Quarterly Report July – September 2019 About the CRRMH CENTRE FOR RURAL & REMOTE MENTAL HEALTH Quarterly Report July – September 2019 About the CRRMH The Centre for Rural and Remote Mental Health (CRRMH) is based in Orange NSW and is a major rural initiative of the University of Newcastle and the NSW Ministry of Health. Our staff are located across rural and remote NSW. The Centre is committed to improving mental health and wellbeing in rural and remote communities. We focus on the following key areas: • the promotion of good mental health and the prevention of mental illness; • developing the mental health system to better meet the needs of people living in rural and remote regions; and • understanding and responding to rural suicide. Centre for Rural and Remote Mental Health As the Australian Collaborating Centre for the International Foundation for PO Box 8043 Integrated Care, we promote patient-centred rather than provider-focused Orange East NSW 2800 care that integrates mental and physical health concerns.

Its impact arises in many guises and impacts all of us in different ways. One theme is clear – no one seems to have a clear idea about how to address it. There is an obvious political imperative to do something and a wide range of initiatives from government, voluntary organisations and communities themselves to deal with impacts such as water insecurity, shortages of animal feed, the continued costs which are not balanced by incomes, the impact of reduced incomes on rural businesses and the impact on the carers and services such as our RAMHP Coordinators, Rural Resilience Workers and similar services. The question, “Who cares for the carers?” arises in many forms. Our RAMHP workers live and work in rural and remote areas. They are “permanent residents” and cannot go home to escape the rigours of the drought. We have also experienced early and serious fires in the north of the state, and our RAMHP workers are fully engaged linking people to the services they need, providing information, and playing their full part in the strategic response. Frequently, they are going beyond their roles supporting newly appointed staff and new arrivals appointed to provide extra short-term resources. Our rural and remote staff and their families are not immune personally from the difficulties facing their communities with rural businesses and amenities facing reduced incomes and challenges to their viability and continued existence. As an established high-quality service, RAMHP and the CRRMH support team are proving their worth and their resilience and it is encouraging to see that contribution being recognised. Most recently, the CRRMH was awarded the National Mental Health Foundation’s Mental Health Organisation of the Year and this follows upon the TheMHS Medal for the Glove Box Guide, a NSW Premiers Award, and a national nomination for our podcast series. Such recognition is encouraging but should not divert us from the main game which is the support of rural communities and their members as they face various adversities. These are long term issues requiring consistent and reliable support and towards the end of another year, I am truly proud of our team and their contribution to rural Australia.

  • Aap Submission to the Senate Inquiry on Media Diversity
    AAP SUBMISSION TO THE SENATE INQUIRY ON MEDIA DIVERSITY AAP thanks the Senate for the opportunity to make a submission on the Inquiry into Media Diversity in Australia. What is a newswire A newswire is essentially a wholesaler of fact-based news content (text, pictures and video). It reports on politics, business, courts, sport and other news and provides this to other media outlets such as newspapers, radio and TV news. Often the newswire provides the only reporting on a subject and hence its decisions as to what to report play a very important role in informing Australians about matters of public interest. It is essential democratic infrastructure. A newswire often partners with other global newswire agencies to bring international stories to a domestic audience and also to take domestic stories out to a global audience. Newswires provided by news agencies have traditionally served as the backbone of the news supply of their respective countries. Due to their business model they contribute strongly to the diversity of media. In general there is a price for a defined number of circulation – be it printed papers, recipients of TV or radio broadcasters or digital recipients. The bigger the circulation, the higher the price thus making the same newswire accessible for small media with less purchasing power as well as for large media conglomerates with strong financial resources.1 ​ This co-operative business model has been practically accepted world-wide since the founding of the Associated Press (AP) in the USA in the mid-19th century. Newswire agencies are “among the oldest ​ media institutions to survive the evolution of media production from the age of the telegraph to the age of 2 platform technologies”.

  • Australian Associated Press Submission to the Senate Inquiry on the Treasury Laws Amendment (News Media and Digital Platforms Mandatory Bargaining Code) Bill 2020
    AUSTRALIAN ASSOCIATED PRESS SUBMISSION TO THE SENATE INQUIRY ON THE TREASURY LAWS AMENDMENT (NEWS MEDIA AND DIGITAL PLATFORMS MANDATORY BARGAINING CODE) BILL 2020 Australian Associated Press (AAP) thanks the Senate for an opportunity to comment on the Treasury Laws Amendment (News Media and Digital Platforms Mandatory Bargaining Code) Bill 2020 (the Bill). ​ ​ The Treasurer has stated that “[t]he News Media and Digital Platforms Mandatory Bargaining Code is ​ ​ a world-leading initiative. It is designed to level the playing field and to ensure a sustainable and viable Australian media landscape. It's a key part of the government's strategy to ensure that the Australian economy is able to take full advantage of the benefits of digital technology, supported by appropriate regulation to protect key elements of Australian society. One such key element is a strong and sustainable Australian news media landscape.”1 ​ AAP supports the Bill in its current form as it assists ‘retail’ media, that is, news media who have a direct-to-consumer “News Source” (as defined in the Bill), at a time when the industry is in a state of deep and prolonged crisis. However whilst the Bill helps AAP’s retail media customers, it does not contemplate a critical pillar of competition and media diversity in the news media industry in Australia - namely wholesale providers of news. One of the most important wholesale suppliers of news content in nearly every country is the national newswire. In Australia, this independent wholesale newswire service is fulfilled by AAP, which has been covering the news continuously for over 85 years.

This submission is long so as to give an adequate summarisation to our proposal and I would appreciate your indulgence in considering the information supplied in its totality. Justice First outline Justice First Inc is a properly constituted pressure group, who is attempting to have the Government legislate in matters of concern to our supporters. These matters were canvassed at six meetings which were curtailed due the early calling of the last election. A number of these meetings were attended by The Attorney General Hon C.C. Porter, Treasurer Hon T.R. Buswell, Hon S.M. O’Brien, executive members and candidates for all the other political parties and some independents, except the Labor Party and Greens. The expression by the Premier that Harm Minimisation is not to be your Government’s approach to drugs is very much appreciated and is also one of the platforms of Justice First arising from the public meetings held.
