We are still busy in Panania. Today it was my good fortune to be able to speak with Mr. M.Baird,Shadow Treasurer for the Liberal Party. He came to Panania specifically to hear about our transport problems. Local store keepers were encouraged to speak with him, as to how lack of regular transport effects their business.
I was able to hand him a tabulated letter setting out some of our many related problems. I also highlighted the discrepancy developing in communities where the current Government is introducing free shuttle buses. While there is nothing inherently wrong with the concept, the problem we have, along with many other citizens, in many other areas, where residents have lost their services or find them greatly reduced ,is the fact that the communities have been told time and time again there is no money. I have never believed this ,no one has ever asked for a free bus, that I am aware of, we all just require your services back.
About two weeks ago I was also able to speak with Gladys Berejiklian and handed her a similar type of letter, this time I asked for a meeting with her. Her office has contacted me and she will speak with me next time she comes to Panania. So we keep Panania in their sights.
