Nicola Willis suggests state budget cuts could lead to cheaper markets
What happened
Nicola Willis stated that cutting state budgets could result in lower market prices. Willis, a free market advocate, believes that if the state reduces its involvement, the market will step in and provide services more cheaply. Her austerity budget previously shifted public services to private contractors, with 46% of the public health budget moving to the private sector.
