Cordner) VIC IMAGE - FOOD AND AGRICULTURE Question No. 1256 Hon. HADDON STOREY asked the Minister for Conservation and Environment, for the Minister for Food and Agriculture: (a) Has the Minister or the Minister's department made use of the services of VIC IMAGE at any time since 1 January 1990; if so, what services were performed by VIe IMAGE and did any part of the services include taking photographs of the Minister? (b) What was the cost of each service provided by VIC IMAGE and who met such cost? Hon. B. T. PULL EN (Minister for Conservation and Environment) - The answer supplied by the Minister for Food and Agriculture is: The format in which records are kept in the department make preparation of material to respond to the honourable member's question extremely time consuming. For example, the AGMEDIA Service makes extensive use of VIC IMAGE, and to trace the nature of each individual service as well as the cost and the source of funds would require manual checking of individual invoices and I am not prepared to devote scarce resources to this task. Considerable effort has already been spent on examining ways to provide the information requested, however no simple solution has been discovered. ENHANCED RESIGNATION PACKAGE - LABOUR Question No. 1285 Hon. G. B. ASHMAN asked the Minister for Consumer Affairs, for the Minister for Labour: In respect of each department, agency and authority within the Minister's administration: (a) How many people had accepted the Enhanced Resignation Package as at 30 August 1991? (b) What is the total value of those payments? QUESTIONS ON NOTICE 1546 COUNCIL Tuesday, 28 April 1992 (c) Did the Enhanced Resignation Package continue to be available after 30 August 1991? Hon. T. C. mEOPHANOUS (Minister for Consumer Affairs) - The answer supplied by the Minister for Labour is: I refer the honourable member to my response to question No. 1052 in the Legislative Assembly as follows: Expressions of interest in the Enhanced Resignation Package were sought from eligible staff. Lodgements of expressions of interest closed on 30 August 1991. A total of 205 officers expressed interest in the Enhanced Resignation Package. This includes staff from the Department of Labour, the Occupational Health and Safety Authority, the Construction Industry Long Service Leave Board, the WorkCare Appeals Board and the Industrial Relations Commission. No offers can be accepted after 29 November 1991. 1. Nil. 2. Nil. 3. No further expressions of interest will be sought. STAFF A TTRmON RATE - TRANSPORT Question No. 1317 Hon. G. B. ASHMAN asked the Minister for Consumer Affairs, for the Minister for Transport: In respect of each department, agency and authority within the Minister's administration, what was the staff attrition rate for each of the financial years 1981-82 to 1990-917 Hon. T. C. mEOPHANOUS (Minister for Consumer Affairs) - The answer supplied by the Minister for Transport is - For the purposes of the honourable member's question, data is provided on the staffing level as at the end of each financial year in order for the net variation in the level of staffing over the financial year to be identified. The data as at each 30 June from 1984 through to 1991 for the Ministry of Transport (which includes the Marine Board of Victoria since 1986-87), the Public Transport Corporation (PTC), Roads Corporation (VicRoads), Grain Elevators Board (GEB) and the Transport Accident Commission was provided in the Treasurer's answer to Question on Notice No. 1022 in the Legislative Assembly (page 1915 of Hansard No. 9,29 October, 1991). The data in respect of the transport agencies as at 30 June for the years from 1981 to 1984 are as follows: 1981 1982 1983 Ministry of Transport N/A· 45 73 GEB 718 721 422 PTC 26674 25505 25924 VicRoads N/A· 6074 6413 • Not available It should be noted that the figures do not include contract or temporary staff. FORMER MINISTERIAL ADVISER - MAJOR PROJECTS Question No. 1340 Hon. M. A. BIRRELL asked the Minister for Manufacturing and Industry Development, for the Minister for Major Projects: Since 1 January 1988, has any department'or agency for which the Minister is responsible appointed any person as - (i) a permanent or temporary public servant; or (ii) a consultant, who has previously worked as a Ministerial adviser to the Cain or Kirner governments; if so, who and when? The Hon. D. R. WHITE (Minister for Manufacturing and Industry Development) - The answer supplied by the Minister for Major Projects Is: I am advised by the Major Projects Unit that the information requested by the honourable member is information which, if it exists, would be held on individual personnel files on public servants; or, in the case of consultants, on the curriculum vitae documentation accompanying their submissions. There would be significant difficulty in accessing that information and, even if it were available, it would not be appropriate for me to provide it, without the express permission of any individuals concerned. If there is a specific issue which the honourable member would like examined, I would be prepared to examine it and respond further.

