00:00A LORD MAYOR'S INTERVENTION.
00:04We're not in the 50s, we're in 2024 and local government does nearly as much as the state
00:09government does.
00:10CONVAT SCARLIS ACCUSING BOTH PARTIES OF NOT PROVIDING ENOUGH DETAIL AROUND THEIR PLANS
00:16FOR LOCAL GOVERNMENT AFTER THE ELECTION.
00:19If we really want an effective, functional local government in the Northern Territory,
00:25it has to be supported by both parties.
00:28BOTH LEADERS OUT TO MARK THE FIRST DAY OF EARLY VOTING, DEFENDING THEIR PLANS ON THE
00:33ISSUE.
00:34I get criticised for, you've been in government for 8 years, what are you doing?
00:37We're doing what we're continuing to do with local government in the Northern Territory.
00:41Legand understands that the CLP is focused on totally reforming the delivery of local
00:46government in the bush.
00:48FROM THE TWO WOMEN VYING TO BE CHIEF MINISTER, TO THE WOMAN WHO USED TO BE.
00:52NATASHA FILES AMONG CANDIDATES MANNING THE PRE-POLL, TRYING TO SHEPHERD EARLY BIRDS TO
00:57THEIR FLOCK.
00:58I don't think Territorians have forgotten what the CLP did do and the sell-offs of assets
01:03and the cost of living increases under them.
01:05I've had lots of residents, long-term residents, including long-term Indigenous residents,
01:10who said, look, we always voted Labor, we probably always were, but not this time.
01:15ALSO IN THE MIX, MINOR PARTIES AND INDEPENDENTS.
01:17It's time for change and people are just saying they're sick of Labor, they don't trust Liberals
01:22and they're going, they're going to vote for an Independent, so we're really excited.
01:25We need change in the Territory and people are seeing the Greens as the change that we
01:29need because we don't take corporate donations.
01:32BALLOTS ARE NOW BEING CAST AT EARLY VOTING CENTRES LIKE THIS ONE HERE IN DARWIN'S NORTHERN
01:36SUBURBS WITH VOTERS KEEN TO HAVE THEIR SAY ON THE BIG ISSUES AFFECTING THE TERRITORY.
01:42High rate of decline.
01:43Climate and particularly using, yeah, land resources for the right reasons, yeah.
01:50I work in healthcare, I'd really like to see more put into that space.
01:54VOTERS NOW HAVING THE FINAL SAY ON WHO WILL RUN THE TERRITORY FOR THE NEXT FOUR YEARS.
