  • A Transcript of Prime Minister John Key's Speech to the Canterbury Employers' Chamber of Commerce Function, 2Nd July 2015. Good
    A transcript of Prime Minister John Key's speech to the Canterbury Employers' Chamber of Commerce function, 2nd July 2015. Good afternoon. Thank you Peter for that warm welcome and for the Chamber's hosting of this event. It's good to see so many of you here today. Can I start by acknowledging Mayor Lianne Dalziel and other local body representatives from around the region. Just as central government has to make some tough decisions and trade-offs, so too do councils as we work together to rebuild this city. Together, we're making significant progress. Although, of course, there is still much to do. I'd also like to acknowledge my ministerial colleagues Gerry Brownlee, Amy Adams and Nicky Wagner. Gerry has provided strong leadership in overseeing what continues to be one of New Zealand's largest and most complex undertakings. Most recently he has been turning his mind to where we go following the expiry of the special earthquake recovery laws next April. I'll have some more to say about that in a few minutes. As we've said before, the estimated cost of the rebuild is around $40 billion. As a proportion of the economy, this makes it one of the most expensive natural disasters in the developed world. So thanks to all of you here who have worked so hard since the first earthquake in September 2010. I want to start today by talking about the economy and the significant contribution Canterbury makes to it. A strong and growing economy allows us to provide essential public services like hospitals and schools, and support our most vulnerable families.

  • General Assembly Concludes Two-Day Debate, Adopting Six Resolutions
    01/12/2010 General Assembly Concludes Two-Day… 30 November 2010 General Assembly GA/11027 Department of Public Information • News and Media Division • New York Sixty-fifth General Assembly Plenary 54 th & 55 th Meetings (AM & PM) GENERAL ASSEMBLY CONCLUDES TWO-DAY DEBATE, ADOPTING SIX RESOLUTIONS ON QUESTION OF PALESTINE, SITUATION IN MIDDLE EAST All Texts Adopted by Recorded Vote; Speakers Say Israel’s Intransigence Harms Peace Effort, United States’ Delegation ‘Disheartened’ by One-Sided Focus Convinced that a just, lasting and comprehensive settlement to the question of Palestine — the core of the Arab-Israeli conflict — was imperative for lasting Middle East peace, the General Assembly today stressed the urgent need for sustained international involvement, including by the Middle East diplomatic Quartet, to support both parties in resuming stalled peace negotiations. That position was echoed in a broad-based resolution on the peaceful settlement of the question of Palestine, adopted by a recorded vote of 165 in favour to 7 against (Australia, Israel, Marshall Islands, Micronesia, Nauru, Palau and United States), with 4 abstentions (Cameroon, Canada, Côte d’Ivoire, Tonga). (See Annex VI) The text was one of six adopted by recorded vote in a flurry of action that capped the Assembly’s two-day discussion of that issue along with the broader quest for peace in the Middle East. By the terms of the text, the Assembly reaffirmed the illegality of Israeli actions intended to change the status of Jerusalem, and expressed deep concern at closures and severe restrictions on the movement of persons and goods, the establishment of checkpoints and the imposition of a permit regime throughout the occupied Palestinian territory, including East Jerusalem, which had created a humanitarian crisis.

  • Library Year in Review 2018 -·
    University of Tasmania Library Year in Review 2018 -· . .. .... .. --- ..- ,,/ ';t{ Library year in review 2018 I am pleased to present an overview of the Library’s contribution towards the achievement of the University’s goals in learning, teaching and research. Staff have been the key to our success, and I thank them for their leadership and contribution. Janette Burke, University Librarian Highlights: • The Law Library was flooded in May, with the loss of over 4,000 books and the Law Library and Faculty of Law spaces extensively damaged. Library staff worked in collaboration with student and staff volunteers, Infrastructure Services, Information Technology Services (ITS) and the Faculty to ensure Law students and staff were able to access temporary study spaces and collections. The Library negotiated with publishers to provide interim access to electronic resources where possible to mitigate loss of access to over 26,000 print items that were temporarily moved to offsite store. Temporary study spaces were found for Postgraduates in the Morris Miller Library. In collaboration with staff from the Law Faculty, Library, Uconnect and student representatives, meetings were established to plan for the refurbishment of the Law Library and to replace significant print collections. • A new University Librarian, Janette Burke was appointed and started on 28th May. Janette was interim University Librarian at Monash University and was previously Director at Monash University Library, responsible for information resources, including collections, international partnerships, and systems. Janette has worked at Federation University, University of Wollongong, Central Queensland University and South Australia TAFE in various roles. • The Library was funded for the move and storage of 120,000 items from the Wilmot Store and the merger of the Music and Art Libraries in 2019.

  • New Broom in Burkina Faso?
    alexandra reza NEW BROOM IN BURKINA FASO? n late october 2014, hundreds of thousands of people poured onto the streets of Burkina Faso, incensed by Blaise Compaoré’s bid to change the constitution and seek a fifth presidential term.1 Many of their placards displayed photographs of Thomas Sankara, ICompaoré’s revolutionary predecessor. Others simply read: ‘Blaise, Get Out.’ Pressure had been building all year among citizens of the impov- erished West African state, and by October the mood had hardened. Compaoré clung on, sometimes defiant, sometimes pleading: suggesting reforms, appealing for stability, issuing reminders about the importance of the rule of law. The protests continued nonetheless. Police lined the streets. Many demonstrators were injured; at least thirty were killed. A group called Balai Citoyen (‘Citizens’ Broom’) played a key role in the protests. Balai was founded by prominent musicians: Smockey, a rapper, and the reggae artist Sams’K Le Jah, whose music helped to energize the mainly young crowd—60 per cent of Burkinabès are under 24. As well as Balai Citoyen, other social movements mobilized, among them the Mouvement Ça Suffit (‘That’s Enough’), along with trade unionists and established opposition politicians such as Zéphirin Diabré and Saran Sérémé, who had formerly been members of Compaoré’s ruling party. Sérémé and her colleague Juliette Kongo organized a major women’s protest in the capital Ouagadougou on 27 October. Thousands marched, holding wooden cooking spatulas and megaphones in the air. Eventually, on the 30th, a huge crowd—the opposition claimed it was a million strong—marched on the parliament building and breached its security cordon.

  • How to Prevent Inappropriate Restrictions on NGO Activities in Europe?
    http://assembly.coe.int Doc. 13940 08 January 2016 How to prevent inappropriate restrictions on NGO activities in Europe? Report1 Committee on Legal Affairs and Human Rights Rapporteur: Mr Yves CRUCHTEN, Luxembourg, Socialist Group Summary In its report, the Committee on Legal Affairs and Human Rights examines the situation of civil society in four countries: the Russian Federation, Azerbaijan, Turkey and Hungary. It expresses particular concern about the recent deterioration of the working environment for NGOs in the first two States due to recent changes in the legislation on NGOs. In Azerbaijan, many activists and NGO leaders critical of the authorities have been sentenced to long-term prison sentences on charges of “tax evasion” or “fraud” directly related to their activities. In Russia, NGOs engaged in “political activities” and receiving funds from abroad must now register as “foreign agents”. Nearly one hundred NGOs which refused to do so have been included in such a register by decision of the Minister of Justice. The report also notes that in Turkey several human rights organisations have been targeted, arbitrarily, on the basis of anti-terrorist legislation and takes stock of the situation in Hungary, where certain NGOs receiving funds from abroad were raided by the authorities. The member States of the Council of Europe are called upon to fully implement the well-established standards on freedom of association and the Council of Europe should strengthen its co-operation with civil society. 1.
