| QUEENSLAND’S major political parties will be handed almost $4.5 million in taxpayer-funded booty to brainstorm new policies before next year’s election.
However, there is no guarantee they’ll come up with a single fresh idea, or even make the effort to try.
The Newman Government has, for the first time, detailed the formula for calculating new “policy development” payments, with the Liberal National Party the major beneficiary.
Labor and Katter’s Australian Party will also snare a share of the policy pot of gold however Palmer’s United Party, the Greens and independents will not get a cent.
