The Victorian government on Sunday announced its much-anticipated support package to help businesses survive the seven-day shutdown.
"Well, we are paying. We are paying very substantially, and I don't think working people should be paying." Treasury estimates Victoria's seven-day lockdown will punch a $700 million hole in the economy, but Mr Pallas would not be drawn on possibly extending the package if it drags out past Thursday."We understand that we have an obligation to assist and support them. That is exactly what we are doing."
"When Australians needed support in 2020, both state and federal governments were there. Now is not the time for the feds to abandon Victorians," he said.
HQ used effectively throughout world (ex Victoria). Contact tracing effective in all States (ex Vic). Covid’s killed 910 (820 in Vic). Border lockdowns minimal (ex Vic). JK effective in all States (ex Vic). Agecare infections controlled (ex Vic). How is this all the PM’s fault?
Victorian government impose another unnecessary lockdown for a small number of cases and want the Federal government to pick up the bill. 😖😖😤😤
So the workers are paying to keep businesses afloat?
Will it equate to $100 like the last one?
Should be funded💰 by South Australia‼️
250 million? are you joking, how that is going to be enough?
When will Morrison and Frydenberg assist the Victorian public
