SUBJECT: CONSULTATION FINDINGS REGARDING VIABILITY OF FORTITUDE VALLEY STATE SCHOOL Summary of key objectives • A report detailing the findings of the community consultation regarding the proposed closure of Fortitude Valley State School (SS) has been compiled by independent consultants, JTA Australia, for the Minister's consideration (Attachment 1). • The Department has reviewed the consultant's report regarding the viability of Fortitude Valley SS, prepared a summary of the findings and made a recommendation regarding the future of the school for the Minister's consideration (Attachment 2). • The Minister is required to make a determination regarding the proposed closure of Fortitude Valley SS. Key issues 1. In May 2013 the Minister approved eight state schools to proceed to community consultation regarding proposed closure, as a result of the Department's 2013 School Viability Assessment process. 2. These schools were Charlton State School, Everton Park State High School, Fortitude Valley State School, Nyanda State High School, Old Yarranlea State School, Stuart State School, Toowoomba South State School and Wyreema State School. 3. As is required under the Education (General Provisions) Act 2006 (the Act). the Minister approved the gazettal of these proposed school closures. The public notice was published in the Government Gazette on 10 May 2013. 4. Community consultation is also a requirement under the Act. 5. The Department engaged an independent consultant, JTA Australia, to lead and manage the consultation process in each school community. 6. The consultation period ran from 3 May 2013 until 26 July 2013, with a total of four consultation meetings held in the Fortitude Valley SS community with key stakeholders and interest groups. 7. Community members were also invited to submit written submissions to a departmental email address ([email protected]), or to the consultant's designated email address ([email protected]. au) . 8. A total of.· ~94Written submissions were received as part of the consultation process for Fortitude \/alley SS. 9. The majority of written submissions expressed opposition to the proposed closure of Fortitude Valley SS.

JTA Australia submitted a consultation report regarding Fortitude Valley SS to the Department for the Minister's consideration on 2 August 2013. 11. As per the attached Summary of Consultation Findings (Attachment 2), the key issues identified during consultation were: • Future residential development and potential forecast enrolment growth; • The location of the site and its outside school hours care (OSHC) facility had particular appeal to families in transit to and from work; • Difficulties in accessing transport to alternative schools; • Alternative options to school closure including a partial land sale and partnerships with developers. 12. The Department considers that these issues can be addressed, as outlined below and in Attachment 2: • Neighbouring schools have capacity (or the ability to expand) to accommodate students from the Fortitude Valley SS catchment; • The school and its OSHC facility currently cater for a high number of families living out of catchment- e.g. 68% of students enrolled in the school do not live within the catchment. There are OSHC options at alternative state schools; • The Department of Transport and Main Roads (DTMR) operates buses which connect the Fortitude Valley SS catchment with New Farm SS and Brisbane Central SS , along with other alternative state schools; • While the alternative options are valid, they do not remedy the viability issues that the school has been experiencing over a long period. Communications 13. If a decision is made to close Fortitude Valley SS a range of resources, including Guidance Officers, will be made available to support students, parents and staff. 14. A communications plan has been developed and communications materials are being prepared to support an announcement regarding the decision on the proposed school closure. Financial implications 15. Should the Minister approve Fortitude Valley SS for closure, all current students at the time of the announcement (excluding students completing Year 7) would be eligible for a one-off uniform allowance of $350 for their new school. 16. The Department would support current students and families, if required, by subsidising the difference in Student Resource Hire Scheme fees for a one-year period, in cases where the destination school's fees are higher than their current school. 17. The Assistant Director-General Finance and Chief Finance Officer will develop an appropriate internal process to facilitate: • the distribution/allocation of funds for uniforms to eligible parents and families by the end of October; and • if the Student Resource Hire Scheme is higher at the destination school, the difference will be discounted at the time when parents/guardians join the scheme at the new school (for the initial year only). DETE RTI Application 340/5/3062 - File A - Document 2 of 13 P~3of5 I Department File.Ref: --.--..c.. 13/265035 J Transport Assistance 18. Travel af/owances would also be available to eligible students (where applicable) through the Department of Transport and Main Roads' School Transport Assistance Scheme (STAS). 19. Under this scheme, state primary students who live more than 3.2km from their nearest state school by shortest trafficable route are eligible for a distance-based transport subsidy. Financially disadvantaged students (who live within these distances) may also be eligible for further STAS allowances. 20. If the distance to the nearest school is less than 3.2km, students will not be eligible for the transport subsidy. 21. Also. it should be noted that students, who choose a destination school which is not within their revised catchment area, may not be eligible for the STAS allowance as this subsidy is provided for students to access their closest state school 22. Regions, affected schools and destination schools will be provided with revised catchment maps to assist students and families to identify the appropriate school for each student. Student Support & Transition 23. Education Queensland has developed a template for Individual Student Transition Plans, for schools approved for closure. 24. Students and parents will be supported through the use of Individual Student Transition Plans to identify which school will best meet and support the student's educational needs. 25. It is anticipated that in most cases, the student will be able to enrol in their neighbouring school of choice. However, due to individual student schooling history, there may be a small number of students who will not be able to be accommodated at the school of their choice. In these cases, school staff will work with the student/family to negotiate an alternative school. Staff Support & Transition 26. The Assistant Director-General Human Resources is ensuring necessary communications and procedures are in place to assist school principals, teachers and other school staff through the provision of additional HR support in any school approved for closure, including additional guidance officer hours and Teacher Relief Scheme (TRS) 27. Regional Human Resource staff will work individually with all staff members through relocation/transfer and other staffing issues. The Employee Assistance Service (EAS) will also be available to staff. Other 28. Should the Minister determine that Fortitude Valley SS will close, it is recommended the Minister write letters to key stakeholders to formally advise them of his decision, including the Principal , P&C Association President, State MP and local Councillor/Mayor. Draft template letters have been prepared for this purpose (Attachment 3) . 29. If the Minister approves the closure of Fortitude Valley SS, there will be a need to monitor student relocation enrolment choices as the neighbouring primary schools have limited building platforms and could require redevelopment and the provision of hire and/or relocatable facilities. The funding requirement is unknown at this time. 30. If required, these relocatable or hire buildings wou ld be able to be delivered in time for the start of Term 1, 2014. DETE RTI Application 340/5/3062 - File A - Document 3 of 13 31. The Department has met the requirements of Chapter 2, Part 3 of the Education (General Provisions) Act 2006 to publish a notice about this proposed school closure in the Government Gazette and carry out adequate consultation, on behalf of the Minister, with the school community. Furthermore, should the school be approved for closure, it will occur more than six months from the publication of the proposed closure in the Government Gazette. 32. The Department has recently reviewed and revised its School Closure Checklist, a comprehensive document that outlines the various operational action items, roles and responsibilities associated with the closure of state schools. Should the Minister approve this school for closure, the School Closure Checklist will be distributed to relevant officers for completion. Background 33. On 3 May 2013, the Minister for Education, Training and Employment, announced that consultation would occur regard ing the proposed closure of eight state schools, including Fortitude Valley SS. 34 . The schools identified were proposed for closure in line with the criteria contained in the Department's School Viability Assessment procedure. in particular the enrolment and accessibility criteria. 35. Fortitude Valley SS has experienced low and declining enrolments for at least the past five years and relatively low enrolment numbers are anticipated in the medium to long term. 36 .

