Government urges big business to relocate, relocate, relocate to regional NSW

Large corporations and companies looking to relocate to the Dubbo electorate to take advantage of a better quality of life will be able to benefit from expert NSW Government advice about setting up shop in regional NSW.

Member for the Dubbo electorate Dugald Saunders has thrown his support behind a NSW Government concierge service to help companies develop business plans and provide practical advice about establishing jobs, offices and headquarters in regional towns and cities.

“This is fantastic news for the people in our region, because we know that when big businesses look to relocate to our region, there will be more jobs for locals as well as more money in the tills of our local restaurants and shops,” Mr Saunders said.

“The NSW Nationals are building a safer and stronger regional NSW, turning country towns into thriving hubs. We want people to relocate to our towns, but most importantly we are giving the people who already live here access to the best possible services.

“We are creating jobs, building the best hospitals, fixing roads and providing education service that is as good, if not better than what they get in the city.”

Deputy Premier John Barilaro said the NSW Government has led the way, announcing public sector jobs will be advertised state-wide with ‘regional location encouraged’ and now he is calling on big business to follow suit.

“One of the principles of good business is ‘location, location, location’, but in the COVID world the secret to success is relocation, relocation, relocation, to regional NSW,” Mr Barilaro said.

“Last week the NSW Government launched the 20-Year Economic Vision for regional NSW, part of which states that public sector jobs will now be advertised in every corner of the State and I am calling on corporates to share in the benefits by establishing themselves in rural towns.

“The new Department of Regional NSW concierge service will provide companies considering relocating with the benefit of expert local advice, recommend ideally-suited towns, identify available office space and support the development of business plans that capitalise on the advantages of setting up in the bush.”
