The NSW government has cast doubts on whether Australian Turf Club (ATC) members will have the final say on the future of Rosehill as it confirmed it had received an unsolicited proposal from the ATC for the controversial sale of the racecourse.
A series of questions were put to NSW Upper House leader Penny Sharpe in her capacity as representative of Premier Chris Minns on March 26 from independent upper house MP Mark Latham.
Latham asked if the government would “insist that this vote is taken, rather than the Australian Turf Club handing over the project to Racing NSW, through the Trustee and Racing NSW exercising its power under the NSW Thoroughbred Racing Act to sell Rosehill without reference to the Australian Turf Club membership?”
The written reply by Sharpe on behalf of the Premier was published on Friday.
