Regional Recovery Committee established

A Regional Recovery Committee has been established covering Snowy Valleys, Bega Valley, Eurobodalla, Shoalhaven, Snowy Mountains, and Queanbeyan-Palerang Councils.

General Managers from the six councils were linked in a teleconference with the Office of Emergency Management last Friday.

It has been confirmed that the State will bring all key agencies together to work with councils to assess damage and needs and commence the critical stages. Bega Council’s General Manager Leanne Barnes is Deputy Chair of the group and a Recovery Coordinator has been appointed by the Premier to cover the area.

COMMENTS : Due to the risks associated with comments from unidentified contributors that expose The Beagle to possible legal actions under the NSW Defamation Act 2005 No 77 anonymous or Nom de Plume comments will not be available until an alternate system of author verification can be investigated and hopefully installed.

Those who provide their REAL NAME (first name AND Surname) and a verifiable email address (it won't be published) are invited to comment below. (yes it is a pain but please comply - it would be a shame to see your comment deleted)

Those contributors KNOWN to us and verified may continue to use their First Name for ease. The primary need for all of this is due to traceability should a legal action arise.
