SLT are partnering with southern Tasmania’s councils to offer bulk-buy prices for household solar energy systems right through this month. More than 30,000 buildings across Tasmania are already harnessing the sun to generate their own electricity, reducing bills and the state’s reliance on imported polluting electricity in the process. “While solar prices continue to drop, so do government subsidies. Every day you delay is another you miss out on the benefits that solar panel systems provide. “These prices combined with the Tasmanian Government’s interest-free loan program makes this is an opportune time to join the solar revolution. The Eco Home Guide crew at SLT help Tasmanians navigate the sometimes complex options available to deliver more clean energy right across southern Tasmania. “It’s better for the planet, and it’s gives you better control of your energy and your household budget” Mr Houstein said.

QUESTIONS Launceston General Hospital - Commission of Inquiry into Child Abuse Claims Ms WHITE question to MINISTER for HEALTH, Ms COURTNEY [12.02 p.m.] Former LGH nurse, Jim Griffin, was charged with heinous child sex offences in October last year. You have been aware of this deeply disturbing case for nearly a year. Why was an independent inquiry only established last month? ANSWER Madam Speaker, I thank the member for her question. As I outlined yesterday to the parliament the safety of our children is the highest priority of this Government and, I would hope, the Tasmanian community. The Premier and I have announced an independent investigation into this matter. As I have outlined both to the parliament and also publicly the terms of reference for this investigation have been informed by expert advice. I am advised that the terms of reference are broad enough to give the investigator the scope she needs to be able to investigate these matters. I know that I, the secretary of the Department of Health, and the Premier are fully committed to ensuring this matter is thoroughly investigated and acting upon the findings of this investigation. With regard to the matter of when information was provided, in terms of advice to the LGH around the suspension of this individual's working with vulnerable people provision, on that day I am advised the staff member was directed to not attend work, and access to the hospital and its information systems were blocked.

Sent from Samsung tablet. Document Set ID: 1811667 Version: 1, Version Date: 16/11/2020 Re : Section 43A: Application for a Draft Amendment (PSA 2/2017) and Associated Development Application (SUB 36/2017), Channel Highway, Cygnet. We wish to voice the following concerns and comments that we have relating to the above submission requesting the re-zoning of part of Lot 1 Channel Highway, Cygnet (CT: 167891/1) and other property as set out in the submission and the issuing of planning permission to the owner/s of this land for the subdivision of the land into 61 parcels designed to be use for residential building construction, together with additional road lots etc. # It is the size of this proposed residential development and its potential impact on a rural community that presents an immediate concern. # Whilst it is recognized that development of towns and their rural surrounds is inevitable, and often desirable, the context in which they occur needs to be carefully considered. # The rural township of Cygnet has become an increasingly desirable location in which to live for many Tasmanians, interstate arrivals and to a lesser extent new arrivals into Australia from overseas. The suggested number of new arrivals wanting to move into Cygnet has been quantified by the SGS reports.
