17 NEW TRAINS FAST TRACKED FOR NSW COMMUTERS
The NSW Government will fast-track the delivery of another 17 new air-conditioned Waratah Series 2 trains in response to growing demand across the Sydney Trains network.
This is in addition to 24 new trains currently in delivery, bringing the total of new Waratah Series 2 trains to 41.
Minister for Transport and Infrastructure Andrew Constance said the investment in the new trains is only possible because of the strong economic management of the NSW Liberals & Nationals Government.
“We are investing record amounts into the existing rail network and delivering a world class turn-up-and-go service in Sydney Metro at the same time,” Mr Constance said.
“Already 12 of the new Waratah Series 2 trains have been introduced to the suburban network, and the rest are being progressively rolled out over the next few months.
“By bolstering our order by another 17 trains, we will make the network more reliable and more comfortable for customers.”
The newest trains will start rolling onto the tracks from 2020.
“This investment in new trains is needed because we have seen rapid growth across the rail system,” Mr Constance said.
“There has been a 30 per cent increase in patronage over the last five years, with the number of trips a year increasing from 300 million to more than 413 million last year.”
The new trains feature:
- Double deck carriages;
- Air-conditioning with temperature control;
- High definition customer information screens;
- Internal and external CCTV and customer help points;
- Priority seating, wheelchair spaces and hearing aid loops.
The NSW Government has already employed 450 additional train drivers since 2016 helping to deliver about 1500 extra train services each week.
New logo for a new city
Newcastle Art Gallery, Civic Theatre, Blackbutt Reserve and other city jewels have been united under a new corporate logo to reflect Newcastle’s revitalisation and ensure Novocastrians are aware of the assets they collectively own.
A multi-coloured ‘N’, the main feature of the new City of Newcastle logo, was inspired by the emergence of a new city and designed to promote its growing appeal to tourists.

“All of our facilities and services will be united under a single banner that Novocastrians can be proud of,” Lord Mayor Nuatali Nelmes said at today’s launch.
“The new ‘N’ logo bears seven colours in a simple yet effective design that encapsulates Newcastle as an emerging global city. The ripple effect represents water, as a strong symbol and shared connection across our coastal city. The vibrant palette captures the beauty of Newcastle’s natural environment and represents the city’s bright outlook.
“The look proudly complements our highly successful Newcastle ‘See Change’ destination brand. The two will often feature side by side as we work to deliver services and facilities to Newcastle as well as promote the city as a destination.
“Through consultation with our community for our Newcastle 2030 Strategic Plan, we found that our coastline was an important element to the Newcastle region and our fresh brand reflects this.”
Research undertaken last year found around half of all Novocastrians weren’t aware Blackbutt Reserve, Fort Scratchley, the Civic Theatre, Newcastle Museum or Newcastle Art Gallery were City of Newcastle facilities.

An updated, more contemporary logo was needed, the Lord Mayor said, a quarter of a century after the Civic Fountain motif replaced a coat of arms bearing two seagulls.

“As a progressive, dynamic and rapidly changing City, it was important that we made this change to complement Newcastle’s transformation from a regional town into a smart, liveable and sustainable global city,” Councillor Nelmes said.
“When our community doesn’t recognise the services or facilities their local council provides, it’s clear that the old approach of separating council’s services and logos for each asset was not optimal. Under the new ‘N’, we are united with a consistent and recognisable symbol.”
CEO Jeremy Bath said he expected the new brand would engender a greater sense of city pride and ownership following its gradual roll out.
“We’ve brought together elements such as our affinity for water into a functional design that is bold and instantly recognisable,” Mr Bath said.
“And with our in-house design team partnering with local creative agency Headjam in a co-design capacity, along with some in-kind support from the agency, we were able to minimise the spend without compromising the result. This assistance to develop the design for our organisation, and all facilities cost just under $50,000.
“With the foundation design work done, we can start a 12-month implementation phase.
“While we intend to roll the brand out in a timely fashion, we won’t be replacing our 25-year-old brand overnight. We’ll start by replacing existing signage on our big-ticket items, like prominent sites and cultural facilities, before progressively rolling-out any new signage when it’s due for replacement under our routine signage renewal work.”

The timing of the brand refresh coincides with the City’s administrative move, from three separate Civic precinct buildings to a single office block in the City’s new CBD in Newcastle West.

