  • Transcript of the Hearing Care Industry Association Parliamentary Breakfast 16 August 2017
    Transcript of the Hearing Care Industry Association Parliamentary Breakfast 16 August 2017 DONNA STAUNTON: Good morning. And thanks, everybody, for coming. I'll start by acknowledging the traditional owners of this land, Ngunnawal and Ngambri peoples, and respect their Elders past and present. It's a great pleasure to welcome you all here today - actually. It's an event that the Hearing Care Industry Association looks forward to every year during Hearing Awareness Week. And this year, we are delighted, actually, we're going to be launching the update of a pretty significant report in relation to the social and economic costs of hearing loss. So, thank you. I would have started by welcoming Ken Wyatt, but I will do that when he arrives. He is currently beng interviewed by media about the new report. I will welcome Minister Laundy, thank you for coming. Craig has been coming to our breakfast for some time and we certainly appreciate it. Julie Collins, Shadow Minister Ageing and Mental Health, Welcome, Julie. Nola Marino, a Longtime Supporter of This Breakfast and Hearing impaired people, welcome again. Rowan Ramsey, also somebody who has been turning up to these breakfasts for a while. Rachel Sievert, it's important we welcome Senator Rachel Siewert and Senator Claire Moore. They started this whole thing off, in my view in relation to looking at hearing health. They published a report in 2010, they made pretty significant recommendations. Frankly, little has happened since then, so I am hoping that Trent Zimmerman and Steve Georganas, who are now the chair and co-chair of the current House of Representatives Select committee looking at hearing health, will pick up on the recommendations that were made many years ago and will publish a report which will look at service delivery and hearing provision and awareness campaigns and the things that we do need for hearing impaired people in Australia.

  • 27 September 2019 Committee Secretary Joint S
    __________________________________________________________________________________ 27 September 2019 Committee Secretary Joint Standing Committee on Electoral Matters (JSCEM) PO Box 6021 Parliament House Canberra ACT 2600 Via email only: [email protected] Dear Committee Secretary, Submission to the JSCEM Inquiry into and report on all aspects of the conduct of the 2019 Federal Election and matters related thereto 1. Thank you for the opportunity to provide the submission responsive to the Terms of Reference of the Joint Standing Committee on Electoral Matters’ (‘JSCEM’) regarding the Inquiry into and report on all aspects of the conduct of the 2019 Federal Election and matters related thereto. Introduction 2. I am a lawyer based in Brisbane, Queensland. I was a candidate in the 2019 federal election in the federal division of Dickson in Queensland (‘Dickson’). On or about 18 May 2018, I was preselected by the Queensland Greens for the federal division of Dickson. I spent the best part of 10 months campaigning in relation to the 2018-2019 federal election from about July 2018 to May 2019. 3. I note the broad Terms of Reference for this inquiry as follows: That the Joint Standing Committee on Electoral Matters inquire into and report on all aspects of the conduct of the 2019 Federal Election and matters related thereto.1 4. The matter I wish to provide a submission on is the occurrence of misleading How-to- Vote brochures that were handed out at about 9 polling booths across Dickson on Election Day, 18 May 2019, under the title “Vote for Queensland – How to Vote for a Minor Party or Independent” and which directly contradicted the official How-to-Vote Card of my campaign and the official How-to-Vote cards of other Minority Parties and the Independent Candidate for Dickson.

I hope too that you can reflect back on a worthwhile year and are looking forward to 2009 with optimism. For our part we have a very full year and with the recent changes in our department, next year will not be dull. Our Chief Executive John Carroll has left and Richard Galton is our acting departing head in the interim. Once a permanent appointment has been made, the Chief Executive will be based in Alice Springs, as will the head of Primary Industries, Rod Gobbey. With our new department, we have taken over responsibility for regional development. That group will be headed by Fran Kilgariff, also based in Alice Springs. Phil Anning will move from Alice Springs, where he has been Regional Director for many years, and lead the Regional Development division in Katherine. The Primary Industry Group has also been reorganised, bringing the laboratories and research farms directly under the operational divisions. The main changes for the Katherine region are that the Crops, Forestry & Horticulture Division will be renamed ‘Plant Industries’ and enlarged by including the plant pathologists and entomologists who support the crops and horticulture industries.
