Government Printer for the State of Victoria. Parliamentary Paper No. 194, Session 2018‐2021 i Useful information Role of the Committee The Scrutiny of Acts and Regulations Committee is an all‐party Joint House Committee, which examines all Bills and subordinate legislation (regulations) introduced or tabled in the Parliament. The Committee does not make any comments on the policy merits of the legislation. The Committee’s terms of reference contain principles of scrutiny that enable it to operate in the best traditions of non‐partisan legislative scrutiny. These traditions have developed since the first Australian scrutiny of Bills committee of the Australian Senate commenced scrutiny of Bills in 1982. They are precedents and traditions followed by all Australian scrutiny committees. Non‐policy scrutiny within its terms of reference allows the Committee to alert the Parliament to the use of certain legislative practices and allows the Parliament to consider whether these practices are necessary, appropriate or desirable in all the circumstances. The Charter of Human Rights and Responsibilities Act 2006 provides that the Committee must consider any Bill introduced into Parliament and report to the Parliament whether the Bill is incompatible with human rights. Interpretive use of Parliamentary Committee reports Section 35 (b)(iv) of the Interpretation of Legislation Act 1984 provides – In the interpretation of a provision of an Act or subordinate instrument consideration may be given to any matter or document that is relevant including, but not limited to, reports of Parliamentary Committees. When may human rights be limited Section 7 of the Charter provides – Human rights – what they are and when they may be limited – (2) A human right may be subject under law only to such reasonable limits as can be demonstrably justified in a free and democratic society based on human dignity, equality and freedom, and taking into account all relevant factors including— (a) the nature of the right; and (b) the importance of the purpose of the limitation; and (c) the nature and extent of the limitation; and (d) the relationship between the limitation and its purpose; and (e) any less restrictive means reasonably available to achieve the purpose that the limitation seeks to achieve Glossary and Symbols ‘Assembly’ refers to the Legislative Assembly of the Victorian Parliament ‘Charter’ refers to the Victorian Charter of Human Rights and Responsibilities Act 2006 ‘Council’ refers to the Legislative Council of the Victorian Parliament ‘DPP’ refers to the Director of Public Prosecutions for the State of Victoria ‘human rights’ refers to the rights set out in Part 2 of the Charter ‘IBAC’ refers to the Independent Broad‐based Anti‐corruption Commission ‘PCA’ refers to the Parliamentary Committees Act 2003 ‘penalty units’ refers to the penalty unit fixed from time to time in accordance with the Monetary Units Act 2004 and published in the government gazette (as at 1 July 2020 one penalty unit equals $165.22) ‘Statement of Compatibility’ refers to a statement made by a member introducing a Bill in either the Council or the Assembly as to whether the provisions in a Bill are compatible with Charter rights ‘VCAT’ refers to the Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal [ ] denotes clause numbers in a Bill ii Alert Digest No. 1 of 2021 Education and Training Reform Amendment (Miscellaneous) Bill 2020 Member Hon James Merlino MP Introduction Date 8 December 2020 Portfolio Education Second Reading Date 9 December 2020 Summary The Bill generally amends the Education and Training Reform Act 2006 (ETR Act). The Bill:‐ further clarifies and provides for the duties, functions and powers of the Victorian Institute of Teaching in relation to the approval of a program or course of study that leads to qualifying as a teacher; further amends the existing process for investigating the conduct, competence and fitness to teach of teachers and early childhood teachers including the conduct of preliminary assessments; makes amendments in respect of teacher registration in relation to the length of time for provisional reinstatement of a teacher; increases the scope of delegation powers of the Victorian Institute of Teaching and amends the Minister’s powers to issue policies, guidelines or directions to the Victorian Institute of Teaching. Part 2 – Victorian Institute of Teaching (VIT) amendments Clause 2 is the commencement provision.1 [2] It amends 2.6.3 of the ETR Act to enable the Minister to approve requirements, criteria or entry standards for initial teacher education programs including pathway programs2 recommended by the VIT (not the Accreditation Committee). Standards approved by the Minister must be published.3 The Minister must consider any requirements, criteria or standards which have been agreed with other States, Territories and the Commonwealth including teacher registration authorities. [5,7] Note the Second Reading Speech:‐ ‘The Bill also proposed new powers for VIT with respect to the approval of programs that are identified or marketed as offering a pathway to entry into an approved ITE program (pathway programs). The Victorian Government recognises the valuable scaffolding and support that pathway programs can provide to candidates who have not obtained the minimum ATAR for direct entry to ITE programs, to develop their skills to a level preparing them for entry to ITE.’ New Division 2B of Part 2.6 inserted by clause 7 sets out the initial teacher education program approval process. The endorsement process for continuing education programs is provided for in Division 2C of 1 Note the Explanatory memorandum:‐ ‘Subclause (3) provides that if a provision of the Bill does not come into operation before the first anniversary of the day on which it receives Royal Assent, it comes into operation on that day. The default commencement date has been chosen due to the potential for delay caused by the COVID‐19 pandemic, which will assist in the efficient implementation of the reforms contained in the Bill should a delay of this nature be realised.’ 2 Note the Explanatory memorandum:‐ ‘Pathway programs can provide support for candidates who have not achieved the minimum Australian Tertiary Admission Rank for direct entry to an initial teacher education program, to support them to develop skills to a level preparing them for entry to an initial teacher education program.’ 3 Note the Explanatory memorandum:‐ ‘The Institute must publish the approved requirements, criteria or standards on its website under new section 2.6.5(5).’ 1 Scrutiny of Acts and Regulations Committee Part 2.6. [7] A provider of a program or course of study may apply to the VIT (not the Accreditation Committee) for approval of an initial teacher education program as a pathway program.

