Miles secretly spends millions on “Hydro Hoax” but still refuses to reveal cost

7th May 2024

At a time when Queenslanders are struggling to pay their power bills, the Palaszczuk-Miles Government has secretly spent more than $111 million on a project with no business case.

Labor is keeping Queenslanders in the dark on how much the project will cost and how much more we’ll pay every time we switch the lights on.

It's already been reported the Pioneer Burdekin “Hydro Hoax” could cost upwards of $18 billion, driving up Queenslanders’ power bills even further.

The “Hydro Hoax” would see Queenslanders foot the bill for generations to come.

Labor has been secretly spending millions of dollars on a project with no business case or Environmental Impact Statement.

Queenslanders deserve better than the chaos and crisis of the Palaszczuk-Miles Government.

Only the LNP has the Right Priorities for Queensland’s Future, including delivering affordable, reliable and sustainable energy.
