Liberal candidate for Camden, Mick Willing, welcomed the plan outlined today by the NSW Liberal Leader Kellie Sloane to support families, back jobs and get NSW back to the top of the pack.
Mr Willing, pictured above, said Camden businesses and families would be big beneficiaries of the NSW Liberals’ practical plan focused on cost-of-living relief, creating the conditions for businesses to invest and create jobs, and delivering the infrastructure that our communities need.
“People across this community have been telling me that despite working harder than ever, they are finding the goal posts moving further and further back,’’ he said.
“Our community is paying the price for Labor’s bad decisions and poor economic management, and Camden deserves better.’’
Mr Willing recently won Liberal Party preselection to be their candidate in Camden at the next NSW state election due in March next year.
“Local businesses have seen a drop in customers, themselves struggling with the cost-of-living crisis, while their bills keep going up and up,’’ he says.
“That’s why we’re seeing thousands of small businesses closing, and thousands more having to consider reducing staff.
“In her Budget Reply, Kellie Sloane outlined a practical plan to help families get ahead and stay ahead, support businesses to grow and create jobs, and build a stronger future for our state.”
Liberal Leader Kellie Sloane will lead a government that delivers practical cost of living relief by:
- Delivering a $100 car registration rebate.
- Locked in fuel price guarantee, giving motorists certainty.
- Putting downward pressure on household and business power bills by increasing energy supply, improving energy security and generating more power closer to where it is used, reducing reliance on costly transmission infrastructure.
The Liberals say their plan will get the economy growing again by creating the most competitive payroll tax regime of any Australian state by:
- Raising the annual payroll tax threshold from $1.2 million to $1.5 million.
- Lowering the payroll tax rate from 5.45 per cent to 4.75 per cent for businesses with a total Australian payroll below $10 million.
- Introducing CPI indexation to both thresholds to eliminate bracket creep.
Mick Willing said that while Labor has failed to deliver for Western Sydney, the Liberals will negotiate a new Western Sydney City Deal to deliver the infrastructure that our community needs.
“The Liberal plan will help deliver relief for families, support for businesses to grow and create jobs, and build the infrastructure that Camden needs.”