  • Liberal Nationals Released a Plan
    COVID-19 RESPONSE May 2020 michaelobrien.com.au COVID-19 RESPONSE Dear fellow Victorians, By working with the State and Federal Governments, we have all achieved an extraordinary outcome in supressing COVID-19 that makes Victoria – and Australia - the envy of the world. We appreciate everyone who has contributed to this achievement, especially our essential workers. You have our sincere thanks. This achievement, however, has come at a significant cost to our local economy, our community and to our way of life. With COVID-19 now apparently under a measure of control, it is urgent that the Andrews Labor Government puts in place a clear plan that enables us to take back our Michael O’Brien MP lives and rebuild our local communities. Liberal Leader Many hard lessons have been learnt from the virus outbreak; we now need to take action to deal with these shortcomings, such as our relative lack of local manufacturing capacity. The Liberals and Nationals have worked constructively during the virus pandemic to provide positive suggestions, and to hold the Andrews Government to account for its actions. In that same constructive manner we have prepared this Plan: our positive suggestions about what we believe should be the key priorities for the Government in the recovery phase. This is not a plan for the next election; Victorians can’t afford to wait that long. This is our Plan for immediate action by the Andrews Labor Government so that Victoria can rebuild from the damage done by COVID-19 to our jobs, our communities and our lives. These suggestions are necessarily bold and ambitious, because we don’t believe that business as usual is going to be enough to secure our recovery.

  • For VFBV District Councils
    For VFBV District Councils This list shows responses from Victorian State MPs to VFBV’s 11 June letter on the issue of presumptive legislation – the firefighters’ cancer law that would simplify the path to cancer compensation for Victorian volunteer and career firefighters. District Councils are encouraged to use this list as part of their planning to ensure that volunteers contact all State MPs in their area and seek their support on this important issue. See the VFBV website for more information on the issue, including a copy of our ‘Notes for MPs’ that volunteers can present to MPs. As at 22 August 2013; There has been strong support from the Greens, who have presented draft legislation to State Parliament, and in-principle support from Labor The Coalition Government has not committed to supporting presumptive legislation. VFBV is committed to working with all Victorian MPs to secure all-party support for fairer and simpler access to cancer compensation for Victorian volunteer and career firefighters and a part of that is having volunteers talk to their local MPs. See below for the response received from individual MPs, listed in alphabetical order. Please advise the VFBV office of any contacts made and responses from MPs. Name, Party and Electorate Have they replied to VFBV’s Summary of the MPs’ advice or actions letter of 11 June 2013? Jacinta Allan No Supportive: Yes.

We’re reminded to look for the blessings in our lives. Perhaps today’s the day to begin a gratitude diary, to help you focus on where God has been blessing you and the wider community. Thank God for every mercy and grace, blessing us beyond all measure Give thanks for the work and witness of the Church of Ceylon.
