice Springs haven't been delivered by 322 00:15:50,200 --> 00:15:54,920 Speaker 6: this government. They've over promised and underdelivered. And I think 323 00:15:55,520 --> 00:15:58,880 Speaker 6: that's the point that people need to really keep in mind, 324 00:15:59,000 --> 00:16:02,720 Speaker 6: that it's very easy to make promises but almost impossible 325 00:16:02,800 --> 00:16:06,000 Speaker 6: to deliver when those promises are unrealistic. The Order to 326 00:16:06,080 --> 00:16:09,080 Speaker 6: General came out with her report this week. I haven't 327 00:16:09,080 --> 00:16:10,840 Speaker 6: read it, but I was a part of the Public 328 00:16:10,880 --> 00:16:13,760 Speaker 6: Accounts Committee and were briefed on it yesterday, and I've 329 00:16:13,760 --> 00:16:16,760 Speaker 6: heard some snippets from people talking about it. One thing 330 00:16:16,840 --> 00:16:21,040 Speaker 6: that she found pretty well across the areas that she 331 00:16:21,280 --> 00:16:26,479 Speaker 6: ordered is that there isn't a lot of information available 332 00:16:26,880 --> 00:16:31,400 Speaker 6: to measure where the money is going and what's being delivered, 333 00:16:31,440 --> 00:16:34,560 Speaker 6: particularly when it comes to closing the gap strategies within 334 00:16:34,600 --> 00:16:38,200 Speaker 6: the Northern Territory government, and interestingly with the ship lift. 335 00:16:38,240 --> 00:16:41,080 Speaker 6: The order she did of the ship lift, she said 336 00:16:41,080 --> 00:16:44,040 Speaker 6: that normally she doesn't have access to Cabinet papers, but 337 00:16:44,280 --> 00:16:48,760 Speaker 6: normally the information that they preside over is provided to 338 00:16:48,800 --> 00:16:51,560 Speaker 6: her upon request. When it came to the ship lift, 339 00:16:51,560 --> 00:16:54,600 Speaker 6: this government closed down and wouldn't provide her with any 340 00:16:54,640 --> 00:16:58,960 Speaker 6: information which only spells one thing that there's a lot 341 00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:02,440 Speaker 6: of suspicious activity around that a project that hasn't been 342 00:17:02,480 --> 00:17:05,119 Speaker 6: delivered for many, many years. It was announced by the 343 00:17:05,160 --> 00:17:08,560 Speaker 6: former CELP government back in twenty fifteen, and here we 344 00:17:08,600 --> 00:17:11,760 Speaker 6: are in twenty twenty four. This government's closed the book 345 00:17:12,080 --> 00:17:14,600 Speaker 6: to allowing the Order to General to have a look 346 00:17:14,600 --> 00:17:15,560 Speaker 6: at what's been going on. 347 00:17:15,640 --> 00:17:19,720 Speaker 3: Jase, why is it with the shiplifted so policy piece. 348 00:17:19,880 --> 00:17:24,440 Speaker 5: I was obviously something behind something at the CLP committed 349 00:17:24,440 --> 00:17:26,720 Speaker 5: to and they couldn't build. And you know we've obviously 350 00:17:27,359 --> 00:17:31,879 Speaker 5: times month before work is certainly happening in this space 351 00:17:32,600 --> 00:17:38,560 Speaker 5: to open obviously with any type of agreement that there 352 00:17:38,640 --> 00:17:40,960 Speaker 5: are you know, those matters that need to be worked 353 00:17:41,000 --> 00:17:45,199 Speaker 5: through with legal teams, with you know, commercial interests and 354 00:17:45,240 --> 00:17:47,280 Speaker 5: so forth. So you know there is a process that 355 00:17:47,400 --> 00:17:50,199 Speaker 5: is being undertaken and we're going to commit it to 356 00:17:50,240 --> 00:17:52,280 Speaker 5: delivering that project and that's going to happen. 357 00:17:52,280 --> 00:17:54,879 Speaker 1: It is taking an awfully long time, though I guess 358 00:17:54,920 --> 00:18:00,960 Speaker 1: when announced forty times perceptions, I'm not one hundred percent sure, 359 00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:02,520 Speaker 1: But what I do know is it does seem to 360 00:18:02,560 --> 00:18:04,560 Speaker 1: be taking an awfully long time, and I know like 361 00:18:04,600 --> 00:18:08,000 Speaker 1: it is a massive project. I totally understand that, but 362 00:18:08,320 --> 00:18:10,160 Speaker 1: a little bit like when we go back to sort 363 00:18:10,160 --> 00:18:12,280 Speaker 1: of right from the get go, the discussion that we're 364 00:18:12,280 --> 00:18:16,280 Speaker 1: having about the projections in terms of you know, in 365 00:18:16,400 --> 00:18:18,800 Speaker 1: terms of major projects, in terms of bringing that debt 366 00:18:18,880 --> 00:18:20,760 Speaker 1: level down by owned source revenue and. 367 00:18:21,480 --> 00:18:22,679 Speaker 3: Getting projects going. 368 00:18:23,200 --> 00:18:25,560 Speaker 1: It's not a good track record to have for the 369 00:18:25,560 --> 00:18:27,399 Speaker 1: government at this point when you look at some of 370 00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:30,160 Speaker 1: the major projects that we are reliant on, and then 371 00:18:30,160 --> 00:18:31,960 Speaker 1: when you look at the gas and you talk about 372 00:18:31,960 --> 00:18:35,080 Speaker 1: that analogy of having a mortgage on your home and 373 00:18:35,600 --> 00:18:38,119 Speaker 1: having to pay it off and needing that income, you know, 374 00:18:38,480 --> 00:18:41,119 Speaker 1: that analogy being about our level of debt and needing 375 00:18:41,119 --> 00:18:44,840 Speaker 1: that owned source revenue or that income coming in. We 376 00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:49,280 Speaker 1: don't have a great track record right now on delivering 377 00:18:49,280 --> 00:18:51,360 Speaker 1: on major projects in the Northern Territory. 378 00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:55,359 Speaker 5: Look, Katie, every major project is different. There are different 379 00:18:55,359 --> 00:18:59,280 Speaker 5: considerations that you need to take in. There's negotiations and 380 00:18:59,760 --> 00:19:03,679 Speaker 5: work with traditional owner groups, with local councils, with the 381 00:19:03,720 --> 00:19:08,880 Speaker 5: commercial partners, with the industry around using accessing the equipment 382 00:19:08,960 --> 00:19:09,960 Speaker 5: or the infrastructure or. 383 00:19:09,920 --> 00:19:11,000 Speaker 8: The project that it is. 384 00:19:11,080 --> 00:19:14,240 Speaker 5: So every project is different and you need to take 385 00:19:14,280 --> 00:19:16,679 Speaker 5: a different approach and the considered approach for all of 386 00:19:16,720 --> 00:19:17,520 Speaker 5: those projects. 