Morrison Government playing politics with disabled people when it comes to Paralympic funding: Steele-John
Australian Greens Disability Rights spokesperson Senator Jordon Steele-John has welcomed Prime Minister Morrison’s commitment to funding paralympic sport, but said that the funding was ever in question is just another example of government playing politics with disabled people.
“The Australian Paralympic Committee (APC) had to put in a submission – which was way back in October last year – requesting funding for the Tokyo 2020 campaign and the long-term sustainability of grassroots disabled sport in Australia,” Steele-John said.
“Why was this funding ever even in doubt? The Olympic team recieve hundreds of millions of dollars every four years and even more is dumped into Australian sport, yet the APC have to put in a submission just to get a single cent!
“It’s great that Scott Morrision has announced today $12 million for the APC, but I’m disappointed that this essential – and frankly bare minimum – funding has come in the form of an election promise.
“If the Prime Minister was truly committed to advancing paralympic sport, and opportunities for disabled people in sport, then he would have made the commitment back in October. Once again, this is a government playing politics with disabled people as it continues to do with a Royal Commission into the violence, abuse and neglect of disabled people in institutional and residential settings.
“When it comes to a major international sporting event like the paralympic games, certainty is everything in the planning process and 5 months is a bloody long time!
“The Australian Greens made a commitment to fund the $15.85 million asked for as soon as we met with representatives of the APC back in October. Proper funding goes part of the way towards bridging that gap, ending discrimination and helping more disabled Australians get into sport!”
Bird exports must be stopped and investigated
Reports of more rare and endangered birds being exported to Germany and into the hands of a convicted criminal must be investigated urgently, the Greens say.
“The Federal Government should never have given permits to allow the trade of rare and endangered birds with a person convicted of fraud and kidnapping. It must be investigated and exports of rare and endangered birds must halt,” Greens environment and trade spokesperson Senator Sarah Hanson-Young said.
“The Environment Department has some serious questions to answer. The fact that this export permit has not been cancelled since this trade was exposed is an appalling oversight of the Department. I will be using estimates hearings in two weeks to probe how on earth this happened and what the Department and the Minister are going to do to fix it.
“The Morrison Government cannot be trusted with the preservation or restoration of our environment. Our beautiful, rare, endangered wildlife should not be traded for profit, they must be protected here in Australia where they belong.
“We need an urgent independent inquiry into how these rare and endangered birds have ended up in the hands of a convicted criminal in Germany.”
CCTV CAMERAS TO MAKE OUR STREETS EVEN SAFER
At least 1000 community organisations and small businesses will benefit from funding to install CCTV cameras to make our streets even safer, under a program to be delivered by the NSW Liberals & Nationals Government.
Premier Gladys Berejiklian said $5 million will be committed over four years to rollout CCTV cameras in Western and South-Western Sydney before being assessed for expansion to other areas of NSW.
“Community safety is the NSW Government’s top priority and this investment will keep residents and small businesses safe from crime and anti-social behavior,” Ms Berejiklian said.
“More CCTV cameras will increase community confidence and send a strong message to would-be criminals that if you do the wrong thing, you will be caught and punished.”
Police Minister Troy Grant said CCTV camera footage can be a vital source of information for NSW Police when gathering intelligence and investigating criminal activity, and acts as a deterrent to criminals, reducing the likelihood of crime.
“This is a great initiative that will improve public safety and community confidence by cracking down on criminal and anti-social behavior,” Mr Grant said.
“It’s about putting criminals on the back foot – if they know they’re being watched, it makes them think twice about doing the wrong thing.”
Mr Grant said the program will continue the NSW Liberals & Nationals Government’s strong record of investment in local community safety initiatives, including the Government’s commitment to deliver 1500 new police to put more cops on the beat.
“This program means funds can go directly to small businesses and community groups impacted by crime, empowering communities to make our streets even safer,” Mr Grant said.
Eligible community groups and small businesses will be able to apply for up to $5000 in funding, and will have their applications assessed by officials from the NSW Police Force and the NSW Department of Justice, from April 2019.
Community groups and small businesses in the following ten local government areas will be the first groups and businesses eligible to participate in the program:
- Blacktown;
- Camden;
- Campbelltown;
- Canterbury-Bankstown;
- Cumberland;
- Fairfield;
- Liverpool;
- Parramatta;
- Penrith; and
- Wollondilly.
LABOR WILL BUILD THE EUROBODALLA HOSPITAL
A Shorten Labor Government will boost health services for people in the Eurobodalla Shire by investing $25 million to help build a new Eurobodalla Hospital.
Our $25 million commitment is part of Labor’s Fair Go Action Plan to protect Medicare and fix our hospitals, and is on top of a $175 million commitment by the NSW Labor Opposition, because only Labor – state and federal – can be trusted to fix NSW hospitals.
People in the Eurobodalla Shire – from South Durras to Tilba Tilba – deserve the same access to vital hospital care as people in Sydney and larger regions.
But thanks to the Liberals’ cuts and neglect, Eurobodalla hospital services have been downgraded and patients are forced to travel hours for basic procedures.
Scott Morrison is cutting $5.3 million from Southern NSW hospitals between 2017 and 2020 – equivalent to almost 8,000 emergency department visits or 13,000 outpatient appointments.
Federal Labor’s $25 million investment will go towards:

