Strategy Discussion Paper 20-Year State Infrastructure Strategy Discussion Paper June 2019 infrastructure.sa.gov.au The Government has ambitious growth targets for South Australia but this must be achieved in a way that makes South Australia a more sustainable and resilient community and preserves the things that we value about being South Australian. Infrastructure has a critical role in unlocking economic opportunity through providing access to markets and improving productivity. However, it goes beyond pure economic infrastructure to also include our schools, hospitals, prisons, courthouses and sporting and cultural facilities – the assets that enable the services that go to our social fabric and make South Australia the place that it is, allowing our communities to thrive. All these assets are long-term and will have far- reaching impacts as to how we live, across society and for generations. It is therefore important that we have a long-term, integrated plan that will set South Australia up for a prosperous future. This Discussion Paper aims to kick off this process. It sets the scene across regions and sectors, identifies commonalities, explores possible factors that may arise in the medium to long term and poses key questions. The aim is to enable South Australians to collectively consider this important subject as Infrastructure SA develops the 20-Year State Infrastructure Strategy. 2INFRASTRUCTURE SA | 20-YEARINFRASTRUCTURE STATE INFRASTRUCTURE SA | 20-YEAR STRATEGY STATE INFRASTRUCTURE - DISCUSSION PAPER STRATEGY - DISCUSSION PAPER 3 Contents Foreword by Chair 3 Our regions 17 Barossa 17 Introduction 4 Far North 18 Infrastructure SA brings independence to Hills, Fleurieu & Kangaroo Island 18 infrastructure planning 4 Limestone Coast 18 A broad and inclusive definition of infrastructure 4 Murraylands & Riverland 19 The first 20-Year State Infrastructure Strategy Whyalla & Eyre Peninsula 19 due early 2020 4 Yorke & Mid North 19 A strategy that fits with the SA Growth Agenda and other key plans 5 Cross-sectoral considerations: Discussion Paper, conversation starter 5 a systems approach 20 Better integration of land use and Comparative economic outlook 6 infrastructure planning 20 Slight slowdown in global economic growth 6 Improving infrastructure planning and Growth flattening in Australia 6 prioritisation 22 South Australia defying expectations 6 Optimise current assets through better asset management 22 Strong trade and export performance 8 Funding, financing and procurement alternatives 23 Emerging pathways to growth 9 Infrastructure sector considerations 24 Culture, Sport & Tourism 25 Population growth challenges 10 Digital 26 Growing dominance of data and technology 11 Education 27 Health 29 Our people 12 Justice 30 An ageing population 12 Transport 31 An increasingly urban population 13 Utilities 34 Expansive regions, contracting populations 13 First Peoples of Australia 14 References 35 Our new arrivals 14 Process for submissions 36 Our place 15 A great place to live into the future 15 An endlessly compelling destination for visitors 16 Building resilience to climate change 16 Acknowledgement of Country Infrastructure SA acknowledges and respects Aboriginal people as the State’s first people and nations, and recognises Aboriginal people as traditional owners and occupants of South Australian land and waters.

It is designed to formally spark a constructive dialogue – with every person, business, industry, community and government organisation, research body, think tank and anyone else who can help – to ensure efficient infrastructure is available at the right time in the right place to unlock South Australia’s potential. Getting South Australia’s longer-term The latter also necessitates fresh thinking planning right means starting with a clear, about possible funding sources, and ideas accurate and consistent understanding of relating to policy, program and technology how we’re faring at present, our aspirations solutions are encouraged where these would and what we wish to preserve and improve make more sense.

It will also enable productive discourse. access to the social services necessary to support a growing population. This means considering not just short-term infrastructure additions to address gaps and opportunities but also ways to optimise existing assets through better management, upgrades or repurposing for flexibility.

    AUSTRALASIAN HISTORICAL ARCHAEOLOGY, 19,2001 Convicts and the Free: Nineteenth-century lunatic asylums in South Australia and Tasmania (1830-1883) SUSAN PIDDOCK While most ofus are familiar with the idea ofthe lunatic asylum, few people realise that lunatic asylums were intended to be curative places where the insane were return to sanity. In the early nineteenth century a new treatment regime that emphasised the moral management of the insane person in the appropriate environment became popular. This environment was to be provided in the new lunatic asylums being built. This article looks at what this moral environment was and then considers it in the context ofthe provisions made for the insane in two colonies: South Australia and Tasmania. These colonies had totally different backgrounds, one as a colony offree settlers and the other as a convict colony. The continuing use ofnineteenth-century lunatic asylums as modern mental hospitals means that alternative approaches to the traditional approaches ofarchaeology have to be considered, and this article discusses documentary archaeology as one possibility.

