The NSW Opposition will bring its shadow cabinet to Camden council district today to meet with families, small businesses and community groups across the region on the issues shaping daily life.
The visit is part of a series of Shadow Community Cabinet meetings focused on leaving Macquarie Street and returning to local communities. The Opposition will hear directly from residents on cost of living pressures, housing, infrastructure, healthcare and the future of the region.
Camden Township continues to be one of the fastest growing parts of the state. Locals say Minns' Labor government is failing to keep up with the needs of families and businesses across the region.
Opposition Leader Mark Speakman said the visit was about listening to the community and taking action on the things that matter most.
“The families here are working hard and doing their part. They have bought homes, started businesses and trust the government can keep up. Instead they are stuck in traffic, waiting for services and waiting for promises that never come,” Mr Speakman said.
Liberal deputy leader Natalie Ward said the Camden area reflected what so many families were feeling at the moment.
“People are tired of doing more with less. They want a fair deal and a government that delivers. The women, parents and small business owners I meet in southwest Sydney all say the same thing. Life has become more difficult and the bills keep rising,” Ms Ward said.
Shadow Minister for South West Sydney Mark Coure said the Camden region's booming suburbs deserved their due attention.
“This is one of the fastest-growing regions in the country, but when it comes to government attention, it feels like a slow lane,” Coure said.
The Shadow Cabinet will meet with representatives from local councils, business chambers, schools, service providers, sports and community organizations to hear directly from local people about their priorities and concerns.
