History last updated 12 August 2010 Tasman Island Nature Reserve Date Description 12 April 1904 The island known as ‘Tasman Island’ situated to the south east of Cape Pillar, Tasman Peninsula, was except from sale and reserved for the purpose of a lighthouse reserve, and was taken to have been so declared under the Crown Lands Act 1903. 22 December 1993 108 hectares of land (indicated on CPR Plan 2790; LD 1318) was proclaimed to be a conservation area and a State reserve and given the name Tasman Island Nature Reserve under the National Parks and Wildlife Act 1970 (Statutory Rules 270 of 1993). 30 April 1999 On commencement of the relevant sections of the Regional Forest Agreement (Land Classification) Act 1999, Tasman Island Nature Reserve was incorporated into Tasman National Park (CPR Plan 4215) under the National Parks and Wildlife Act 1970 .

    PARLIAMENT OF TASMANIA HOUSE OF ASSEMBLY REPORT OF DEBATES Thursday 12 November 2020 REVISED EDITION Thursday 12 November 2020 The Speaker, Ms Hickey, took the Chair at 10 a.m., acknowledged the Traditional People and read Prayers. QUESTIONS Launceston General Hospital - Commission of Inquiry into Child Abuse Claims Ms WHITE question to MINISTER for HEALTH, Ms COURTNEY [10.03 a.m.] On what date were you first made aware of the series of horrific allegations of child sexual abuse involving nurse Jim Griffin at the Launceston General Hospital? ANSWER Madam Speaker, I can inform the House and the member that advice was provided on 31 July 2019; that the LGH had received advice earlier that day that a member of staff was subject to immediate suspension of his registration to work with vulnerable people. I was advised that day. Launceston General Hospital - Commission of Inquiry into Child Abuse Claims Ms WHITE question to MINISTER for HEALTH, Ms COURTNEY [10.04 a.m.] You have clearly failed to grasp the magnitude of Jim Griffin's crimes and the deep impact they have had on the community. You clearly do not feel responsible for your inaction and you do not want to be held accountable either. Yesterday you were asked why you waited a year - and now we have heard perhaps even longer since you knew - to establish an independent inquiry into the horrific child abuse perpetrated by former Launceston General nurse, Jim Griffin. You have attempted to hide behind police investigations as a reason for your inaction when those investigations ended in October last year when Jim Griffin died.