Federal Labor’s $25 million investment will go towards:
- A state of the art emergency department
- Operating theatres
- Maternity and paediatric services
- Pathology services
- Radiology services including X-ray, ultrasound and CT scanning
- Palliative care
- A helipad
- Up to 20 mental health beds
- Community drug and alcohol services
- A rehabilitation unit
Labor will consult extensively with the Eurobodalla community to determine the best site for the new hospital.
While the NSW Liberals have also recognised the need for a new Eurobodalla Hospital, they have woefully underfunded the project, with fears the planned hospital will exclude inpatient mental health services. This is a slap in the face for a region that faces mental health and alcohol and other drug challenges.
Labor’s combined $200 million commitment includes $50 million more than the Liberals have promised, and builds on federal Labor’s existing commitment that a Shorten Government will grant a full Medicare MRI licence to the region, boosting access to life-saving scans.
Labor believes every Australian should get the best quality health care whenever they need it – no matter if you live in Sydney or regional New South Wales.
The Liberals on the other hand just cut and cut and cut from health. As Treasurer, Scott Morrison cut from health and hospitals in every Budget he authored.
Only Labor will reverse the Liberals’ cuts to hospitals with our $2.8 billion Better Hospitals Fund, which we will use to fund projects like this one.
Labor can afford to help build a new hospital in Eurobodalla, because we are tackling unfair tax loopholes and making multinationals pay their fair share.
BANKING ROYAL COMMISSION FINAL REPORT
The final report of the Banking Royal Commission uncovers unconscionable, corrupt and potentially criminal behaviour in the banking and financial services sector.
This is a dark day for Australian banking, and a terrible indictment on the greed in the industry.
We pay tribute to the victims of banking misconduct, the whistleblowers and the advocates for making this day happen.
We acknowledge it has been a long journey for individuals, families, small businesses and farmers.
The Royal Commission would not have happened without you. We will have a better, stronger and fairer banking system for all Australians because of you.
The final report is a comprehensive blueprint to clean up the industry, restore Australians’ trust in their banks, and put the interests of consumers first.
The Royal Commission’s report shows that on too many occasions, the pursuit of profit was put ahead of people, ethics and the law.
Scott Morrison and the Liberals should be condemned for voting against the Banking Royal Commission 26 times.
Mr Morrison called the Royal Commission “regrettable”, a “populist whinge”, delayed action for more than 600 days, and wants to give the big banks a $17 billion handout.
The Liberals have shown they cannot be trusted to clean up the banks. They are too out of touch and only stand up for the top end of town.
Unlike the Government, the Opposition accepts in-principle all of the recommendations in the report.
We will now give full and proper consideration to all the findings and recommendations through our usual processes.
On our initial reading of the Government’s response, we are concerned that on too many issues, the Government does not accept the Royal Commission’s recommendation, does not propose adequate action, or delays action.
There are several recommendations that require legislation to improve our banking system and ensure Australians aren’t ripped off, but Scott Morrison’s part-time parliament makes it very difficult to take immediate action to clean up the banks.
The Liberals tried to stop this Royal Commission from happening. They cannot be allowed to go soft on the banks, or go slow on implementing the reforms.
As Commissioner Hayne says in his final report: The financial services industry is too important to the economy of the nation to allow what has happened in the past to continue or to happen again.
As well as giving in-principle support to the recommendations of the Royal Commission, a Shorten Labor Government will:

