Local Government NSW (LGNSW) is calling on all NSW councils to advocate for the NSW Government to address cost shifting to the local government sector.
Cost shifting is when State and Federal governments force councils to assume responsiblity for infrastructure, services and regulatory functions without providing sufficient supporting funding.
LGNSW's most recent cost shifting report was released in November 2023.
This report, and information about the impact of cost-shifting can be found on the LGNSW website.
