Unauthorised use of this document in any form whatsoever is prohibited. REVISION AUTHOR REVIEWED SIGNATURE DATE OF ISSUE 1.0 P. JOLLY H. TOHILL 26-10-2020 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The subject site; 70 Park Road, Yeronga (also described as Lot 3 on SP300888) forms the Yeronga Priority Development Area (PDA). The PDA is approximately three hectares and includes parts of Villa Street and Park Road in Yeronga. The redevelopment of the site facilitates the construction of a new community centre for Yeronga as well as opportunities to support residential development, small-scale retail and improved active transport. This report has been prepared by Wolter Consulting Group on behalf of Economic Development Qld in support of the proposed development to conduct operational works for clearing of significant vegetation over the land. The subject site has undergone extensive testing and investigation during demolition works. Through testing it was identified that a number of areas on the land parcel were underlain by construction and demolition (C&D) waste, which contained fibro fragments. The fibro fragments were tested and confirmed to contain Asbestos Containing Materials (ACM).

  • AMICUS JUNE 2020 Vol 48 No 2 Journal of the BSHS Past Students’ Association Inc
    AMICUS JUNE 2020 Vol 48 No 2 Journal of the BSHS Past Students’ Association Inc. David H Phillips, Class of 1945, donated his original renderings of the Normal School and the “Red Brick Building” to the school on the occasion of the 75th Anniversary of Brisbane State High School in 1996. These watercolour versions were presented to Barry Irwin, BSHS 75th Anniversary Convenor. IMPORTANT NOTICE How can you help the BSHS PSA support the school? The printing and posting of AMICUS to past students is the PSA’s major annual expense. These funds would be better utilised for projects for the benefit of the school and students. In recent times, these projects have included: the contribution to the Innovation Studio the fitout of the school museum the maintenance and upgrading of the school museum the Premiership Honour Board the Legends Honour Board the PSA “Spirit of State High” trophy More could be done with your help! The digitising of all school magazines from 1921 to 2019, which will enable an online search function, may be our next project if we can minimise our printing and posting costs. In order to reduce this significant cost, the PSA Executive proposes to introduce the digital version of AMICUS to all PSA members. All past students who receive AMICUS via post are requested to advise their email address to: [email protected] to enable this proposal to be implemented. THANKS A sincere “thank you” to those past students who have: renewed their financial membership of the PSA commented favourably on recent AMICUS articles donated valuable memorabilia to the school museum.

Supported by a strong media campaign against the policy, the Cabinet has stepped back dramatically from affirming the A.L.P.'s long-standing commitment to support for East Timorese self-determination. There are clear signs that unless there is concerted support for the policy from within the Party and outside it, the policy will not be implemented.

  • 'No More Labour for the Knight: an Overview of Sir Jack Egerton's
    Johannah Bevis, ‘No more labour for the knight: An overview of Sir Jack Egerton’s leadership’ Centre for the Government of Queensland Summer Scholar Journal , 3, 2012-13. Sir John (Jack) Alfred Roy Egerton was a formidable figure within the Queensland Labour Movement from the 1950s through to the 1970s. Better known as Jack Egerton, he is described by political historian, Ross Fitzgerald, as ‘one of the most colourful and influential characters in the history of the Labor Party in Queensland’.1 Egerton was an active member of the Queensland and Australian trade union and labour movement in various capacities; he became State Secretary of the Boilermakers Society in 1943, and then served in contemporaneous roles as President of the Queensland Trades and Labour Council (QTLC) from 1967 to 1976 and as President of the ALP Queensland Central Executive (QCE) from 1968 to 1976.2 Yet his leadership in these roles has largely been overshadowed by the knighthood he received in the latter part of his career. Through his dual positions, Egerton increased the influence of the QTLC within the Queensland ALP, which gained him credibility and clout on a federal level as an ALP powerbroker. Over time he created a culture of leadership within the Queensland ALP that seemed unable to relate to an increasing diversity within its membership. Further, his career raised doubts over how much control an individual should accrue through simultaneous political positions. This paper first covers Egerton’s notorious ennoblement, before briefly detailing his background growing up in rural Queensland and his early career as a boilermaker.
