Govt 'sold out' NSW water supply

THE NSW Government's "back-flip" on its election pledge to protect the state's water supply from mining interference has raised the ire of North Coast environmental activists.

Lock the Gate spokesman Ian Gaillard believes the State Government has "sold out the groundwater of NSW" to the coal-seam gas industry and he has put the Premier on notice to expect the most significant protest action in the state's history in response.
Last week, NSW Planning Minister Brad Hazzard unveiled the latest version of the government's aquifer interference policy at a farming forum in Sydney.