  • European Discovery and South Australian Administration of the Northern Territory
    3 Prior to 1911: European discovery and South Australian administration of the Northern Territory The first of five time periods that will be used to structure this account of the development and deployment of vocational education and training in the Northern Territory covers the era when European explorers initially intruded upon the ancient Aboriginal tribal lands and culminates with the colony of South Australia gaining control of the jurisdiction. Great Britain took possession of the northern Australian coastline in 1824 when Captain Bremer declared this section of the continent as part of New South Wales. While there were several abortive attempts to establish settlements along the tropical north coast, the climate and isolation provided insurmountable difficulties for the would-be residents. Similarly, the arid southern portion of this territory proved to be inhospitable and difficult to settle. As part of an ongoing project of establishing the borders of the Australian colonies, the Northern Territory became physically separated from New South Wales when the Colonial Office of Great Britain gave control of the jurisdiction to the Government of the Colony of South Australia in 1863 (The Parliament of the Commonwealth of Australia 1974, p. 83) following the first non-Indigenous south to north crossing of the continent by the South Australian-based explorer John McDouall Stuart in the previous year. 35 VocatioNAL EducatioN ANd TRAiNiNg On the political front, in 1888 South Australia designated the Northern Territory as a single electoral district returning two members to its Legislative Assembly and gave representation in the Upper House in Adelaide. Full adult suffrage was extended by South Australia to all Northern Territory white residents in 1890 that demonstrated an explicit and purposeful disenfranchisement of the much more numerous Asian and Aboriginal populations.

  • Rex Inputs for NSW Government's Submission to The
    12th January 2018 Wayne Murphy Senior Export Adviser NSW Department of Industry Via email: [email protected] RE: Inquiry into the provision of air route service delivery to Regional NSW Dear Wayne, Thank you for requesting our subsidiary, the Australian Airline Pilot Academy (AAPA), to provide input to the NSW Government's submission to the Commonwealth Senate inquiry on the provision or air route service delivery to regional NSW. Ivan Tan forwarded this request through to us. It is quite surprising that Regional Express (Rex), as the largest regional operator of regional air services in NSW, has not been asked for input given the focus of the inquiry. We are also astounded that we were given only two days to respond. It probably reflects the importance the department attaches to this initiative. The deadline is very rushed given the importance of some of the issues we wish to raise. As such, we have done the best we can by listing some key issues, and have attached references to assist in outlining each issue in detail. 1) High Airport Charges We have attached a submission to the WA Government (item 1 – attachment 1) in response to their inquiry on Regional Airfares. This submission sets out the challenges we and other regional airlines face with high airport charges and actions that can be taken by local government to make routes viable. All that has been said for the WA inquiry remains relevant for the NSW situation. We also want to emphasise that in many occasions these high airport charges have been driven by non- essential and extravagant airport upgrades often partially funded by State Governments with absolutely no consultation with operators.

Articles for those interested in Australian Military Aircraft History and Serials Our Editorial and contributing Members in this issue are: John ”JB” Bennett, Garry “Shep” Shepherdson, Gordon “Gordy” Birkett and Patience “FIK” Justification As stated on our Web Page; http://www.adf-serials.com.au/newsletter.htm “First published in November 2002, then regularly until July 2008, the ADF-Serials Newsletter provided subscribers various news and articles that would be of interest to those in Australian Military Heritage. Darren Crick was the first Editor and Site Host; the later role he maintains. The Newsletter from December 2002 was compiled by Jan Herivel who tirelessly composed each issue for nearly six years. She was supported by contributors from a variety of backgrounds on subjects ranging from 1914 to the current period. It wasn’t easy due to the ebb and flow of contributions, but regular columns were kept by those who always made Jan’s deadlines. Jan has since left this site to further her professional ambitions. As stated “The Current ADF-Serials Telegraph is a more modest version than its predecessor, but maintains the direction of being an outlet and circulating Email Newsletter for this site”. Words from me I would argue that it is not a modest version anymore as recent years issues are breaking both page records populated with top quality articles! John and I say that comment is now truly being too modest! As stated, the original Newsletter that started from December 2002 and ended in 2008, and was circulated for 38 Editions, where by now...excluding this edition, the Telegraph has been posted 44 editions since 2011 to the beginning of this year, 2020.
