"The Labor Party is saying that every service provider who was unsuccessful in a tender process will be closing the doors to their refuges. This is a straight out lie and they know it," Minister Upton said in a response to a Linda Burney media release.

"The fact is that a tender process was conducted for $445 million worth of homelessness funding around the state.

"For every existing service that was unsuccessful in the tender, there is a successful provider who will either take over the existing services and properties or provide additional services in the area."

Minister Upton said more care needs to be taken to ensure those in need of homeless services know there is help available.

"Labor continues to perpetuate this myth that 80 homelessness refuges will be closing their doors," she said.

"The Labor Party is shamelessly rolling out a deceitful 'Save (Insert Refuge Name Here)' scare campaign around the state.

"They are deliberately scaring the vulnerable to try to get a headline. It's a new low in Labor Party misinformation.

"People who are homeless or at risk of becoming homeless deserve our undivided support, not misinformation and scaremongering."

Successful providers are St Vincent de Paul Society NSW, who will take over management of 10 properties in order for them to stay open.

Youth Off The Streets Ltd in partnership with Wesley Mission and YWCA NSW will take over management of a property.

And Launchpad Youth Community Inc in partnership with Rosemount Good Shepherd Youth and Family Services and YWCA NSW will take over management of another.

Minister Upton said unsuccessful applicants will be invited to apply for the Canterbury Bankstown Multicultural Family Homeless support service and if unsuccessful will be invited to apply for the Service Support Fund.
