To support the work of the shadow cabinet, NSW Liberal Leader Mark Speakman and NSW Nationals Leader Dugald Saunders today announced shadow assistant ministers (sitting outside the shadow cabinet).
“The people of NSW expect us as an opposition to be constructive, to represent their interests and to hold the government to account. Today’s announcement builds on the shadow ministerial team and strengthens our commitment to the areas of policy vital to the success of our state,” Mr Speakman said.
“We are committed to fighting for the needs and concerns of the people of NSW, and our shadow assistant ministers will play an important role in engaging with communities across our state, hearing concerns and ideas, and developing practical solutions that benefit households and businesses.”
Mr Saunders said that the Labor Government has already dropped the ball by failing to detail its policies or explain how it will pay for anything.
“From addressing increasing cost of living pressures, to ensuring investment in infrastructure in our cities and regions, this government is already out of puff and ideas.”
“We will spend every day focused on the needs of people across this state, and our experience and record of delivery will put us in good stead to present a strong alternative government at the 2027 election,” Mr Saunders concluded.
