NSW Premier Gladys Berejiklian, Minister for Transport Andrew Constance and Minister for Western Sydney Stuart Ayres today inspected the site of the future Western Sydney Aerotropolis Station. “The Sydney Metro – Western Sydney Airport project will support 14,000 jobs, including 250 apprentices and inject billions of dollars to the NSW and Australian economies,” Ms Berejiklian said. “Where we are standing today will become a major new transport interchange, right in the heart of the future central business district for the Western Parkland City.” Federal Minister for Population, Cities and Urban Infrastructure Alan Tudge said construction would start this year on the around $11 billion mega-project that would deliver economic support and local jobs. “This city-shaping investment is being fast-tracked to help our economy recover from COVID- 19 and deliver a major stimulus right in the heart of Western Sydney,” Mr Tudge said. “Western Sydney residents will reap the benefits of this investment well before the first train leaves the station.” Exact station locations have now also been confirmed on the 23-kilometre driverless railway line at St Marys, Orchard Hills, Luddenham and two stations at the airport. The Hon Alan Tudge MP, Minister for Population, Cities and Urban Infrastructure WANTIRNA SOUTH, VICTORIA NSW Minister for Transport and Roads Andrew Constance said the tender process has also started to deliver 10 kilometres of twin Metro railway tunnels, with the call for registrations of interest. “Construction starts later this year on a project that will become the transport spine for the Western Parkland City,” Mr Constance said. “The new railway will link residential areas with jobs hubs, and connect travellers from the new airport with the rest of Sydney’s public transport network.” New South Wales Minister for Jobs, Investment, Tourism and Western Sydney Stuart Ayres said the project will be a game changer for the region. “This will provide the backbone for the economic and broader development of the Western Parkland City,” Mr Ayres said. Federal Member for Lindsay Melissa McIntosh said the Australian and NSW Governments are working together in preparation for the airport opening for passenger services. “The huge investment in Western Sydney Infrastructure projects is creating an interconnected city that will enable innovation, support growth and create jobs to build an exciting future for Western Sydney,” Mrs McIntosh said. Supporting the airport and Aerotropolis is a key part of the Western Sydney City Deal – a 20-year agreement signed in March 2018 by the Commonwealth Government, NSW Government and eight Western Sydney councils.

    Gladys Berejiklian Premier Dominic Perrottet Treasurer and Minister for Industrial Relations Brad Hazzard Minister for Health Minister for Medical Research MEDIA RELEASE Monday 12 June 2017 NSW BUDGET: RECORD $100M PALLIATIVE CARE FUNDING The NSW Government will provide record funding for palliative care across NSW to support people suffering terminal illness and their families. Premier Gladys Berejiklian, Treasurer Dominic Perrottet and Minister for Health Brad Hazzard said the upcoming NSW Budget will invest an additional $100 million in palliative care services over the next four years. “From additional nurses in frontline palliative care to funding for 24-hour community care services, this is a package of funding that will have a powerful and tangible impact across the State,” Ms Berejiklian said. “At a time in people’s lives where every moment is incredibly precious, this investment is about providing the care options to lessen the strain on them and their loved ones.” Palliative care aims to improve the quality of life of patients with an active, progressive disease that has little or no prospect of a cure. Mr Perrottet said: “I am incredibly proud that this Budget includes the most serious commitment of any government in NSW history to give people at the end of life’s journey, and their families, the peace, comfort and support they deserve. “We have an obligation to honour the dignity of everyone in our community to the very end, and this funding demonstrates our Government’s commitment to meeting that obligation.” Mr Hazzard said the initiative includes a range of professional training measures. “This package includes training for 300 nurses and allied health staff, 300 scholarships for rural and regional staff to enhance palliative care skills and 30 additional nurses in hospitals, homes and nursing homes,” Mr Hazzard said.

    Gladys Berejiklian Premier of NSW Andrew Constance Minister for Transport and Roads MEDIA RELEASE Tuesday, 16 June 2020 **Vision available to download HEALTH ADVICE ALLOWS PUBLIC TRANSPORT PEAK CAPACITY TO DOUBLE More customers will be welcomed back to the public transport network with an increase in the number of people now allowed on our trains, buses, ferries and trams from July 1, consistent with NSW Health advice. Premier Gladys Berejiklian said health experts had advised that capacity on all modes of transport can now be increased in a COVID safe way. “We are at a stage where we can safely allow more people back on the public transport network,” Ms Berejiklian said. A Waratah train will now be able to carry 68 customers per carriage, up from 32, a typical two-door bus will be able to carry 23 customers, up from 12 and a Freshwater ferry will be able to carry 450 customers, up from 245. “Passengers still need to leave a space or an empty seat between themselves and other customers and continue to find green dots for the safest places to sit and stand. No green dot, no spot,” Ms Berejiklian said. “Employers should continue promoting flexible working arrangements where possible and people are reminded to travel outside the commuter peak hours when they can, or to walk or cycle short distances.” Minister for Transport Andrew Constance said increased cleaning, services and staff will continue to support customers as they return to the public transport network. “Customers will still be seeing hundreds of additional transport staff including Transport and Marshalling Officers across the network as well as the hundreds of cleaners who have already carried out more than 240,000 hours of cleaning since the start of March this year.

