  • Submission of Abc Alumni Limited to Senate Standing Committee on Environment and Communications
    1 SUBMISSION OF ABC ALUMNI LIMITED TO SENATE STANDING COMMITTEE ON ENVIRONMENT AND COMMUNICATIONS 13 November 2018 _______________________________________________ INTRODUCTORY STATEMENT ABC Alumni Limited represents a community of former staff and supporters of the Australian Broadcasting Corporation. We campaign for properly funded, high quality, independent, ethical, and free public media in Australia. We promote excellence across all platforms through education, mentoring, public forums and scholarships. The selection of the Australian Broadcasting Corporation’s Board and Managing Director must be free of political favouritism. Funding for the ABC must be guaranteed. We welcome this inquiry into ‘allegations of political interference in the Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC)’. It is vitally important that the Senate committee establishes the detail; the who, what, where and, most importantly, why of Managing Director Michelle Guthrie’s dismissal and Board Chair Justin Milne’s subsequent resignation. We are alarmed by the widely publicised allegations made by Ms Guthrie about the conduct of Mr Milne (and any possible complicity by Board directors; for example, was there a failure to act on the allegations when presented with them?). Ms Guthrie’s allegations if true, in whole or in part, clearly indicate that the current legislation and Chair/Board appointment processes fail to protect the ABC from overt and covert political interference. This makes the corporation vulnerable to punitive funding cuts that affect its ability to continue to provide the range and quality of fearless, independent broadcasting and online publishing for which it is known. These issues are fundamental to the important contribution the ABC makes to Australian society. In our view there is a need for amendments to the ABC Act and for changes to existing processes for the appointment of the Chair and Board directors.

  • [email protected] Subject: Ruby Princess
    Document 1 s22(1)(a)(ii) s47F s47F From: < abc.net.au> Sent: Wednesday, 12 August 2020 2:05 PM To: ABF Media; [email protected] Subject: Ruby Princess Hi team, I’m working on a story about the Ruby Princess. I understand that Virgin Australia and Qantas both made representations to Border Force (and other agencies) seeking the manifest for the Ruby Princess, so they could prevent passengers from getting on their planes. Both airlines were told the manifest could not be provided to them for privacy reasons (Qantas eventually got it from NSW Health on March 23). Qantas was also told by Border Force that it could not stop passengers travelling, which tallies with what Assistant Commissioner Kylie Rendina told health authorities on March 22 in an email found in annexure 21 here: https://www.rubyprincessinquiry.nsw.gov.au//assets/scirp/files/Exhibit‐58‐Annexures‐to‐the‐second‐statement‐of‐Dr‐ Jeremy‐McAnulty‐13‐26.pdf In light of representations made to Border Force by the airlines in the wake of the arrival of Ruby Princess, is Border Force in discussion with airlines and/or the airline industry about a protocol for sharing manifests upon request? Could I please get a response by 5pm. Any questions, call me. s47F s47F W abc.net.au/news Document 2 s22(1)(a)(ii) From: ABF Media Sent: Wednesday, 12 August 2020 2:32 PM To: Kylie RENDINA; Tim FITZGERALD; Danielle YANNOPOULOS s22(1)(a)(ii) Cc: ABF Media; Tharanie VITHANAGE; Jaycob MCMAHON; ABOC; s47F Subject: enquiry on Ruby Princess due at 5pm [SEC=OFFICIAL] OFFICIAL Hi all, Please see our latest enquiry below from s47F (ABC).
