NSW Labor's pledge to create Georges River Koala National Park welcomed by conservation groups

Labor's Penny Sharpe outlines the Georges River Koala National Park.

Conservation groups have welcomed NSW Labor's election promise to create a koala national park in Sydney's south-west.

Public land between Glenfield and Appin will be used for the new Georges River Koala National Park, which Labor says will save local colonies which, unlike other populations in the Sydney basin, are chlamydia-free and thriving.
