‘Stop the Sell Off’ Campaign Re-Launched

USU members have re-launched the ‘Stop the Sell Off’ campaign following comments by former Premier and Chairman of Infrastructure NSW, Nick Greiner, who is calling on the full privatisation of the NSW electricity industry including Generation, Distribution and Transmission.
The USU has re-launched the Stop the Sell Off campaign and have already been taking action. Over the coming weeks USU members working in the Generation, Distribution and Transmission sectors will be asked to help raise awareness of the campaign within their community.
Visit the USU website find information on who is behind the push for full privatisation and some media coverage of recent action taken.
USU members should read this information, make contact with their local campaign contact and get involved with the campaign through simple local actions.
