Jacinta Allan, Inaugural Speech, 3 November 1999 – Short Memory – Her Words Mean Nothing!

“The catchment management tax is a powerful symbol to country Victorians of the previous government’s attitude.

It is levied on country people alone. It is double taxation that charges people for government functions they have already paid for.

The tax makes country people foot the bill for the government’s withdrawal of funding from environment works.”
