The Commonwealth has proposed a new funding model which spares Queensland from further GST funding, however the State Government has criticised how the $518 million funding difference would be made.
Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk questioned how Treasurer Scott Morrison would make up this difference, amid fears the state could lose funding from non-GST grants.
Opposition Treasury Spokesman, Tim Mander, said he “backs the federal Coalition’s credibility” in managing the economy.
