Why

A Bill is about to be tabled by Dr Amanda Cohn in the NSW Parliament to amend the Local Government Act.

Its aim is to ensure the Minister for Local Government has to act when a majority of residents want to go back to their former Councils.

Labor in opposition promised to act on residents’ concerns. Now, it can.

Come and find out more about how, if passed, this could benefit communities across NSW, including in the Inner West, where in 2021 we voted 62.5% to demerge.

SPEAKERS:

Dr Amanda Cohn, Greens MLC, Local govt spokesperson

Brian Halstead, Demerge NSW Alliance

Kobi Shetty, MP Balmain, Inner West councillor

John Stamolis, Independent Inner West councillor

More speakers to be confirmed.
