  • Premier Jay Weatherill News Release
    News Release Premier Jay Weatherill Tuesday , 3 January 2015 Maher joins Cabinet as Close takes Education and Child Development Kyam Maher is the new Minister for Manufacturing and Innovation and Minister Susan Close will take on the Education and Child Development portfolio following a swearing in ceremony at Government House. Premier Jay Weatherill said today’s reshuffle was necessitated by Monday’s retirement of Jennifer Rankine from the Ministry. “Beyond the replacement of Minister Rankine it is essentially a fine-tuning of portfolios,” he said. Other changes include Deputy Premier John Rau taking on the new portfolio of Child Protection Reform meaning he takes responsibility for responding to the findings of the Royal Commission into Families SA and the Coroner’s findings from the Chloe Valentine inquest. Sustainability, Environment and Conservation Minister Ian Hunter gains the new portfolio of Climate Change while Minister Close retains the Public Sector portfolio and takes on Education and Child Development. Member for Reynell Katrine Hildyard joins executive Government as a Parliamentary Secretary to the Premier. Mr Maher will also take on the responsibility as Minister for Automotive Transformation and Minister for Aboriginal Affairs and Reconciliation. Mr Weatherill welcomed Mr Maher to the Cabinet table saying he has demonstrated acuity on committees and as a member of the Legislative Council. “Kyam took up a parliamentary secretary role last year and is one of the crop of young talented individuals ready to step up,” Mr Weatherill said. “He is former State Secretary of the Labor Party and was also a chief of staff to former Minister Terry Roberts who held the portfolios of Regional Affairs, Aboriginal Affairs and Correctional Services.

(Continued from 12 May 2021.) The Hon. S.S. MARSHALL (Dunstan—Premier) (19:31): I rise to speak on the Voluntary Assisted Dying Bill. I support the second reading of this bill. I have supported legislation for assisted dying when it has been before this house previously. I do so again, not because I would avail myself of such laws but because I do not believe that I can deny other South Australians the right to make that choice. In providing this legal option at the end of a person's life, this bill establishes a range of mandatory protections, approvals and reviews to prevent exploitation. I have every respect for those who do not support voluntary assisted dying. I understand their views and their concerns. I have considered the deep and sensitive moral, ethical, legal, medical and professional considerations associated with this question, but it is also important to recognise that with the passage of these laws we will not be entering on the so-called slippery slope.

Please note that I am supportive of the intent of the proposed DPA. Accordingly, and pursuant to section 25(1) of the Development Act 1993 (the Act), I agree to the 501 on the proviso that Council works closely with the Department of Planning, Transport and Infrastructure in preparing the DPA, to ensure consistency with the Character policy being developed for the Planning and Design Code (the Code). As Council is aware, the Code will be deployed in three phases, and the City of Mitcham will form part of the Phase Three transition. It is expected that this phase of the Code consultation will commence from October 2019, and be spatially applied to the Council area by July 2020. In progressing the DPA, Council needs to keep in mind the following timeframes in relation to lodging the DPA for approval and transitioning policy into the Code. To enable the DPA amendments to be transitioned into the Code for Phase Three implementation (July 2020), it is recommended that the DPA is lodged for approval by 11 January 2020. Any DPA lodged after this time may need to be approved and transitioned into the Code after implementation.
