Institutionalisation of Aborigines, under the guise of assimilation and protection policies, was only abandoned in.the lg7Os. It is therefore important to understand the implications of these policies for Aborigines and Australian society in general. I investigate the affect of institutionalisation on Aborigines, questioning the assumption tl.at they were passive victims forced onto missions and government stations and kept there as virtual prisoners. -

Whyalla and Eyre Peninsula
SOUTH AUSTRALIAN CENTRE FOR ECONOMIC STUDIES ADELAIDE & FLINDERS UNIVERSITIES Regional Development Australia Whyalla and Eyre Peninsula Overview Geography RDA Whyalla and Eyre Peninsula covers an area of 170,500 square kilometres or 17.3 per cent of the State’s land mass. Population As at 30th June 2010 the region’s population was 58,700 persons or 3.6 per cent of the State’s population. The Indigenous population was estimated at 2,500 persons or 4.4 per cent of the region’s population. Economy and Labour force The region contributed $2,297 million to the State economy in 2006/07 or 3.4 per cent of gross state product. The four largest employing industries in the Whyalla Eyre Peninsula region were agriculture and fisheries (18.2 per cent), retail trade (14.3 per cent), manufacturing (11.9 per cent) and health and community services (10.9 per cent). Mining was relatively small at 1.4 per cent but is likely to show strong growth in the median term. The labour market is relatively strong with a participation rate above the State average and lower unemployment than the State average. Participation in VET courses is well above that for the State as a whole, while full-time participation in secondary school at age 16 is 71.4 per cent compared to South Australia at 78.4 per cent. NAPLAN reading results at year 3 are 15 percentage points lower than the State average but by year 7 they are 4.5 percentage points below the State average which indicates stronger school attendance over primary years of schooling. -
BHP “Extreme” Consequence Tailings Dams with Potential to Cause Fatality of 100 Employees
BHP “Extreme” consequence tailings dams with potential to cause fatality of 100 employees: Briefing Paper by David Noonan, Independent Environment Campaigner - 22 May 2020 BHP has Questions to answer on Worker Safety, Transparency and Accountability at Olympic Dam BHP took over Olympic Dam copper-uranium mine in 2005, operating the mine for a decade before a GHD “TSF Dam Break Safety Report”1 to BHP in August 2016 concluded all existing Tailings Storage Facilities (TSFs) are “Extreme” consequence tailings dams with a failure potential to cause the death of 100 BHP employees: “BHP OD has assessed the consequence category of the TSFs according to ANCOLD (2012a,b). A dam break study, which considered 16 breach scenarios of TSFs 1 to 5, was completed by GHD (2016) and indicated a potential for tailings and water flow into the mine’s backfill quarry and underground portal. The following conclusions were drawn: • The population at risk (PAR) for a TSF embankment breach is greater than 100 to less than 1000 mine personnel primarily as a result of the potential flow of tailings into the adjacent backfill quarry and entrance to the underground mine. • The financial cost to BHP OD for a tailings dam failure was assessed by BHP OD to be greater than US$1B, a “catastrophic” loss according to ANCOLD guidelines (2012a,b). Based on these criteria, the TSFs at Olympic Dam have been given a consequence category of “Extreme” to guide future assessments and designs. Note that this is an increase compared to the assessment prior to the FY16 Annual Safety Inspection and Review (Golder Associates, 2016a) which classified TSF 1-4 and TSF 5 as “High A” and “High B”, respectively. -
