The NSW Government will provide a support package to residents and small-to-medium businesses impacted by the electrical outage in the Broken Hill and Central Darling Local Government Areas, and the Far West Unincorporated Area.
The package will include financial support in the form of grants, which will be available from Service NSW.
Payments of:
- up to $200 will be made available to each of the residential electricity account holders impacted by the outage
- up to $400 will be made available to impacted small-to-medium businesses.
While these grants are being established, the NSW Government will continue to support people’s immediate needs with pantry staples, fresh produce, food hampers and mobile cold rooms at key locations in the Far West.
More information on the grants will be coming soon.
