Some very welcome news for Tahmoor, Wollondilly and our broader community today. The sale of Tahmoor Colliery to the GEAR / M Resources Consortium (GM3) has now officially been completed, and around 150 workers are already back on site undertaking some mining work. The new operator is working towards bringing more workers back and a full resumption of mining in the coming months. This has been a very long and difficult road for the workers, their families, contractors, local businesses and the wider community. I have stayed across this every step of the way and worked hard to keep the people of Wollondilly and the Southern Highlands updated as things progressed. Most importantly, I want to thank the workers and their families for the way they have stuck together through so much uncertainty. I also want to acknowledge the Mining & Energy Union representatives from NSW South West District, who have stood by the workers and the community throughout this whole process. Thank you also to Wollondilly Shire Council and Mayor Matt Gould for their ongoing advocacy and support. I’m also grateful to the Australian Government Department of Employment and Workplace Relations and NSW Minister for Natural Resources, The Hon. Courtney Houssos MLC and her team, for keeping me informed along the way so I could continue keeping our community informed too. There is still work to do as operations ramp back up, but today is a really positive step. I’m very pleased to see workers getting back on site, families getting some certainty back, and local jobs returning to our community. After everything people have been through, I hope this is the start of a much stronger chapter for Tahmoor Mine and our local community. #Wollondilly #localjobsforlocalpeople #miningnews #coal #coalmining #undergroundmining #newsouthwales #miningindustry Authorised by Judy Hannan MP, State Member for Wollondilly.