387 00:19:17,600 --> 00:19:19,320 Speaker 3: Is that what's happened with the ship lift or. 388 00:19:19,440 --> 00:19:23,399 Speaker 5: Look, there are various aspects of that particular project that 389 00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:27,520 Speaker 5: have been considered that need to be going through further 390 00:19:27,560 --> 00:19:32,120 Speaker 5: negotiations with partners around the delivery of that project. 391 00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:34,600 Speaker 3: All right, sorry, Robin, what was it? 392 00:19:34,800 --> 00:19:37,560 Speaker 6: No, I'm just taking it all listening. 393 00:19:39,640 --> 00:19:44,320 Speaker 2: The reality is, I think the real question is how 394 00:19:44,359 --> 00:19:47,480 Speaker 2: many of these major projects have actually been delivered over 395 00:19:47,480 --> 00:19:49,760 Speaker 2: the last eight years. And I think I can't even 396 00:19:49,760 --> 00:19:51,520 Speaker 2: remember what it was, but I think the Chief Minister 397 00:19:51,600 --> 00:19:55,600 Speaker 2: quoted one one major project off the major project list 398 00:19:55,600 --> 00:19:57,479 Speaker 2: has been delivered over the last eight years. And here 399 00:19:57,560 --> 00:20:01,040 Speaker 2: we are constantly talking about this and that's why we'd 400 00:20:01,119 --> 00:20:05,080 Speaker 2: be looking at to reducing all of this by fifty percent, which. 401 00:20:04,920 --> 00:20:07,320 Speaker 8: Is actually really worrying because what the leader of the. 402 00:20:07,280 --> 00:20:11,080 Speaker 5: Opposition said in Parliament this week was that she would 403 00:20:11,160 --> 00:20:15,240 Speaker 5: have a panel that could intervene and override decisions that 404 00:20:15,280 --> 00:20:16,240 Speaker 5: were taking too. 405 00:20:16,119 --> 00:20:18,040 Speaker 8: Long, and that's really worrying. 406 00:20:18,040 --> 00:20:21,720 Speaker 5: When you're working with major projects that is based on evidence, 407 00:20:21,760 --> 00:20:24,000 Speaker 5: which is based on research and data and seas. 408 00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:27,000 Speaker 8: That worrying. 409 00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:31,560 Speaker 5: And that's why we have a territory fan places, coming 410 00:20:31,560 --> 00:20:34,920 Speaker 5: in and making decisions and not taking into account any 411 00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:37,640 Speaker 5: inspected around the environment or the economy. 412 00:20:38,800 --> 00:20:44,280 Speaker 2: Job for at the moment is that the job. There's 413 00:20:44,359 --> 00:20:47,199 Speaker 2: no coordination to the government. This is why it's failing. 414 00:20:47,320 --> 00:20:50,199 Speaker 2: We'll bring in a territory coordinator to take control of 415 00:20:50,240 --> 00:20:53,280 Speaker 2: these major projects and make sure they're delivered for territory. 416 00:20:53,480 --> 00:20:59,000 Speaker 1: Is that actually something that you're committing to the. 417 00:21:00,960 --> 00:21:03,120 Speaker 4: Chance Keys come and. 418 00:21:03,080 --> 00:21:03,720 Speaker 5: Take my job? 419 00:21:03,760 --> 00:21:06,720 Speaker 1: All right, We aren't about to take a very quick break. 420 00:21:06,760 --> 00:21:09,280 Speaker 3: You are listening to Mix one O four nine's three sixty. 421 00:21:09,280 --> 00:21:11,200 Speaker 3: It is the week that was, well, what a busy 422 00:21:11,240 --> 00:21:13,320 Speaker 3: week it has been. If you've just joined us, We've got. 423 00:21:13,320 --> 00:21:17,639 Speaker 1: Chancey Paig, Kathleen Gazola, Robin Lamley and Steve Edgington in 424 00:21:17,680 --> 00:21:23,160 Speaker 1: the studio this morning. Now, curfew legislation. The Northern Territory 425 00:21:23,200 --> 00:21:26,720 Speaker 1: government say that they're continuing their common sense plan to 426 00:21:26,760 --> 00:21:30,800 Speaker 1: reduce crime and anti social behavior by unveiling new legislation 427 00:21:30,920 --> 00:21:34,320 Speaker 1: that will enable curfews to be enacted more flexibly to 428 00:21:34,440 --> 00:21:38,240 Speaker 1: protect communities in the territory. So the Northern Territory Police 429 00:21:38,240 --> 00:21:41,600 Speaker 1: Force is going to administer this new curfew legislation and 430 00:21:41,720 --> 00:21:44,320 Speaker 1: any use of a curfew in the territory is going 431 00:21:44,359 --> 00:21:49,440 Speaker 1: to depend on operational assessments made by police. Formally declaring 432 00:21:49,520 --> 00:21:52,600 Speaker 1: curfews will require steps to be taken by the Commissioner 433 00:21:52,600 --> 00:21:55,719 Speaker 1: of Police, and any extensions to a curfew would require 434 00:21:55,720 --> 00:21:59,520 Speaker 1: the Minister of Police to sign off on at the 435 00:21:59,560 --> 00:22:02,760 Speaker 1: positive outcomes the government sees achieved through the Alla Springs 436 00:22:02,760 --> 00:22:05,919 Speaker 1: Youth curfew in March, so that curfews can be an 437 00:22:06,000 --> 00:22:10,440 Speaker 1: effective community safety tool. Now, I know not everybody thinks 438 00:22:10,440 --> 00:22:12,760 Speaker 1: that this is a good idea. The Children's Commissioner had 439 00:22:12,760 --> 00:22:16,760 Speaker 1: come out yesterday and made some comments around it, as 440 00:22:16,880 --> 00:22:20,880 Speaker 1: had I believed Naja, Who've got some concerns around this. Look, 441 00:22:20,960 --> 00:22:23,480 Speaker 1: I do think it's quite a common sense approach. I 442 00:22:23,640 --> 00:22:26,520 Speaker 1: questioned the timing because I'd ask the Police Minister, Brent 443 00:22:26,520 --> 00:22:29,000 Speaker 1: Potter about this, or I'd ask him earlier in the 444 00:22:29,040 --> 00:22:30,960 Speaker 1: week whether there was going to be other legislation this 445 00:22:31,040 --> 00:22:33,600 Speaker 1: week in an effort to reduce crime, and was told 446 00:22:33,640 --> 00:22:36,439 Speaker 1: that there wouldn't be aside from what was already on 447 00:22:36,480 --> 00:22:38,119 Speaker 1: the agenda. 