Our last Australia and the United Nations: Report Card was published in 2007 and marked a point in time when we were highly disappointed with Australia’s engagement with the UN. Australia was not actively contributing in the General Assembly, nor working hard to advance the Millennium Development Goals. We were not rising to meet the challenge of climate change and had just staged an intervention in the Northern Territory that the UN Special Rapporteur on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples later found to be incompatible with Australia’s international human rights obligations. The 2013 Report Card focuses on Australia’s activities following the publication of the last Report Card in 2007 up until the federal election on 7 September 2013.

  • Conference Handbook
    Conference Handbook Welcome to the TasCOSS 2012 Conference It has been four years since TasCOSS staged a statewide conference, so we are delighted to be able to offer a program that is highly relevant to where our sector is now, driven largely by what people in the sector are talking about and coming to grips with. The conference theme of Engagement, Innovation and Equity was selected in recognition of the fact that community sector organisations are having to do more with less funds. We hope delegates will take away some ideas on how to work smarter, as well some fresh inspiration for the important work you do towards making Tasmania a fair, just and inclusive place. Our keynote speaker and deliverer of this year’s Dorothy Pearce Address is national com- munity sector leader Tim Costello, who will speak after the opening of the conference by His Excellency, the Honourable Peter Underwood AC, Governor of Tasmania – a former TasCOSS President. The Governor is also generously hosting a reception for delegates at Government House on the evening of the first day of the conference. Premier Lara Giddings and other MPs with policy oversight of our sector will be letting us know their views – meet them up close and tell them about your work and aspirations. The varied conference program provides scope for everyone to make their contribution, par- ticularly in the concurrent sessions. The diversity of presenters and the diversity of registrations we have received from the community sector, governments, private sector and more should result in some stimulating conversations inside the Grand Ballroom and outside in the foyer.

  • Great Australian Leaders
    Great Australian Leaders 1 HOW DID WE CHOOSE THIS LIST OF 20 GREAT AUSTRALIAN LEADERS? We did not set out to identify the twenty most famous Australians nor the twenty Australians that have had the greatest influence. Rather, we wanted to focus on leaders who have in some way impacted the lives of Australians as a direct result of their leadership qualities, not just their achievements. We have chosen to not focus on modern era politicians as they are widely publicised and critiqued already. The only politicians included are a small group of men and women who have made a particularly unique contribution that differs to that of those normally in their role. The leaders in this book are from a variety of fields and each successfully embodies four key values: 1. GROWTH A leader who does not strive for a one off accomplishment but continually develops themselves and seeks new opportunities. 2. PEOPLE A leader who focuses their efforts on valuing and serving others. 3. RELATIONSHIP A leader who makes their contribution alongside others. 4. INTEGRITY A leader who displays truthfulness and honesty at all times. 1 CONTENTS About The National Young Leaders Day 3 Sir Edmund Barton 4 Sir Donald Bradman 7 Caroline Chisholm 10 Sir Ian Clunies Ross 13 Margaret Court 16 Edith Cowan 19 Alfred Deakin 22 Sir Edward ‘Weary’ Dunlop 25 John Flynn 28 Vida Goldstein 31 Fred Hollows 34 Eddie Mabo 37 Sir Douglas Mawson 40 Sir John Monash 43 Sir Douglas Nicholls 46 Sir Gustav Nossal 49 Dame Roma Mitchell 52 Dick Smith 55 Jim Stynes 58 Steve Waugh 61 Bibliography 64 2 ABOUT THE NATIONAL YOUNG LEADERS DAY Where students get up close to great Australian leaders The National Young Leaders Day is an annual one-day event in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Adelaide and Perth, run by Halogen Australia.
