ALP Draft Election Platform

With the Victorian election scheduled for 25 November 2006, each of the major parties is progressively making their policy platforms visible to the community. Today's edition of The Sunday Age reports that the Victorian ALP has issued its ~200 page draft policy platform, called Rising to the Challenges in advance of the May State ALP Conference.

At the time of writing no copy of this document was available online, but we will publish a link as soon as it becomes available.

The Sunday Age reports that in the health section of the platform, the ALP commits "to reducing waiting times for emergency treatment, elective surgery and dental care".
