Tasmanian Premier Lara Giddings has called a state election for March 15.
Parliament will be recalled on January 28 to vote on a bill to facilitate the Bell Bay pulp mill.
Giddings has also sacked the two Greens ministers, Nick McKim and Cassy O’Connor, bringing to an end the formal Labor-Greens alliance established by former premier David Bartlett after the 2010 election.
