According to a police report, at about 11:15pm on Sunday a 42-year- old woman and her two children, aged six and four, were in a Mitsubishi Outlander when it was washed off a causeway about one kilometre north of the intersection of Wilsons Creek Road and Upper Wilsons Creek Road. The mother managed to get out of the vehicle; however, the Outlander was washed away by floodwaters be- fore she could remove her son and daughter. Police and other emergency ser- vices attended, but due to the height of the floodwaters, it was impossible for vehicles to cross safely. A local resident helped to string a rope across the causeway, enabling a senior constable and two Volunteer Rescue Association (VRA) personnel to cross on foot. The resident then led the police officer and VRA work- ers to the vehicle, which was trapped downstream about three metres from the river bank in extremely fast flow- ing water. A VRA worker climbed onto the Outlander’s roof and removed the four-year-old boy and six-year-old The Voyeur Byron’s Fashion Exposé, a fundraiser for the Byron Community Centre, packed the house full of local fashionistas last Friday night.

Since its formation in 2003, Ofcom has not conducted any dedicated consultation on the options to develop local TV, despite recognising the risk of market failure in local broadcasting. During the passage of the Communications Act the Labour Government explicitly stated that Ofcom would be required to evaluate local TV as one of its core duties to citizens. In rejecting Lord Thomson of Monifeith’s proposed amendments on 6 May 2003 Baroness Blackstone responded for the Government: “Ofcom already has a number of general duties that one would expect to encourage the development of local TV... I am confident that that will happen. Ofcom’s duty in Clause 3(1) is to further the interests of consumers and the community as a whole.
