Page | 1 ADDRESSING HOMELESSNESS CONFERENCE Conference Program The Dunstan Foundation is dedicated to ending inequity and social disadvantage across our society. It is a non-profit and politically neutral organisation. The Foundation promotes academic research, public debate and progressive social reform with a view to influencing policy within government, and the private and not- for-profit sectors. It aims to bring these reforms to implementation through collaborative ventures. Its current strategic plan has a focus on homelessness, mental illness, unemployment, and land degradation. The Foundation was established in 1999 to further Don Dunstan's social reform legacy. It partners with The University of Adelaide and Flinders University, and is supported by the South Australian State Government. Sponsors The conference organisers would like to thank the following organisations who generously provided sponsorship funds to support this conference: Government of South Australia Housing SA Wyatt Trust Support Us The Dunstan Foundation achieves a great deal for its size. It continues to have high aspirations to instigate substantial social reform to maximise benefit.

The Director of CHURP, Professor Andrew Beer, has played a crucial role in shaping the topic and content of this important conference. Almost a decade ago the Dunstan Foundation played a pivotal role in advancing research and policy on affordable housing with Dunstan Fellow, Professor Julian Disney who, along with others, developed the key elements of the National Affordable Housing Agreement, now known as the National Partnership Agreement on Homelessness (NPAH). This agreement was adopted by the state and Commonwealth Governments at the Council of Australian Governments’ (COAG) in 2008 and provides the framework for the states and the Commonwealth government to work together to improve housing affordability and homelessness outcomes for Australians. In March 2014, the Commonwealth Government pledged $115 million to extend the agreement with the states, which was due to expire at the end of June. The uncertainty created by the only temporary renewal of the agreement, however, puts at risk the prevention-based approach that has been developed and established over many years. Indeed at Ministerial meetings in 2012 and 2013, the COAG Select Council on Housing and Homelessness reaffirmed its commitment to a future long term national agreement but stressed the “importance of developing a strong evidence base for future policy priorities to ensure homelessness strategies are effectively targeted to achieve the best outcomes”. The Dunstan Foundation again hopes to play a pivotal role in encouraging and finding a new plan of action in the areas of homelessness and affordable housing. The Dunstan Foundation, along with CHURP and conference sponsors, hope that the different models of homelessness discussed in this conference will assist in the implementation of effective strategies to achieve desired outcomes demonstrated by well documented evidence. It is hoped that this will assist the community sector in successfully gaining traditional government funding through contracts and also in gaining new funding through sources such as social impact grants. In combination with this conference the Dunstan Foundation has convened a Round Table of leaders and decision makers in the homelessness and affordable housing sector, to start a conversation and to gain a shared understanding and view of the future, including further collaborative ventures to reduce homelessness. The Dunstan Foundation hopes to continue providing an independent, non-partisan environment for these discussions to occur so that they can influence future policy and practice.

  • Premier Jay Weatherill News Release
    News Release Premier Jay Weatherill Tuesday , 3 January 2015 Maher joins Cabinet as Close takes Education and Child Development Kyam Maher is the new Minister for Manufacturing and Innovation and Minister Susan Close will take on the Education and Child Development portfolio following a swearing in ceremony at Government House. Premier Jay Weatherill said today’s reshuffle was necessitated by Monday’s retirement of Jennifer Rankine from the Ministry. “Beyond the replacement of Minister Rankine it is essentially a fine-tuning of portfolios,” he said. Other changes include Deputy Premier John Rau taking on the new portfolio of Child Protection Reform meaning he takes responsibility for responding to the findings of the Royal Commission into Families SA and the Coroner’s findings from the Chloe Valentine inquest. Sustainability, Environment and Conservation Minister Ian Hunter gains the new portfolio of Climate Change while Minister Close retains the Public Sector portfolio and takes on Education and Child Development. Member for Reynell Katrine Hildyard joins executive Government as a Parliamentary Secretary to the Premier. Mr Maher will also take on the responsibility as Minister for Automotive Transformation and Minister for Aboriginal Affairs and Reconciliation. Mr Weatherill welcomed Mr Maher to the Cabinet table saying he has demonstrated acuity on committees and as a member of the Legislative Council. “Kyam took up a parliamentary secretary role last year and is one of the crop of young talented individuals ready to step up,” Mr Weatherill said. “He is former State Secretary of the Labor Party and was also a chief of staff to former Minister Terry Roberts who held the portfolios of Regional Affairs, Aboriginal Affairs and Correctional Services.

(Continued from 12 May 2021.) The Hon. S.S. MARSHALL (Dunstan—Premier) (19:31): I rise to speak on the Voluntary Assisted Dying Bill. I support the second reading of this bill. I have supported legislation for assisted dying when it has been before this house previously. I do so again, not because I would avail myself of such laws but because I do not believe that I can deny other South Australians the right to make that choice. In providing this legal option at the end of a person's life, this bill establishes a range of mandatory protections, approvals and reviews to prevent exploitation. I have every respect for those who do not support voluntary assisted dying. I understand their views and their concerns. I have considered the deep and sensitive moral, ethical, legal, medical and professional considerations associated with this question, but it is also important to recognise that with the passage of these laws we will not be entering on the so-called slippery slope.
