It is built around three goals: reduce crime, lower costs and deliver a government that works. It is led by Jess Wilson, the Victorian Liberal Leader, and Danny O’Brien, Leader of The Nationals.

Who is Jess Wilson?

Jess Wilson MP is the Leader of the Opposition in Victoria, the Victorian Liberal Leader and Shadow Treasurer. She is the Member for Kew. If the Liberals and Nationals win the election, she has said she will declare Victoria back open for business on 29 November.

When is the Victorian state election?

The 2026 Victorian state election is on Saturday 28 November 2026. You can check your enrolment and your voting options with the Victorian Electoral Commission.

What is the Contract with Victoria?

It is a written commitment, signed by Jess Wilson and Danny O’Brien, that Our Plan will deliver less crime in the community; lower costs, lower taxes and lower government fees and charges; a more transparent and accountable government; more investment in health, education and local infrastructure; and a 25% Fair Share Guarantee for regional Victoria.

Will a Liberal and Nationals Government increase taxes?

No. A Liberal and Nationals Government will guarantee no new or increased taxes. The plan scraps the Emergency Services Tax, the Schools Tax and the GP Tax, exempts first home buyers from stamp duty on homes up to $1 million and lifts the land tax threshold back to $300,000.

How will the plan be paid for?

By reducing debt and ending wasteful spending. That includes pursuing the $15 billion funnelled to the CFMEU through an enhanced Royal Commission and new follow the money powers, saving $22 billion with a hiring freeze on back office roles, stopping the $1 billion being spent on Labor’s Treaty process, ending waste like $13 million on machete bins, and fixing infrastructure cost blowouts.

The ten year economic plan returns the budget to a cash surplus by 2032.

Crime and safety

How will the Liberals and Nationals reduce crime in Victoria?

By recruiting 3,000 more police, reopening more than 40 police stations, returning PSOs to train stations, introducing Break Bail, Face Jail and Adult Crime, Adult Time, giving police stronger pursuit powers and investing $100 million in early intervention and rehabilitation. Read the plan to reduce crime.

3,000 more police on the beat. The plan fills existing vacancies and funds an additional 1,500 officers, by streamlining recruitment, expanding training, recruiting from other jurisdictions and improving retention.

Yes. PSOs will return to all 119 stations where they were removed, and 200 additional PSOs will be recruited. PSO strike teams will also patrol high-risk shopping centres and precincts, with powers to detect and remove knives and machetes.

What is Break Bail, Face Jail?

A plan to end the revolving door bail system. It introduces a one-strike rule so repeat offending on bail for 25 serious offences means bail is refused, for youth and adult offenders alike. Bail applications for those offences move to the County Court, breach of bail becomes a Schedule 2 offence, and the youth exemption for breaching bail conditions is removed.

$5 billion to rebuild, repair and resurface roads, eliminating one million potholes. A new agency, Better Roads Victoria, will rebuild the engineering expertise lost when VicRoads was abandoned, and new and upgraded roads will reduce congestion, from the full duplication of Donnybrook Road to the Thompsons Road extension and a new Swan Hill bridge. The plan also delivers 25 new hybrid electric trains for the Melton and Wyndham Vale lines and a review of the bus network.

Will there be a cap on road tolls?

Yes. Victorian families, tradies and small businesses will pay no more than $50 a week in tolls for two years from 1 July 2027. The cap applies to cars, light commercial vehicles and small business fleets of up to five vehicles.
