Families struggling to afford a place to live will be able to move into permanent modular homes as soon as next year as part of a government trial. The premier is convinced these homes are the way forward to help ease the housing shortage. 7NEWS.com.au #7NEWS

We need to pull out all the stops to build more homes in NSW.
Our plan involves utilising the untapped potential of unused government land across the state to build homes.
There are some great locations on the list, too.

"I know what to say but lose the courage or drive to step in when it’s my turn. The spontaneity, free movement and joy of conversation are fading. I’ve learnt that to stand in silence when people expect you to speak is a difficult and lonely place to be."

It’s the first step of a big change, but the right one.
Conversion practices are dangerous, and there is no room for them in New South Wales.

New year, new homes.
We've completed a new mixed-tenure housing development in Western Sydney.
And we’re ensuring those who need it move in as soon as possible.
We’ll prioritise tenancy to women facing or experiencing homelessness to ensure they have a roof over their head.

We won't let the thoughts of a few affect the future of housing for young Australians.
It's that simple.

I know this won't be popular with everyone - but the truth is we don't have a choice but to do it.
If we want to be a city that our kids can actually afford to live in, we must build upwards.

Wet weekend ahead!
@NSWSES and @BOM_NSW are monitoring a coastal low weather system which has the potential to bring very heavy rainfall to south eastern parts of the state on Sunday. NSW SES has prepositioned vehicles and aviation assets.
We may see dangerous conditions with flash flooding likely, and possible landslips.
Remember, if it’s flooded, forget it.

Dissolved oxygen levels are showing signs of improvement, but still some concern for fish health in the Darling River through to Menindee township. Releases of better quality water from the Lake Pamamaroo outlet is continuing. Read the latest update: tinyurl.com/5fjktv8b

"Labor believes that a guaranteed right to a safe, reliable, supply of clean water – provided by the Government of this State – should be a constitutionally protected right for the people of New South Wales." – @ChrisMinnsMP
Rose Jackson retweeted
We’ll change the constitution of NSW to protect Sydney Water and Hunter Water from privatisation!
Rose Jackson retweeted
Today, NSW Labor leader Chris Minns pledged to keep Sydney Water in public hands.
If the Liberals privatise Sydney Water, rates will rise by $264 per year.

Decriminalisation was 50 years in the making. It was a tough campaign but was overwhelmingly passed by the parliament & is supported in the community. Three years later NSW is failing women by limiting access. We can and must do better. smh.com.au/national/nsw/wome…

Goodness me. The so called champions of affordable housing, the greens party, walked out of the chamber during the Housing vote. It’s now on the record that they didn’t support one of Australia’s biggest investments in affordable and social housing. Shame. #auspol #housing – at Canberra, Australian Capital Territory
