Petition text:
To the Honourable the Speaker and Members of the Legislative Assembly of New South Wales assembled,
The Petition of the Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (RSPCA) New South Wales brings to the attention of the House their recent bid for funding for the redevelopment of the RSPCA’s Yagoona facility.
The current RSPCA Yagoona facility is in a dire state of disrepair and in desperate need of redevelopment. Their supporters give generously; it costs $34 million to run the organisation each year and the RSPCA receives only $466 000 in government assistance; that is just 1.4% of their budget. They are asking for a one-off payment, which will allow them to continue their valuable work in animal welfare, community education and to provide veterinary training and services.
The undersigned petitioners therefore ask the Legislative Assembly to support our request for the NSW Government’s provision of a single capital investment payment to fund the redevelopment of the RSPCA New South Wales’ Yagoona facility.