- Fund a dedicated special prosecutor to bring corporate criminals to justice.
Labor offers its sincere thanks to Commissioner Hayne and his dedicated team for their extraordinary efforts over the last 12 months.
LABOR WILL INVEST $4.45 MILLION FOR VIETNAMESE CULTURAL CENTRE AND MUSEUM
A Shorten Labor Government will invest $4.45 million to support the construction of the first Vietnamese Cultural Centre and Museum in Australia.
Australia is home to nearly 300,000 Vietnamese who all have a unique story and the Museum will become home for the Vietnamese community to collect, preserve and exhibit their culture, history and identity as a reminder and example of Australia’s successful multicultural society.
The Museum been a long term goal for the Victorian chapter of the Vietnamese Community in Australia and will contain interactive exhibits to share stories that will provide a unique insight into the ongoing journey of the Vietnamese community in Australia.
These are stories of sacrifice to give their children a better shot at life, long hours and hard work to grow small businesses and educate the next generation of doctors, lawyers, teachers and leaders.
In 2025 Australia will celebrate the 50th anniversary of the settlement of Vietnamese refugees in Australia and we are fortunate so many chose our nation to make a new home and life and it’s impossible to imagine Australia today without the contribution of the Vietnamese community.
The Centre will be located in Footscray and will serve to represent a city that has been the bedrock of the Australians of Vietnamese background since settlement.
This announcement matches the contribution of the Dan Andrews Labor Government and builds on contributions and support from local community members, the City of Maribyrnong to help make the Museum a reality by the 50th anniversary.

LABOR WILL PROTECT AND REWARD BANKING WHISTLEBLOWERS
A Shorten Labor Government will protect and reward the brave Australians who blow the whistle on crime and corruption, including in the banking and financial sector.
If elected, Labor will:
If elected, Labor will:
- Set up a Whistleblower Rewards Scheme;
- Establish a Whistleblower Protection Authority;
- Overhaul our whistleblowing laws with a single Whistleblowing Act; and
- Fund a special prosecutor to bring corporate criminals to justice.
The Banking Royal Commission has highlighted appalling and even criminal misconduct in the banking sector. It was only possible because brave whistleblowers and bank victims came forward – and Labor listened.
The Liberals did everything they could to protect the banks from the Royal Commission and keep this misconduct hidden. Scott Morrison voted 26 times against the Banking Royal Commission, and he wants to give the banks a massive tax handout.
Right now, blowing the whistle on crime and misconduct is incredibly difficult, with whistleblowers often facing reprisals, and some are never able to work again. For many Australians who see wrongdoing and want it to stop, blowing the whistle isn’t worth the risk.
This shouldn’t be the case, and Labor doesn’t want to see good people punished for doing the right thing.
Labor will establish a Whistleblower Rewards Scheme to make it easier for good people to come forward and report instances of crime and misconduct.
The scheme will allow whistleblowers to receive a percentage of the penalties arising out of wrongdoing that they reveal.
Once a crook is hit with a financial penalty as a result of whistleblowing, the Whistleblower Rewards Scheme will allow a proportion of the penalty to be given as a reward to the whistleblower. The relevant investigative or law enforcement agency will have discretion to determine the level of the reward within a legislated range.
The Whistleblower Rewards Scheme would be funded by the penalties collected by the Government.
Labor will also strengthen protections for whistleblowers through the establishment of a Whistleblower Protection Authority – a one-stop-shop to support and protect whistleblowers.
The Authority will have dedicated staff to advise whistleblowers on their rights, assist them through the disclosure process and help them access compensation if they face reprisals.
Labor believes all whistleblowers should be treated the same – regardless of the type of workplace they’re in. But right now, our whistleblower laws are opaque and inconsistent.
A Shorten Labor Government will create a single Australian Whistleblowing Act, consolidating all mainstream whistleblowing legislation into one location so that whistleblowers can readily understand how they are protected.
This will be a major shakeup of Australia’s whistleblowing regime. We will undertake detailed design work to make sure the new laws, the proposed Rewards Scheme and the Whistleblower Protection Authority are powerful and effective.
Labor is committed to cracking down on misconduct and corruption in the banking and financial services sector.
These announcements build on our commitment for a Banking Royal Commission Implementation Taskforce, and to deliver an extra $25 million over the next two years for the Commonwealth Director of Public Prosecutions to tackle corporate crime.
As part of this funding, Labor will appoint a special prosecutor to crack down on corporate criminals.
The choice is clear. While Labor fought for the Banking Royal Commission and will crack down on white collar crime, Scott Morrison and the Liberals voted 26 times against the Banking Royal Commission and want to give the banks a tax handout.
Labor will deliver a fair go for all Australians. Morrison and the Liberals are only for the top end of town.
