  • 2019 Nsw State Budget Estimates – Relevant Committee Members
    2019 NSW STATE BUDGET ESTIMATES – RELEVANT COMMITTEE MEMBERS There are seven “portfolio” committees who run the budget estimate questioning process. These committees correspond to various specific Ministries and portfolio areas, so there may be a range of Ministers, Secretaries, Deputy Secretaries and senior public servants from several Departments and Authorities who will appear before each committee. The different parties divide up responsibility for portfolio areas in different ways, so some minor party MPs sit on several committees, and the major parties may have MPs with titles that don’t correspond exactly. We have omitted the names of the Liberal and National members of these committees, as the Alliance is seeking to work with the Opposition and cross bench (non-government) MPs for Budget Estimates. Government MPs are less likely to ask questions that have embarrassing answers. Victor Dominello [Lib, Ryde], Minister for Customer Services (!) is the minister responsible for Liquor and Gaming. Kevin Anderson [Nat, Tamworth], Minister for Better Regulation, which is located in the super- ministry group of Customer Services, is responsible for Racing. Sophie Cotsis [ALP, Canterbury] is the Shadow for Better Public Services, including Gambling, Julia Finn [ALP, Granville] is the Shadow for Consumer Protection including Racing (!). Portfolio Committee no. 6 is the relevant committee. Additional information is listed beside each MP. Bear in mind, depending on the sitting timetable (committees will be working in parallel), some MPs will substitute in for each other – an MP who is not on the standing committee but who may have a great deal of knowledge might take over questioning for a session.

PRESENT The Hon. Shayne Mallard (Chair) Ms Abigail Boyd The Hon. Ben Franklin The Hon. Rose Jackson The Hon. Taylor Martin Reverend the Hon. Fred Nile The Hon. Mark Pearson The Hon. Natalie Ward Friday, 13 November 2020 Legislative Council Page 1 CORRECTED The CHAIR: Good morning. Welcome to the Standing Committee on Social Issues inquiry into gay and transgender hate crimes between 1970 and 2010. The inquiry was re-established following the Committee's work in the last Parliament. The inquiry is continuing to investigate whether there were any impediments within the New South Wales criminal justice system that impacted the protection of LGBTQI people and whether they have been effectively addressed by current policy and practices. We will also continue to examine the delivery of justice to victims of LGBTQI hate crimes and their families. Before I commence, I acknowledge the Gadigal people who are the traditional custodians of this land and any other Aboriginal people who are joining us around the State via social media or the internet. I also pay my respects to Elders past, present and emerging of the Eora nation and I extend that respect to other Aboriginal people. Today we will hear from a number of stakeholders, including ACON and the NSW Police Force. I thank everyone for taking the time to give evidence to this important inquiry.

  • Background and Recent Advances in the Locata Terrestrial Positioning and Timing Technology
    sensors Review Background and Recent Advances in the Locata Terrestrial Positioning and Timing Technology Chris Rizos 1 and Ling Yang 2,* 1 School of Civil and Environmental Engineering, University of New South Wales, Sydney 2052, Australia; [email protected] 2 College of Surveying and Geo-Informatics, Tongji University, Shanghai 200092, China * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +86-21-65985947 Received: 10 March 2019; Accepted: 14 April 2019; Published: 16 April 2019 Abstract: Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) is the most widely used Positioning, Navigation, and Timing (PNT) technology in the world today, but it suffers some major constraints. Locata is a terrestrial PNT technology that can be considered as a type of localised “constellation”, which is able to provide high-accuracy PNT coverage where GNSS cannot be used. This paper presents a comprehensive literature review of the Locata technology and its applications. It seeks to answer questions, such as: (1) What is Locata and how does it work? (2) What makes Locata unique compared with other terrestrial positioning systems? (3) How has Locata been used in different applications for accurate PNT? (4) What are the current challenging issues that may restrict its further adoption for custom-grade navigation in urban environments? Keywords: Locata; PNT; terrestrial constellation 1. Introduction The field of Positioning, Navigation, and Timing (PNT) has been an active research and development focus for many decades. The Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) is undoubtedly the most widely used PNT technology today, with user equipment and techniques having evolved over the past few decades to their current highly-developed forms.
