Jacinta Allan, MP Minister for Regional and Rural Development Level 36 121 Exhibition Street Melbourne 3000 Dear Minister, Regional Development Victoria Annual Report 2006/07 I am pleased to submit to you, for presentation to Parliament, Regional Development Victoria’s Annual Report. The document outlines the achievements of the organisation for the year ended 30 June 2007. Yours sincerely, Dan O’Brien Chief Executive 1.0 Introduction Regional Development Victoria (RDV) works closely with the Department of Innovation, Industry and Regional Development and other Government departments to meet its key strategic objective of facilitating economic, infrastructure and community development to support a prosperous and growing provincial Victoria. RDV pursues fi ve distinct strategies to achieve its objective of ensuring the sustained economic growth and industry development of regional Victoria. 1. Develop and facilitate investment in provincial Victoria in industry sectors managed by RDV; 2. Provide assistance for infrastructure projects that contribute to economic growth; 3. Facilitate sustainable business development through the provision of information, programs, advice and referral services; 4. Facilitate rural and regional community building and engagement; and 5. Encourage regional population growth. RDV ANNUAL REPORT 2006/07 1.1 Chief Executive Foreword I have had the privilege of leading Regional Development Victoria for almost the full 2006/07 year following my commencement as Chief Executive on 17 July 2006. The rich complexity of issues and challenges for an organisation whose primary objective is the sustained economic and industry development of provincial Victoria brought me to the role. Through sustained and strategic support to key stakeholders, Regional Development Victoria achieved its major goals as provincial Victoria continued to enjoy economic, population and jobs growth over the past year. Highlights for the 2006/07 year include: • commencement of all initiatives and programs announced in the Government’s $502 million action plan for growth in provincial Victoria: Moving Forward: Making Provincial Victoria the Best Place to Live, Work and Invest; • extension of the successful Make it Happen in Provincial Victoria campaign to target business and promote investment in provincial Victoria; • announcement of exciting new sponsorships to leverage the Make it Happen brand including Bendigo Spirit (Women’s National Basketball League) and Geelong Football Club; • leading the coordination and support for the Government’s $138 million bushfi re recovery package; • offering assistance through the Community Regional Industry Skills Program to address skills shortages; and • attracting 2,395 new jobs in provincial Victoria, facilitating $1.52 billion of new investment, and $273.7 million in new exports. To continue to achieve these and other milestones, in January 2007 RDV underwent a restructure. This resulted in positioning it to respond to the many challenges facing an economy dealing with on-going drought, summer bushfi res, frost and fl oods. The restructure ensures that RDV maintains and grows its position as the lead agency for economic development in provincial Victoria. In swift response to drought, bushfi res, frost and fl oods, RDV helped establish and deliver a number of new programs including the Business Continuity Program, Local Infrastructure Works Program and the Regional Industry Investment Program. Throughout the year Victorian businesses showed their confi dence in the strength and robustness of the provincial Victorian economy with major announcements of signifi cant investments and expansion that included: • Unilever Australasia’s $58 million expansion of its Tatura manufacturing plant; • GlaxoSmithKline’s $20 million expansion of its local alkaloids manufacturing facility at Port Fairy taking the company’s local investment to more than $50 million in recent years; and • KR Castlemaine’s $15 million upgrade of its Victorian plant as part of a consolidation of operations that will create 250 new jobs in central Victoria and see all of the company’s smallgoods manufactured in Castlemaine. PAGE | 5 I would like to thank RDV staff who demonstrated that the organisation’s can-do reputation is founded on dedication to service delivery and exceptional levels of professionalism. Staff in RDV’s regional locations excelled in sometimes tough conditions and this year their efforts deserve a special mention. Staff in the regions forge close working relationships with a wide range of stakeholders and are involved in, or have representation on, a number of local networks, business, local government, associations and community organisations. The Regional Development Advisory Committee continued in its vital role of advising the Minister on matters of economic importance in provincial Victoria. The Committee’s input and advice has been invaluable in helping respond to the challenges impacting the growth and sustainability of the economy in provincial Victoria. Provincial Victoria is growing with record numbers of jobs, investments and people fl owing into the regions. I am confi dent Regional Development Victoria will continue to help grow all of the State through building the vital infrastructure needed by regional communities and attracting industry and investment to drive new industry growth, attracting more people and new jobs into provincial Victoria. Yours sincerely, Dan O’Brien Chief Executive PAGE | 6 RDV ANNUAL REPORT 2006/07 PAGE | 7 2.0 Overview of Regional Developm Regional Development Victoria: • delivers programs and quality advice to help grow a robust economy and innovative and sustainable enterprises

    THE JOINT SELECT COMMITTEE ON FUTURE GAMING MARKETS MET IN COMMITTEE ROOM 2, PARLIAMENT HOUSE, HOBART ON FRIDAY, 18 AUGUST 2017 Ms LEANNE MINSHULL, DIRECTOR, THE AUSTRALIA INSTITUTE TASMANIA WAS CALLED VIA TELECONFERENCE AND WAS EXAMINED. CHAIR (Mr Gaffney) - Thank you, Leanne, for agreeing to discuss your paper and present to the committee. Ms MINSHULL - Thanks for the opportunity. CHAIR - We have received a copy of your report and have tabled that as part of our evidence. That is why it is important for us to speak to you, because then it can be used to help us with our report. Leanne, please give an introduction and overview of the report and how it came about. After that, members might like to ask questions about specifics within the report. Ms MINSHULL - Okay, great. I am sitting in an airport so occasionally there will get announcements in the background, but I will just plough on. The Australia Institute Tasmania is a national institute that has been in operation since about 1994. They have a long history in looking at economic policy issues, in particular jobs, unemployment and what direct and indirect jobs can be attributed to specific industries. We looked at the gaming industry, in particular, in Tasmania for two reasons. One is because we recently started a branch there. We've been open in Tasmania for about six months. It is obviously a contested issue in the community. As part of our national work we look at Australian Bureau of Statistics statistics every time the quarterly statistics come out. We noticed a few anomalies between what was being reported as direct and indirect employment in Tasmania in the gambling industry and what we would normally see using some of the ABS data.

The site closest to the entrance (St Leonards) showed short-lived pulses of recruits in low numbers. The site of intermediate distance into the bay (Grassy Point) showed a similar pattern; however, in this case there was a marked accumulation of recruits over time. In contrast, recruitment was low at the site furthest into the bay (Grand Scenlc), and the pattern was unlike the other sites. We simulated the transport of S punctata larvae into Port Phillip Bay over th~spenod using 2- and 3-dimensional hydrodynamic and dlspersal models. A hlgh proportion (two-thirds) of the variation in recruitment at St Leonards and Grassy Point could be explained by 2 factors. the predicted arrival of larvae based on passlve transport by currents, and disturbance of individual seagrass sites by wave action.