    Gladys Berejiklian Dominic Perrottet Premier of NSW Treasurer John Barilaro Brad Hazzard Deputy Premier Minister for Health and Medical Research MEDIA RELEASE Wednesday, 28 July 2021 CERTAINTY FOR THE COMMUNITY AS RESTRICTIONS ADJUSTED AND VACCINES RAMPED UP Given low vaccination rates, the current stay at home orders will remain in place for another four weeks (until Saturday, 28 August at 12.01am) across Greater Sydney including the Central Coast, Blue Mountains, Wollongong and Shellharbour. This extra time will allow NSW residents to significantly increase the uptake of vaccines in areas most affected by the current outbreak and across the state. Premier Gladys Berejiklian said higher vaccination rates and following the health orders are the only way to guarantee the further easing of restrictions. “Though the Pfizer supply is insufficient there is plenty of AstraZeneca, and updated federal health advice recommends anyone aged 18 and over in Greater Sydney should access the jab,” Ms Berejiklian said. “If you are unvaccinated, please organise a jab as soon as you possibly can, especially if you live in an LGA of concern.” Other restriction changes are as follows: From midnight tonight (28 July): In line with exercise rules, Greater Sydney residents including the Central Coast, Blue Mountains, Wollongong and Shellharbour must limit their shopping to within their Local Government Area (LGA) or, if outside their LGA, within 10km from home, unless the item is not available locally. Given localised case numbers, the Parramatta, Campbelltown and Georges River LGAs will join the five existing LGAs of concern which are subject to an Authorised Workers Order.

  • Roads for the 21St Century in Western Sydney
    ROADS FOR THE 21ST CENTURY IN WESTERN SYDNEY am proud to say that the Abbott Coalition Government is honouring I its commitment to build the roads of the 21st century in Western Sydney, working with the NSW Government to deliver a $3.6 billion investment. We have consulted closely with stakeholders from the local government, business, tourism, education and health sectors in formulating this package which will cut travel times and create thousands of jobs. Construction has begun on these projects, with Prime Minister Tony Abbott, Premier Mike Baird, and Treasurer Joe Hockey (pictured), turning the first sod on the $1.6 billion upgrade of the Northern Road, between Narellan Road and the M4 Motorway - a key link that will support the new Western Sydney employment zone and airport. Other key projects include a new motorway from the M7 to the Northern and Bringelly Roads and a $200 million package for local road upgrades. See page 4 for more information on our plans to improve infrastructure and create jobs in Western Sydney.

  • Legislative Assembly- PROOF Page 1
    Tuesday, 4 August 2020 Legislative Assembly- PROOF Page 1 LEGISLATIVE ASSEMBLY Tuesday, 4 August 2020 The Speaker (The Hon. Jonathan Richard O'Dea) took the chair at 12:00. The Speaker read the prayer and acknowledgement of country. [Notices of motions given.] Bills GAS LEGISLATION AMENDMENT (MEDICAL GAS SYSTEMS) BILL 2020 First Reading Bill introduced on motion by Mr Kevin Anderson, read a first time and printed. Second Reading Speech Mr KEVIN ANDERSON (Tamworth—Minister for Better Regulation and Innovation) (12:16:12): I move: That this bill be now read a second time. I am proud to introduce the Gas Legislation Amendment (Medical Gas Systems) Bill 2020. The bill delivers on the New South Wales Government's promise to introduce a robust and effective licensing regulatory system for persons who carry out medical gas work. As I said on 18 June on behalf of the Government in opposing the Hon. Mark Buttigieg's private member's bill, nobody wants to see a tragedy repeated like the one we saw at Bankstown-Lidcombe Hospital. As I undertook then, the Government has taken the steps necessary to provide a strong, robust licensing framework for those persons installing and working on medical gases in New South Wales. To the families of John Ghanem and Amelia Khan, on behalf of the Government I repeat my commitment that we are taking action to ensure no other families will have to endure as they have. The bill forms a key part of the Government's response to licensed work for medical gases that are supplied in medical facilities in New South Wales.
