In short:
Tasmania’s Liberal government will consider selling off government businesses and assets including Metro Tasmania, the Land Titles Office and the Motor Accident Insurance Board to reduce the state’s spiralling debt levels.
Premier Jeremy Rockliff says it “stands to reason if they can provide a better outcome for Tasmanians, why keep them under government ownership”.
What’s next?
Tasmania’s net debt is forecast to reach almost $10 billion by 2027–28.
