Tasmania's deeply concerning NAPLAN results confirm that after 10 years in office, the Rockliff-Liberal Government is failing our students, with no plan to fix the deep-seated issues in our education system. As a former teacher, I am deeply concerned to read today that Tasmanian NAPLAN results were the worst in 18 of 20 categories (excluding the Northern Territory), and below the national average in every category. Across all 20 categories, one in seven Tasmanian students need additional support - which is particularly concerning given the fact our education system and hard-working teachers and support staff are already stretched to limit.

MANILA -The cost of constructing and developing geothermal power plants will remain high globally compared with other power renewable technologies as countries race to achieve carbon neutrality, according to a report by Fitch Solutions. Fitch, through its unit BMI, said equipment required to build geothermal power plants were costly and limited across the globe, given that the sector was 'much smaller' than other sectors such as solar and wind power. In its report, the think tank noted the cost of installing geothermal power plants had risen over the past 10 years, from $2,714 per kilowatt in 2010 to $3,991 per kilowatt in 2021.
