MORNING BRIEFING: Former NSW deputy premier is again to front a parliamentary inquiry today into his appointment to a lucrative US-based trade job.

Mr Barilaro will give evidence a the second time.

When Mr Barilaro gave evidence to the inquiry on Monday he was told to prepare for questions on Friday about his girlfriend and former media adviser, Jennifer Lugsdin. The rail union and state government have failed to come to an agreement overnight confirming industrial action will continue throughout August.

"I made it very clear that our industrial action for August will continue unabated, exactly as per our program until I've got a document that we feel satisfied with before we make any decisions about dialling back any industrial action," he said. Its findings are expected to add to the list of woes plaguing Premier Dominic Perrottet's government.

New South Wales' new independent casino regulator will begin operations from next month after the state government passing laws yesterday. "Its first major task will be to consider the findings of the review into The Star casino, with Adam Bell SC due to hand down his report by the end of the month."

Is it time to scrap learner speed limits? Some driving trainers say roads would be saferSpeed restrictions on learner and probationary drivers are in the spotlight as a NSW parliamentary inquiry examines how limits impact safety on regional roads. Drivers with the L are usually more careful and considerate of other drivers. The drivers with the P are typically the ones taking risks and driving faster than others. I've put 2 kids through a license and have the same issue here in regional SA. Learners and P1 drivers must do 100km maximum on 110km roads. It makes it *more* dangerous due to impatient drivers trying to upset the L/P driver and/or overtake dangerously. What do baristas think?