448 00:22:38,200 --> 00:22:39,800 Speaker 3: So I did question the timing of this. 449 00:22:40,200 --> 00:22:42,000 Speaker 7: Yeah, I think that's a very good point. I was 450 00:22:42,080 --> 00:22:44,000 Speaker 7: just thinking about the timing of it as well, because 451 00:22:44,040 --> 00:22:46,760 Speaker 7: usually when the government hands down their budget, they go 452 00:22:46,840 --> 00:22:50,080 Speaker 7: on this big budget road show, sales pitch, you know. 453 00:22:50,160 --> 00:22:53,280 Speaker 7: The Treasurer chief is always out talking to different groups 454 00:22:53,320 --> 00:22:56,760 Speaker 7: and usually travels the breadth of the territory to sell it. 455 00:22:56,840 --> 00:22:59,479 Speaker 7: So the fact that the exact day after they were 456 00:22:59,520 --> 00:23:02,000 Speaker 7: talking about this legislation that was going to be introduced 457 00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:05,440 Speaker 7: and then debated on urgency is very interesting that they're 458 00:23:05,480 --> 00:23:09,320 Speaker 7: not out really in the terms of media strategy, talking 459 00:23:09,359 --> 00:23:12,240 Speaker 7: about the budget per se, and instead this legislation. 460 00:23:12,240 --> 00:23:12,920 Speaker 3: Because we saw the. 461 00:23:12,880 --> 00:23:16,520 Speaker 7: Colp out talking about their new housing policy. So I 462 00:23:16,560 --> 00:23:18,520 Speaker 7: was very intrigued by that tact. 463 00:23:18,720 --> 00:23:21,960 Speaker 6: Well, they think they obviously know that they are onto 464 00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:26,359 Speaker 6: a winner because people now know there's evidence. There always 465 00:23:26,440 --> 00:23:30,720 Speaker 6: has been evidence, but there's now Northern Territory evidence to 466 00:23:30,760 --> 00:23:35,880 Speaker 6: indicate that curfews can work. They can be enormously effective. Look, 467 00:23:36,160 --> 00:23:40,080 Speaker 6: it makes me wonder about communities like what and pepper 468 00:23:40,080 --> 00:23:46,320 Speaker 6: Manardi that are regularly under siege. The people of pepper 469 00:23:46,320 --> 00:23:49,920 Speaker 6: Minardi are now suing the government for not providing safety. 470 00:23:50,440 --> 00:23:55,560 Speaker 6: They've been exposed to terrible trauma and assaults from allegedly 471 00:23:55,680 --> 00:24:00,520 Speaker 6: by that gang of kids, the Jovi Gang. This is 472 00:24:00,560 --> 00:24:04,960 Speaker 6: where curfews could be brought in and used extremely effectively. 473 00:24:05,440 --> 00:24:08,119 Speaker 6: Now the fact the only problem I have with any 474 00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:10,800 Speaker 6: of this is that it wasn't done sooner. 475 00:24:11,080 --> 00:24:11,840 Speaker 4: It should have been. 476 00:24:12,119 --> 00:24:15,120 Speaker 6: We should have been talking about this five or six 477 00:24:15,200 --> 00:24:17,840 Speaker 6: years ago, and here we are. It's another example of 478 00:24:17,920 --> 00:24:22,560 Speaker 6: chances backflips. He now stated in Parliament just the other 479 00:24:22,640 --> 00:24:25,520 Speaker 6: day that he supports curfews.

We've seen in Alice Springs. 511 00:26:17,520 --> 00:26:19,879 Speaker 5: We've seen in Alice Springs that when we brought in 512 00:26:19,920 --> 00:26:23,600 Speaker 5: that interm short term curfew, we got out with. 513 00:26:23,680 --> 00:26:26,600 Speaker 1: The legislation say that the curfew can only go for 514 00:26:26,640 --> 00:26:28,439 Speaker 1: a short period of time or how long can it 515 00:26:28,480 --> 00:26:28,720 Speaker 1: go for? 516 00:26:29,160 --> 00:26:31,800 Speaker 5: It is a maximum of seventy two hours, and then 517 00:26:31,840 --> 00:26:34,639 Speaker 5: an extension needs to be approved by the Police Minister 518 00:26:34,680 --> 00:26:38,119 Speaker 5: and the Ombudsman has to review those periods. 519 00:26:38,200 --> 00:26:40,880 Speaker 1: And so what makes that different to what Robin has 520 00:26:40,880 --> 00:26:42,760 Speaker 1: called for in the past, Because Robin said to me 521 00:26:43,000 --> 00:26:45,960 Speaker 1: in the past on this on this very show in 522 00:26:46,040 --> 00:26:50,320 Speaker 1: years gone by that she thought that an interim curfew, 523 00:26:51,119 --> 00:26:54,679 Speaker 1: a temporary interim curfew, would you know, would solve or 524 00:26:54,880 --> 00:26:57,520 Speaker 1: certainly calm things down with some of the issues that 525 00:26:57,560 --> 00:26:59,600 Speaker 1: you guys have experienced in Alice Springs before. So I 526 00:26:59,720 --> 00:27:02,719 Speaker 1: just I don't understand what you mean or how are 527 00:27:02,720 --> 00:27:04,639 Speaker 1: you're saying that you know that what she called for 528 00:27:04,680 --> 00:27:07,320 Speaker 1: in the past is different to what the legislation is 529 00:27:07,359 --> 00:27:09,800 Speaker 1: now that that you guys are enacting, because. 530 00:27:09,520 --> 00:27:12,199 Speaker 5: What we have in front of us is actual legislation. 531 00:27:12,400 --> 00:27:14,400 Speaker 5: It's not just coming in on the floor of Parliament 532 00:27:15,200 --> 00:27:18,760 Speaker 5: something this is actually saying. This is saying that we're 533 00:27:18,760 --> 00:27:22,080 Speaker 5: bringing in this legislation. It's got the checks and balances, 534 00:27:22,119 --> 00:27:25,600 Speaker 5: it's got the review period with the Ombudsman, decisions of 535 00:27:25,680 --> 00:27:28,000 Speaker 5: police extensions by the Police Minister. 536 00:27:28,480 --> 00:27:30,440 Speaker 8: We've worked with the sector. 537 00:27:30,520 --> 00:27:33,359 Speaker 5: The Chief Minister's been out, she's met with people, She's 538 00:27:33,400 --> 00:27:35,800 Speaker 5: heard from people on the ground in Central Australia and 539 00:27:36,840 --> 00:27:37,840 Speaker 5: circum that. 540 00:27:37,680 --> 00:27:40,639 Speaker 7: They're made to do in terms of introducing legislation. Robin's 541 00:27:40,640 --> 00:27:43,480 Speaker 7: an independent member, she can't do those things Government brings 542 00:27:43,520 --> 00:27:47,320 Speaker 7: in legislation. So she's been calling for a cur years 543 00:27:49,080 --> 00:27:52,520 Speaker 7: and then all of a sudden it's. 544 00:27:50,040 --> 00:27:54,920 Speaker 5: Just as an independent or as an opposition you can 545 00:27:54,960 --> 00:28:01,320 Speaker 5: actually bring legislation. Let's let's remember six hundred and thirty 546 00:28:01,400 --> 00:28:03,360 Speaker 5: days ago the CELP tried to bring in a fuel bill. 547 00:28:03,520 --> 00:28:07,560 Speaker 1: Let's also remember that when Robin has tried to actually, 548 00:28:07,720 --> 00:28:10,920 Speaker 1: you know, ask you guys to introduce a curfew, you've 549 00:28:10,960 --> 00:28:12,840 Speaker 1: told her it was stupid, but now you guys are 550 00:28:12,840 --> 00:28:13,600 Speaker 1: prepared to do it. 551 00:28:13,720 --> 00:28:15,560 Speaker 3: So that's where. 