    Defence Annual Report 2004-2005

    ANNUAL REPORT 2004-05 DEFENDING AUSTRALIA AND ITS NATIONAL INTERESTS Guide to the Report The format and content of this annual report reflects the requirements developed by the Department of the Prime Minister and Cabinet and approved by the Joint Committee of Public Accounts and Audit in June 2005 under subsections 63(2) and 70(2) of the Public Service Act 1999. The Defence Annual Report 2004-05 addresses the Department of Defence and the Australian Defence Force (ADF), which are collectively referred to as ‘Defence’. The Department of Veterans’ Affairs and the Defence Housing Authority, which are parts of the Defence Portfolio, have separate annual reports. The Australian Strategic Policy Institute, funded substantially by Defence, is a Government-owned company incorporated under the Corporations Act 2001 and has a separate annual report. Annual reports and portfolio budget and additional estimates statements are the principal formal accountability mechanisms between the Government, departments and the Parliament. Portfolio budget statements set out performance targets for departmental outputs. Portfolio additional estimates may contain revised targets and annual reports describe achievement against those targets. In addition, Defence’s annual reports are designed to link performance during the year under review with performance forecasts contained in the portfolio budget statements for the following year. Style Conventions The following notation may be used: -nil n/a not applicable (unless otherwise specified) $m $ million Figures in tables and in the text may be rounded. Figures in text are generally rounded to one decimal place, whereas figures in tables are generally rounded to the nearest thousand or million.
  • Submission on Integrated Movement Systems Discussion Paper

    Submission on Integrated Movement Systems Discussion Paper

    5 November 2018 Department of Planning, Transport and Infrastructure Dear Sir / Madam City of Salisbury submission on Integrated Movement Systems Discussion Paper Thank you for the opportunity to make a submission on the Integrated Movement Systems Discussion Paper. Council has been in caretaker mode for the Local Government Elections, and will consider this matter at its December round of meetings. The submission does however reflect various positions of Council that have been endorsed, and is considered to be consistent in its comments. A number of detailed comments are provided in the table at the end of the letter, but the key submission points are as follows: Airport policy consideration The City of Salisbury has within it two significant airports. Parafield Airport is a general aviation airport that also provides for aviation training facilities which includes repeated landing and take-off flight circuit training, and the RAAF Base Edinburgh which is a significant military airport that is home to long range surveillance aircraft and is utilised by jet fighters and support planes. Council is acutely aware of the impacts of airport operations on the community and also by the implementation of the National Airports Safeguarding Framework federal guidelines which includes airplane noise levels, and a recent draft Guideline on Public Safety Areas. There are a number of Guidelines of varying impacts and controls on development around airports, but these two significantly affect a large number of properties, with differing levels of policy requirements depending upon the airport type. It is considered that the Discussion Paper is almost silent both on the impact of airports on the communities around them, and as economic drivers in their own right.

  • Air Services Amendment Bill 2018 Submission 44

    Air Services Amendment Bill 2018 Submission 44

    Committee Secretary Senate Standing Committees on Rural and Regional Affairs and Transport Please accept the following submission on behalf of the City of Salisbury on this matter. The City of Salisbury is a suburban Council in metropolitan Adelaide, South Australia and is home to both Parafield Airport and Edinburgh Defence Base. We only became aware of the Air Services Amendment Bill and the Inquiry on the 28th May 2018 and we are disappointed, as a significant stakeholder in airport operations, that we were not made aware of the Bill and Inquiry in any formal manner that would allow proper consideration of the proposed Bill and its implications for the Salisbury Community. The City of Salisbury has within it a significant general aviation and flight training airport, Parafield Airport, which is managed by the Adelaide Airport. Its approved 2017 Master Plan indicates that the runway capacity is 450,000, and has a current movement of 214,000, with the 2037 forecast being 340,000 movements. I have attached the submission Council made on the Master Plan for the Inquiry information and use. It should be noted that the submission makes comments on reviewing the voluntary curfew, flight training circuits, and provision of a noise attenuation program. The submission also comments on the community feedback on investigating and resolving noise complaints, and seeks a review of the consultation methodology of Master Plans, and improvements to the complaint system and the membership selection process of the Consultative Committee. Council receives frequent complaints from residents under or near the Parafield Airport flight paths about the impacts of aircraft movements upon their amenity.
