State of SE Australia (3,5,5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

new south wales

(Other definitions for new south wales that I've seen before include "Australian state, capital Sydney" , "Name given to Australia when colonised in 1788; a state since 1901" , "Sydney's state" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
