Barry O'Farrell: Stop the Cuts to Solar Power

The issue

Barry O'Farrell plans to go back on his word and renege on solar contracts, betraying hard working Australian families, many of whom borrowed money to install solar panels.

This decision will hurt 120,000 families and put 5,400 jobs at risk, along with the entire NSW solar industry. Meanwhile, there are smarter solutions to cleaning up the state’s finances. The Government could look at reducing the $1billion paid in direct coal subsidies. 

It's vital that this government hears your voice, sign the petition and tell them “a deal’s a deal”.
