  • Appendix 3G Further Perspectives on the Financial Benefits of Local Government Amalgamations
    3G-1 Appendix 3G Further Perspectives on the Financial Benefits of Local Government Amalgamations Appendix 3G has five sections which support the section in Chapter 3 on estimates of the financial benefits of local government amalgamations. The first section further examines the KPMG estimates that savings of up to $845 million per annum could be achieved in NSW through local government amalgamations. This first section also includes a critique of the KPMG estimates by Judith McNeill. The second section presents a Darwinian survival perspective to the debate on the preferred sizes of local governments. The third section briefly discusses the self-limiting effect whereby the strength of the argument in favour of local government amalgamations must in some senses diminish with each successfully achieved amalgamation. The fourth section, in Table 3G-3, provides a compilation of extracts from 113 Australian and international literature sources which provide valuable insights on the local government amalgamation debate generally and which appear to provide important lessons for this current study. KPMG's Financial Benefit Estimates Consultants KPMG explored four local government amalgamation options, and establishes estimates of cost savings possible through each of these options, in a 1998 report prepared for the Property Council of NSW. Table 3G-1 below summarises the key findings in this report, where savings estimates are based on 1995-96 data.

The Livingstone Shire Local Disaster Management Plan (LDMP) has been prepared to ensure there is a consistant approach to Diaster Management in the Livingstone Shire. This plan is an important tool for managing potential disasters and is a demonstrated commitment towards enhancing the safety of the Livingstone Shire community.

This plan has been developed to be consistant with the Disaster Management Standards and Guidelines and importantly to intergrate into the Queensland Disaster Management Arrangements (QDMA). The primary focus is to help reduce the potential adverse effect of an event by conducting activities before, during or after to help reduce loss of human life, illness or injury to humans, property loss or damage, or damage to the environment.

  • Jason Costigan
    Speech by Jason Costigan MEMBER FOR WHITSUNDAY Hansard Wednesday, 30 May 2012 MAIDEN SPEECH Mr COSTIGAN (Whitsunday—LNP) (4.08 pm): It gives me tremendous pleasure to rise as the first LNP member for Whitsunday, fulfilling my dream of representing a region that is very dear to my heart. First, though, I take this opportunity to congratulate the Speaker of the House on her historic appointment; the Premier, the Hon. Campbell Newman MP, on his historic election; and all members on their success in being part of the 54th Parliament. I look around the House and think back to 1865, when the foundation stone was laid—the same year that my great-great-grandfather came to Mackay as a pioneering police officer, having previously served as an officer of the Royal Irish Constabulary before arriving in Queensland. Pat Costigan served in Mackay and nearby Walkerston and by 1873 took up his posting as the first officer in charge at Nebo. Five generations later, there is still plenty of Nebo in my DNA. In fact, the Costigans have been in Queensland before there even was a Queensland, with William Costigan being part of that famous but ill-fated expedition to the north led by Edmund Kennedy way back in 1848, landing on the shores of Rockingham Bay north of present-day Cardwell. I come from humble stock in what used to be called the Brigalow Belt, well before the term ‘Bowen Basin’ became part of Queensland’s vernacular, with the emergence of the juggernaut that is now the coalmining industry in the Mackay-Whitsunday hinterland.

I would like to start this public hearing for the Productivity Commission’s inquiry into the impacts of native vegetation and biodiversity controls. My name is Neil Byron. I’m the presiding commissioner for this inquiry, and my colleague is Prof Warren Musgrave who is also a commissioner. You’re probably here because you’re aware of the terms of reference, so I won’t attempt to summarise all that. But I would like to say that we have spoken to organisations, land-holders, environmental groups, state and Commonwealth agencies, all sorts of people with an interest in the issues. We’ve received over a hundred submissions from all around Australia so far. We held formal public hearings like this in Brisbane last Monday. Next week we’re in Canberra, Perth and Adelaide and it sort of goes on after that. The purpose of these inquiries is to provide an opportunity for interested parties to formally put on the record their views and their evidence on the matters under examination. We’re working towards producing a draft report for public comment that will go out in probably the beginning of December.
