Ray Hadley has called out Resilience NSW Commissioner Shane Fitzsimmons over his lack of response to the mouse plague.

Agriculture Minister Adam Marshall today announced a rescue package containing $500 and $1000 payments for affected residents and businesses, however Ray pointed out the issue has been well known for months.

“That’s not going to solve the problem – it’s all too little, too late.”

Ray singled out Mr Fitzsimmons, calling on the Commissioner to take action regardless of whether or not the Premier officially declares a natural disaster.

“If ever there was an emergency in NSW, Shane, it’s the mice plague mate.

“How about getting out there and showing a bit of resilience, and helping these poor blighters out?”
