THE ANDREWS LABOR GOVERNMENTS

FIRST 100 DAYS:

GETTING ON WITH IT

FIRST 100 DAYS:

GETTING ON WITH IT
We havent wasted a minute.
I took action on the ambulance crisis and sent
the paramedics pay case to the independent
umpire.

They elected a Labor Government to build

the projects our state needs and transform
public transport.
Were getting on with it.

I unlocked the doors at the TAFE campus in

Lilydale which were closed to a generation of
kids in the outer East.

Its my privilege to present you with some

of the highlights from our first 100 days in
office.

We announced a landmark inquiry into health

fears at the Fiskville training centre, to give
firefighters the answers they deserve.

All of them will help make our state stronger,

fairer and better.

We told Victorians the truth about ambulance

response times in their local area, releasing the
data that was kept secret for years.

All of them are promises kept.

And this is just the start.

And that was just week one.

The Victorian people elected a Labor
Government to end the ambulance crisis and
fix our health system.
They elected a Labor Government to create
jobs, save TAFE and give every child every
chance.