The Parliamentary Speaker and tradition The tradition of Speakership in the Westminster parliamentary system is a long and enduring one, commencing with the appointment of the first British Speaker, Sir Thomas Hungerford, who was appointed in 1377. From these earliest times, the Speaker has been the mouthpiece or representative of the House, speaking on behalf of the House in communicating its deliberations and decisions, to the monarchy, the Executive and also others. The Speaker represents, in a very real sense, the right of freedom of speech in the Parliament, which was hard won from a monarchical Executive centuries ago. The Parliament must constantly be prepared to maintain its right of…freedom of speech, without fear or favour.1 Amongst the numerous powers, responsibilities and functions vested in Speakers via the constitution, standing orders and conventions, and in addition to being the spokesperson of the House, the main functions of the Speaker are to preside over the debates of the

  • Ap2 Final 16.2.17
    PALASZCZUK’S SECOND YEAR AN OVERVIEW OF 2016 ANN SCOTT HOWARD GUILLE ROGER SCOTT with cartoons by SEAN LEAHY Foreword This publication1 is the fifth in a series of Queensland political chronicles published by the TJRyan Foundation since 2012. The first two focussed on Parliament.2 They were written after the Liberal National Party had won a landslide victory and the Australian Labor Party was left with a tiny minority, led by Annastacia Palaszczuk. The third, Queensland 2014: Political Battleground,3 published in January 2015, was completed shortly before the LNP lost office in January 2015. In it we used military metaphors and the language which typified the final year of the Newman Government. The fourth, Palaszczuk’s First Year: a Political Juggling Act,4 covered the first year of the ALP minority government. The book had a cartoon by Sean Leahy on its cover which used circus metaphors to portray 2015 as a year of political balancing acts. It focussed on a single year, starting with the accession to power of the Palaszczuk Government in mid-February 2015. Given the parochial focus of our books we draw on a limited range of sources. The TJRyan Foundation website provides a repository for online sources including our own Research Reports on a range of Queensland policy areas, and papers catalogued by policy topic, as well as Queensland political history.5 A number of these reports give the historical background to the current study, particularly the anthology of contributions The Newman Years: Rise, Decline and Fall.6 Electronic links have been provided to open online sources, notably the ABC News, Brisbane Times, The Guardian, and The Conversation.

