It has been another successful year. I would like to thank the Directors and Council Staff for their enthusiasm and co-operation. Thanks also to Karen and Donna for their work ethic, their enthusiasm and their productivity. The strong working relationship between Councils and the Group has continued as we strive to meet our regional targets of reducing waste, increased recycling and best practice waste management. I was personally pleased with Cohuna/Leitchville attaining two years plastic shopping bag free status and we had a terrific day handing out certificates with Kaye Darveniza, MP officiating the ceremony and we received lots of positive feedback from the traders as we met with each of them during the day. Across the region the continued rolling out of the plastic bag free program has been a success with 33 towns now ‘Plastic Bag Free’. Mention should also be made of the Loddon Shire and CMRWMG who received a Keep Australia Beautiful State Award for the Shire being Plastic Shopping Bag Free.

  • Action Statement
    Action Statement Flora and Fauna Guarantee Act 1988 No. 171 (Revised in 2009 ) Turnip Copperburr Sclerolaena napiformis This revised Action Statement is based on the Recovery Plan prepared for this species by DSE under contract to the Commonwealth Department of the Environment, Water, Heritage and the Arts. Description The Turnip Copperburr (formerly Turnip Bassia; Sclerolaena napiformis ) is a small, procumbent 1 to erect perennial saltbush (family Chenopodiaceae), which grows to approximately 30 cm in height. Covered in short erect or curled hairs, its slender branches arise from a thick and long perennial taproot. The leaves are linear, 5 – 15 mm long and covered with appressed hairs. The flowers are green, tiny, solitary and occur in the leaf axils. The distinctive fruits have 5 – 6 spines and are sparsely to moderately pubescent. Flowering commences in November and fruits fall to the ground in autumn (until May) (description from George 1984a). For a further description of the species see George (1984a, b), Harden (1990) Turnip Copperburr (Sclerolaena napiformis) and Walsh and Entwisle (1996). Photo: John Eichler Distribution S. napiformis is known from 23 populations in Victoria (although there is likely to be more), scattered across the Wimmera and the northern Riverina plains and at several sites in the southern Riverina of NSW, around Jerilderie and Moama. The species was first described by Paul G. Wilson in 1984 (as part of the Flora of Australia project; George 1984a) and there is little historical information on its former distribution. The location and habitat of existing populations suggest that the species was likely to have occurred in grasslands across northern Victoria Distribution in Victoria and in parts of the Southern Riverina Plains in (source: Flora Information System, DSE 2004) NSW.

  • Reform of the Psychiatric Disability Rehabilitation and Support Services Program
    Mental Health Community Support Services June 2014 Fact Sheet 2: Information for Existing Clients Fact Sheet: Information for Existing Clients This fact sheet provides information for current clients of mental health community support services provided under the Victorian Psychiatric Disability Rehabilitation and Support Services (PDRSS) program. It includes information about the changes that will happen to these services over the next few months, when these changes will occur and how the changes might affect you. As part of these changes the Victorian Government will also change the name of the PDRSS program to Mental Health Community Support Services (MHCSS) program from August 2014. This change is about supporting you. The changes will ensure access to mental health community support services is fair and equitable by ensuring people most disabled by their mental health condition do not miss out on the support they need. The reforms will make it easier for new and returning consumers and carers to get help no matter where they live. This will be achieved by establishing a centralised intake point for all referrals in each local area. A fact sheet explaining how the new intake assessment system will work will be made available shortly. We also know you want services to be of a consistent quality and designed around your individual needs and preferences. This is why we are introducing Individualised Client Support Packages. They will replace standard, moderate and intensive Home Based Outreach Services, Day Programs, Care Coordination, Aged Intensive Program and Special Client Packages from 1 August 2014. Your support package will help you to develop the life skills needed to live well in the community and to manage your mental illness.