552 00:28:15,400 --> 00:28:17,520 Speaker 1: I think we're kind of all shaking our heads a 553 00:28:17,560 --> 00:28:19,240 Speaker 1: little bit and going, well, hang on a sec is 554 00:28:19,240 --> 00:28:20,960 Speaker 1: the government is the timing of this because it's a 555 00:28:21,040 --> 00:28:22,880 Speaker 1: vote winner more than anything else. 556 00:28:22,720 --> 00:28:26,080 Speaker 7: And absolute vote Well that's absolutely not true, Cadie. 557 00:28:26,560 --> 00:28:30,399 Speaker 3: Sorry, yes, guys, Dan, we haven't given you a chance. Mate. 558 00:28:31,080 --> 00:28:34,520 Speaker 2: Look, Katie, the cop will be supporting this legislation. But 559 00:28:35,160 --> 00:28:40,720 Speaker 2: you know, it really stuns me that the Deputy Chief 560 00:28:40,720 --> 00:28:42,640 Speaker 2: Minister says that this is an opportunity to work with 561 00:28:42,680 --> 00:28:46,640 Speaker 2: other agencies. Now, this is core business that police work 562 00:28:46,680 --> 00:28:49,320 Speaker 2: with other agencies on a daily basis. So to have 563 00:28:49,720 --> 00:28:51,560 Speaker 2: to say that a curfew is going to bring these 564 00:28:51,560 --> 00:28:55,480 Speaker 2: agencies together and work together is just constantly an admission 565 00:28:55,520 --> 00:28:58,240 Speaker 2: of failure. You know, we've seen that the curfew did 566 00:28:58,280 --> 00:29:01,160 Speaker 2: work in Alice Springs, but this is another admission of 567 00:29:01,160 --> 00:29:04,840 Speaker 2: failure that the legislation that they used previously was simply 568 00:29:04,880 --> 00:29:08,480 Speaker 2: the wrong legislation. This type of legislation should have been 569 00:29:08,480 --> 00:29:10,880 Speaker 2: brought in a long, long time ago. So we'll be 570 00:29:10,920 --> 00:29:12,640 Speaker 2: supporting it. But what we want to see is that 571 00:29:12,680 --> 00:29:16,000 Speaker 2: there are proper measures in place for people that are 572 00:29:16,040 --> 00:29:18,560 Speaker 2: breaching that curfew. You know, if young people are out 573 00:29:18,560 --> 00:29:21,520 Speaker 2: there breaching curfews, then there needs to be consequences. There 574 00:29:21,560 --> 00:29:23,920 Speaker 2: needs to be programs, there needs to be boot camps, 575 00:29:24,160 --> 00:29:26,160 Speaker 2: all of those sorts of things need to be in place, 576 00:29:26,480 --> 00:29:28,200 Speaker 2: but they're simply not in place at the moment. 577 00:29:28,240 --> 00:29:29,840 Speaker 1: Look, I do want to just point out as well 578 00:29:29,840 --> 00:29:31,920 Speaker 1: that for our listeners in Alice Springs this morning, they 579 00:29:31,960 --> 00:29:34,200 Speaker 1: might be feeling pretty fired up because there's actually been 580 00:29:34,200 --> 00:29:36,960 Speaker 1: a couple of pretty serious incidents from overnight. So Northern 581 00:29:37,040 --> 00:29:40,560 Speaker 1: Territory Police calling for information after an aggravated assault that 582 00:29:40,640 --> 00:29:44,560 Speaker 1: occurred on I think it's called sicone in Alice Springs, 583 00:29:45,200 --> 00:29:47,720 Speaker 1: Ye Siconi and Ola Springs. So just before nine pm, 584 00:29:48,480 --> 00:29:51,440 Speaker 1: police received that report of an assault involving two residents 585 00:29:51,680 --> 00:29:54,360 Speaker 1: at a property on Foggetty Street. A large group of 586 00:29:54,360 --> 00:29:57,760 Speaker 1: offenders allegedly entered the yard of the property and confronted 587 00:29:57,760 --> 00:30:00,840 Speaker 1: the pair. The offenders assaulted the victims before fleeing that 588 00:30:00,960 --> 00:30:04,880 Speaker 1: location in a white Toyota troop carrier. The male victim, 589 00:30:05,000 --> 00:30:08,560 Speaker 1: age twenty seven, sustained significant facial injuries and was taken 590 00:30:08,560 --> 00:30:11,959 Speaker 1: to Alice Springs Hospital for further treatment. The female victim, 591 00:30:12,000 --> 00:30:15,280 Speaker 1: age thirty three, sustained minor injuries and did not seek 592 00:30:15,600 --> 00:30:18,880 Speaker 1: medical treatment. In addition to that, the police have also 593 00:30:18,960 --> 00:30:21,640 Speaker 1: arrested a man in relation to an aggravated assault that 594 00:30:21,640 --> 00:30:24,960 Speaker 1: occurred in Alice Springs overnight. About seven point thirty, police 595 00:30:24,960 --> 00:30:27,600 Speaker 1: were flagged down by a woman on Todd Street suffering 596 00:30:27,680 --> 00:30:30,920 Speaker 1: lacerations to her face and head. She was conveyed to 597 00:30:30,960 --> 00:30:34,800 Speaker 1: Alice Springs Hospital for treatment while police began investigations. Now 598 00:30:34,880 --> 00:30:38,240 Speaker 1: CCTV operators tracked her movements back to the vehicle parked 599 00:30:38,240 --> 00:30:41,560 Speaker 1: on Gregory Terrace where police believe and assault may have 600 00:30:41,640 --> 00:30:44,719 Speaker 1: taken place. A short time later, police received a report 601 00:30:44,760 --> 00:30:47,800 Speaker 1: that the victim's partner of thirty one year old man 602 00:30:47,920 --> 00:30:50,880 Speaker 1: was present at the hospital. Police attended the scene and 603 00:30:50,920 --> 00:30:54,200 Speaker 1: after a short footchase, that man was arrested without incident, 604 00:30:54,320 --> 00:30:57,720 Speaker 1: so he remains in custody. He's assisting police with their inquiries. 605 00:30:57,760 --> 00:31:01,120 Speaker 1: But look, anyone within foe that canisis the police. One three, one, 606 00:31:01,160 --> 00:31:03,680 Speaker 1: triple four is the number. So I do I mean, 607 00:31:03,920 --> 00:31:06,600 Speaker 1: I want to just point out we are still receiving 608 00:31:06,600 --> 00:31:08,680 Speaker 1: reports like that, you know, daily. 609 00:31:08,920 --> 00:31:10,760 Speaker 4: Our crime realisis continues. 610 00:31:10,920 --> 00:31:11,160 Speaker 8: Kay. 611 00:31:11,560 --> 00:31:13,320 Speaker 4: Really, there is no doubt if you. 612 00:31:13,360 --> 00:31:15,840 Speaker 6: Took some pressure out of the system, the curfew you 613 00:31:15,920 --> 00:31:19,120 Speaker 6: ended a month ago, and you can see things sliding 614 00:31:19,200 --> 00:31:21,160 Speaker 6: back again. That's the reality here. 615 00:31:21,280 --> 00:31:25,280 Speaker 2: We're seeing some of the most serious crimes over the 616 00:31:25,360 --> 00:31:27,760 Speaker 2: last eight years, and it's getting worse and worse and worse. 617 00:31:27,800 --> 00:31:30,600 Speaker 2: So we're seeing increases in alcohol rel outd of assaults, 618 00:31:30,640 --> 00:31:34,960 Speaker 2: domestic violence, assaults, these robbery type offenses, home invasions have 619 00:31:35,040 --> 00:31:38,800 Speaker 2: increased in the severity of the violence involved has just 620 00:31:38,880 --> 00:31:42,800 Speaker 2: increased over the years. And simply the police need better powers. 