Letters: AS THE first Queensland Labor Party budget looms, the LNP has launched a real economic plan reinforcing the LNP as the stable and experienced alternative to the Labor Government.

The LNP has a real plan for a sustainable and growing economy that creates jobs and supports a diverse range of industries in Queensland.

Our economic plan is focused on five core priority areas: agriculture, tourism, resources, construction and manufacturing, and services and knowledge-based industries.

By focusing on these priority areas we can still deliver the jobs Queenslanders need but also capitalise on the shift of many world economies towards services and knowledge based industries.

We would work with the private sector to build the infrastructure our growing state needs.

Our commitment to regional Queensland is stronger than ever and under an LNP Government we would maintain and enhance our 'Royalties for the Regions' program.

All cabinet decisions would include a cost of living impact statement so the full impacts on households could be taken into account.

Only the LNP has the experienced team and a real plan for the Queensland economy.
