Today, NCOSS has written to Premier Barry O’Farrell congratulating him on the Coalition’s election to Government. NCOSS noted the Coalition’s commitment to many of the recommendations outlined in our Election Platform, Vote 1 Fairness in NSW, and indicated our desire to work with the O’Farrell Government to tackle entrenched disadvantage and social exclusion.

NCOSS reminded the Premier that NCOSS has been advocating for a fair deal for low income, vulnerable and disadvantaged people and communities for over 75 years and called for the Government to consider a revitalised compact with NCOSS and the community sector which would ensure that NSW’s prosperity is fairly shared by all of its people.
