    Dear Mr McCusker, Please find attached Enhancing Democracy in Western Australia, my submission to the review of the Western Australian Legislative Council electoral system. I am happy for it to be made public. Yours sincerely, Chris Curtis Enhancing Democracy in Western Australia Chris Curtis May 2021 The manufactured hysteria that greeted Ricky Muir’s election to the Senate and that ultimately led to the Turnbull government’s rigging the Senate voting system to favour the Greens over the micro-parties is getting an encore performance with the election of Wilson Tucker in Western Australia, despite the unremarked-upon election in both jurisdictions of many more candidates of major parties from even lower primary votes and with the added twist that most members of the panel established to investigate the matter have already endorsed, even promoted, the hysteria (https://insidestory.org.au/an-affront-to-anyone-who- believes-in-democracy/). While it is clear from this fact that submissions in support of logic and democracy have already been ruled out of consideration, it is worthwhile putting them on the public record for future historians to refer to and so that more reasonable politicians can revisit the issue if the hysteria dies down.

  • Avon-Midland Country Zone of the WA Local Government Association
    Avon-Midland Country Zone of the WA Local Government Association MINUTES OF THE ZONE MEETING held at the Goomalling Sport & Recreation Centre, Cnr Quinlan & Hoddy St, Goomalling Friday 25 June 2021 commencing at 10:16 am 1 OPENING & WELCOME The Zone President and Chair of the meeting, Cr Ken Seymour, welcomed delegates and observers and introduced Mr Peter Bentley, CEO, Shire of Goomalling. Cr Bentley welcomed delegates to Goomalling and commented on – The Shire has been undertaking budget repair over the past 2-3 years and progress is being made. Funding received under the Australian Government’s Local Roads and Community Infrastructure Program has made a difference. Wheatbelt Secondary Freight Network - The first section of work has been completed on the Calingiri-Goomalling Road. The clearing permit process for roadworks has cost the Shire around $300,000 plus to date. Principally for 3 ha on the Goomalling-Meckering Road. A clearing permit for 8-9 ha will be required for the next stage of work on the Calingiri-Goomalling Road and cost is a worry. The Shire has written to the Minister expressing concern with the costs and delays associated with obtaining clearing permits for road reserves. Anstey Park revitalisation - It is proposed to redeveloped Anstey Park in Goomalling’s main street. The work will involve the demolition of the old CWA rooms. The redevelopment will include some form of recognition of the CWA. There is a proposal for the Department of Water dam adjacent to the Goomalling CBH site to be lined. The dam is saline as its depth is too great.
