What was the origin story here of the Good Neighbours program?

The Good Neighbours program started off as a $10 million election commitment from the New South Wales government.

And it was really about trying to deal with that challenge of how do you actually get neighbours to work better between public land managers, and that's all of the government land managers, and private land managers.

So, yeah, it was basically kicked off to try and improve the pest and weed outcomes at that level.

We had four really key topics that we were trying to address with that.

One was that increased engagement and collaboration, like getting neighbours to work together.

We had a second one about increasing the capability of those land managers, because to meet your biosecurity duty to manage pests and weeds, you need to know how to do that as best you possibly can.

a breaking down of silos, hasn't it?