621 00:31:42,840 --> 00:31:45,160 Speaker 2: There needs to be stronger laws around bail. You know, 622 00:31:45,240 --> 00:31:48,680 Speaker 2: we've constantly called for serious vile and offenders to have 623 00:31:48,760 --> 00:31:52,160 Speaker 2: a presumption against bail, but the government, the Labor government, 624 00:31:52,160 --> 00:31:56,080 Speaker 2: has constantly resisted any opportunity to bring in stronger laws 625 00:31:56,280 --> 00:31:58,000 Speaker 2: that might make a difference in the community. 626 00:31:58,040 --> 00:31:59,640 Speaker 7: And I think the mayor had said that it was 627 00:31:59,640 --> 00:32:02,160 Speaker 7: that presence of police had been the big part of 628 00:32:02,200 --> 00:32:05,040 Speaker 7: the curfew in particular, that had made people feel a 629 00:32:05,040 --> 00:32:08,320 Speaker 7: lot safer because it was seeing those officers walking the 630 00:32:08,400 --> 00:32:11,360 Speaker 7: streets and being around and that included having the essay 631 00:32:11,440 --> 00:32:14,720 Speaker 7: police come and assist. But as I understand that they've 632 00:32:14,760 --> 00:32:16,000 Speaker 7: now finished our bodings. 633 00:32:16,520 --> 00:32:19,000 Speaker 5: Yeah, and look, but Katie, I think let's be clear 634 00:32:19,080 --> 00:32:22,760 Speaker 5: the curfew is an extra item for the tool in 635 00:32:22,800 --> 00:32:26,520 Speaker 5: their tool and their toolbox to use to activate when 636 00:32:26,560 --> 00:32:29,400 Speaker 5: they need to. You know, Minister Potter has made it 637 00:32:29,440 --> 00:32:32,320 Speaker 5: clear that we've got the Territory Safety Division starting up 638 00:32:32,360 --> 00:32:34,400 Speaker 5: and opening up in Central Australia. 639 00:32:34,000 --> 00:32:34,960 Speaker 8: As well till July. 640 00:32:35,200 --> 00:32:39,480 Speaker 5: We've had this Reportory, you've got to make sure that 641 00:32:39,560 --> 00:32:42,320 Speaker 5: you are providing opportunities for training and up skilling of 642 00:32:42,360 --> 00:32:42,880 Speaker 5: the forces. 643 00:32:42,920 --> 00:32:46,120 Speaker 1: Well, because I asked this of the Chief Minister earlier 644 00:32:46,160 --> 00:32:48,959 Speaker 1: in the week as well, you know what's been the 645 00:32:48,960 --> 00:32:51,480 Speaker 1: turning point for you that you, as the Deputy Chief 646 00:32:51,480 --> 00:32:53,960 Speaker 1: Minister have decided well, hang on, we actually need to 647 00:32:54,000 --> 00:32:55,920 Speaker 1: take this more seriously than what we have been in 648 00:32:55,960 --> 00:32:59,280 Speaker 1: the past, because you know, while the Government was acknowledging 649 00:32:59,320 --> 00:33:02,040 Speaker 1: that we had a cry issue before Evil Laula became 650 00:33:02,080 --> 00:33:04,520 Speaker 1: the Chief Minister. She seems to have been the only 651 00:33:04,560 --> 00:33:07,200 Speaker 1: one from your cabinet that's really had the guts to 652 00:33:07,240 --> 00:33:11,520 Speaker 1: do something that's outside the box, that takes on you know, 653 00:33:11,760 --> 00:33:15,040 Speaker 1: other other groups that are you know, that are saying 654 00:33:15,040 --> 00:33:16,280 Speaker 1: what she's doing is wrong. 655 00:33:16,520 --> 00:33:17,960 Speaker 3: So what's been the turning point for you? 656 00:33:18,240 --> 00:33:22,239 Speaker 5: I think having the Chief continuing to work with all 657 00:33:22,280 --> 00:33:24,480 Speaker 5: of the cabinet and looking at and being very open 658 00:33:24,520 --> 00:33:27,560 Speaker 5: about continuing to look at innovative ways and working with 659 00:33:27,680 --> 00:33:30,160 Speaker 5: the community and going back out and talking to community 660 00:33:30,200 --> 00:33:31,520 Speaker 5: around the chief. 661 00:33:31,600 --> 00:33:33,680 Speaker 3: It was a captain's call. 662 00:33:34,040 --> 00:33:35,040 Speaker 8: No, it wasn't a captain. 663 00:33:35,120 --> 00:33:39,640 Speaker 3: She said it. She has said it on camera that it. 664 00:33:39,600 --> 00:33:44,720 Speaker 8: Was her, the team and absolutely everybody else. 665 00:33:45,640 --> 00:33:48,040 Speaker 5: It's a measure that is an intra measure. It's a 666 00:33:48,080 --> 00:33:51,000 Speaker 5: circuit breaker, you know, Katie. There's work to do in 667 00:33:51,200 --> 00:33:52,720 Speaker 5: all areas. 668 00:33:52,600 --> 00:33:53,080 Speaker 8: In our life. 669 00:33:53,120 --> 00:33:55,000 Speaker 3: It's safe to say if she wasn't the Chief Minister, 670 00:33:55,040 --> 00:33:55,840 Speaker 3: it would not have happened. 671 00:33:55,920 --> 00:33:58,640 Speaker 6: You know, you'd go a long way, Chancey by just 672 00:33:58,720 --> 00:34:03,120 Speaker 6: telling the truth, you would be consistent lies that you've 673 00:34:03,240 --> 00:34:06,000 Speaker 6: been constantly. You're doing yourself over. 674 00:34:06,480 --> 00:34:09,120 Speaker 2: It's interesting that we hear about this Territory Safety Division 675 00:34:09,160 --> 00:34:11,840 Speaker 2: Alice Springs because it was only what a week or 676 00:34:11,840 --> 00:34:14,319 Speaker 2: two ago. The Police Association came out and said that 677 00:34:15,000 --> 00:34:17,719 Speaker 2: since the Prime Minister visited back in what twenty three, 678 00:34:17,960 --> 00:34:21,279 Speaker 2: they're actually twenty five to twenty eight police down. But 679 00:34:21,360 --> 00:34:23,160 Speaker 2: in the same breath they're sayingly going to create a 680 00:34:23,239 --> 00:34:26,680 Speaker 2: Territory Safety Division with eighteen extra coppers. But over all 681 00:34:26,680 --> 00:34:29,040 Speaker 2: the Police Reviews says that we're over two hundred down 682 00:34:29,040 --> 00:34:32,160 Speaker 2: at the moment. So where are these police coming from? 683 00:34:32,360 --> 00:34:35,560 Speaker 1: Is that we are to have I believe we were 684 00:34:35,600 --> 00:34:38,680 Speaker 1: due to have quite a large contingent or about sixty 685 00:34:38,680 --> 00:34:41,359 Speaker 1: odd graduate I think June or July. But look, we're 686 00:34:41,360 --> 00:34:43,200 Speaker 1: going to take a really quick break with fast running 687 00:34:43,200 --> 00:34:45,200 Speaker 1: out of time in here, and there's still lots to discuss. 688 00:34:45,280 --> 00:34:47,680 Speaker 1: You are listening to Mix one O four nine's three sixty. 