Today the West Australian reports that the much-vaunted City Deal which will help breathe new life in Perth has been put on hold.

Alan Tudge had all the time in world to announce a signed Perth City Deal – the Memorandum of Understanding was announced more than two years ago.

Even before COVID-19, stakeholders have long been claiming that the Perth City Deal was at a standstill.

The City Deal would provide the urgent stimulus to repair the economy amid the coronavirus pandemic.

If Alan Tudge was on top of things, the deal should have been already signed.

Alan Tudge is all talk and no action when it comes to delivering infrastructure. As with other City Deals they are very good ideas being very badly implemented.
