I wrote this in November 2019.The article below by Rachel Baxendale in The Australian reports on the findings of the Victorian Auditor General. Andrews is trying to make public servants pay for major project cost blow outs with pay rises no greater than 2% at the same time Andrews accepted an 11.8% pay rise. Nurses, allied health workers, doctors, police, ambo's and other workers are being sacrificed to cover sweetheart deals for construction and infrastructure workers. This is the world according to Daniel. When government workers have had enough Victoria will grind to a halt. The increase in public sector employees is unsustainable with revenues severely constrained due to a 40% reduction in residential property transactions crimping stamp duty revenues. Victoria sold its last remaining large asset, The Port of Melbourne for about $9 billion in 2016/17 but has few assets left to sell apart from Motor Registry and Water utilities.

Then there's all those "consultants " some of which are unaudited expenditure by government departments.
