NSW Labor leader Chris Minns has dodged guaranteeing larger pay rises for teachers, police and nurses while sparring with Premier Dominic Perrottet over NIMBYs, children's futures and groceries.
With rising living costs dominating the state's election campaign, Mr Minns was asked repeatedly during a televised election debate on Wednesday about his pledge to scrap a public sector wages cap for frontline workers.
But he stopped short of promising increases above the coalition's limit of three-per-cent per year plus productivity gains if Labor wins on March 25.
