You will find that the new Victorian Labor Government has put the brakes on every project and administrative decision of the previous Government, and I do mean everything.

The Tyabb grant, the Point Nepean lease and the East/West link are just the tip of the iceberg.

I know of one sporting club that has spent Ten years of planning, design and negotiation time over new facilities, had it recommended to the Minister by the bureaucrats, had the liberal Minister sign off on it …..and now, all of a sudden, the final procedural steps (a "mere formality" they were told) won't be taken as the bureaucrats have apparently changed their position at their new masters whim. There goes $20 million in investment, Ten years of work by the club and about 40 jobs as well.

The site they operate from will probably now become a centre for Lesbian interpretive dance or be sold to a property developer mate.
