The NSW premier, Chris Minns, has said he will not slash golf courses across Sydney as golfers reel from the “unique” decision to repurpose half of Moore Park golf course for a major new inner city park.
When asked if the New South Wales government could give a solid commitment about not changing the use of existing golf courses on public land, Minns told reporters on Monday: “Sure … we don’t have plans for that.”
