Early Edition with Ryan Bridge - Podcast készítő Newstalk ZB

A council in Australia’s New South Wales is displeased after being ordered to repay millions of dollars.  The NSW Government has ordered the Hornsby Shire council to repay $36 million as after six years, it still has yet to develop and build a park.  Hornsby Mayor Philip Ruddock, a former federal minister, has accused the government of looking to save money ahead of the state budget coming next week.  Australian Correspondent Lesley Yeomans told Mike Hosking that the NSW Government said that the council has not been able to prove that they’re on track to have anything developed, so it’s time to pay the money back.  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
