New South Wales Shadow Treasurer Damien Tudehope says he is expecting NSW Labor to hand down a budget that delivers for the union bosses. Mr Tudehope told Sky News Australia that the union bosses have “supported Labor’s rise” to the Treasury benches. “What we do see is that there is potentially $10 billion dollars in unfunded wage commitments. “Which have got to be met by the government. “And most of the cuts which are being made today for the purposes of making sure that those commitments to the union movement can be met.”

NSW Labor government’s budget will be ‘for the union movement’Shadow NSW Treasurer Damien Tudehope says the Minns government’s budget, to be handed down on Tuesday, is “for the union movement”. NSW Treasurer Daniel Mookhey will deliver Labor’s first state budget in 13 years on Tuesday. In a cost of living crisis, the focus is on what will be cut to pay for new spending, like public sector wage rises, and whether Labor can change the trajectory of the state’s debt. “The only promises I think you can expect the government not to break tomorrow are the ones that they’ve made to the unions,” Mr Tudehope told Sky News Political Editor Andrew Clennell. “This is a budget for the union movement, not necessarily a budget for the future of this state and the vision.”

New South Wales Treasurer to hand down state budgetThe News South Wales budget will be handed down by Treasurer of New South Wales Daniel Mookhey on Tuesday. Since winning the March election Mr Mookhey has spoken about the challenges Australia’s largest state economy is facing and has watered down expectations. Sky News Business Reporter Edward Boyd has sat down with the NSW Treasurer to discuss the budget. “It signals a change for New South Wales – we’re getting on the job with giving the state the fresh start that it voted for,” Mr Mookhey said. “This budget is going to be balanced, it absolutely threads the needle between repairing the state’s finances and freeing up resources that we can reinvest in people’s schools, in people's hospitals, in people’s police stations – and other critical services. “We are doing budget repair responsibly and we are doing it so we can get on with fixing the state’s essential services just as we were elected to do.”
