With the third anniversary of the devastating 2022 floods this week, The NSW Reconstruction Authority, a government-run corporation which is tasked to ‘build more resilient and prepared communities’, has tabled its 2023-24 annual report.
As it was released on print deadline, The Echo will compile a report for next week, including comment from Lismore NSW MP, Janelle Saffin (Labor) and local MP, Tamara Smith (Greens).
Federal Greens candidate Mandy Noldan has raised concerns around the lack of progress around its house-raising and retrofit programs, and says the ‘number of senior executives has doubled to 50’.
For four decades The Echo has printed the stories some people loved, some people hated, and some pretended not to read. If you want us to keep telling the truth, the real truth, not the sugar-coated version. We’ll need your support to keep the presses rolling.
