  • Appendix 3J Cross-Border Issues and Australian Bushfires
    3J-1 Appendix 3J Cross-Border Issues and Australian Bushfires Table 3J-1 below contains 26 extracts from books, reports and papers, from 1983 through to 2005, which describe the impact of Australia's State-Territory borders and cross-border issues on operational responses to bushfires, and associated costs to individuals, communities and governments. These 26 extracts include 1 from 1983; 1 from 1998; 1 from 2000; 1 from 2001; 1 from 2002; 15 from 2003 (including reports on the January 2003 Canberra bushfires by the Canberra Times and the ACT Stateline television program, and the McLeod and Nairn Reports); 4 from 2004 (including the COAG Report by Ellis et al.), and 2 from 2005. 3J-2 Table 3J-1: Extracts on State-Territory Cross-Border Issues Arising in Relation to Australian Bushfires Source Selected Extracts Whitlam (1983: 40-42): The cost of Australian federalism is horrendous enough when the federal government and a state government or state governments duplicate services for which there is a commonly accepted standard. The cost is higher still when they supply services for which there is not such a standard. The most notorious case in Australian history concerned the railways where the states adopted three different gauges. ... The break of gauge syndrome has another manifestation which was brought to my attention by a fire in the bulk sugar terminal at Townsville in May 1963. The terminal's own fire fighting equipment could not cope. The adjacent Harbour Board could not assist, since its hoses could not be coupled with those of the terminal. Nor could the hoses of the City Council nor those of the federal departments of Civil Aviation and of Air at the airport.

For more in-depth information, review OSAC’s Australia country page for original OSAC reporting, consular messages, and contact information, some of which may be available only to private-sector representatives with an OSAC password. Travel Advisory The current U.S. Department of State Travel Advisory at the date of this report’s publication assesses Australia at Level 1, indicating travelers should exercise normal precautions. Review OSAC’s report, Understanding the Consular Travel Advisory System. Overall Crime and Safety Situation Crime Threats The U.S. Department of State has assessed Canberra as being a LOW-threat location for crime directed at or affecting official U.S. government interests. Property crimes, such as burglary, breaking and entering, and theft occur throughout Australia, and are among the crimes most likely for Australians and foreigners alike to encounter. Physical assaults are relatively uncommon, but occur with greater frequency in specific locales, predominantly outside of the city center. Crime in the central business district includes illegal recreational drug use and associated behavior, particularly after midnight. According to the Australian Bureau of Statistics National Crime Victimization Survey, 468,200 Australians (2.4%) experienced physical assault in the 2018-2019 reporting period; 600,900 (3.0%) experienced “threatened assault;” 231,000 households (2.4%) experienced a break-in; and 439,600 households (4.6%) experienced malicious property damage.

    21380 LEGISLATIVE ASSEMBLY Thursday 9 March 2006 ______ Mr Speaker (The Hon. John Joseph Aquilina) took the chair at 10.00 a.m. Mr Speaker offered the Prayer. Mr SPEAKER: I acknowledge the Gadigal clan of the Eora nation and their elders and thank them for the custodianship of this land. ROYAL REHABILITATION CENTRE SYDNEY SITE PROTECTION BILL Second Reading Debate resumed from 2 March 2006. Mr ANTHONY ROBERTS (Lane Cove) [10.02 a.m.]: It is with great pride that I once again today stand shoulder to shoulder with my residents and community in protecting my electorate from gross overdevelopment. As I stated last week, we have more than 2,500 signatures on petitions opposing this overdevelopment and thousands have marched in my electorate and other electorates protesting against this proposal. I must pay particular tribute to each and every one of those people in Putney and surrounding areas who have supported our plight in an area that is becoming the target of more and more overdevelopment. The area is already suffering from extensive infrastructure and traffic problems. So far it has been able to maintain an appropriate level of housing. However, once again, we are confronting a proposal from a greedy developer to turn one of the most magnificent areas of Sydney—in fact, of the country—into something reminiscent of the inner city. I pay tribute particularly to Rolf Clapham of the Coalition Against Private Overdevelopment [CAPO], Graham Clift, Ted Webber, Susan Macgregor, Eleanor Chaine, Simone Chaine, Rona Agnew, Simone Galvin and Kylie Rennie for their assistance and leadership in this matter.
