The New South Wales Labor Party and the Greens on Thursday endorsed a “Community Charter for Good Planning in NSW”.
The charter was launched in the Domain by a coalition of community groups, including the National Trust of Australia (NSW), the Nature Conservation Council NSW, the Better Planning Network, the National Parks Association of NSW, the Total Environment Centre, the Inner Sydney Regional Council for Social Development and the Our Land Our Water Our Future campaign.
Shadow Minister for Planning and the Environment Luke Foley said he signed the charter on behalf of the Labor Party.
Likewise, Greens planning spokesperson David Shoebridge said he was pleased to announce his party’s endorsement of the Charter and hoped that it would become the “greenprint” for planning in the next term of Government.
The NSW Minister for Planning and the Environment, The Hon Pru Goward, sent her apologies to the launch.
