NSW flood victims denied recovery payments, MP says

Residents from flood-affected regions across the Hunter and Mid North Coast are being denied support from Service NSW.

The online system is using incomplete data as some farmers are hospitalised from stress, according to Lyne MP Alison Penfold.

While some areas have been natural disaster declared, residents can’t access recovery payments on the online portal.
