Sample submission on Greater Sydney Parklands Trust Bill

Over the summer a parliamentary committee will review the Greater Sydney Parklands Trust Bill in detail before a vote is taken in the Upper House.

This proposed new law could wind back protections contained in the Callan Park Act that prevent the commercialisation and privatisation of our park.

The committee will promote debate on the proposed changes, give our community a chance to be heard by all political parties and ensure increased accountability. This committee process is our best chance to convince them that locals want to protect greenspace including Callan Park.

Please make a submission to the committee by Sunday 16 Jan.

FERRIES AT ANNANDALE AND WEST BALMAIN

Imagine hopping on a ferry at Annandale or West Balmain and being in the heart of the city within minutes.

In 2020, we won the campaign for a Glebe ferry. Now, we have the opportunity to connect more of our area to the ferry network. New ferries at Annandale and West Balmain will provide a faster, smarter route into the city without adding to the traffic on our roads.

Both Labor and the Liberals want to build more polluting and destructive tollways across Sydney. But we have costed a comprehensive plan for a world-class public transport system that makes getting around our city fast and easy.

Dear Transport Minister,

New inner west ferry services would provide efficient, fast and environmentally sound travel to and from the area for workers, tourists, students, pensioners and the general public.

I therefore ask that the Government build on the success of the Blackwattle Bay ferry and establish a ferry service at Rozelle Bay for the Annandale area and reinstate the ferry at West Balmain.
