Order of Business. - Budget Statement: Motion.

 

I am not sure if the Minister has done nearly enough in the area of inflation. He projects the effect of price increases will be 0.4%. It does not seem high and inflation is coming down. However, it has a long way to go before we are competitive again. If there is one area that our future depends on, it is competitiveness. We have not recognised the needs of this area. The Minister's heart is in the right place.
