NSW Gov threatens job cuts

JOB CUTS A THREAT TO LOCAL COMMUNITY

The Minns Labor Government’s planned public sector job cuts will be devastating to hard-working local families and the economy.

Member for Tamworth Kevin Anderson said the shocking planned cuts to jobs at TAFE, Transport for NSW, and Department of Primary Industries and Regional Development (DPIRD) are deeply concerning for local families.

“The Minns Labor Government are planning to slash jobs in regional NSW, devastating hard-working locals who now face an uncertain future,” Mr Anderson said. “To grow our local economy, the government must invest in regional jobs and economic development, and instead, the government are ripping jobs away from our regions and relocating them in the city. The impacts of this decision will be significant, and I am deeply concerned about the uncertainty and worry the government’s cuts are having on our community. The Labor Government must urgently come clean about what jobs will be affected and must not cut jobs for hard working people in our region.”
