Re-elected Tasmanian Premier Paul Lennon has said he will use the majority won in the state election to make the state an Australian leader. "We've made the economy strong again," he said. "We've taken Tasmania from the bottom to the top of the economic pile." He committed his Government to be economically progressive, socially progressive, and to speak out for children. Lennon also expressed a desire to lead the nation economically and socially, and with Aboriginal reconciliation, pledging to "resolve once and for all the Stolen Generation".
