What lies ahead?
Everyone is able to speak in-person – you'll have up to 5 minutes. If you email submissions@ipcn.nsw.gov.au, they may be able to find a last-minute speaking slot for you.
Even if you choose not to speak, please make sure you attend – and bring a plus one! If you plan on attending without speaking, you do not need to register.
While these meetings are an opportunity for you to speak directly to the panellists and connect with others in the community, the IPC is open to receiving written submissions until Tuesday 19 November.