689 00:34:47,880 --> 00:34:50,239 Speaker 1: It is the week that was has been a massive week. 690 00:34:50,280 --> 00:34:53,600 Speaker 1: We know the Country Liberal Party new polling release has 691 00:34:53,640 --> 00:34:56,839 Speaker 1: shown that it shows that it has a hold, a 692 00:34:56,880 --> 00:35:00,480 Speaker 1: strong hold or a strong lead I should say, August 693 00:35:00,520 --> 00:35:04,000 Speaker 1: Northern Territory election. That's what this new poll has revealed. 694 00:35:04,000 --> 00:35:06,880 Speaker 1: In a report by Matt Cullingham from Sky News, it 695 00:35:07,000 --> 00:35:10,600 Speaker 1: also showed though that Labours clawed back some significant ground 696 00:35:10,960 --> 00:35:14,160 Speaker 1: after the leadership of new Chief Minister Eva Lawler. Now, 697 00:35:14,160 --> 00:35:17,760 Speaker 1: the poll by Freshwater Strategy on behalf of Australian Energy 698 00:35:17,800 --> 00:35:21,839 Speaker 1: Producers NT shows the COLP is ahead fifty four to 699 00:35:21,920 --> 00:35:25,600 Speaker 1: forty six on a two party preferred basis. The survey 700 00:35:25,760 --> 00:35:28,319 Speaker 1: of one thousand voters, with a margin of era of 701 00:35:28,360 --> 00:35:31,000 Speaker 1: three percent, shows that more than a quarter of voters 702 00:35:31,040 --> 00:35:34,759 Speaker 1: are still undecided ahead of the election on August twenty four, 703 00:35:34,920 --> 00:35:39,360 Speaker 1: So just seventeen percent of respondents said that they'd vote 704 00:35:39,360 --> 00:35:42,440 Speaker 1: for Labor when they were first asked, thirty three percent 705 00:35:42,520 --> 00:35:45,680 Speaker 1: said they'd vote for the COLP, seventeen percent said that 706 00:35:45,719 --> 00:35:49,839 Speaker 1: they were undecided, oh sorry, seventeen percent said independent, and 707 00:35:50,040 --> 00:35:54,319 Speaker 1: seven percent would vote for the Greens. Now when they 708 00:35:54,360 --> 00:35:58,360 Speaker 1: were pushed, Labour's primary vote improved to twenty nine percent, 709 00:35:58,640 --> 00:36:02,000 Speaker 1: behind the COLP on tho twy nine percent, an independent 710 00:36:02,200 --> 00:36:06,360 Speaker 1: on twenty two percent and the Greens on nine percent. 711 00:36:07,160 --> 00:36:09,879 Speaker 2: What do you make of us, Well, I think at 712 00:36:09,880 --> 00:36:13,919 Speaker 2: this stage, Katie, look, we're focused on it's an interesting poll, 713 00:36:13,960 --> 00:36:16,040 Speaker 2: no doubt about it, and there's people that are interested 714 00:36:16,080 --> 00:36:18,320 Speaker 2: in looking at the poll. But look, as a CORP 715 00:36:18,480 --> 00:36:20,560 Speaker 2: team we've got a good, strong team. We're out and 716 00:36:20,560 --> 00:36:22,640 Speaker 2: about at the moment talking to people on the ground, 717 00:36:22,880 --> 00:36:26,160 Speaker 2: and we're implementing the policies that people are raising with us. 718 00:36:26,440 --> 00:36:28,520 Speaker 2: So that's why we've brought in the home build scheme, 719 00:36:28,880 --> 00:36:32,960 Speaker 2: that's why we've reduced the payroll tax. We've released our 720 00:36:33,000 --> 00:36:36,080 Speaker 2: crime policy, and we've released our corrections policy. This is 721 00:36:36,120 --> 00:36:38,440 Speaker 2: what people are telling us on the ground. Over the 722 00:36:38,480 --> 00:36:40,960 Speaker 2: next one hundred odd days or ninety nine days or 723 00:36:41,000 --> 00:36:43,120 Speaker 2: ninety eight whatever it is. At the moment, we're going 724 00:36:43,160 --> 00:36:46,280 Speaker 2: to be out there constantly talking to territorians to find 725 00:36:46,280 --> 00:36:48,680 Speaker 2: out what matters most to them, and that's what we're 726 00:36:48,719 --> 00:36:49,800 Speaker 2: focused on at the moment. 727 00:36:50,000 --> 00:36:51,799 Speaker 6: What did you make of the polling, Robin, Well, it's 728 00:36:51,840 --> 00:36:55,120 Speaker 6: certainly going to be a contest, isn't it. I remember 729 00:36:56,000 --> 00:36:59,200 Speaker 6: in the lead up to the last election in twenty twenty, 730 00:37:00,719 --> 00:37:03,640 Speaker 6: the polling suggested an outcome that was very different from 731 00:37:03,680 --> 00:37:06,840 Speaker 6: what actually happens. So I'm very mindful that these things 732 00:37:06,880 --> 00:37:12,400 Speaker 6: can change. I think even Lawler is starting to resonate, 733 00:37:12,480 --> 00:37:15,319 Speaker 6: but I think it's all too little, too late. I 734 00:37:15,360 --> 00:37:20,480 Speaker 6: personally feel that a change of government is absolutely essential 735 00:37:20,640 --> 00:37:23,360 Speaker 6: for Central Australia. For my part of the world, we 736 00:37:23,520 --> 00:37:25,439 Speaker 6: cannot survive another four years of this. 737 00:37:26,520 --> 00:37:27,640 Speaker 3: Chelsea, what did you make of it? 738 00:37:28,160 --> 00:37:28,399 Speaker 8: Ah? 739 00:37:28,400 --> 00:37:31,719 Speaker 5: Look, I think just following on from what Robin has said, 740 00:37:31,760 --> 00:37:34,840 Speaker 5: polls can say things and the outcome can be very different. 741 00:37:34,880 --> 00:37:36,600 Speaker 5: I think the poll that matters is the poll on 742 00:37:36,640 --> 00:37:40,480 Speaker 5: the twenty fourth of August, when you know territories go 743 00:37:40,600 --> 00:37:44,480 Speaker 5: to the polls. I think, certainly, when we look at 744 00:37:44,480 --> 00:37:46,600 Speaker 5: what we've done, we're getting on with the business of 745 00:37:46,680 --> 00:37:48,920 Speaker 5: doing and delivering in the territory. 746 00:37:48,920 --> 00:37:51,160 Speaker 8: And certainly I disagree with Robin. 747 00:37:51,200 --> 00:37:54,719 Speaker 5: I think that you know, Labor is certainly the best 748 00:37:54,760 --> 00:37:57,520 Speaker 5: party for the territory. And when I look at the Bush, 749 00:37:57,640 --> 00:38:00,640 Speaker 5: I see the significant investment that we've seen, and we 750 00:38:00,719 --> 00:38:02,879 Speaker 5: know that when the CELP were in government they built 751 00:38:02,920 --> 00:38:05,439 Speaker 5: one house in the last two years of their term 752 00:38:05,480 --> 00:38:08,440 Speaker 5: in the Bush, which has had disastrous consequences. 753 00:38:08,560 --> 00:38:11,560 Speaker 1: Is that where the Labor Party is really hoping to 754 00:38:11,640 --> 00:38:13,560 Speaker 1: win the next election in the Bush. 755 00:38:13,960 --> 00:38:17,040 Speaker 5: Every seat matters to the Labor Party and every territory 756 00:38:17,080 --> 00:38:19,319 Speaker 5: in matters and will certainly be out there. There's three 757 00:38:19,360 --> 00:38:22,719 Speaker 5: months until the election and as Robin said, it'll be 758 00:38:22,719 --> 00:38:23,560 Speaker 5: a tight contest. 