MINISTERIAL STATEMENT Retirement and Superannuation Entitlements, Corrupt Public Officers Hon. M. J. AHERN (Landsborough—Premier and Treasurer and Minister for the Arts) (10.06 a.m.), by leave: The Government proposes to take two initiatives to address the matter of superannuation payments to public officers who may have cormptly used their positions of tmst and responsibility. Firstly, legislation will be brought down in the current session to defer the retirement of such police officers and public servants. The legislation will provide that a notice of retirement from an office held by an officer furnished by the officer at any time subsequent to 19 April 1988 shall not take effect as a retirement of its own force or be deemed to have so taken effect and the retirement thereby notified shall not be effective untU it has been approved by the Governor in Council. Where an officer of the police or public service is suspended from duty because of conduct that suggests that he has been cormpt in his discharge of duties of any office held by him, or he has abused any office held by him, or he has knowingly neglected to discharge the duties of any office held by him, then it is not competent to the officer to retire from the office held by him. Any Act or law that may require an officer to retire because he has attained a particular age or otherwise does not apply to the officer. Secondly, the Government proposes to enact a Public Officials Abuse of Office (Disentitlement of Superannuation and Pension Benefits) Bill. The provisions are— • This scheme is designed for all—all—who hold an office of profit under the Crown or who receive superannuation funds or benefits from the public purse. • Upon a conviction, the prosecutor will seek an order of the court against the public official who, having retired from public office, is convicted of an indictable offence under Chapters 8, 13 or 16 of the Criminal Code which was committed whilst a holder of public office (some parts of Chapters 8, 13 or 16 are irrelevant and will not be included in the provisions of the Bill). • The court may order that the sum of money which represents the difference between the amount received by the public official and the amount he would have received had he resigned his office at the date of the commission of an offence be refunded to the Crown and enforceable as a debt due and owing to the Crown. • To overcome the problem of adversely affecting the rights of a spouse of such an official, the forfeiture should be discretionary, the court being able to hear Ministerial Sutement 19 April 1988 5955 third parties who may be affected by a forfeiture order and take into account in a similar manner to the Family Court the contribution made by that spouse to the accumulation of superannuation. • In order to avoid the criticism that payments may be made to a retiree and concealed or gifted, the provisions of the Commonwealth Proceeds of Crime Act as they relate to tracing and securing "tainted property" should apply; that is, unless the transfer of money/property takes place on a bona fide basis and for valuable consideration, then the property may be obtained from the hands of third parties. Provisions to lift the corporate veil may also be necessary. It has always been my view that a person is innocent until proven guilty. With this in mind, this seems to be the most fair and equitable method of dealing with this complex issue. In effect, it means that a person who conceals his crime untU after resignation does not gain an advantage by so doing. Any unfaimess could be overcome by the discretion of the court and the discretion of the Attomey to protect the interests of third parties such as spouses and family. MINISTERIAL STATEMENT Fitzgerald Commission of Inquiry; Alleged Interference by Former Premier and Treasurer, Sir Joh Bjelke-Petersen Hon. W. A. M. GUNN (Somerset—Deputy Premier, Minister for Public Works, Main Roads and Expo and Minister for Police) (10.11 a.m.), by leave: Following a statement made by the Premier, Mr Ahern, to this House last Thursday conceming an attempt by the former Premier and Treasurer, Sir Joh Bjelke-Petersen, to interfere with the Fitzgerald commission of inquiry, I tender the following information for honourable members. The basis of this information has already been made known to the Fitzgerald commission of inquiry by me. To my knowledge, there were two occasions last year when the former Premier and Treasurer, Sir Joh Bjelke-Petersen, attempted to interfere with the commission of inquiry. It must be pointed out, for the record, that in initial discussions following the ABC Four Corners program when I put it to Sir Joh that there should be an inquiry, he was supportive of it. The first occasion on which his reservations conceming it came to my attention was on the evening