Leases to help Qld jobless rate: Nicholls

Written By Unknown on Kamis, 06 November 2014 | 22.24

THE Queensland treasurer has defended the state's worsening jobless rate, saying the government's plan to lease state assets will help improve it.

BUREAU of Statistics figures show the state's seasonally adjusted unemployment rate reached seven per cent in October - up from 6.3 per cent the previous month - making it the highest in the country.

Treasurer Tim Nicholls said that despite recent volatility in ABS data, more than 44,000 jobs had been created in Queensland since the 2012 state election."We also know that Queensland's economy is expected to grow at six per cent next year, which means thousands of new jobs and new income for Queenslanders," he said.Mr Nicholls said the Newman government's plan to use the proceeds from leasing state assets to reduce state debt and invest in infrastructure would also help create more than 33,000 jobs.Shadow treasurer Curtis Pitt described the figures as sobering."This is difficult for people in Queensland and the Newman government is not doing what they said they were going to do," he told reporters in Brisbane on Thursday."So much for things getting back on track."
