  • Aboriginal Reconciliation Action Plan 2017–19 Summary
    Aboriginal Reconciliation Action Plan 2017–19 Summary Cover art: Jarra Karalinar Steel, Boon Wurrung Alfred Health uses the term ‘Aboriginal’ to mean both Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander throughout this document Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples are warned that this document may contain images and names of deceased people. Message from our Chief Executive I am delighted to present Alfred Health’s first Reconciliation Action Plan (RAP): a living and practical plan built around strong relationships, respect and pride in our local Aboriginal community and the potential for employment and business opportunities. This plan is something of a watershed in our relationship with our Aboriginal community. It recognises that we need to do better in providing care for our Aboriginal patients and commits us to a journey to achieve greater equality in healthcare for our first peoples. Already it has been a two-year journey in developing this plan and along the way we have learnt much about what reconciliation means to us and the importance of meaningful and respectful relationships. Thanks must go to the many people involved in creating this plan, particularly to local elder Caroline Briggs, The Boon Wurrung Foundation, and Reconciliation Australia who have supported and guided us through this process. More about our plan The vision for reconciliation is for all Australians to be equal, to have equal opportunities and for there to be trust as we move forward in a shared vision for our country. I sincerely hope that this plan This plan is a summary of and the energy and commitment of our Alfred Health staff will contribute to achieving this vision.

  • Annual Water Outlook 2019-2020
    Annual Water Outlook 2019-2020 30 November 2019 December 2019 marks 100 years since work to build Lake Glenmaggie commenced in 1919. Glenmaggie Weir has brought many benefits to the local district. Its primary purpose is to supply irrigation to the Macalister Irrigation District, but the Lake is also an iconic holiday destination and recreation facility. Introduction The Minister for Water has delegated Southern Rural Water (SRW) with the responsibility for managing surface water licensing, groundwater extraction, storage dams and irrigation districts across the southern third of Victoria. Within this wide geographic area, SRW manages take and use licenses from waterways, farm dam registrations, licences relating to catchment dams and seven major dams, and operates irrigation districts. Water use is primarily for agricultural, urban and industrial purposes. SRW manages the Macalister Irrigation District (MID) in central Gippsland and the Werribee (WID) and Bacchus Marsh (BMID) irrigation districts west of Melbourne. The majority of the water used in the irrigation districts is for primary agricultural production, along with stock and domestic and minor industrial use. Water shares are held by individual customers within the districts and transactions are recorded in the Victorian Water Register. Blue Rock Lake (part of the Latrobe River system) plays a major role in providing cooling water for Victoria’s brown coal power generation. These are bulk entitlements held by the various companies which own and run the power stations. Blue Rock Lake and Lake Glenmaggie have environmental water entitlements (bulk entitlements and water shares respectively) that are managed by the West Gippsland Catchment Management Authority on behalf of the Victorian Environmental Water Holder.
