There’s been 29 TAFE NSW jobs lost on the Northern Rivers in the latest round of cuts, according to Lismore MP Janelle Saffin.
Ms Saffin said the decision to cut jobs from the TAFE sector should been seen as a betrayal by NSW Premier Gladys Berejiklian, after she promised during the 2019 election there would be no regional and rural public service job cuts.
“How many cuts can our TAFE system take before it is completely decimated?” Ms Saffin said.
TAFE NSW late last week advised the Community Public Sector Union of NSW that the Government is cutting almost 700 frontline TAFE NSW jobs, including 470 regional jobs.
