Description[?]:
| The Popular Party believe that our child's deserve to have a world-class education. To do that, we will have to raise the education budget. To do this without raising taxes, budget efficiencies will have to be found in other areas. In this budget, we have avoided making significant savings in ministries which are important to other parties such as health and social services, enviroment and tourism and defence. We hope this budget will achieve cross-party support. Julie Smith Popular Party Finance Spokeswoman |