    1 - Background 1.1 Overview The Queensland Independent Remuneration Tribunal (the Tribunal) is an independent statutory authority established by the Queensland Independent Remuneration Tribunal Act 2013 (the Act) to determine remuneration in connection with Members of the Queensland Parliament (MPs) and former MPs. The definition of ‘remuneration’ includes the additional salary and associated allowances payable to an MP for performing roles as an office holder in addition to that of an MP in the Queensland Legislative Assembly. Section 42 of the Act provides a list of offices for which MPs may be entitled to be paid a salary in addition to the base salary of a backbench MP (an additional salary). The Act also provides that if another office is approved by resolution of the Legislative Assembly then that office may attract an additional salary. Note that only one salary (being the highest salary) is payable in the case of an MP holding multiple offices. 1.2 Previous consideration of additional salary Additional salaries provided to office holders were considered by the Tribunal in Determination 3/2014 after a detailed examination of the nature of each of the roles.1 The Determination set the additional salary payable to each office holder relative to the additional salary payable to the highest office being the Office of the Premier. These relativities between additional salaries are outlined in the following table: Relativity Band Office between offices % 1 Premier 100.0 2 Deputy Premier 80.0 Minister 3 70.0 Leader of the Opposition 1 Queensland Independent Remuneration Tribunal, Building a new remuneration structure for Members of the Queensland Parliament – Part two, Determination 3/2014 (27 March 2014), 69-70 <http://www.remunerationtribunal.qld.gov.au/assets/determination-03-14.pdf>.

  • Queensland January to June, 2009
    Political Chronicles 603 Queensland January to June, 2009 PAUL D. WILLIAMS School of Humanities, Griffith University Overview The first half of 2009 saw some of the most remarkable developments in recent Queensland political history. A state election that recorded a number of firsts — including the unexpectedly easy return of the first woman premier in Australia — coupled with a declining economy, a tough state budget, the proposed sale of 604 Political Chronicles government-owned corporations, and the rapid surge in support for a troubled opposition despite its convincing defeat just weeks before. If nothing else, this period underscored the vagaries of state politics. January The Liberal-National Party (LNP) opposition, emboldened by its successful amalgamation in mid 2008, came out swinging at year's beginning. Opposition leader Lawrence Springborg kicked off his unofficial election campaign in early January with a curious policy launch at an Ipswich motor cycle store. But conservative forces were soon distracted when Nationals Senator Barnaby Joyce sounded out pre-selection possibilities for the lower house seat of Dawson and, later, a Northern New South Wales district. Joyce soon abandoned the plan for want of support. Premier Anna Bligh was forced into her own backflip when she scuttled a move to allow drivers to claim the 8.3 cent per litre petrol subsidy directly from service stations. The Premier soon backflipped again, this time over plans to axe unprofitable Queensland Rail rural freight lines. Meanwhile, the Queensland economy appeared to stall, with 1,300 jobs lost in just two months (Courier Mail, 15 January 2009). The year's first community cabinet, in Townsville, thus doubled as a jobs summit.

  • 09 / 2020 Hon Deb Frecklington MP Leader of the Opposition Reception
    8/ 09 / 2020 Hon Deb Frecklington MP Leader of the Opposition [email protected] Dear Mrs Frecklington Queensland infrastructure delivery – 2020 to 2024 It is encouraging to see the commitment that your party has given to infrastructure delivery to help Queensland emerge from the COVID‐19 induced recession that we are currently experiencing. Good infrastructure design, delivery and operation will deliver great outcomes for Queensland’s growth into the future. However, Australia’s construction industry is not in good health. It has not substantially improved its productivity in decades and can waste up to 23 per cent of its efforts 1 2. Construction has largely continued to rely on traditional methods for many projects3. Taking Queensland Construction turnover for FY20, ($38.9B4) there exists an opportunity to save up to $9.1B by utilising integrated lean digital delivery methods for project delivery or to put that in perspective, 1 cross river rail and 2 new hospitals every year. It is clear, that there are better ways of working which deliver better project outcomes particularly for the infrastructure that Queensland needs. Evidence suggests, that through the adoption of lean construction practices and digital engineering, considerable cost and time savings5 can be achieved when compared against traditional delivery methodologies, allowing more to be built for less in a shorter time and with higher quality and safety. For this to happen, the Queensland Government needs to adopt more collaborative procurement / delivery frameworks that align the interests of all stakeholders to leverage the economic and social outcomes that come from infrastructure investment.
