  • Appendix a (PDF 85KB)
    A Appendix A: Committee visits to remote Aboriginal and Torres Strait communities As part of the Committee’s inquiry into remote Indigenous community stores the Committee visited seventeen communities, all of which had a distinctive culture, history and identity. The Committee began its community visits on 30 March 2009 travelling to the Torres Strait and the Cape York Peninsula in Queensland over four days. In late April the Committee visited communities in Central Australia over a three day period. Final consultations were held in Broome, Darwin and various remote regions in the Northern Territory including North West Arnhem Land. These visits took place in July over a five day period. At each location the Committee held a public meeting followed by an open forum. These meetings demonstrated to the Committee the importance of the store in remote community life. The Committee appreciated the generous hospitality and evidence provided to the Committee by traditional owners and elders, clans and families in all the remote Aboriginal and Torres Strait communities visited during the inquiry. The Committee would also like to thank everyone who assisted with the administrative organisation of the Committee’s community visits including ICC managers, Torres Strait Councils, Government Business Managers and many others within the communities. A brief synopsis of each community visit is set out below.1 1 Where population figures are given, these are taken from a range of sources including 2006 Census data and Grants Commission figures. 158 EVERYBODY’S BUSINESS Torres Strait Islands The Torres Strait Islands (TSI), traditionally called Zenadth Kes, comprise 274 small islands in an area of 48 000 square kilometres (kms), from the tip of Cape York north to Papua New Guinea and Indonesia.

  • Final Milestone Report on the Gulf Reconnaissance Component
    Report to Land & Water Australia Ecosystem processes in tropical rivers: conceptual models and future research. Final milestone report on the gulf reconnaissance component August 2005 Prepared by: DR ANDREW BROOKS Centre for Riverine Landscapes, Griffith University Email: [email protected] Project Reference: GRU34 ABSTRACT As part of the developmental phase of the Tropical Rivers and Coastal Knowledge (TRaCK) Program this project was instigated to undertake a reconnaissance of all rivers draining into the Gulf of Carpentaria, as well as collecting baseline data and undertaking regional stakeholder consultation. The primary field component of this project was undertaken during September and October 2004, during which time an aerial reconnaissance was completed along the trunk streams of all major rivers draining into the Gulf of Carpentaria. Global Positioning System (GPS) located videography was successfully trialled in this reconnaissance using a non gyro-stabilised mounting from a twin engine, fixed wing platform. Using this approach, high-resolution imagery (1 – 2m) of the channel and riparian zone was collected along 13500km of river channel over 43 hours of flying time. The imagery collected equates to around 52% of the channel network defined by the 1:5M topographic network, which is the network being used to define the streams being classified in an affiliated project. At around $5.50 per river kilometre, this approach has proved to be an efficient and cost effective method of undertaking reconnaissance of large remote area river systems, which at the same time provides a high quality permanent record of the river channel that can effectively form the baseline inventory for subsequent research.
