I am grateful to my right hon. Friend the Secretary of The House met at half-past Ten o’clock State for his answer, but will he reassure the House and my constituents that he intends to repeal perverse rules PRAYERS that prevent local councillors from standing up for their constituents— [MR SPEAKER in the Chair] Mr Speaker: Order. I am sorry, but I must now cut off the hon. Gentleman. From now on, questions and answers must be briefer. Oral Answers to Questions Mr Pickles: I think I got the gist; I think my hon. Friend was referring to predetermination and I am delighted to inform the House that it is our intention to COMMUNITIES AND LOCAL GOVERNMENT repeal those regulations. That means we can give local councils the thing that Members of Parliament so desire— that councillors with opinions can actually vote on The Secretary of State was asked— those opinions. -

Address by His Excellency Takaaki Kojima
Address by His Excellency Mr Takaaki Kojima, Ambassador of Japan to Australia Japan-Australia Relations IN THE ZONE (Plenary Session 2: Australia in the “Asian Century” and strategic role in the zone) 9 November 2009 1 His Excellency Dr Ken Michael, The Honorable Chris Evans, Professor Kim Beazley, Dr Michael Chaney, His Excellency Ambassador Zhang Junsai, Distinguished guests, Ladies and Gentlemen, 1. Introduction – Comprehensive Strategic Partnership It is a great pleasure for me to be given an opportunity to speak at this inaugural international public policy conference, IN THE ZONE, organized by the University of Western Australia. I am delighted to have come back again to this beautiful city. As a matter of fact, immediately after I assumed the present post, I did visit Western Australia for my first official state visit in Australia as ambassador. The reason is obvious. Western Australia is most important for Japan. In this session, following the excellent tone-setting address by Minister Evans and the speech by Ambassador Zhang, I would like to speak about the bilateral relationship between Japan and Australia, focusing on recent developments, referring to the strategic importance of Western Australia. As you are all aware, the Democratic Party of Japan gained a landslide victory at the last general election and the new government led by Prime Minister Yukio Hatoyama came into office in September. Prime Minister Hatoyama and Prime Minister Rudd have already met in New York at the United Nations General Assembly and at the G20 Summit held in Pittsburgh last September. 2 They also met at the East Asia Summit meeting in Thailand late October and will meet again at the APEC leaders’ meeting in Singapore later this week. -

Sas Resources Fund History 1996-2016
SPECIAL AIR SERVICE RESOURCES FUND 5 SAS RESOURCES FUND HISTORY 1996-2016 November 2016 SPECIAL AIR SERVICE RESOURCES FUND 6 FOREWORD If there was one single glimmer of light to emerge from the ashes of the 1996 Blackhawk disaster, it would certainly be the creation of the Special Air Service Resources Fund. While the unit was understandably reeling from its worst ever loss, and rightfully focused on rebuilding the short notice Counter Terrorism capability that Australia relies upon it to provide, a selfless group of individuals coalesced, unprompted, and set about creating this amazing institution. In doing so, they reacted swiftly, decisively and generously; and have continued to ever since. The 20 years since the Blackhawk tragedy represents about a “generation” within the Special Air Service Regiment; the unit’s most senior soldiers today were young troopers or lance corporals back in 1996 when the accident occurred. Sadly, during that generation, almost every single member of the unit has experienced the loss of a friend in training or combat. But on each occasion, in the midst of their grief, our men and women have also seen the Fund immediately step into action. As a result, we have witnessed the children of our fallen mates grow up, being cared for by the Fund. No one can replace a lost father or husband but through its financial support and empathy, the Fund provides a backbone of solace in this darkest of situations. By virtue of this fact, every time our soldiers step forward into the breach, they do so confident in the knowledge that should they fall in the service of this country, the Fund has their back, and will continue to take care of that which is most precious to them. -

MOTION - G OVERNOR OF WESTERN AUSTRALIA Retirement - Appreciation HON GEOR(;E CASH (North Metropolitan - Leader of the Opposition) [3.33 pm] - by leave: i move, without notice - That following the retirement on 30 September 1989 of the Governor of Western Australia, Professor Gordon Reid, this House conveys its appreciation to Professor Gordon Reid and Mrs Ruth Reid for the outstanding service they have extended to the people of Western Australia during their term in viceregal office and for the gracious manner in which they have worked to protect and enhance the dignity and respect that the position of Governor should hold under our Westminster system of Parliament. I thank the House for granting me leave on this occasion. The reason I have moved this motion today is that it is the first day the Parliament has returned after a two week recess since the retirement of Professor Gordon Reid as Governor of Western Australia. Members will be aware that Professor Reid was appointed Governor of Western Australia in 1984 and retired on 30 September 1989. It is true that he has retired as a result of ill health, something that we have raised in this House before and about which I have spoken to wish him well in his recovery from his present illness. Professor Reid was a special person in the role of Governor of Western Australia. If we look at Governors this State has had in recent times, in general terms they were people who had been born overseas. -
