Mark Speakman, SC MP Minister for the Environment Minister for Heritage 52 Martin Place Sydney NSW 2000 Dear Minister I am pleased to submit to you the Annual Report of the Office of Environment and Heritage for your presentation to the New South Wales Parliament. This report provides a summary of our services and achievements and covers our performance for the period 1 July 2015 to 30 June 2016. In addition, the report contains the audited financial statements and appendices as required by legislation. The report also incorporates the Annual Report of the Heritage Council of NSW for the year ending 30 June 2016. The report was prepared in accordance with the provisions of the Annual Reports (Departments) Act 1985, the Public Finance and Audit Act 1983, regulations under those Acts and NSW Treasury Circular TC10/09. Yours sincerely TERRY BAILEY Chief Executive 1 Annual Report 2015–16: Office of Environment and Heritage Message from the Chief Executive For the Office of Environment and Heritage (OEH), 2015–16 was a year of building the foundations for major NSW Government reforms that will be delivered over the coming years. The most notable of these include developing a new policy and legislative framework for land management and biodiversity conservation in NSW; preparing a strategic plan for the Climate Change Fund; and progressing the development of proposals to revise the Government’s Aboriginal cultural heritage reform model. OEH worked in close collaboration with other agencies and organisations across the sector to deliver a number of Government priorities during 2015–16. Examples of our work include: leading the development of a $240 million Government investment over five years in private land conservation managing the repatriation of 156 Aboriginal ancestral remains and collections of cultural materials to Aboriginal communities in partnership with key stakeholders such as the Australian Museum, National Museum of Australia, University of Sydney, Aboriginal Victoria and the NSW Coroner’s Office entering into an agreement to manage the Murrah Flora Reserves on behalf of the Forestry Corporation of NSW – the reserves total 11,800 hectares and will improve habitat connectivity and management of natural and cultural values, including the only known viable koala population on the NSW Far South Coast endorsing 58 Conservation Management Plans under the Heritage Act 1977 to ensure the conservation of heritage values of Land and Housing Corporation property being sold in the Millers Point area of Sydney as a member of the Marine Estate Management Authority, actively supporting consultation on eight management initiatives to enhance marine biodiversity conservation in the Hawkesbury Shelf marine bioregion, including leading the ‘improving water quality and reducing marine litter’ initiative working with organisations such as Destination NSW and Local Aboriginal Land Councils to improve and create new tourism and visitor experiences, including producing nine promotional films to showcase Aboriginal-owned and operated tours licensed to operate in NSW; and investing $1.8 million in upgrades to the Royal Coast Track developing a package of coastal reforms, including $83.6 million for coastal management over five years from 2016–17, with the Department of Planning and Environment launching the WilderQuest Learning portal which in the six months to the end of June 2016 had over 750 teachers and 590 schools register to use the education resources. I would also like to take this opportunity to publicly recognise the outstanding efforts of so many OEH staff who continue to deliver what we refer to as ‘business as usual’ to care for and protect NSW’s natural environment, Aboriginal country, culture and heritage, and built heritage. This includes providing advice to the community, industry and other agencies across a range of activities such as planning, resource efficiency, heritage, coast and flood protection, compliance and enforcement; maintaining our parks and reserves; engaging with local communities; creating and delivering education programs; 2 Annual Report 2015–16: Office of Environment and Heritage undertaking research, monitoring and reporting activities; and publishing and making our information easier to access. All of these activities are supported by staff providing human resource, information technology, administrative, asset and finance services. To all our staff undertaking these tasks, thank you. On behalf of the staff of OEH, I am proud to present this Annual Report for the 2015–16 year which sets out our wide-ranging responsibilities.

  • The Importance of Boundaries
    The importance of boundaries Colin Hughes Emeritus Professor of Politic Science, University of Queensland Research Paper 1 (November 2007) Democratic Audit of Australia Australian National University Canberra, ACT 0200 Australia http://democratic.audit.anu.edu.au The views expressed are the authors and do not necessarily reflect those of the Democratic Audit of Australia. If elections are to be thought fair, their outcomes should correspond as closely as possible to the inputs of voter preferences. A particular percentage of the votes counted for a party should produce close to the same percentage of the seats won by that party. Down that path lie the topics of partisan bias and proportional representation with multi-member electoral districts as the most common solution. But there is a second criterion of fairness which is that outcomes should correspond to the numbers of electors or people to be represented. That criterion is often called equality, and down that path lie the topics of malapportionment and enforced equality as a solution. The two criteria may not work in the same direction.1 In Australia the problem of equality has been debated mainly with respect to the dichotomy of town and country, ‘town’ usually meaning the State capital(s) which have been invariably by far the largest urban center in each State and ‘country’ the rest, though sometimes the larger provincial cities and towns get lumped in with their local metropolis. Should town voters have the same quantity of representation, measured by the number of electors in the electoral districts, as country voters? There has also been a sub-plot, which is what this paper is about, that concerns the existence of a small number of electoral districts spread over exceptionally large areas in which the population, and consequently the numbers of electors, is relatively thin on the ground and widely scattered.
