    SENATOR THE HON SIMON BIRMINGHAM Minister for Trade, Tourism and Investment Senator for South Australia SENATOR THE HON RICHARD COLBECK Minister for Youth and Sport Senator for Tasmania MEDIA RELEASE 2 June 2019 Deepening cultural and commercial ties between Australia and China Minister for Youth and Sport Richard Colbeck will join Australian business and sports luminaries at the third annual AFL match in Shanghai today, celebrating the deepening cultural and commercial relationship between Australia and China. The Minister’s visit rounds off the inaugural ‘Festival of Australia’, a two-week business promotion program that showcased Australian goods and services in 10 Chinese cities, reaching up to 30 million Chinese consumers. “I’m thrilled to be joining 11,000 fans in the Jiangwan stadium today for the match between Port Adelaide and St Kilda. Sport is a great unifier, and it’s thrilling to see Chinese fans take Australia’s beloved AFL to their hearts in this way,” Minister Colbeck said. “In just three years, AFL has built a following in China, and strengthened our two countries’ longstanding cultural, social and business ties.” More than 250 Australian business representatives have been in China over the past two weeks for Festival of Australia events in Tianjin, Beijing, Jinan, Hangzhou, Nanjing, Shanghai, Chengdu, Kunming, Shenzhen, Guangzhou and Hong Kong. Minister for Trade, Tourism and Investment Simon Birmingham said the Morrison Government had worked hand-in-hand with industry to ensure the Festival delivered maximum impact for Australian brands in China. “Australian premium products and services have been front and centre in China over the past two weeks, and this extra exposure will help put Aussie products on the radar of Chinese buyers and investors,” Minister Birmingham said.

Downloaded from http://hdl.handle.net/10072/367746 Griffith Research Online https://research-repository.griffith.edu.au Ministerial Staff under the Howard Government: Problem, Solution or Black Hole? Anne-Maree Tiernan BA (Australian National University) BComm (Hons) (Griffith University) Department of Politics and Public Policy, Griffith University Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy November 2004 Abstract This thesis traces the development of the ministerial staffing system in Australian Commonwealth government from 1972 to the present. It explores four aspects of its contemporary operations that are potentially problematic. These are: the accountability of ministerial staff, their conduct and behaviour, the adequacy of current arrangements for managing and controlling the staff, and their fit within a Westminster-style political system. In the thirty years since its formal introduction by the Whitlam government, the ministerial staffing system has evolved to become a powerful new political institution within the Australian core executive. Its growing importance is reflected in the significant growth in ministerial staff numbers, in their increasing seniority and status, and in the progressive expansion of their role and influence. There is now broad acceptance that ministerial staff play necessary and legitimate roles, assisting overloaded ministers to cope with the unrelenting demands of their jobs. However, recent controversies involving ministerial staff indicate that concerns persist about their accountability, about their role and conduct, and about their impact on the system of advice and support to ministers and prime ministers.

    Article No. 6481 Available on www.roymorgan.com Roy Morgan Federal Electorate Profiles Measuring Public Opinion for over 70 Years Monday, 28 September 2015 New Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull gives immediate Consumer Confidence boost across Australia and seeks to conclude China-Australia Free Trade Agreement New Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull gave an immediate boost to Consumer Confidence across a range of key demographics this week. Overall ANZ-Roy Morgan Australian Consumer Confidence jumped by a one-week record 9.2pts – from 105.3 (September 12/13, 2015) to 114.5 (September 19/20, 2015) following Turnbull’s swearing in as Australia’s 29th Prime Minister on Tuesday September 15, 2015. This strong increase was repeated across the board. The increase to Consumer Confidence was broad-based with Consumer Confidence increasing strongly for both genders, across all age groups and all States & Capital Cities. In particular Consumer Confidence in Australia’s two largest commercial centres increased more strongly than other cities: Sydney – 107.6 to 117.4 (up 9.8pts) and Melbourne – 104.4 to 119.2 (up 14.8pts). E E This strong endorsement of the new Prime Minister from Australia’s consumers gives Turnbull a clear ‘mandate’ to pursue reforms to the Australian economy to ensure strong future growth and to make the structural adjustments necessary to make the Australian economy more competitive as it deals with the end of the commodities boom and the closure of legacy manufacturing industries – the manufacturing component of the Australian car industry is due to close entirely by the end of next year.

  • You Can Download the NSW Caring Fairly Toolkit Here!
    A TOOLKIT: How carers in NSW can advocate for change www.caringfairly.org.au Caring Fairly is represented in NSW by: www.facebook.com/caringfairlycampaign @caringfairly @caringfairly WHO WE ARE Caring Fairly is a national campaign led by unpaid carers and specialist organisations that support and advocate for their rights. Launched in August 2018 and coordinated by Mind Australia, Caring Fairly is led by a coalition of over 25 carer support organisations, NGOs, peak bodies, and carers themselves. In NSW, Caring Fairly is represented by Mental Health Carers NSW, Carers NSW and Flourish Australia. We need your support, and invite you to join the Caring Fairly coalition. Caring Fairly wants: • A fairer deal for Australia’s unpaid carers • Better economic outcomes for people who devote their time to supporting and caring for their loved ones • Government policies that help unpaid carers balance paid work and care, wherever possible • Politicians to understand what’s at stake for unpaid carers going into the 2019 federal election To achieve this, we need your help. WHY WE ARE TAKING ACTION Unpaid carers are often hidden from view in Australian politics. There are almost 2.7 million unpaid carers nationally. Over 850,000 people in Australia are the primary carer to a loved one with disability. Many carers, understandly, don’t identify as a ‘carer’. Caring Fairly wants visibility for Australia’s unpaid carers. We are helping to build a new social movement in Australia to achieve this. Unpaid carers prop up Australian society. Like all Australians, unpaid carers have a right to a fair and decent quality of life.

Wrapping up weekend talks with trade ministers from the G20 meeting of the world’s biggest economies, Mr. Robb said the competition had been drawn to Australia by the prospect of infrastructure investment being reinvigorated by asset sales to fund new developments. “It is a huge opportunity to do it and have some of the best construction companies in the world bringing state-of-the-art expertise and innovation to all of this rollout of infrastructure,’’ Mr. Robb told The Australian. “What was seen as a duopoly in Australia with major projects has now become highly competitive in the space of five years,’’ Mr. Robb said.

Infrastructure investment is one of the major themes for the G20 under Australia’s presidency this year, in line with domestic efforts to encourage states to sell assets and recycle the money back into new projects.
