The Iemma Government has invested $50,000 to set up a Technology Centre in Mt Druitt’s Willmot estate.
Minister for Housing, Cherie Burton, said the residents themselves had identified the need for affordable and accessible technology and the café also provided a supervised and central venue for local school children to do their homework on one of the seven newly installed computers.
