The opposition leader has reiterated his plans to shrink the public service as part of his plan to curb government spending, but he declined to specify exactly where the cuts would come from.

Peter Dutton has vowed to cut overall government spending if elected to government, reiterating his plans to scale back the public service.

Labor has called on the opposition leader to reveal the details of his plan, warning that fewer public servants would mean longer wait times to access services.

Mr Dutton said he would not detail exactly where the spending cuts would come from until after the federal election.

    The coalition literally does this every election. “Trust us, we’re better economic managers” is all they say. No specifics, then when they win they gut services used by people they don’t like, aka health, education and welfare services.

    Never forget the 2014 liberal budget.
