Infrastructure money flows to Tasmania

Tasmanian councils are $8 million better off, after yesterday's Federal Government handout in Canberra.The money was allocated to Australia's 500 or so municipalities as a part of the Commonwealth's financial stimulus package, to be spent on what they call 'quality of life infrastructure' projects.Mayor of the Glamorgan Spring Bay Council on the East Coast Bertrand Cadart says the council will receive $100,000, which is likely to spent on health, aged care and tourism infrastructure. The good news, he said was that Prime Minister indicated that there will be more next year.
