  • Queensland Arts Council Strategic Plan, 2001-2003
    ARTS FACILITATION AND CREATIVE COMMUNITY CULTURE: A STUDY OF QUEENSLAND ARTS COUNCIL by Michael John Richards ADVA, MA. Submitted to the Faculty of Creative Industries at Queensland University of Technology, in support of an application for admission to the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, January 2005. 1 LIST OF KEYWORDS Civil Society Community Arts Community Cultural Development Community Revitalisation Community Engagement Creative Class Creative Industries Cultural Industries Cultural Policy Excellence Elite(s) Knowledge Class Meritocracy Regional Arts 2 ABSTRACT This thesis adopts a Cultural Industries framework to examine how Queensland’s arts council network has, through the provision of arts products and services, contributed to the vitality, health and sustainability of Queensland’s regional communities. It charts the history of the network, its configuration and impact since 1961, with particular focus on the years 2001 - 2004, envisages future trends, and provides an analysis of key issues which may be used to guide future policies and programs. Analysis is guided by a Cultural Industries understanding of the arts embedded in everyday life, and views the arts as a range of activities which, by virtue of their aesthetic and symbolic dimensions, enhance human existence through their impact on both the quality and style of human life. Benefits include enhanced leisure and entertainment options, and educational, social, health, personal growth, and economic outcomes, and other indirect benefits which enrich environment and lifestyle. Queensland Arts Council (QAC) and its network of branches has been a dominant factor in the evolution of Queensland’s cultural environment since the middle of the 20th century. Across the state, branches became the public face of the arts, drove cultural agendas, initiated and managed activities, advised governments, wrote cultural policies, lobbied, raised funds and laboured to realise cultural facilities and infrastructure.

  • Prospects for Aquaculture and Amendments to the Fisheries Act Under the Primary Industries and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2003 (Qld)
    Queensland Parliamentary Library Prospects for Aquaculture and amendments to the Fisheries Act under the Primary Industries and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2003 (Qld) At least two recent developments have put the spotlight on aquaculture in Queensland. The first is the proposal for the development of a fish farm in Moreton Bay. Secondly, there has been an escalation in regulatory controls on recreational and commercial wild fish catches to guard against overexploitation. Aquaculture is a developing and promising Queensland industry that may have the potential to fill the gap between the public’s demand for fish and shellfish and the emerging shortage in wild fish supplies. However, there are a number of factors that impact upon the development of the aquaculture industry with environmental impacts of projects being a primary issue for producers. A number of regulatory controls on aquaculture developments are aimed at minimising environmental harm, including a development assessment process under the Integrated Planning Act 1997 (Qld). In recognition of the problems created for producers by duplication of planning and assessment processes, the Primary Industries and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2003 (Qld) has been introduced to amend the Fisheries Act 1994 (Qld) to require that certain fisheries development proposals are assessed under the Integrated Planning Act 1997.

  • Jason Costigan
    Speech by Jason Costigan MEMBER FOR WHITSUNDAY Hansard Wednesday, 30 May 2012 MAIDEN SPEECH Mr COSTIGAN (Whitsunday—LNP) (4.08 pm): It gives me tremendous pleasure to rise as the first LNP member for Whitsunday, fulfilling my dream of representing a region that is very dear to my heart. First, though, I take this opportunity to congratulate the Speaker of the House on her historic appointment; the Premier, the Hon. Campbell Newman MP, on his historic election; and all members on their success in being part of the 54th Parliament. I look around the House and think back to 1865, when the foundation stone was laid—the same year that my great-great-grandfather came to Mackay as a pioneering police officer, having previously served as an officer of the Royal Irish Constabulary before arriving in Queensland. Pat Costigan served in Mackay and nearby Walkerston and by 1873 took up his posting as the first officer in charge at Nebo. Five generations later, there is still plenty of Nebo in my DNA. In fact, the Costigans have been in Queensland before there even was a Queensland, with William Costigan being part of that famous but ill-fated expedition to the north led by Edmund Kennedy way back in 1848, landing on the shores of Rockingham Bay north of present-day Cardwell. I come from humble stock in what used to be called the Brigalow Belt, well before the term ‘Bowen Basin’ became part of Queensland’s vernacular, with the emergence of the juggernaut that is now the coalmining industry in the Mackay-Whitsunday hinterland.

I would like to start this public hearing for the Productivity Commission’s inquiry into the impacts of native vegetation and biodiversity controls. My name is Neil Byron. I’m the presiding commissioner for this inquiry, and my colleague is Prof Warren Musgrave who is also a commissioner. You’re probably here because you’re aware of the terms of reference, so I won’t attempt to summarise all that. But I would like to say that we have spoken to organisations, land-holders, environmental groups, state and Commonwealth agencies, all sorts of people with an interest in the issues. We’ve received over a hundred submissions from all around Australia so far. We held formal public hearings like this in Brisbane last Monday. Next week we’re in Canberra, Perth and Adelaide and it sort of goes on after that. The purpose of these inquiries is to provide an opportunity for interested parties to formally put on the record their views and their evidence on the matters under examination. We’re working towards producing a draft report for public comment that will go out in probably the beginning of December.
