On Wednesday 27 November, ConnellGriffin Pty Ltd were delighted to host a table at the CEDA State of the State address. It was a privilege to witness the keynote address by our Premier, The Hon. Gladys Berejiklian MP, Premier of NSW and The Hon. Rob Stokes, Minister for Planning and Public Spaces. It was encouraging to hear about the progress of NSW over the past few years and the prospects for future growth in our state. The address included detailed updates on state budgets including a healthy balance sheet and budget surplus, innovation and digitisation plans, improvements to the planning system, the importance of collaboration between the public and private sector, and even high speed rail prospects. At Connell Griffin, we are proud to be a part of this progressive culture in NSW and we look forward to attending more CEDA events in the future.
