John Cobb (Calare, National Party, Shadow Minister for Regional Development) Share this | Hansard source

Is the minister aware of the Yarrawarra Indigenous aged care facility, which would offer a much needed safe home to 15 Aboriginal elders and their carers and would also provide training and employment opportunities for 25 unemployed Indigenous youth on the New South Wales North Coast? Is it not a fact that $470,525 was approved under the Sustainable Regions Program for this project? Why is the minister refusing to fund this worthy community-driven project? Minister, when will you release a full electorate by electorate breakdown of your party’s election promise of 105 better region projects?
