The following notice was given:


Mr Mossfield to move:

That this House:

(1) acknowledges the importance of the construction of the Western Sydney Orbital Road System to the economic and social development of Western Sydney;

(2) acknowledges the importance of road transport access that diminishes interference with road users in local communities;

(3) recognises that in heavily developed regions such as Western Sydney, the speedy access by road transport to local business developments is vital in assisting productivity and business growth;

(4) notes the policy commitment of successive governments to build the Western Sydney Orbital Road System;

(5) acknowledges that only minimum funding has ever been set aside for the building of the Western Sydney Orbital Road System and that conditions of construction have included the building of a second airport at Badgerys Creek; and

(6) calls on the federal Government to listen to and act upon the many calls from affected residents, business groups, business development committees, local government spokespersons and other interested parties in Western Sydney and urgently provide sufficient funding to enable the NSW Government to combine in partnership with the Commonwealth to commence immediate construction of the whole Western Sydney Orbital Road System.
