In short:
A motion has passed parliament calling on the Tasmanian government to release updated cost estimates for the Hobart stadium.
The Greens say rising global construction costs linked to the Middle East conflict could cause the stadium’s $1.13 billion price estimate to blow out.
What’s next?
The motion, which is not binding, urges the government to table an updated cost estimate by August 11.
And the government opposed this important motion because of what? #nonewstadium. @kristiejohnstonmp.bsky.social @indy4franklin.bsky.social