759 00:38:23,960 --> 00:38:26,080 Speaker 1: Are there any seats that you guys see as being 760 00:38:26,200 --> 00:38:28,759 Speaker 1: sort of quiet. I mean, how are you looking at it, Kathleen, Like, 761 00:38:28,800 --> 00:38:30,520 Speaker 1: are you kind of looking at it and going, oh, well, 762 00:38:30,560 --> 00:38:32,719 Speaker 1: you know, this seat's really tight. I mean, I can 763 00:38:32,760 --> 00:38:34,200 Speaker 1: think of a few just off the top of my 764 00:38:34,239 --> 00:38:36,239 Speaker 1: head that I think are going to be really interesting, 765 00:38:36,280 --> 00:38:39,359 Speaker 1: you know, the like support Darwin for example, fong Lim 766 00:38:39,400 --> 00:38:41,200 Speaker 1: I think is going to be very interesting. I think 767 00:38:41,200 --> 00:38:43,520 Speaker 1: the seats out in Palmerston as well are going to 768 00:38:43,520 --> 00:38:46,000 Speaker 1: be ones to keep an eye on. I also believe 769 00:38:46,040 --> 00:38:48,440 Speaker 1: Karama is going to be a really interesting one to 770 00:38:48,520 --> 00:38:49,880 Speaker 1: keep an eye on. There are just a few that 771 00:38:49,960 --> 00:38:51,719 Speaker 1: I can think of off the top of my head, 772 00:38:51,760 --> 00:38:53,719 Speaker 1: and I'll be really blunt. I don't have as good 773 00:38:53,760 --> 00:38:57,360 Speaker 1: an understanding of the issues out in those remote communities 774 00:38:57,440 --> 00:38:59,920 Speaker 1: or in those more remote areas as to how the 775 00:39:00,000 --> 00:39:03,680 Speaker 1: those bush seats could change. But what I do know is, 776 00:39:03,800 --> 00:39:05,759 Speaker 1: and all of our listeners know this, is that I 777 00:39:05,800 --> 00:39:09,160 Speaker 1: worked for Rob Knight several years ago when he was 778 00:39:09,160 --> 00:39:11,440 Speaker 1: a member for Daily And what I know is that 779 00:39:11,480 --> 00:39:13,080 Speaker 1: those bush seats can also. 780 00:39:12,960 --> 00:39:14,040 Speaker 3: Turn on a dime. 781 00:39:14,200 --> 00:39:17,439 Speaker 1: So it's really interesting, you know, It's always a very 782 00:39:17,440 --> 00:39:20,040 Speaker 1: interesting thing to keep an eye on, and that polling 783 00:39:20,160 --> 00:39:24,560 Speaker 1: really doesn't look very often at those bush areas. 784 00:39:24,280 --> 00:39:27,080 Speaker 7: And I think a lot of people wouldn't be surprised 785 00:39:27,120 --> 00:39:29,560 Speaker 7: by the polling, just given that the issues that we've 786 00:39:29,560 --> 00:39:31,400 Speaker 7: seen and you know a lot of the callers and 787 00:39:31,440 --> 00:39:34,000 Speaker 7: sentiments that you get to your show, in particular at Katie, 788 00:39:34,040 --> 00:39:36,960 Speaker 7: but of course in the Northern territory, I think you 789 00:39:37,040 --> 00:39:39,600 Speaker 7: do have to drill it down to those individual electorates. 790 00:39:39,600 --> 00:39:42,560 Speaker 7: It is so different to you know, a federal election 791 00:39:42,960 --> 00:39:46,720 Speaker 7: that you know overall people are unhappy potentially with whatever 792 00:39:46,800 --> 00:39:50,280 Speaker 7: party is in power, and you know governments lose elections 793 00:39:50,360 --> 00:39:52,000 Speaker 7: rather than the other way around. But when you do 794 00:39:52,080 --> 00:39:54,560 Speaker 7: drill it down into those individual seats, it becomes a 795 00:39:54,719 --> 00:39:56,440 Speaker 7: very different game. 796 00:39:56,840 --> 00:40:00,040 Speaker 1: Well, particularly when you look at local issues, right and 797 00:40:00,120 --> 00:40:04,680 Speaker 1: even in somewhere like for the seat of Johnson, also 798 00:40:04,880 --> 00:40:08,760 Speaker 1: Nightcliff and even Oh I can't think oh, and Fanny 799 00:40:08,840 --> 00:40:11,640 Speaker 1: Bay and then also fong Limb, there's an issue there 800 00:40:11,760 --> 00:40:14,040 Speaker 1: that's that seems like a small issue, which is the 801 00:40:14,160 --> 00:40:18,000 Speaker 1: moving of Osmond House. And you know there's Saint Vinnie's 802 00:40:18,040 --> 00:40:20,880 Speaker 1: into another electorate that will have a lot of people 803 00:40:21,040 --> 00:40:21,879 Speaker 1: very concerned like. 804 00:40:21,880 --> 00:40:25,480 Speaker 7: Thes and you touched on the seats in Palmerstan And 805 00:40:25,520 --> 00:40:28,719 Speaker 7: with that polling that Matt revealed was that you know 806 00:40:28,760 --> 00:40:32,120 Speaker 7: that polling had gotten better from Labor because Eva had 807 00:40:32,160 --> 00:40:34,719 Speaker 7: come in and taken the leadership because of the way 808 00:40:34,760 --> 00:40:37,920 Speaker 7: that I think she has come out and been very upfront, 809 00:40:38,000 --> 00:40:40,120 Speaker 7: and you know, she she says she doesn't care if 810 00:40:40,120 --> 00:40:42,120 Speaker 7: she's made a backflip. She had to make a captain's call, 811 00:40:42,200 --> 00:40:45,920 Speaker 7: Radi Radi ra. But her seat is definitely up for 812 00:40:45,960 --> 00:40:49,480 Speaker 7: grabs in Palmestan, so it's not a guarantee if they 813 00:40:49,600 --> 00:40:52,440 Speaker 7: do win power that she's still rouster building them. 814 00:40:52,440 --> 00:40:55,719 Speaker 5: From what Cat's talked about, there's a whole bunch of consideration. 815 00:40:55,880 --> 00:40:58,200 Speaker 8: So every four years, Steve. 816 00:40:57,960 --> 00:41:00,000 Speaker 5: Robin and me and every member of the Assembly has 817 00:41:00,160 --> 00:41:03,680 Speaker 5: boundary redistribution. Yep, we've got electorates here in the territory 818 00:41:03,680 --> 00:41:08,600 Speaker 5: of just over six thousand people. So you know, every 819 00:41:08,760 --> 00:41:11,200 Speaker 5: there's no such thing in the territory as a safe seat. 820 00:41:11,360 --> 00:41:15,960 Speaker 5: Everyone takes their seat seriously and voters absolutely are across 821 00:41:16,120 --> 00:41:20,560 Speaker 5: the issues and every election, either party, there are always 822 00:41:20,640 --> 00:41:25,240 Speaker 5: those wow factors that no one even thinks that happened. 823 00:41:25,440 --> 00:41:27,959 Speaker 5: That happened, so it's really hard to gate. 824 00:41:28,280 --> 00:41:29,799 Speaker 3: Yeah, you go seat. 825 00:41:29,960 --> 00:41:31,799 Speaker 2: I was going to say, and I think you know, 826 00:41:32,800 --> 00:41:34,719 Speaker 2: Robin touched on a few issues there, but you know, 827 00:41:34,760 --> 00:41:36,839 Speaker 2: the reality is, and I think you know, on one hand, 828 00:41:36,920 --> 00:41:38,920 Speaker 2: chances saying that they've delivered in the Bush, but you've 829 00:41:38,960 --> 00:41:40,680 Speaker 2: only got to look at my electorate at the moment. 