  • History of Conservation Reserves in the South-West of Western Australia
    JournalJournal of ofthe the Royal Royal Society Society of ofWestern Western Australia, Australia, 79(4), 79:225–240, December 1996 1996 History of conservation reserves in the south-west of Western Australia G E Rundle WA National Parks and Reserves Association, The Peninsula Community Centre, 219 Railway Parade, Maylands WA 6051 Abstract Focusing on the Darling Botanical District, reservation in the south-west of Western Australia largely involves the forest estate. The remaining natural bushland today is mainly reserves of State forest and so further opportunities to create new national parks or nature reserves of any significance would generally mean converting a State forest reserve to some other sort of conser- vation reserve. Thus, the history of Western Australia’s State forest reservation is important. The varied origins of some of the region’s well-known and popular national parks are of special interest. Their preservation as conservation reserves generally had little to do with scien- tific interest and a lot to do with community pleasure in the outdoors and scenery. Their protec- tion from early development had little to do with the flora and habitat protection needs that are the focus of these Symposium proceedings. Factors such as lack of shipping access, the discovery of glittering caverns, and the innovation of excursion railways were involved in saving the day. In contrast, the progressive reservation of State Forest was a hard slog by an insular Forests Depart- ment against many opponents. The creation of a comprehensive system of conservation reserves in this part of Western Australia is an on-going modern phenomenon with continued wide popular support.

  • Bunbury Hospital and • Visiting Medical Officer - St John of God Bunbury Hospital
    General Medicine Specialist Physicians Employment opportunities: • Public Appointment FTE - Bunbury Hospital and • Visiting Medical Officer - St John of God Bunbury Hospital 2.0 Public Hospital sessional FTE available (0.4 to 1 FTE per Physician - negotiable), with concurrent VMO opportunities available at the co-located private St. John of God Bunbury Hospital, Western Australia (WA). The Opportunities Bunbury Hospital (BH) and St. John of God Hospital Bunbury (SJGHB) are co-located on the South-West Health Campus, situated in the city of Bunbury, on the south-west coast of Western Australia. The hospitals share a common emergency department, theatre complex and support facilities. Physicians are sought to contribute to the acute inpatient general medical service at both hospitals. Establishment of a private outpatient practice, to support inpatient services and provide a medical consultation service for the wider community, is encouraged and will be supported. General Physicians with a sub-specialty interest (eg. Cardiology, Gastroenterology, Neurology/Stroke Medicine, Medical Oncology, Renal Medicine, Rheumatology, Infectious Diseases, Endocrinology) will be well-placed to complement the sub-specialty interests of the existing Physician work-force. Due to a longstanding shortage of Physician services in the south-west, all Physicians will find there is a high demand for their expertise in the outpatient setting. The South West Health Campus Bunbury Hospital and St John of God Bunbury Hospital are both soon to undergo redevelopment and expansion, expected to be completed within 4 to 6 years. The South-West has grown in population since the Campus was established in 1999. Along with an aging population, rapid population growth has led to the South-West Health Campus nearing its capacity.

The Ellensbrook (Margaret River), Bindoon and Milyeannup (Nannup) bushfi res, South West land division storm and Tropical Cyclone Lua were just a few of the emergencies that required access to the emergency powers of the Emergency Management Act 2005. The year also saw a great deal of learning for Western Australian emergency management practitioners. Two Reports; Appreciating the Risk: Report of the Special Inquiry into the November 2011 Margaret River Bushfi re and the Community Development and Justice Standing Committee’s Report on Western Australia’s Readiness for the 2011/12 Bushfi re Season, were released during the year and made a number of key recommendations that directly impacted the way emergency management is practiced in the State. The State Emergency Management Committee (SEMC) carried out its functions under the Emergency Management Act 2005 in a dynamic environment. Change was being implemented at both a State and national level and SEMC, through the SEMC sub- committees and District and Local Emergency Management Committees, needed to respond by developing and implementing new policies, plans and procedures, which comprise the State’s emergency management arrangements. SEMC itself was also directly impacted by change and was re-constituted at the end of July 2012 to include an independent Chair and two other independent members.
