The Hon. Anthony Albanese MP - Minister for Infrastructure,
Transport, Regional Development and Local Government
Hi, I’m the Minister for Infrastructure, Transport, Regional
Development and Local Government, Anthony Albanese.
Welcome to this website.
Its aim is to provide you with information on the Government’s
Nation Building Economic Stimulus Package – our response to the
global recession.
The Government is tackling the problem head on. In particular, we
are making an unprecedented investment in the nation’s community and
economic infrastructure, including our vital road and rail networks.
We are supporting Australian jobs for the nation building that
Australia needs. However, we know people have a lot of questions
about why we’ve taken the action we have; why we’re confident that
it will work; and what will be the benefits to you and your
community.
We want to answer them as directly as possible.
So please send in your questions, and your ideas – we want to
hear them.
I won’t be able to answer each question individually, but I hope
to cover any issues you have.
