NSW:Opposition rail claims wrong: Keneally
Premier KRISTINA KENEALLY has scuttled opposition claims that Sydney's Parramatta to
Epping rail link wasn't a priority for the state government.
Federal Labor announced this week 2.1 billion dollars to revive the longstanding and
controversial project which will receive an additional 520 million dollars from NSW Labor.
Ms KENEALLY says claims the rail link isn't in their transport plan are wrong.
She says the state government will fund its portion of the project from its existing
50 billion dollar 10-year transport blueprint.
The premier has released a letter from NSW Treasury confirming funds for the link are
available within the existing transport plan.
