Wollongong MP Paul Scully is ready to drop everything to meet the Premier at the bottom of the 72 stairs at Unanderra Station so she can see with her own eyes the need to install lifts.

It is time for the excuses on finishing the Maldon-Dombarton rail line to end following revelations that a secret NSW Cabinet paper has concluded the project has an ‘exceptional’ cost-benefit ratio.

New information revealed through a Freedom of Information request confirms that it is politics first and people last when it comes to deciding disabled access upgrades for train stations in New South Wales.

Member for Wollongong, Paul Scully MP, has demanded the Government publicly release the secret report on South Coast Line rail improvement options, including the cost of a Thirroul tunnel, immediately.

The South Coast Line could be properly assessed for rail improvement options if the New South Wales Government listed it as a priority for a share of the Federal Government’s $20 million for the development of business cases for strategic rail corridors.

The mystery Cruise Development Plan, first promised by the New South Wales Government in June 2014, is still to be finalised it has been revealed.

NSW Labor Leader Luke Foley today used his Budget-In-Reply speech in the Legislative Assembly to re-affirm a Labor Government elected in 2019 will implement all measures contained in the Illawarra Jobs Action Plan.

A share in $300,000 funding grants is now open to applications from not-for-profit community and sporting groups in the Wollongong electorate under the 2017 Community Building Partnership program (CBP).

It was sold as the Budget that would “focus on local communities, (so that) people feel they’re sharing in the success of NSW…”

Member for Wollongong, Paul Scully MP, has invited Parliamentary Secretary for the Illawarra and South Coast, Gareth Ward MP, to front up to a public rally at the foot of the Unanderra Station’s 72 steps and explain the Government’s latest snub for not funding the station’s lifts.
