More Minns-Mookhey budget mayhem: Labor’s announced it will cut take-home pay for firefighters to hire more staff. This will strip up to $54 million from pay packets a year. The Liberal & Nationals Govt will continue to deliver sustainable pay increases. Details of Labor's cuts…
It’s another hot day across NSW. Total Fire Bans are currently in force in the #GoulburnMulwaree, #QueanbeyanPalerang, #UpperLachlan and #YassValley LGAs. Please take extra care to keep your property and community safe. @NSWRFS

Total fire bans are now in place for multiple regions with high to extreme fire danger across most of NSW, with hot, dry and windy weather increasing the fire risk. There are currently 34 fires burning across the state, four of which are yet to be contained.
There are 7 Total Fire Bans in place across NSW today. It’s going to be one of the hottest days we’ve had in years. Know your risk and follow the advice of the @NSWRFS.
Flood recovery is continuing across the State. Today we announced more support for inland NSW communities. Back Home grants, Rental Support payments extended. Grants for businesses with 20+ employees and support for community-led recovery projects. @PaulTooleMP @nmaclarenjones
Last night’s memorial service was a touching tribute to end a very moving day in the #NorthernRivers. Love for #Lismore is still very strong 12 months on from the flooding disaster. – at Lismore, New South Wales
It’s hard to believe it’s been 1 year since the most catastrophic flooding NSW has ever experienced.
There’s still a long road to recovery for the #NorthernRivers, but progress continues to made every day.
Fact check… in addition to the $6.1 million @FRNSW station, the @LiberalNSW and @NSWNationals Government has funded 2 new state-of-the-art Hazmat trucks and 32 permanent firefighting positions for #OranPark.
Total Fire Bans are in force in the #GoulburnMulwaree, #QueanbeyanPalerang, #UpperLachlan and #YassValley LGAs today. The fire danger rating for these communities is Extreme. Please follow @NSWRFS advice to stay safe.
