  • The Right Honourable the Lord Mayor City of Perth Level 11, Council House 27-29 St Georges Terrace PERTH 6000
    The Right Honourable the Lord Mayor City of Perth Level 11, Council House 27-29 St Georges Terrace PERTH 6000 Via email: [email protected] Dear Lord Mayor, RE: BAN ON MASS BALLOON RELEASES I am writing to you seeking information regarding the Council’s position on legislating to ban the release of helium balloons in public spaces. As you are likely aware, the Town of Cottesloe Council have recently passed a ban to this effect and City of Cockburn Council is soon to follow suit. Cemeteries, schools, parklands and beaches are popular spaces for mass balloon releases to occur. I have received correspondence from many concerned community members regarding the legality of these events. I have put on notice a motion to introduce the Environmental Protection Amendment (Banning Plastic Bags and Other Things) Bill 2017 into the Legislative Council of Western Australia. This would include a ban on balloon events such as these. It is my understanding that the Litter Act 1979, defines items as litter when they are deposited on land or waters. Therefore, under this law, the action of releasing balloons is not an offence. However, when the balloons land, littering subsequently occurs. Under the Litter Act 1979, this is a very difficult offence to substantiate and there is currently no other legislation in Western Australia, besides the Town of Cottesloe’s proposed ban, that addresses these acts of illegal dumping. The environmental impacts of released balloons are widespread and can be catastrophic. Not only is helium a finite resource, but a single balloon, even one made from natural latex to the highest industry standards, will take at least 5 years to break down.

  • Western Australia: a Small Area Perspective
    ......................................................................F E A T U R E A R T I C L E – Western Australia: A Small Area Perspective INTRODUCTION Western Australia occupies the western third of the Australian continent, comprising a land area of about 2,529,880 square kilometres. The administration of the urban and regional areas of this large and diverse State is divided amongst 142 local government authorities; nine development commissions; and a number of State and Commonwealth government departments and organisations. The demand for information relating to small geographic areas (such as Local Government Areas — LGAs) and broader regions (such as development commission regions) continues to increase. The Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) is committed to identifying and disseminating social, economic and environmental data for small areas to assist governments and communities seeking to enhance local and regional well–being in an environmentally sustainable way. The results of this on–going data gathering from ABS and non–ABS information sources are compiled and available in the ABS' Western Australian Regional Profiles, more details of which are provided on page 26, and through the Integrated Regional Data Base, details of which are available on the ABS website at www.abs.gov.au (select Products & Services/Key Products). This article presents selected social and economic data for LGAs from the 2002 Regional Profiles to provide a mosaic of social and economic life in urban and regional Western Australia. A significant proportion of the social data has been drawn from the 2001 Census of Population and Housing. The Census is the most comprehensive source of information about the characteristics of people in Australia and the dwellings in which they live.
