(Quorum formed.) MADAM SPEAKER (Ms J Burch) took the chair, made a formal recognition that the Assembly was meeting on the lands of the traditional custodians, and asked members to stand in silence and pray or reflect on their responsibilities to the people of the Australian Capital Territory. Petitions The following petitions were lodged for presentation: Restoration of Belconnen bus services—petition 12-19 By Mrs Kikkert, from 591 residents respectively: To the Speaker and Members of the Legislative Assembly for the Australian Capital Territory This petition of certain residents of the Australian Capital Territory draws to the attention of the Assembly that bus network changes substantially inconvenience Belconnen residents by: • removing the 712, 714, 717, 743 and 744 Xpresso buses; • eliminating school buses taking Belconnen students to and from Canberra Grammar School, Canberra Girls’ Grammar School, St Clare’s College, St Edmund’s College and Daramalan College; and • reducing the frequency of the 40 bus in the Aranda area during both morning and afternoon peak hours despite requests for increased service. For many students, workers and families, this means significantly more time spent commuting from 29 April 2019. Your petitioners, therefore, request the Assembly to call upon the ACT Government to restore these bus services or provide an equivalent or better alternative. Restoration of Belconnen bus services—petition 9-19 By Mrs Kikkert, from 589 residents respectively: To the Speaker and Members of the Legislative Assembly for the Australian Capital Territory The following residents of the ACT draw to the attention of the Assembly that bus network changes substantially inconvenience Belconnen residents by: − removing the 712, 714, 717 and 744 Xpresso buses; 1659 15 May 2019 Legislative Assembly for the ACT − eliminating school buses taking Belconnen students to and from Canberra Grammar School, Lyneham high school, Brindabella College, Canberra Girls’ Grammar School, St Clare’s College, St Edmund’s College and Daramalan College; and − reducing the frequency of the 40 bus in the Aranda area during both morning and afternoon peak hours despite requests for increased service. For many students, workers and families, this means significantly more time spent commuting from 29 April 2019. Example - 712 takes 40 minutes to Northbourne and instead it will take bus# 43 and 9 approximately 1 hour and 10 minutes. Your petitioners, therefore, request the Assembly to call upon the ACT Government to restore these bus services or provide an equivalent or better alternative. The Clerk having announced that the terms of the petitions would be recorded in Hansard and a copy referred to the appropriate minister for response pursuant to standing order 100, the petition was received. Pursuant to standing order 99A, the petition, having more than 500 signatories, was referred to the Standing Committee on Environment and Transport and City Services. Ministerial response The following response to a petition has been lodged: Canberra sexual health centre—petition 2-19 By Ms Fitzharris, Minister for Health and Wellbeing, dated 14 May 2019, in response to a petition lodged by Ms J Burch on 12 February 2019 concerning support for the Canberra Sexual Health Centre. The response read as follows: Dear Mr Duncan Thank you for your letter of 12 February 2019, regarding petition 2-19 lodged by Ms Joy Burch MLA, about ACT Health to provide increased support for resource and infrastructure improvements at Canberra Sexual Health Centre. In response to the petition, I offer the following information. The Canberra Sexual Health Service has an essential role in supporting the health of Canberrans and focuses on safe sex promotion, the testing and treatment of sexually transmitted diseases and the long-term management of HIV infection among other important functions. The ACT Government is currently planning for the relocation and enhancement of infrastructure supporting the Canberra Sexual Health Centre, as part of the Surgical Procedures, Interventional Radiology and Emergency (SPIRE) Centre Project. The location of the SPIRE Centre will displace the existing Canberra 1660 Legislative Assembly for the ACT 15 May 2019 Sexual Health Centre at Canberra Hospital, requiring an investment in new infrastructure. This investment will see the centre relocated and expanded to meet contemporary health design and clinical safety requirements, as well as to meet changing and increasing demands for the service. Additionally, Canberra Health Services is focused on continued improvement and innovation in the delivery of their clinical services. To this end, work is underway improve the way in which Canberra Sexual Health Centre provides out-reach services, including the use of our community health centres and Walk- in Centres (WiCs) to deliver services closer to home and provide consumer advice and education. Most recently, this has included the promotion of access to chlamydia screening for young people at WiCs. In addition to these new approaches, the Canberra Sexual Health Centre has a significant program of out-reach and in-reach services delivered in partnership with community organisations and other ACT Government partners, including the Aids Action Council, Karralika Programs Inc, Sexual Health and Family Planning ACT, Hepatitis ACT, University of Canberra Medical Centre, the Education Directorate, the Canberra Alliance for Harm Minimisation and the Sex Workers Outreach Project. Finally, I would like to acknowledge the ongoing and hard work of clinicians and staff from the Canberra Sexual Health Centre and extend my thanks to petitioners for bringing this important matter to my attention. Thank you for raising this matter. I trust this information is of assistance. Motion to take note of petitions and response MADAM SPEAKER: Pursuant to standing order 98A, I propose the question: That the petitions and response so lodged be noted. MRS KIKKERT (Ginninderra) (10.03): I have presented petitions signed by 1,180 Canberra residents who want this Assembly to understand how frustrated they are with recent changes to the bus network in the Belconnen

