As the NSW Labor Government heads to Penrith today for a Cabinet meeting, Leader of the Opposition Mark Speakman has called on Premier Chris Minns to stay true to his word and deliver on his promises to Western Sydney.
"Rolling into Penrith can't disguise the fact looks like being a do-nothing Premier with no plans other than cutting vital infrastructure and slashing essential cost of living relief programs," Mr Speakman said.
"Labor's broken election commitments are a betrayal of Western Sydney, and locals in Penrith deserve honesty from the Premier and his Ministers."
Labor's decision to limit energy relief and other cost of living relief programs including Active Kids will impact more than 15,000 families in the Penrith electorate.
"Chris Minns went to the election saying he would 'roll over Active Kids', and now he's slashed the program," Mr Speakman said.
"Chris Minns went to the election saying he would build vital infrastructure including Sydney Metro West, and now he's looking to delay or cancel the project."
"The Premier said one thing to win votes before the election, but is now breaking promises."
The NSW Opposition is renewing calls for the NSW Labor Government to put families and households ahead of their union mates and immediately deliver additional cost of living relief.
"Families, households, and businesses are struggling through Labor's cost of living crisis, with record inflation and rising interest rates. Chris Minns could show that he's on the side of hard working locals by extending energy bill relief to all households, restoring Active Kids vouchers and committing to infrastructure that will support the growth and prosperity of Western Sydney."
"It's time the Premier put people before unions and delivered on his promises."
