Description:

The Albanese government has been accused of pork-barrelling after an analysis of $1.35 billion in grants found almost 90 per cent of projects were in electorates held or picked up by Labor in the 2022 election.

Labor has defended the grants, saying they were campaign commitments that had to be met.

Today, independent MP Helen Haines on pork-barrelling by the major parties and how the Albanese government rates on accountability and integrity as we head to a federal election.
