Over the last couple of days I have dropped into businesses in Mount Colah, Galston and Hornsby Heights to hear how they are going after the storms last week. Many businesses have experienced significant losses due to the storms causing phone and power outages.

To apply for a concessional loan or grant, contact the NSW Rural Assistance Authority on 1800 678 593 or visit www.raa.nsw.gov.au

For updates on power outages visit the Augrid website https://www.ausgrid.com.au/ or call 13 13 88.

If you need further assistance, please contact my office at julian.leeser.mp@aph.gov.au and we will do everything we can to assist.
