New ACT Greens leader puts govt on notice over years of 'poor performance'

Newly confirmed ACT Greens leader Jo Clay says her party will not put up with poor performance from the government as her members now consider whether to strike a new supply-and-confidence agreement with Labor.

Ms Clay said whether the Greens came to a new written agreement would be decided between the party's membership, the community and Labor.

"I think we are definitely in a phase when we need to be holding the government to account for its performance. It has not been delivering the services that Canberrans need and expect and we have seen poor performance for a number of years now," Ms Clay said in her first press conference since winning about 60 per cent support in a member ballot for the leadership.
