From inside the Qld Govt there is a lot of hand wringing as they feel duped with regard to their $200M commitment via QIDC and payroll tax etc concession. Apart from keeping VA HQ [now moved to smaller shared digs with Flight Centre] the other commitments involved regional services staying and no loss of Qld jobs! The last one is already broken and that, in this election cycle [October 2020] is dynamite.
