Member for Heathcote Maryanne Stuart said:
"I am delighted that after 12 years of inaction by the former government that Helensburgh will now have an upgraded police station and room for officers and vehicles based there to serve the Northern Illawarra.
"I thank the people of Helensburgh and the Northern Illawarra for your belief in me when committing to deliver an upgraded Police Station for this wonderful community at the 2023 election.
"I'm proud to be part of a government that is getting on with the job of providing a police presence in the Northern Illawarra that is effective for the community and the police officers serving in the area.
"The government, community and police are looking forward to this upgrade and we are looking forward to its completion, with Police staffed locally in this station. The people of Helensburgh and Northern Illawarra deserve nothing less."
