Re: Re: Parliament committee wants to roll back Sydney bus privatisation
  Greg Sutherland

The Minister (the reply being drafted by TfNSW) only replies to
government MPs.

Non government MP's letters get replied to by the Parliamentary
Secretary (drafted by TfNSW), a government backbencher who gets paid
more as he answers for the Minister (and gets extra salary for so doing).

Letters from the general public get a direct reply from TfNSW beginning
"I have been directed by the Minister", about as genuine as a $3 coin.

As for the papers unless it comes under the "if it bleeds, it leads"
they are not interested.

Sometimes, even for a government member, the reply takes longer than 7
months.

Transport Info is a pure spin device to hide and ignore genuine complains.
