The Coalition is spending about 40 per cent of its $28 billion campaign war chest on health and education, as it fights for an historic 12 years in power in NSW.
At least two thirds of the cash splash is capital spending on new projects such as a $1.3 billion redevelopment of Bankstown-Lidcombe Hospital, and $2 billion for a north-south rail link to Western Sydney Airport.Treasurer Dominic Perrottet, whose office supplied the figures, dismissed Labor's claims the government had a secret plan to privatise more state assets to pay for its commitments.
“Either the Berejiklian Government has no intention of keeping their spending promises or a massive new wave of privatisations is imminent if the NSW Liberals and Nationals are re-elected," Mr Park said. Labor has also pledged $500 million to extend early childhood education to every three-year-old, while the Coalition promised a $120 million investment to ensure before and after school care is provided at all public primary schools by 2021.

Labor rules out forming coalition as NSW heads towards minority governmentNSW Opposition Leader Michael Daley says he is not in negotiation with potential crossbench MPs, as another poll predicts neither the Coalition nor Labor will win a majority at next week's state election. Incoming governments do not decide possible coalitions until the numbers come up. It’s the people who will have decided. Knowing the Labor Party, and based on their history, morals and ethics, they may seek to form a coalition with the devil to form minority Government! Labor and the Devil unite! Sounds just about right doesn’t it!!!