830 00:41:40,800 --> 00:41:43,360 Speaker 2: We've got schools closing. We've had a police station closed 831 00:41:43,400 --> 00:41:46,280 Speaker 2: at our perroom, so the Corella Creek school is closed. 832 00:41:46,600 --> 00:41:48,480 Speaker 2: I was up in Bora Lula the other week. The 833 00:41:48,560 --> 00:41:50,799 Speaker 2: high school is closed. So there's a whole range of 834 00:41:50,800 --> 00:41:53,279 Speaker 2: things going on out the Bush at the moment. You've 835 00:41:53,280 --> 00:41:57,040 Speaker 2: got the government talking about record investment, but the reality 836 00:41:57,080 --> 00:41:58,920 Speaker 2: is on the ground, particularly in the Bush where I 837 00:41:58,960 --> 00:42:02,359 Speaker 2: amnumber of projects that haven't been delivered. In Tenant Creek, 838 00:42:02,400 --> 00:42:05,680 Speaker 2: I've estimated that around about seventy million dollars that has 839 00:42:05,760 --> 00:42:09,080 Speaker 2: been forgotten about by the labor government hasn't been delivered 840 00:42:09,080 --> 00:42:12,279 Speaker 2: over the eight years. School's closing, police stations closing, and 841 00:42:12,320 --> 00:42:14,279 Speaker 2: there's still people living in the crowded house. 842 00:42:14,400 --> 00:42:17,000 Speaker 1: I do want to just go to both you Steve 843 00:42:17,080 --> 00:42:20,480 Speaker 1: and also you Chancey, I mean for both of the 844 00:42:20,480 --> 00:42:22,920 Speaker 1: parties at this point in time, like what would a 845 00:42:22,960 --> 00:42:27,200 Speaker 1: scenario look like if out in a seat in Palmerston 846 00:42:27,400 --> 00:42:30,040 Speaker 1: like evil lawlers. I mean, she is very busy doing 847 00:42:30,040 --> 00:42:31,640 Speaker 1: the job of the Chief Minister at the moment and 848 00:42:31,719 --> 00:42:34,920 Speaker 1: rightly so, all the while her opponent Clinton how you know, 849 00:42:34,960 --> 00:42:36,879 Speaker 1: if you look at his Facebook, he's draw knocked every 850 00:42:37,440 --> 00:42:39,960 Speaker 1: house out there from what he sees. I mean, what 851 00:42:39,960 --> 00:42:42,200 Speaker 1: would a what would a Labor government look like if 852 00:42:42,280 --> 00:42:44,000 Speaker 1: Eva is not the chief Minister? 853 00:42:44,160 --> 00:42:45,000 Speaker 3: Is it you stepping in? 854 00:42:45,680 --> 00:42:45,960 Speaker 8: Look? 855 00:42:46,080 --> 00:42:49,680 Speaker 5: That is a matters like for any party that your 856 00:42:49,719 --> 00:42:53,040 Speaker 5: party and very great would look And I mean the 857 00:42:53,120 --> 00:42:55,719 Speaker 5: CLP would never have Robin back, that's what they say. 858 00:42:55,840 --> 00:42:57,880 Speaker 5: But yet they don't have a candidate for Arah Luin. 859 00:42:58,000 --> 00:43:10,360 Speaker 4: So he like. 860 00:43:08,040 --> 00:43:10,799 Speaker 5: A great She is a great chief Minister and she'll 861 00:43:10,800 --> 00:43:12,360 Speaker 5: continue to be a great chief minister. 862 00:43:12,960 --> 00:43:14,000 Speaker 8: And you know they are. 863 00:43:13,880 --> 00:43:18,520 Speaker 5: Matters for the caucus. But you know, like again, elections 864 00:43:18,520 --> 00:43:21,239 Speaker 5: are tight. Steve Edgington only won by five votes and 865 00:43:21,239 --> 00:43:22,440 Speaker 5: we're looking to get those. 866 00:43:22,200 --> 00:43:23,239 Speaker 8: Five votes back. 867 00:43:23,280 --> 00:43:29,640 Speaker 5: And we absolutely got a candidate for every seat and 868 00:43:29,680 --> 00:43:31,760 Speaker 5: they'll be announced as we get closer to the election, 869 00:43:31,960 --> 00:43:34,440 Speaker 5: not just one yet. We've got a candidate one I 870 00:43:34,520 --> 00:43:35,640 Speaker 5: haven't been announced. 871 00:43:35,320 --> 00:43:35,800 Speaker 8: Yet, Steve. 872 00:43:35,880 --> 00:43:38,399 Speaker 1: I mean for you, you did only by by five 873 00:43:38,440 --> 00:43:40,960 Speaker 1: seats and for some people there touting you as the 874 00:43:41,000 --> 00:43:43,320 Speaker 1: next CELP leader, look. 875 00:43:43,440 --> 00:43:46,239 Speaker 2: Was it was a type margin. Look, the reality was 876 00:43:46,239 --> 00:43:49,319 Speaker 2: that the first references I want about about two undred votes. 877 00:43:49,600 --> 00:43:51,880 Speaker 2: You know, there was an independent in Boro Lula that 878 00:43:52,200 --> 00:43:55,799 Speaker 2: took a number of first preferences and preference Labor. So look, 879 00:43:55,840 --> 00:43:57,680 Speaker 2: there was a few issues there, but the reality is 880 00:43:57,760 --> 00:44:01,000 Speaker 2: that the COLP took that seat after thirty years of 881 00:44:01,120 --> 00:44:04,000 Speaker 2: inaction by the Labor government. So that's why I'm in 882 00:44:04,040 --> 00:44:06,320 Speaker 2: the position because of all of the inaction by the 883 00:44:06,400 --> 00:44:08,920 Speaker 2: Labor government. I've been out and about talking to people 884 00:44:08,920 --> 00:44:11,080 Speaker 2: on the ground. I understand what the issues are that 885 00:44:11,120 --> 00:44:13,960 Speaker 2: they're facing, and they've had it worse and worse and 886 00:44:14,040 --> 00:44:16,920 Speaker 2: worse over the last four years. And I've just highlighted 887 00:44:16,960 --> 00:44:21,280 Speaker 2: the schools that are closing, police station closing, still overcrowded houses, 888 00:44:21,640 --> 00:44:30,360 Speaker 2: and important infrastructure in and look, stay tuned to my 889 00:44:30,440 --> 00:44:31,640 Speaker 2: budget refined. 890 00:44:31,239 --> 00:44:34,320 Speaker 8: Next week because. 891 00:44:34,880 --> 00:44:38,359 Speaker 2: I'll be pointing out morally because there's simply not enough 892 00:44:38,400 --> 00:44:41,440 Speaker 2: money coming into the Barkley. There's been a few announcements 893 00:44:41,719 --> 00:44:44,160 Speaker 2: even a look. Look, the government announced a new school 894 00:44:44,160 --> 00:44:46,080 Speaker 2: for Ali Krunk, but it won't even take place till 895 00:44:46,080 --> 00:44:46,840 Speaker 2: the second quarter. 896 00:44:46,680 --> 00:44:47,600 Speaker 8: In twenty twenty five. 897 00:44:48,760 --> 00:44:50,240 Speaker 2: It will just never be delivered. 898 00:44:50,280 --> 00:44:51,960 Speaker 1: We're gonna have to take a really quick break because 899 00:44:51,960 --> 00:44:53,840 Speaker 1: I know Robin and Chelsey need to catch a plane. 900 00:44:53,960 --> 00:44:56,480 Speaker 1: You are listening to Mix one O four nine's three sixty. 901 00:44:56,520 --> 00:44:58,560 Speaker 1: We will be back to wrap things up.
