All we want is a fair go

What a joy to be living on the Central Coast, or is it?

It seems that the Independent Pricing and Remuneration Tribunal (IPART) believes that the square metre rate for a jetty on Brisbane Water is the same as for Pittwater.

Heavens above! Have they ever been up here?

The cost of having a jetty here on the Central Coast is double what IPART originally intended.

Why?

Recent articles and letters to the editor have highlighted the issue and I have to ask, are our local State Government Members really putting up arguments supporting their constituents who live on the Brisbane Water?

It seems to me that the latest IPART report continues to be flawed, inaccurate and discriminatory against those on the Central Coast.

All we on the Coast ask for is a fair go, a reasonable and equitable approach by Government to pricing the rental for jetties.
