Building Momentum Chapter 15 Culture, sport, tourism Page 208 15. Culture, sport and tourism STRATEGIC OBJECTIVE Deliver world class institutions to maintain strong cultural and sporting sectors and support the visitor economy. SNAPSHOT • NSW is home to close to 40 per cent of Australia’s creative industry and music and performing arts jobs. Sydney is headquarters for most arts and cultural businesses. The number of international tourists to NSW is expected to grow 150 per cent over the next 20 years to 10 million annual visitors. • The State Infrastructure Strategy Update 2014 identified that NSW had fallen behind other states and global cities in its investment in cultural, sporting and tourism infrastructure and that a backlog of renewal and maintenance exists. • In 2014, the Government accepted Infrastructure NSW’s recommendations to prepare a 20-year Cultural Infrastructure Strategy, set aside $1.6 billion for a major sports Stadia Strategy, $600 million for cultural infrastructure and $300 million for local sports facilities in regional NSW, and a further $300 million in a Regional Growth – Environment and Tourism Fund. • In October 2016, Infrastructure NSW submitted the Cultural Infrastructure Strategy to the Premier. The NSW Government has since undertaken consultation on the priorities for cultural infrastructure investment to develop a long-term cultural infrastructure plan. • The Government has acted on some of Infrastructure NSW recommendations. Investments underway include the Sydney Modern Project, Stage 1 of the Sydney Opera House renewal program and the Walsh Bay Arts and Cultural Precinct, grants under the Regional Cultural Fund and the finalisation of a business case for the relocation of the Museum of Applied Arts and Sciences to Parramatta. • The Government has proceeded with investment in the Western Sydney Stadium, a rectangular stadium in Parramatta seating 30,000 people to support a range of sports including rugby league, football and rugby union, as well as a range of events and community uses. • Tourism infrastructure investments are also underway, including regional tourism programs funded by Restart NSW. A NSW Cruise Development Plan has also been prepared RESPONSE Summary of key recommendations Cultural infrastructure • Publish and implement a NSW Government response to the recommendations of the 2016 Cultural Infrastructure Strategy. Sport infrastructure • Develop a Sport Infrastructure Strategy and a whole-of-sector investment framework. • Deliver community sport infrastructure programs • Complete final business cases to inform investment in major stadia. Tourism infrastructure • Develop a Tourism Infrastructure Strategy to guide investment that will support the new Regional Economic Development Strategies and visitor economy targets. • Prepare a strategic business case to assess options for providing additional cruise berthing capacity in Sydney. • Encourage the Commonwealth Government to review regulatory settings to improve aviation operations in Sydney.

    Leading � rec�very Annual Report 2019–2020 TARONGA ANNUAL REPORT 2019–2020 A SHARED FUTURE � WILDLIFE AND PE�PLE At Taronga we believe that together we can find a better and more sustainable way for wildlife and people to share this planet. Taronga recognises that the planet’s biodiversity and ecosystems are the life support systems for our own species' health and prosperity. At no time in history has this been more evident, with drought, bushfires, climate change, global pandemics, habitat destruction, ocean acidification and many other crises threatening natural systems and our own future. Whilst we cannot tackle these challenges alone, Taronga is acting now and working to save species, sustain robust ecosystems, provide experiences and create learning opportunities so that we act together. We believe that all of us have a responsibility to protect the world’s precious wildlife, not just for us in our lifetimes, but for generations into the future. Our Zoos create experiences that delight and inspire lasting connections between people and wildlife. We aim to create conservation advocates that value wildlife, speak up for nature and take action to help create a future where both people and wildlife thrive. Our conservation breeding programs for threatened and priority wildlife help a myriad of species, with our program for 11 Legacy Species representing an increased commitment to six Australian and five Sumatran species at risk of extinction. The Koala was added as an 11th Legacy Species in 2019, to reflect increasing threats to its survival. In the last 12 months alone, Taronga partnered with 28 organisations working on the front line of conservation across 17 countries.

  • SINGLE DOSE PHARMACOKINETICS of AZITHROMYCIN in BALL PYTHONS (Python Regius)
    SINGLE DOSE PHARMACOKINETICS OF AZITHROMYCIN IN BALL PYTHONS (Python regius) Rob L. Coke, DVM,1* Robert P. Hunter, MS, PhD,2 Ramiro Isaza, MS, DVM,1 James W. Carpenter, MS, DVM,1 David Koch, MS,2 and Marie Goatley, BS2 1Department of Clinical Sciences and the 2Department of Anatomy and Physiology, College of Veterinary Medicine, Kansas State University, Manhattan, KS 66506 USA Abstract Azithromycin is a new sub-class of macrolide antibiotics classified as an azalide. This antimicrobial has a similar mechanism of action to the other macrolides (i.e., erythromycin) by binding to the 50S ribosomal subunit.2 Azithromycin provides broad-spectrum antibiosis against gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria.2 It also has the ability to obtain sustained drug concentrations in tissues much greater than the corresponding plasma concentration.1,3 This study determined the pharmacokinetics of azithromycin (Zithromax®, Pfizer Inc., New York, NY 10017 USA) in ball pythons (Python regius), a species that is representative of the Boidae family. Snakes were administered azithromycin intravenously (i.v.) to determine distribution and orally (p.o.) to determine bioavailability and absorption. Seven ball pythons (two males, five females), weighing approximately 0.67-0.96 kg, were used in this experiment. Using a crossover design, each snake was given a single 10 mg/kg i.v. dose of azithromycin via cardiocentesis. For the oral study, each snake was dosed at 10 mg/kg using the same i.v. azithromycin preparation. Blood samples were collected prior to dosing and at 1, 3, 6, 12, 24, 48, 72, and 96 hr post-azithromycin administration.

The Speaker read the prayer and acknowledgement of country. [Notices of motions given.] Bills GAS LEGISLATION AMENDMENT (MEDICAL GAS SYSTEMS) BILL 2020 First Reading Bill introduced on motion by Mr Kevin Anderson, read a first time and printed. Second Reading Speech Mr KEVIN ANDERSON (Tamworth—Minister for Better Regulation and Innovation) (12:16:12): I move: That this bill be now read a second time. I am proud to introduce the Gas Legislation Amendment (Medical Gas Systems) Bill 2020. The bill delivers on the New South Wales Government's promise to introduce a robust and effective licensing regulatory system for persons who carry out medical gas work. As I said on 18 June on behalf of the Government in opposing the Hon. Mark Buttigieg's private member's bill, nobody wants to see a tragedy repeated like the one we saw at Bankstown-Lidcombe Hospital. As I undertook then, the Government has taken the steps necessary to provide a strong, robust licensing framework for those persons installing and working on medical gases in New South Wales. To the families of John Ghanem and Amelia Khan, on behalf of the Government I repeat my commitment that we are taking action to ensure no other families will have to endure as they have. The bill forms a key part of the Government's response to licensed work for medical gases that are supplied in medical facilities in New South Wales.
