"The Rudd Government’s $42 billion Nation Building and Jobs Plan will support jobs and provide significant new investment in rural and regional communities.
The historic Nation Building and Jobs Plan is a further step in the Government’s response to the severe global recession, ongoing challenges for rural Australia and falling demand in many of Australia’s key export markets.
Treasury estimates the Plan will support up to 90,000 jobs this financial year and next."
