The 2 committees chaired by non-government members were more active and held more public meetings that the Government members - combined. WHAT IS RORT REPORT? NSW Labor has launched the Rort Report to expose wasteful and unnecessary spending by the arrogant and incompetent NSW Government.

Over the next four years we will be exposing all of the extravagant and excessive expenditure by the Liberals and Nationals – and all of the programs that should be funded if this government wasn’t so incompetent and had the right priorities.

We can have good schools, better hospitals, drought relief, comprehensive community services – these things are not too expensive, but only if we don’t waste money on rorts, pork-barrels and mishaps.

We want to hear from members of the public and public service who can anonymously tip us off on all the ways the NSW Government is wasting money. MAKE AN ANONYMOUS TIP-OFF Go to rortreport.net
