HON KEN TRAVERS, MLC (Member for North Metropolitan Region)
PARLIAMENT OF WESTERN AUSTRALIA VALEDICTORY SPEECH AND VALEDICTORY REMARKS MOTION HON KEN TRAVERS, MLC (Member for North Metropolitan Region) Legislative Council Thursday, 25 August 2016 Reprinted from Hansard Legislative Council Thursday, 25 August 2016 ____________________________________________________________________________________________ APPROPRIATION (RECURRENT 2016–17) BILL 2016 APPROPRIATION (CAPITAL 2016–17) BILL 2016 Second Reading — Cognate Debate HON KEN TRAVERS (North Metropolitan) [2.32 pm]: Mr President, this is my one last blast, I guess. Today I thought that I would wear the tie that I wore during my swearing-in. I commence by acknowledging the Whadjuk Noongar people and pay my respects to their elders, past and present, for one last time in this chamber. It is good to see that Pokémon has brought a crowd into the gallery! It has clearly moved from Kings Park over to the public gallery. I worked out that I have been a member of the Legislative Council for almost 170 000 hours, which I think makes the amount of time that I have spoken in this chamber quite reasonable, in fact, and quite modest. It is with a great deal of pride that I stand here never having missed a division. I hope the Whip and her predecessors appreciate that. It is also fitting that I make my final speech on the appropriation bills because when I arrived in this place, I knew very little about the state’s finances. After 16 years on various estimates and finance committees of this house, I leave, I think, knowing too much about the state’s finances, and sometimes their state depresses me. -
Political Chronicles Commonwealth of Australia
Australian Journal of Politics and History: Volume 53, Number 4, 2007, pp. 614-667. Political Chronicles Commonwealth of Australia January to June 2007 JOHN WANNA The Australian National University and Griffith University Shadow Dancing Towards the 2007 Election The election year began with Prime Minister John Howard facing the new Opposition leader, Kevin Rudd. Two developments were immediately apparent: as a younger fresher face Rudd played up his novelty value and quickly won public support; whereas Howard did not know how to handle his new “conservative” adversary. Rudd adopted the tactic of constantly calling himself the “alternative prime minister” while making national announcements and issuing invitations for summits as if he were running the government. He promised to reform federal-state relations, to work collaboratively with the states on matters such as health care, to invest in an “education revolution”, provide universal access to early childhood education, and to fast-track high-speed broadbanding at a cost of $4.7 billion. Rudd also began to stalk and shadow the prime minister around the country — a PM “Doppelgänger” — appearing in the same cities or at the same venues often on the same day (even going to the Sydney cricket test match together). Should his office receive word of the prime minister’s intended movements or scheduled policy announcements, Rudd would often appear at the location first or make upstaging announcements to take the wind from the PM’s sails. Politics was a tactical game like chess and Rudd wanted to be seen taking the initiative. He claimed he thought “it will be fun to play with his [John Howard’s] mind for a while” (Weekend Australian Magazine, 10-11 February 2007). -

TIMELINE: Gold Royalty in Western Australia © Michael Darby 18 Oct 2019 1 July 1998 Introduction of WA gold royalty; 2.5% of the royalty value of the gold metal produced. The first 2,500 ounces of gold metal produced by each gold royalty project per annum are exempt.1 17 May 2012 Delivering the Budget, WA Treasurer Christian Porter surprised the mining industry by announcing a three-year review of the state's royalty regime. The move was forecast to raise an extra $180 million in 2015-16 but miners feared the actual take would be much higher2. 4 December 2013 Bill Johnston MLA (now ALP Govt Minister for Mines and Petroleum; Energy; Industrial Relations) told Parliament: “We do not support increasing royalties3. We do not support the figure of $180m or a 35 per cent increase in the royalties for the non-iron ore sector. .” 28 February 2015 A Weekend West article “Start ad blitz, Labor tells goldminers” reported: “Opposition Leader Mark McGowan has urged the gold industry to launch a politically damaging advertising campaign against the Barnett Government over its possible plan to raise royalties on the precious metal. Mr McGowan made the suggestion after a request from the goldminers’ lobby group for a Labor commitment to support a disallowance motion in Parliament against any increase to gold royalties. The Gold Royalties Response Group . has secured written commitments from Mr McGowan, Labor’s leader of the Upper House Sue Ellery and Greens MLC Robin Chapple to support any disallowance motion brought to the Legislative Council..”4 7 September 2017 In the Budget Speech, Treasurer Hon Ben Wyatt MLA announced an increase in the gold royalty intended to raised $392m over four years.5 The Treasurer expressed his view: “It’s about the gold sector delivering returns to the people that are in line with community expectations and other commodities. -
