WSU WANTS ACTION ON THE COST OF DEGREES

System remains "deeply unfair", says VC
REDUCING student debt and changes to when graduates start repaying their loans are significant steps to tackling cost-of-living pressures but unfinished business remains on the initial high cost of degrees, Western Sydney University (WSU)  said.
THE Liverpool community is a step closer to having a new purpose-built ambulance station at Prestons following the purchase of a site on Enterprise Circuit.
 
The new Prestons Ambulance Station is being delivered as part of the NSW Government’s $615.5M NSW Ambulance Infrastructure Program.
 
Health Infrastructure and NSW Ambulance carried out a thorough evaluation of the site to ensure the location best meets the needs of our emergency ambulance operations and paramedic staff.
 
New ambulance stations are located at places which optimise ambulance response performance and meet the needs of local community. NSW Ambulance identified Prestons as a high priority location following a comprehensive service planning process using best practice modelling software to map Triple Zero (000) calls.
 
The next steps for the project include design development and seeking planning approval for the new ambulance station. Construction and operational timeframes will be determined as the project progresses.
 
The NSW Ambulance Infrastructure Program will deliver 30 additional ambulance stations and supporting infrastructure across Sydney, the Central Coast, Newcastle and Wollongong over the coming years, boosting frontline emergency ambulance care.
 
Health Infrastructure is working with NSW Ambulance and other Government stakeholders to identify potential sites for new ambulance stations.
 
Sites are confirmed for North Sydney, South Windsor, Oran Park, Berowra and now Prestons.
 
New stations across south-western Sydney are also planned to service the communities of Raby, Prairiewood, Doonside, Glenmore Park, the Aerotropolis and Bargo.
