Submissions have opened to the 2022 NSW Flood Inquiry.
Professor Mary O’Kane AC and Michael Fuller APM will lead the six-month independent Inquiry, which will review the preparation for, causes of, response to and recovery from the 2022 catastrophic flood event across the state of NSW.
The inquiry will play a critical role in providing a forum for community voices to be heard and ensuring all the necessary steps are taken to prepare NSW for future disaster events.
Public submissions can be made via:
- Email: inquiry@floodinquiry.nsw.gov.au
- Post: NSW Independent Flood Inquiry, GPO Box 5341, Sydney NSW 2001
- In-person: at any Service NSW Service Centre or at a Mobile Service Centre
In addition, the reviewers will be running a series of community sessions, some face-to-face and some online, so you can attend in a way that is most convenient to you. These will be advertised in advance.
The Inquiry is required to report to the Premier on causation, land use planning and management and related matters by June 30, 2022, and on all other matters by 30 September 2022.
