The government handed down it's pre-election budget on Tuesday night, one that has been described by opposing parties as a budget for the next six weeks.

For Tasmania, funding for roads and rail was a stand-out with $639.9 million to be provided towards priority projects over 2022-23.

The government will provide $9.3 million over two years towards Energising Tasmania - a fee-free training program to encourage Tasmanians to develop skills needed for the energy sector.

But the budget papers did not include any funding allocations towards two key Tasmanian energy projects, Battery of the Nation and Marinus Link.

The state also missed out on a slice of $7.1 billion from a new fund for regions under the Energy Security and Regional Development Plan.

There will be $2.6 billion for projects in the Northern Territory, $1.7 billion for projects in North and Central Queensland, $1.5 billion for projects in the Pilbara region in Western Australia, and $750 million for projects in the Hunter region in New South Wales.

For the Northern Territory, $300 million will be provided for low emissions LNG and hydrogen production in Darwin.

There will be $100 million provided to make the Port of Newcastle "hydrogen ready".

Franklin Labor MHR Julie Collins said it was shameful the government had not recognised Tasmania in the $7.1 billion fund.

A budget allocation of $128.5 million for environmental law reform will result in cuts to environmental protections and fast-tracked projects in natural areas, Greens senator Peter Whish-Wilson says.

Senator Whish-Wilson said under the reforms, $62.3 million would be assigned towards regional plans, with locations yet to be announced, and $52.5 million over five years as part of a deregulation program to reduce regulatory burdens for industry.

"That's a real worry because we know they're trying to remove recovery plans for 150 threatened species, including the Tasmanian devil and the Tasmanian giant kelp forests," he said.

"They have a legal responsibility to provide funding to assist in the recovery of those species."

Senator Whish-Wilson said the government's sales pitch for the budget read as if it was a budget for the next six weeks.

"It's just designed to literally win votes," he said.

"There is very little in here for long term reform."

Senator Whish-Wilson welcomed additional funding for Freycinet National Park under the National Tourism Icons Program.

Labor has claimed additional money in the budget for previously announced Tasmanian projects is covering up increased expenses associated with delays.

Federal Labor infrastructure spokeswoman Carol Brown said $56 million for the delayed Sideling project, promised by the last federal election, was on the list of cost blowouts, as was the additional $1 million for the Albert Hall redevelopment.

Federal Labor agriculture spokeswoman Julie Collins said the $13.7 million for the Don Irrigation project, also promised before the 2019 election, was required due to a cost blowout.

Labor senator Helen Polley said Tasmanians should be sceptical about budget promises as the government had not fully delivered on its commitments from its 2019 budget.

She said the government needed to outline a plan to ease cost of living pressures and for secure well-paid jobs for Tasmanians.
