Media Release - Ward calls for fee-free study for Nurses & Midwives in NSW

29 Aug 2022 fee-free-health

Put politics aside - nurse numbers must be bipartisan. 

Today, I have written to the NSW Premier and Leader of the Opposition and I’ve asked them to adopt a policy announcement from the Victorian Government of fee-free university studies for nurses and midwives.

Both sides of Victorian politics have agreed to this plan and I strongly believe that NSW should do the same.

Please see attached a copy of my media statement on this matter.

Thank you for taking the time to read this note. If ever I can be of any assistance, I would be delighted to help in any way I can.

Kind regards,

Gareth
