(2) notes that the Government has also allowed the budget position to materially deteriorate by failing to deliver its own stated objective of a revenue neutral outcome on the Review of Business Taxation and its failure to confront major threats to the revenue through a growing tax avoidance industry including through the use of offshore tax havens; and (3) notes that, as a result of these failures, the Government lacks the capacity to enhance the international competitiveness of Australia’s taxation system, return the full value of bracket creep either through tax cuts or services, provide the health and education services needed by low and middle income Australians, and support the provision of retirement incomes for all Australians.” 19 TRADE PRACTICES LEGISLATION AMENDMENT BILL 2003 (Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister for Finance and Administration): Second reading—Resumption of debate (from 27 March 2003— Mr Sidebottom). 20 WORKPLACE RELATIONS AMENDMENT (SIMPLIFYING AGREEMENT-MAKING) BILL 2002 (Minister for Employment and Workplace Relations): Second reading—Resumption of debate (from 26 June 2002—Mr Cox). 21 WORKPLACE RELATIONS AMENDMENT (CHOICE IN AWARD COVERAGE) BILL 2002 (Minister for Employment and Workplace Relations): Second reading—Resumption of debate (from 13 November 2002—Mr Melham).

  • Victorian and ACT Electoral Boundary Redistribution
    Barton Deakin Brief: Victorian and ACT Electoral Boundary Redistribution 9 April 2018 Last week, the Australian Electoral Commission (‘AEC’) announced substantial redistributions for the Electorate Divisions in Victoria and the ACT. The redistribution creates a third Federal seat in the ACT and an additional seat in Victoria. These new seats are accompanied by substantial boundary changes in Victoria and the ACT. ABC electoral analyst Antony Green has predicted that the redistribution would notionally give the Australian Labor Party an additional three seats in the next election – the Divisions of Dunkley, Fraser, and Bean – while the seat of Corangamite would become one of the most marginal seats in the country. The proposed changes will now be subject to a consultation period where objections to the changes may be submitted to the AEC. The objection period closes at 6pm May 4 in both the ACT and Victoria. A proposed redistribution for South Australia will be announced on April 13. This Barton Deakin Brief will summarize the key electoral boundary changes in the ACT and Victoria. New Seats The Redistribution Committee has proposed that four of Victoria’s electoral divisions be renamed. Additionally, two new seats are to be created in Victoria and the ACT New Seats Proposed for Victoria and ACT DIVISION OF BEAN (ACT) New seat encompassing much of the former Division of Canberra. The seat will be named after World War I war correspondent Charles Edwin Woodrow Green (1879-1968) DIVISION OF FRASER (VIC) New seat named after former Liberal Party Prime Minister John Malcolm Fraser AC CH GCL (1930-2015), to be located in Melbourne’s western suburbs.

  • O'conner JSE Vol 7 Dec2014
    Journal of Sustainability Education Vol. 7, December 2014 ISSN: 2151-7452 Sustainability Across The Australian Curriculum: Will It Remain A Priority? Hannah O’Connor Deakin University, Melbourne, Australia. Abstract: The purpose of this article is to articulate the significance of education for sustainable development in order to support the integration of sustainability as a cross- curricular priority within the newly developed Australian Curriculum. An investigation into the implementation of sustainability across the curriculum was carried out in two Australian public schools in order to identify its relevancy to various learning areas. The developmental history of the Australian Curriculum will be explored to contextualize this article within the current socio-political environment. Discussions with teachers suggested that the political agendas surrounding the curriculum had influenced the implementation of sustainability in different learning areas. The school located in the Labor electorate had demonstrated their ability to implement sustainability in all six learning areas investigated. Results from the school located within the Liberal electorate showed that sustainability was less of a priority with the implementation of three out of the six learning areas teaching sustainability organizing ideas to students. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with the head of curriculum of both schools and their perception of the environment was determined using Sauvè’s (1992, 1994) typology of conceptions for the environment. Focus group discussions with year seven and ten students had identified conceptions similar to that of their head of curriculum. Students identified environmental issues in their discussions and suggested education, as a means for combating climate change. Students expressed that sustainability was important and did so with concerns for the future.

    Howard Government Retrospective IV “The Desire for Change: 2004–2007” 18-19 November 2019 National Press Club, Canberra Howard Government Retrospective IV Conference sponsors: Conference Broadcast Partner: 2 University of New South Wales Canberra The Desire for Change: 2004–2007 The Howard Government Retrospective Conference Series he Liberal-National Party Coalition led by John THoward won office on 2 March 1996 and continued to hold power until 3 December 2007 (after losing the election held on 24 November 2007). UNSW Canberra is hosting a series of retrospective conferences to assess the performance of the Howard Government. Each event provides the basis for collections of essays contributed by principal participants, key public servants, leading commentators and notable scholars drawing on documents in the John Howard Collection held at the Defence Force Academy Library and other papers managed by the Howard Library at Provisional (Old) Parliament House. This series has become the ‘standard’ treatment of the Howard years. Contributors have been asked to focus critically on the Coalition’s policies and performance to reveal the Government’s shortcomings and failures. This commitment to a candid critique will attract the attention of the press and current-serving politicians, affording the volumes a substantial public profile at the time of their release. UNSW Press is the series publisher. The first conference covered the 1996 election, the Coalition’s readiness for office, the main policy decisions and practical challenges of the first year of the Howard Government, including gun control and ministerial responsibility. The second conference dealt with the second and third years of the Coalition’s first term in office (1997-98) and most of its second term (1998-2001).
