Regional Communities Consultative Council

The NSW Regional Communities Consultative Council comprising representatives from 13 rural & regional interest groups provides advice to the Premier, the Minister for Rural Affairs and the NSW Government.

The Regional Communities Consultative Council (RCCC) was established in 1996 to make sure that the NSW Government is informed on the issues and concerns facing country people in NSW.

The overarching theme of the RCCC is the sustainability of rural communities. It helps the Government to work with country communities to respond to and resolve local issues.

The role of the RCCC is to:

• advise on the broader impact of specific government initiatives, policies and services on rural and regional communities;
• advise on opportunities for government initiatives which advance the social, economic and environmental development of rural and regional NSW;
• advise on regional communities' access to information on government initiatives, services and programs being delivered to rural and regional NSW; and
• advocate changes which improve the quality of life for rural and regional communities.
