  • 19. Liberty Square
    19. Liberty Square Liberty Square was named by the Darwin Town Council in June 1919 to commemorate the ‘Darwin Rebellion’ of 17 December 1918. That rebellion, which culminated in a protest directed at Government House by hundreds of workers on this site, and the unrest leading to it, resulted in a 1919 Royal Commission into the Administration of the Northern Territory conducted by Justice Norman Kirkwood Ewing (1870-1928). On the western side of Liberty Square is a memorial cairn at the place where the sub-sea cable from Banjowangie (Banyuwangi) Indonesia was joined with the Overland Telegraph Line to revolutionise communications in Australia on 20 November 1871. Towards the eastern side is a plinth and plaque commemorating the scientific achievement of Pietro ‘Commendatore’ Baracchi who, in collaboration with colleagues in Singapore and Banjowangie, established true longitude of Port Darwin and other Australian colonial and New Zealand capital cities in 1883 in the grounds of the Port Darwin Post Office and Telegraphic Station (now Parliament House). On the eastern side near the Supreme Court is a Banyan tree, which is valued by the community as a remnant of the original Darwin foreshore vegetation. It is over 200 years old and was the congregation point for Larrakia youths prior to ceremonies that took place under the nearby Tamarind tree. Liberty Square was the site for the original Darwin Cenotaph, which is now located on the old Darwin Oval on the Esplanade. History Sub-sea Telegraph Cables From the 1850s telegraph technology was very quickly taken up by the Australian colonies, building networks across their own territories, and then soon connecting to each other.

  • CHANCELLOR, I Have the Honor to Present to You for the Award of The
    CHANCELLOR, I have the honor to present to you for the award of the degree of Doctor of Laws, Honoris Causa, The Honorable Acting Justice Brian Frank Martin, Officer of the Order of Australia, and Member of the Order of the British Empire. The award will recognise outstanding leadership, service and achievement, particularly in the fields of the law and local government and in respect of the general advancement of the Northern Territory community as a whole. Brian Martin was born at Lithgow in New South Wales in 1936. He went to school in Lithgow and then, in 1953, he began legal studies through the Solicitors’ Admission Board. In 1959 he was admitted to practice as a solicitor of the Supreme Court of New South Wales. He then began practice in Sydney. In 1963 he was seeking an opportunity to practice in a small community where he might gain broader experience. He saw an advertisement seeking a lawyer who would come to Alice Springs to work with Ian Barker, then the town’s only legal practitioner. Brian Martin applied for and won the job, came to Alice Springs and before long was invited to become a partner in the practice which became known as Barker and Martin. When Ian Barker moved to Darwin in 1971 the practice became Martin and Partners. Brian Martin had married Lorraine Henstock in April 1963. The Martins at first intended that they might stay in Alice Springs for only a few years and then return to Sydney. However, as they became increasingly enmeshed with the Alice Springs community their departure was delayed, then deferred indefinitely.

  • 'It's Not Whether You Win Or Lose …' Chief Justice Robert S French 14 August 2010, Darwin
    Northern Territory Bar Association Annual Dinner 'It's Not Whether You Win or Lose …' Chief Justice Robert S French 14 August 2010, Darwin Your Excellency the Administrator the Hon Tom Pauling, President Raelene Webb, Chief Justice Brian Martin, Chief Justice-Elect Trevor Riley, your Honours, ladies and gentlemen: As we are all only too aware, there is a federal election next week. There has been endless and repetitious discussion in the media about it. So much so that one is reminded of the slogan used by Roy Slaven and HG Nelson for their This Sporting Life program: 'When too much sport is barely enough'. Thinking of HG Nelson led me to think of a simpler electoral time in the Northern Territory of the 1920s, when the Territory was voteless but not voiceless in the federal parliament. Its voice was Harold George Nelson. In an article in the Northern Territory Times & Gazette of November 19251, Thomas Nelson, described, tongue in cheek, as a 'poet laureate', was reported to have circulated a pamphlet attaching a song to be sung for HG Nelson MHR, when passing through Two Mile on his way to Darwin. The pamphlet referred to arrangements made for as many children as possible living in the Two Mile area to take part, by kind permission of their parents, in a welcome for Mr Nelson MHR. Each child was to sing the song. Each would have a small flag with the letter 'N' on it so that when the train arrived at Two Mile there would be waving of the flags and ______________________ 1 JA Porter, 'Thomas Nelson [Poet Laureate]', Northern Territory Times and Gazette (Darwin) 20 November 1925, at 4.

