  • NSW Planning Minister Has Opportunity to Set The
    NSW Planning Minister has opportunity to set the Framework for the State’s Future Wednesday, 01 April 2015 The new Planning Minister in NSW, Rob Stokes, has a great opportunity to restructure the planning system to ensure the state’s future, says the Urban Taskforce. “The Urban Taskforce congratulates Rob Stokes on becoming the NSW Planning Minister and we look forward to a fruitful relationship,” says the Urban Taskforce CEO, Chris Johnson. “We have worked effectively with Rob in his previous portfolio and we appreciate his detailed understanding of the planning portfolio and the importance of balancing community issues with industry productivity.” “There are a number of reform areas in planning that did not reach a satisfactory solution during the last term of the government and Minister Stokes will need to get hold of this unfinished business quickly to bed down the governance structure and the legislative framework. The previous White Paper on Planning Reform raised the need to rethink zoning, strategic planning, to extend complying development and generally simplify our complex planning system. A crucial issue will be how communities are constructively involved in the planning process without frustrating potential investment in much needed new housing.” “The new minister will also need to work with the Minister for Local Government on the potential reforms of local government so that an effective system evolves. This will include the urgent establishment of the Greater Sydney Commission and how this body is able to ensure the delivery

  • Gladys Berejiklian Dominic Perrottet Brad Hazzard MEDIA RELEASE
    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.

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.

    The Hon Gabrielle Upton MP ~,,1 Minister for the Environment Minister for Local Government NSW-- Minister for Heritage GOVERNMENT D0C18/451414 Committee Secretary Senate Standing Committees on Environment and Communications PO Box 6100 Parliament House Canberra ACT 2600 By email: [email protected] Dear Committee Secretary I write to provide the NSW Government's submission into the Commonwealth's Environment and Communications References Committee's inquiry into Australia's faunal extinction crisis. The NSW Government is committed to improving conservation outcomes for our native species. On 25 August 2017, the Biodiversity Conservation Act 2016 commenced in NSW to enable sustainable land management and development. As part of these reforms, we have invested $240 million over five years to 2020- 21 and $70 million each following year in a new land conservation program delivered by the NSW Biodiversity Conservation Trust. As part of the land management reforms, we have also commenced the NSW Biodiversity Offset Scheme that requires proponents to consider how they will avoid, minimise and offset the impacts of proposed development on biodiversity. The NSW Government has also invested $100 million over five years through the Saving our Species program to secure our threatened plants and animals in the wild for the next 100 years. Further detail on these reforms and how they are contributing to protecting important native species as well as other actions can be found in the attached submission. The attached submission I look forward to continuing to work with the Commonwealth Government to ensure positive conservation outcomes for Australia's native fauna. Youny s19cerely Gabrielle Upton MP Minister for the Environment Minister for Local Government Minister for Heritage 24 .

  • Hon Natalie Ward
    The Hon. NATALIE WARD (18:08): It is an honour to be in this place and a privilege to speak for the first time. I am humbled to have the opportunity to serve as a member of the Legislative Council. I will serve with humility and courage. I cannot claim to arrive here from a disadvantaged background. I was blessed with a loving, stable, happy family home. My parents worked hard to provide me with an excellent education. It was strong family values and love that allowed me to develop my faith, my work ethic, and a strong desire to serve. I would like to thank my parents, Dianne and David Ward, for igniting my passion to serve. My work as a lawyer and political adviser later exposed me to the reality of the hardships faced by people from many different cultural and social backgrounds. That experience has only further ignited my desire to change things for the better. Many an inaugural speech has contained a moving quote by a revered member of this planet, and I am not going to disrupt the status quo—well, not tonight. It was Martin Luther King who said: Life's most persistent question is, "What are you doing for others?" More exciting than that statement was the resulting holiday in honour of King—a day of service where everyone stops to do something for someone else. King was right when he acknowledged that service makes the world a better place. I acknowledge the volunteers in this State. I acknowledge those in the Rural Fire Service [RFS] and Rotary clubs, on Parents and Citizens boards, lifesavers on patrol, and volunteers at local Shute Shield Rugby clubs—those who passionately commit themselves to their communities.

  • 181101 Gladys Berejiklian, Mark Speakman and Troy Grant Med
    Gladys Berejiklian Premier of NSW Mark Speakman Attorney General Troy Grant Minister for Police and Emergency Services MEDIA RELEASE Thursday, 1 November 2018 STRONGER SENTENCES FOR STARTING A BUSHFIRE Starting a bushfire this summer could land offenders in prison for more than two decades, with the NSW Government to introduce a significantly tougher maximum sentence for the crime. Premier Gladys Berejiklian, Attorney General Mark Speakman and Minister for Police and Emergency Services Troy Grant today announced the Government will seek to increase the maximum jail sentence for NSW’s targeted bushfire offence from 14 years to 21 years. “Deliberately starting a bushfire is a selfish and senseless act that can have catastrophic consequences, potentially wiping out land and homes, and causing injury or death to residents and livestock,” said Ms Berejiklian. The tougher penalty to be introduced into Parliament in November will apply to the specific bushfire offence under section 203E of the Crimes Act of intentionally causing a fire and being reckless about it spreading on public land or someone else’s property. “Such thoughtless acts place lives, homes, businesses, and entire communities a risk. These new penalties will give courts the power to impose tough sentences in line with community expectations,” Mr Speakman said. The Attorney General will also ask the Sentencing Council of NSW to: Consider if the five-year standard non-parole period for the bushfire offence should be increased; and Review the maximum penalties for a range of arson offences, including destroying or damaging properties by means of fire. “The reforms will provide a strong deterrent to would-be arsonists while more than 99 per cent of the State is gripped by drought.

  • John Barilaro Brad Hazzard Deputy Premier Minister for Health and Medical Research
    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.
