FED: Keneally wants to ban developer donations
CANBERRA, Dec 4 AAP - New NSW Premier Kristina Keneally says she'll follow through
on her predecessor's promise to ban political donations from developers.
Ms Keneally, who took the reins from dumped leader Nathan Rees on Thursday, says she
supports legislation that aims to eliminate the donations.
"I do support, fully, the steps ... taken to depoliticise planning decisions and remove
any suggestion that donations have a role to play in the government," the former planning
minister told ABC Television on Friday.
"What we will (also) work towards is a fully publicly-funded model of election campaigning."
