THE Member for Northern Victoria, Wendy Lovell, has said locals need a government plan that focuses on “getting back to work and back in business” to restore Victoria’s strong economic reputation.
Victoria has been the hardest hit state in the country due to COVID-19 outbreaks and subsequent lockdowns.
Ms Lovell said the Victorian Liberals’ ‘Back to Work and Back in Business’ economic recovery plan will help the state rebuild from the economic damage done by the virus.
According to Ms Lovell, the plan includes cutting payroll tax until 30 June 2022, establishing a $1B fund to attract manufacturing businesses, and fund ‘Road Trip for Victoria’ vouchers to stimulate Victorian tourism.
“Major infrastructure projects such as the Shepparton Bypass will also play an important role in the region’s economic recovery,” Ms Lovell said.
