A local mayor is speaking out of his disappointment with the new Local Land Services structure, labelling the finalised boundaries much too large.

The Monaro is set to join the South East region, incorporating the Southern Tablelands and the South Coast.

Now, Snowy River Shire Council Mayor John Cahill says the new borders go against the South East Regional Organisations of Councils recommendations, and they're far too big.

Mr. Cahill says he's disappointed the SEROC's viewpoint was ignored.

More schools across the Monaro will soon be receiving flashing school zone lights, with the safety measure to be rolled out even faster than expected.

The NSW Government has announced they are increasing the funding for the program, which will now see an additional 1500 schools receive lights by 2015.

The NRMA Director for the Southern Region, Alan Evans, says they've been campaigning for this outcome over many years. The organisation is welcoming the government's aim to have lights at every school in the state within the next two years.

Recent reports of asbestos exposure during the rollout of the National Broadband Network has sparked calls for a full disclosure of any  other potential dangers.

Eden-Monaro's Liberal candidate, Peter Hendy, says before the network arrives in the high country, there are serious questions the government needs to answer about asbestos concerns.

The Labor government's NBN plan involves running fibre to 12 million homes and businesses across Australia by digging up existing Telstra pits.

It's recently been estimated recently that about one-third of those pits are asbestos-contaminated.

Now, Mr. Hendy says Monaro residents deserve to know what they can expect.