  • ACT Democrats
    AUSTRALIAN DEMOCRATS (ACT DIVISION) SUBMISSION TO THE ACT LEGISLATIVE ASSEMBLY ELECTORAL BOUNDARIES REDISTRIBUTION 2003 Introduction In March 2000, The ACT Democrats submitted a proposed redistribution of electoral boundaries to the ACT Electoral Commission (“the Commission”), which was not then taken up by the Redistribution Committee (“the Committee”). However, the ACT Democrats still believe our suggestion provided a more sensible layout of electorates for the ACT Legislative Assembly elections than exists at present. This submission presents a modified version of our previous proposal, reflecting the changes in population distribution since then, and reviews a range of social, economic and environmental data to support our conclusions. The ACT Democrats continue to support the principle that electoral boundaries should place electors into groups that best reflect their common interests, demographics and spatial location. In particular, the ACT Democrats continue to oppose the division of Gungahlin between two electorates, believing that it is unwise to divide a small suburban cluster with similar electoral interests, and particularly one that is in the early stages of community development and representation. Secondly, the ACT Democrats continue to believe that the inclusion of Gungahlin in the central electorate of Molonglo does not represent any meaningful community of interest. This creates an electorate with little spatial integration and few social, economic or developmental commonalities. This submission begins with a short discussion of demographic change in Canberra, but will focus principally on the northern electoral boundary dividing Ginninderra and Molonglo. It will also discuss the Southern boundary between Brindabella and Molonglo, as well as touch upon some issues surrounding the Electoral Act 1992 (“the Act”).

Box 80 BELCONNEN A.C.T. 2616 Dear M/s Eibisch Re: Queensland Lawyers Maintain Their Monopoly I refer to the Submission sent to you in April 2003 on behalf of the Institute and would like to draw your attention to the recent decision by the Administrative Appeals Tribunal (AAT) dated 10th September, 2003 (No.2002/1539) which refused an Application by Mr. Dale Turner (a Licensed Conveyancer operating in N.S.W. and the immediate Past President of the Australian Institute of Conveyancers) to be granted a practising certificate in Queensland as a "Solicitor with conditions". The conditions would be to restrict him to doing conveyancing only. As you may be aware, Mr. Turner initiated the case under the principles of Mutual Recognition by applying to become a Solicitor in Queensland restricted to conveyancing, arguing that the scope of work carried out by a Licensed Conveyancer in N.S.W. was equal to the work done by a Solicitor in Queensland who handled Conveyancing. Not surprisingly, his application was refused by the Queensland Supreme Court. He then appealed to the AAT, again to be refused and denied entry to operate in Queensland. In fact, Mr. Turner does not necessarily wish to become a Solicitor per se but wishes to carry on in Queensland the same business he is qualified to carry on in N.S.W.

The aesthetic quality of the house is remarkable, due to the elegant splayed angles of the white walls and jewel- like corner windows, under a sheltering flat roof with long horizontal timber fascias. The house is of architectural significance as a good example of the Late Twentieth-Century Organic style (1960-), as interpreted by Taglietti, which displays key indicators of the style – free asymmetrical massing, complex angular geometry complementing nature and clearly expressed timber structure. The splayed corner windows and the roof design, with rainwater falling to a central gutter and spilling out as a garden feature, were quite innovative. The high aesthetic quality of the 1995 addition matches that of the 1965 house. It has vertical massing which contrasts with the horizontal proportions of the earlier house, and the two buildings combine well visually. The 1995 addition is significant as a compact example of a more mature Taglietti design, in which the exterior massing reflects the internal arrangement of space to flow vertically as well as horizontally.

  • Victorian and ACT Electoral Boundary Redistribution
    Barton Deakin Brief: Victorian and ACT Electoral Boundary Redistribution 9 April 2018 Last week, the Australian Electoral Commission (‘AEC’) announced substantial redistributions for the Electorate Divisions in Victoria and the ACT. The redistribution creates a third Federal seat in the ACT and an additional seat in Victoria. These new seats are accompanied by substantial boundary changes in Victoria and the ACT. ABC electoral analyst Antony Green has predicted that the redistribution would notionally give the Australian Labor Party an additional three seats in the next election – the Divisions of Dunkley, Fraser, and Bean – while the seat of Corangamite would become one of the most marginal seats in the country. The proposed changes will now be subject to a consultation period where objections to the changes may be submitted to the AEC. The objection period closes at 6pm May 4 in both the ACT and Victoria. A proposed redistribution for South Australia will be announced on April 13. This Barton Deakin Brief will summarize the key electoral boundary changes in the ACT and Victoria. New Seats The Redistribution Committee has proposed that four of Victoria’s electoral divisions be renamed. Additionally, two new seats are to be created in Victoria and the ACT New Seats Proposed for Victoria and ACT DIVISION OF BEAN (ACT) New seat encompassing much of the former Division of Canberra. The seat will be named after World War I war correspondent Charles Edwin Woodrow Green (1879-1968) DIVISION OF FRASER (VIC) New seat named after former Liberal Party Prime Minister John Malcolm Fraser AC CH GCL (1930-2015), to be located in Melbourne’s western suburbs.
