ELLIOTT (Cunningham—Minister for Tourism, National Parks, Sport and The Arts) (11.3 a.m.): On Tuesday, 13 October, the honourable member for Lytton made attacks on two members of rhy department, well knowing that they, as public servants, cannot defend themselves. He referred to the Deputy Co-ordinator of the Department of The Arts, National Parks and Sport, Mr Allen CaUaghan, and to the Director of Sport, Mr Stan Wilcox. In his usual carel^s handling of the truth, the member for Lytton implied that Mr CaUaghan had been appointed to a position in my department and then became the Director of the Queensland Film Corporation.

The Influence of the National Park Concept on Kosciusko National Park
THE INFLUENCE OF THE NATIONAL PARK CONCEPT ON KOSCIUSKO NATIONAL PARK By MONICA MCDONALD BA(Hons) Australian National University A dissertation submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Resource and Environmental Studies. February 1981 i DECLARATION Except where otherwise indicated, this dissertation is my own work. (Monica McDonald) February 1981 ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I wish to thank the New South Wales National Parks and Wildlife Service for granting me access to the Kosciusko National Park Files and the Service's staff at Sawpit Creek for their aid in this respect. Many thanks also to Alec Costin for supervising my researches. iii ABSTRACT An introductory study of the development of the national park concept and its influence upon decision-making and the ecological condition of the Kosciusko National Park. The study concentrates upon conflicts and the contradictions within the national park concept and between the national park land use and other land uses. These conflicts centre around the aims of national parks to preserve the natural ecological condition of an area and to allow public recreational use of that area. Further complications arise over the definitions of 'natural ecological condition' and 'democratic public use'. The history of Kosciusko National Park from 1944 (when it was established as Kosciusko State Park) to 1980 demonstrates the continued lack of resolution of these conflicts, from a period when little was known about natural l ecosystem management to the present, when the ecological impacts of recreational uses are more widely understood. An additional feature of the Park's history has been the making of decisions important for the area's preservation as a national park without consideration of basic national park aims. -

Proceedings of an International Year of Mountains: Part 4
Day Three – Plenary Session Celebrating Mountains – An International Year of Mountains Conference 309 Jindabyne, New South Wales, Australia 310 Celebrating Mountains – An International Year of Mountains Conference Jindabyne, New South Wales, Australia Mountains And Tourism : Meeting The Challenges Of Sustainability In A Messy World Stephen F McCool School of Forestry, The University of Montana, Missoula, Montana, USA Abstract The power of mountains to inspire, enhance our spiritual well-being, and excite and challenge serves as the foundation for a growing tourism industry worldwide. The decisions to develop and sustain this tourism industry—to say nothing of determining what it is that tourism should sustain—require multiple actors, acting in a variety of roles seeking somewhat overlapping, sometimes conflicting goals. Tourism management situations are increasingly confused and contentious, with not only multiple goals, but differing perceptions of sustainability, inequitable distributions of political power, structural distortions in access to information and changing paradigms of protected area planning. Traditional planning processes are not particularly well-suited for making decisions in this “messy” situation. Other approaches combining scientific and technical knowledge, learning, accommodation of interests and consensus building offer some optimism for those interested in managing mountain landscapes for tourism. Escalating Challenges and Emerging Opportunities The power of mountains to arouse our dreams, to enhance our spiritual well being, to stir our imaginations, to empower our passions, to excite our senses and challenge our capabilities serves as the foundation for a growing international tourism industry. Largely, the foundation for this industry is not just the overwhelming magnificence, beauty and serenity of mountain landscapes, the infinite combination of geology, topography, water and vegetation that are found in them, but also the meanings and symbols that people attach to mountain environments. -

THE LIBRARY OF THE UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA LOS ANGELES u $"t/t- SUNNY AUSTRALIA IMPRESSIONS OF THE COUNTRY AND PEOPLE To ADRIAN KNOX VIEW FROM THE HILLS NEAR ADELAIDE. [Frontispiece, SUNNY AUSTRALIA IMPRESSIONS OF THE COUNTRY AND PEOPLE BY ARCHIBALD MARSHALL WITH AN INTRODUCTION BY THE RIGHT HON. SIR GEORGE REID, K.C.M.G. HIGH COMMISSIONER OF THE COMMONWEALTH OF AUSTRALIA ILLUSTRATED HODDER AND STOUGHTON LONDON NEW YORK TORONTO Printed &y WcMon Hateil, A Viney, Id., London and Ayletbvry. 104- PREFACE THE Commonwealth is not only large in area, but it possesses many features peculiar to itself, which cannot be understood at first sight. A travelling Englishman who sets out to write a book about Australia is therefore confronted by many difficult problems. Mr. Archibald Marshall seems to have realised that fully. What he has to say of men and manners of city and country life in Australia is put forward with great clear- ness, but as impression only. His views will carry all the more weight on that account. Some very able critics on Australian affairs have lost in force what they have displayed in con- fidence, by printing their flying opinions as if they were the considered judgments of old colonists. This book contains graceful acknowledgments of the kindness which Mr. Marshall received from many Australians. It can safely be said that, in this case, the kindly hospitality for vi PREFACE which the White Continent is famous has been well repaid by Mr. Marshall's generous appre- ciation. The readers of this book will, I think, discover that Mr. -
