Question on Notice to the Minister for Transport and Infrastructure regarding the costs of opal card infrastructure and the loss of revenue when opal card readers are unavailable.

Question on Notice to the Minister for Family and Community Services, Minister for Social Housing and Minister for the Prevention  of Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault regarding rape and domestic violence services.

That this House:

1. Notes the extraordinary work of Rape and Domestic Violence Services Australia (RDVSA) which provides specialist sexual assault and domestic violence trauma counselling services for the national 1800 RESPECT line.

Residents across the inner west – and indeed across Australia – have started receiving their postal surveys on marriage equality.

That this House:

1. Notes recent reports that Transport for NSW was asked by State Transit officials to review Region 6 bus timetables a full two years before taking action.

Communities along the proposed WestConnex route continue to be ignored when it comes to the basic mitigation measures that might make their lives more bearable. The Sydney Motorway Corporation has confirmed it will build a solid five-metre noise wall between the Wattle Street construction site and adjacent houses on Walker Avenue, Haberfield. 

That this House:

1. Notes there are concerns that the Government plans to catch communities unaware along the Sydenham to Bankstown railway line with an extra 25,000 more units in addition to the 35,000 units included in its draft plans for mass rezoning.

That this House:

1. Notes the Commonwealth Government has committed to a national postal survey on marriage equality, risking the well-being of Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Trans, Intersex, and Questioning (LGBTIQ) communities across Australia.

This letter constitutes my formal submission to the exhibition of the Sydenham to Bankstown Urban Renewal Corridor – specifically the Dulwich Hill Precinct Plan, Marrickville Precinct Plan and Sydenham Precinct Plan.