  • And Type Media Release Title
    Melioidosis Melioidosis is a very serious disease and this information acts as a timely reminder for people with diabetes who are more prone to infection with melioidosis. During the ‘wet season’ the threat of contracting Melioidosis greatly increases. What is Melioidosis? Melioidosis is a disease caused by bacteria called Burkholderia pseudomallei. These bacteria live deep in the soil during the ‘dry season’ and come to the top during the’wet season’ to be commonly found in surface water and mud, and may become airborne. Melioidosis infections are more common in the Northern Territory during the ‘wet season’ and similarly in other tropical climates such as Northern Queensland, the Kimberley Region of Western Australia and South East Asia. How can you get Melioidosis? The disease is contracted from the bacteria that cause Melioidosis entering the body via cuts, abrasions and sores in the skin. Melioidosis can also be contracted by the inhalation of dust or droplets and ingestion of contaminated water, which is very rare. Though Melioidosis has been found among farm animals, it does not usually spread from animal to humans or person to person. Who is most at risk of getting Melioidosis? People who have one or more of the following conditions are more susceptible to infection; diabetes, kidney disease, cancer, lung disease, alcoholism, people who are on steroid therapy, also people on immunosuppressive therapy. Healthy people who work in muddy soil without good hand and feet protection are also at risk. Diabetes patients are still number one for susceptibility to contracting melioidosis. A study in 2005 of the risk in patients with melioidosis from various factors is given in the table below.

  • Harmful Use of Alcohol in Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Communities
    HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES STANDING COMMITTEE ON INDIGENOUS AFFAIRS: Harmful use of alcohol in Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities Department of the Prime Minister and Cabinet response to questions on notice Hansard Proof Transcript page 6: Referring to income management: is there any evidence that you will be having regard to, an evaluation, that will guide the 'what comes next'? Response: Several evaluations of income management have been conducted and the following evaluations are underway: • Place-based Income Management in Greater Shepparton (Victoria), Logan and Rockhampton (Queensland), Playford (South Australia) and Bankstown (New South Wales); • Voluntary Income Management in the Anangu Pitjantjatjara Yankunytjatjara (APY) Lands; and • New Income Management in the Northern Territory. More information about each evaluation can be found on the Department of Social Services website. It should be noted that due dates of reports are a guide only, and the public release of reports is a decision for Government. The Income Management Evaluation and Review fact sheet is at Attachment A. The Government will consider the longer-term direction for income management policy guided by the outcomes of the McClure report on Welfare Reform, the Forrest Review of Indigenous Training and Employment Programmes, the evaluations, as well as other relevant data. There are various measures of income management currently operating in a number of locations. In this year’s Budget the Government provided $101.1 million in 2014-15 to extend income management in existing locations for one year. This will continue income management in the Northern Territory, and in trial sites in Perth and the Kimberley region, Laverton, and Ngaanyatjarra Lands of Western Australia and APY Lands in South Australia.

    MELIOIDOSIS Melioidosis is a very serious disease. People with diabetes are more prone to infection with Meliodosis. During the ‘wet season’ the threat of contracting Melioidosis greatly increases. What is Melioidosis? It is a disease caused by bacteria called Burkholeria pseudomallei. These bacteria live deeply in the soil during the dry season and come to the top during the wet season to be found in surface water and mud and may become airborne. Melioidosis often causes pneumonia but can also affect other parts of the body. Meliodosis infections are more common in the Northern Territory and similarly in other tropical climates such as Northern Queensland, the Kimberley Region of Western Australia and South East Asia. How can you get Meliodosis? The disease is contracted from this bacteria entering the body via cuts, abrasions and sores on the skin or through inhalation when soil gets stirred up by the wind. Who is most at risk of getting Melioidosis? Those with pre-existing conditions that impair the body’s immune stystem: • Diabetes • Kidney disease • Chronic lung disease • Cancer and/or immunosuppressive treatments • People who consume large amounts of alcohol including those that binge drink In 2018/19 there were 42 cases in the Northern Territory, most between the ages of 35 and 65 years. Over the past few years 10 percent of infections were fatal. What are the symptoms of Melioidosis? Symptoms include fevers, coughing, shortness of breath, tiredness, abdominal pain, urinary symptoms, skin ulcers and sometimes confusion and headaches. Sores that do not heal well should also be checked for Melioidosis.
