Hornery, Sonia to the Minister for Local Government, Minister for Aboriginal Affairs, Minister Assisting the Minister for Health (Mental Health)
  1. How much has been spent on the removal of graffiti in the Wallsend Electorate?
  2. What financial assistance does the NSW Government give to local councils for the removal of graffiti in the Wallsend Electorate?
Answer -

I provide the following details in response to your questions:

  1. The Department of Local Government does not collect this information. The Member for Wallsend may wish to contact the local councils in the Wallsend electorate directly to ascertain information about how much money is spent on the removal of graffiti.
  2. In May 2006 the NSW Attorney General announced a comprehensive strategy for reducing the incidence of graffiti vandalism. The Member for Wallsend may wish to contact the Attorney General if she would like further information, as the Attorney General's Department is the lead agency for the implementation of the Government's response to graffiti vandalism and administers funding for the strategy.
