  • Submission To
    Australian Broadcasting Corporation submission to Senate Environment, Communications, Information Technology and the Arts Committee Inquiry into the Broadcasting Services Amendment (Media Ownership) Bill 2006 and related bills September 2006 Australian Broadcasting Corporation submission to the Senate Environment, Communications, Information Technology and the Arts Committee inquiry into the Broadcasting Services Amendment (Media Ownership) Bill 2006 and related bills Introduction The ABC welcomes this opportunity to provide comments on the various media reform bills introduced into the Parliament on 14 September 2006 and the Government’s approach to the use of two unallocated channels of spectrum for new digital services, as announced by the Minister for Communications, Information Technology and the Arts on 12 September 2006. Many of the matters covered in the bills relate primarily to commercial media services and do not directly affect the ABC. As a result, the Corporation would like to confine its comments to a small number of issues, namely the relaxation of the genre restrictions on national broadcaster multichannels, the ABC’s contribution to media diversity in Australia and new digital services on the two unallocated channels. National Broadcaster Multichannels Removal of the Genre Restrictions The ABC welcomes the removal of the current “genre restrictions” applying to national broadcaster multichannel services under clause 5A of Schedule 4 of the Broadcasting Services Act 1992 (“BSA”) that will be brought about by Schedule 1 of the Broadcasting Legislation Amendment (Digital Television) Bill 2006 (“Digital Television Bill”). This will allow the Corporation to offer Australians greater access to the full range of publicly-funded programs, including making use of archival material as rights and funds permit.

  • EECERA Research Award Application 2017 Practitioner Research
    EECERA Research Award Application 2017 Practitioner Research – Group Linda Newman, Nicole Leggett, Melissa Duffy-Fagan, Kate Higginbottom, Kylie Kirrage & Catherine Highton. Application Abstract Research Connections: Practitioner Research Engagement Network for Early Childhood Educators was a highly successful project. Participants improved the quality of their practice through engaging in long-term professional learning to plan and implement action research projects. The research visibility has promoted the status of early childhood practitioners nationally and internationally. Two Australian academics and four early childhood teams took part. They propose, as an outcome, that their evidence-based practitioner research model can inform governments & non-governmental organisations. They advocate their model of professional learning for quality improvement in early childhood services to build knowledge and professional learning, and create sustainable change. The research demonstrated early childhood teacher agency, advocacy and self-determination by showing how issues deemed important for children’s rights, families, communities and educators were identified, researched and reported. The research will be presented in an EECERA symposium in 2017 that shows how practitioner research and socioculturally informed collaboration approaches not only empower and engage teachers in research, but can meet professional learning accountability requirements. This application, and the symposium, will present the project network’s processes and outcomes,

Image: Ben King / Porchlight Films Letter to the Minister 9 September 2020 The Hon Paul Fletcher MP Minister for Communications, Cyber Safety and the Arts Parliament House Canberra ACT 2600 Dear Minister The Board of the Australian Broadcasting Corporation is pleased to present its Annual Report for the year ended 30 June 2020. The report was prepared for section 46 of the Public Governance, Performance and Accountability Act 2013, in accordance with the requirements of that Act and the Australian Broadcasting Corporation Act 1983. It was approved by the Board on 9 September 2020 and provides a streamlined, yet full, overview of the ABC’s performance and delivery in line with its Charter remit. The ABC walked beside Australians through the stress, fear and change of late 2019 and early 2020, a time full of uncertainty. It provided constant support for audiences with its wide-ranging and comprehensive news coverage, and help and distraction through quality discussion, entertainment, music, children’s content and specialist services. We adapted to our new operating circumstances expediently, while facing our internal challenges head on. There can be no better example of the ABC’s dedication to Australian stories, culture and experience than its activities throughout 2019-20. I trust you will find the same reflected within this report. Sincerely,
