  • 12 November 2020 – New Lambton Public School
    PARLIAMENT OF NEW SOUTH WALES LEGISLATIVE ASSEMBLY FIRST SESSION OF THE FIFTY-SEVENTH PARLIAMENT Motion ___________ 12 November 2020 NEW LAMBTON PUBLIC SCHOOL Ms SONIA HORNERY (Wallsend) (12:05:46): That this House: (1) Notes a recent change to the intake boundary of New Lambton Public School will see six streets very close to the school and four students excluded from attending the school. (2) Notes 68 families attending the school live outside the catchment area. (3) Calls on the Minister for Education and Early Childhood Learning to change the boundaries to include these six streets. There is no denying that New Lambton Public School is above capacity. Last year I met with Federation of Parents and Citizens Associations of NSW representatives and wrote to the Minister for Education and Early Childhood Learning requesting action to reduce enrolment numbers. As a result of that action, the department changed enrolment boundaries. But in June this year the education department changed the boundaries without any proper community consultation. An online survey asked for feedback. The problem was that the Sydney‑centric generated consultation was only shared with the current school community. No attempt was made to make parents who live in the streets that were proposed to change aware of the survey. Does that make sense? No. My office was informed of the survey just 24 hours before it was due to close. The survey was extended after our intervention. Thankfully, my office and a group of dedicated parents made contact with as many residents as possible, giving them an opportunity to have their say.

  • New South Wales Parliament Legislative Assembly Land And
    New South Wales Parliament Legislative Assembly Land and Property Information NSW (Authorised Transaction) Bill 2016 20 September 2016 Ms TRISH DOYLE (Blue Mountains): I speak in debate on the Land and Property Information NSW (Authorised Transaction) Bill 2016. The bill represents yet another instance of this conservative Government frantically rifling through pages of the public estate in search of something else it can flog off. The land titling and registration system is one of the oldest and most important bureaucratic institutions in the colony of New South Wales. It has stood since 1863, when the Torrens title system came into being, and has evolved from the historic granting of land title in convict days to the modern, precise and reliable system that all citizens now rely upon to track the transfer of real property ownership in this State. Not only does it provide an essential public service and handle sensitive, valuable information on behalf of the citizens of this State, but also it returns a tidy profit to the coffers of the New South Wales Treasury. It is a sad fact of life that under Casino Mike's dictatorship, whenever it is discovered that a public sector office is generating some small profit to the taxpayer — Mr Lee Evans: Point of order: For several hours we have been listening to the ramblings of Labor members, but I will not accept the misuse of the Premier's title. Mr Assistant Speaker, I ask that you direct the member for Blue Mountains to use the Premier's correct title. The ASSISTANT SPEAKER: Order! I uphold the point of order.
