"The NSW Government today announced the next steps in our plan to respond to the future challenges of sea level rise, and how to protect coast communities.
“The best available research indicates sea levels along the NSW coastline will rise 40cm by the year 2050, and 90cm by 2100,” said Minister for the Environment and Climate Change, John Robertson.
“In February, we released the Sea Level Rise Policy Statement for consultation with councils and other stakeholders, which has since been amended, finalised and adopted."
