Here is some of what Labor, the Liberals and the Greens have promised so far.

The state of the Tamar estuary is a feature of each election campaign, be it state or federal.

Labor this week committed $8 million towards improving the health of the waterway - part of which matches the Liberal's $4 million commitment for dredging.

The party has also developed a 10-year strategy for the state's roads network which it says will involve a multi-billion dollar investment and create thousands of jobs.

Labor announced earlier in the week that it would put $31.8 million over six years into a program which would see each primary school-aged student at a public school get a free healthy lunch each day.

Labor also announced a $45.5 million plan to employ an additional 350 teachers over six years to provide one-on-one teaching or teaching in small groups for students who needed extra help with literacy.

The plan will include the recruitment of 20 more speech pathologists in schools.

The party last week promised to put $195.7 million in the budget over six years, above what is already funded, to build 2000 more affordable homes across the state.

It has promised to invest $17.5 million into clearing a large maintenance backlog in the state's social housing properties.

Labor pledged to abolish land tax rates for properties valued at under $100,000 and provide substantial tax cuts for properties worth up to $1 million.

As expected health won the attention of all parties early on in the campaign.

Labor has pledged $197 million to upgrade rural hospitals across the state and for care to be extended at 30 Community Health Centres to 24 hours, seven days a week.

It has promised $137 million to employ 65 more permanent doctors statewide to address the elective surgery and outpatient waiting list.

The party has also promised to recruit 144 more full-time paramedics.

It will invest $40 million to put mental health workers in every public school at a primary and high school level if elected.

Labor has promised to fund free TAFE courses to the tune of $40 million in areas where there were known skills shortages like in construction, hospitality, and the aged care and disability services sector.

It has made a $18.8 million commitment for a system whereby students are provided with a pathway to work and $17.5 million to connect other job seekers to employment through 10 regional job hubs.
