A TWENTY-seven year old man has died following a fatal car crash in the North West.
Just before 1am on Sunday morning emergency services were called to Yarrie Lake Road, Wee Waa, following reports of a single-vehicle crash.
Emergency services attended and commenced CPR on the driver – a 27-year-old man – however, he died at the scene.
Two male passengers – aged 25 and 37 – were treated for minor injuries by paramedics.
A crime scene was established, and an investigation has been launched into the incident by officers from Oxley Police District and the Crash Investigation Unit.
Up to $5 billion will be stashed away for non-rainy days as part of a new fund to help farmers when future droughts scorch paddocks across Australia.
The Future Drought Fund was the key announcement made by Prime Minister Scott Morrison at Friday's national drought summit in Canberra.
From 2020, about $100 million per year will be available, with payments starting from July that year.
The fund will be underpinned by an initial $3.9 billion injection before growing to $5 billion in 2028.
The Nationals' federal treasurer and candidate for the Victorian seat of Shepparton, Peter Schwarz, is accused of gouging much of the $850,000 he was paid by Australia's largest drought-proofing project.
Mr Schwarz is also accused of then calling in favours when pressed to account for the taxpayer cash.
As Prime Minister Scott Morrison launches his drought summit, leaked government files reveal that Mr Schwarz banked the taxpayer subsidies in November 2011 and then spent years resisting efforts from water officials to get him to either return the money or use it for its intended purpose - saving water.