of 17 May 1987 at Roma when Cabinet was there for a country Cabinet meeting. At that stage, it had been decided in principle to hold an independent inquiry headed by a senior legal practitioner. On the evening in question, after the barbecue function, Sir Joh indicated to the Minister for Justice and Attomey-General, Mr Clauson, and myself that he would like to discuss the matter with us. He invited us to have a late dinner with him at the Overlander Motel. On our arrival at the motel's dining room, Sir Joh indicated to us to sit either side of him. Some of his staff were also at the table. He said words like, "I'm greatly concemed about this inquiry. I don't think it's a good idea at aU." I explained that the allegations that had been made had been around for a long time, hanging over the heads of several Police Ministers. He said words like, "Well, you've got a tiger by the tail and it'll end up biting you." I said my view was that it would bite us if we did not do anything about it. Sir Joh then said words to the effect that if he had had his way, it would not have begun. I replied to the effect that if he wanted to interfere with it at that point, I would resign the Police portfolio and he could find another Police Minister. I noticed that during this rather strained conversation, at least some of the staff members had left the table. Mr Clauson and I had some discussions in my room following this dinner, after which he retumed to his motel. 5956 19 April 1988 Leave to Move Motion Without Notice At that stage, there was speculation about who Cabinet would appoint to head the inquiry, and we were mindful of advice that preferably it should not be a serving judge. Subsequently, in a submission dated 25 May 1987, which was considered by Cabinet on 26 May, I, as Acting Premier and Treasurer, and Mr Clauson announced that Mr G.

  • The Importance of Forest Protected Areas to Drinking Water
    The importance of forest protected areas to drinking water RunningPure A research report by the World Bank / WWF Alliance for Forest Conservation and Sustainable Use Running Pure Running Pure: The importance of forest protected areas to drinking water A research report for the World Bank / WWF Alliance for Forest Conservation and Sustainable Use Written and edited by Nigel Dudley and Sue Stolton With major research and contributions by Rachel Asante Owusu, Ahmet Birsel, David Cassells, José Courrau, Lawrence Hamilton, Sedat Kalem, Wang Luan Keng, Leonardo Lacerda, Yıldıray Lise, Stefano Pagiola, Sara Scherr and Claudio Sericchio Published August 2003 ISBN 2-88085-262-5 © World Bank/WWF Alliance for Forest Conservation and Sustainable Use Cover design HMD, UK 1 Running Pure Preface Three years ago, WWF and IUCN's World Commission on Protected Areas organised a conference on management effectiveness of protected areas in Bangkok. One of its major conclusions was that, if protected areas are to be maintained in the long term, their essential roles and broader services, beyond biodiversity conservation, need to be emphasised. Many governments are finding it increasingly difficult to justify the maintenance of protected areas, if the wider benefits for local communities and the society at large cannot be demonstrated. This report represents an early attempt to develop wider arguments for protection, focusing on one narrow but important issue − the potential role of protected areas in helping to maintain water supply to major cities. It is a good time to look at the links between water and protected areas. The United Nations has proclaimed 2003 as the International Year of Freshwater, to help promote new and existing water resource initiatives.

  • Can Brisbane Remain a Subtropical City?
    Can Brisbane Remain a Subtropical City? Peter Spearritt As the seasons change, public and private gardens become a riot of colour. Winter shows the scarlet flags of poinsettia - Brisbane's emblem, which, if really a Mexican beauty, has made itself very much at home. The lavender glow of jacaranda and the gold of laburnum, the green umbrella of poinciana crowned with gleaming scarlet, the massed magnificence of magenta bougainvillea, the creamy blossoms and heavy tropical scent of frangipani filling the air with sweetness, the glare of cannas, the pink and white of bauhinia, the old-gold feathers of silky oak and the red and green of hibiscus - these are but a few of the array of colours. C. C. D. Brammall1 Brisbane has been relentlessly cleared since the first British soldiers and convicts set up at Redcliffe and then moved to the site we know as Brisbane today. As in other Australian colonies the new settlers were keen to grow crops and to exploit the timber both as a building material and later as a rich source of export income. While early explorers and botanists recorded the richness of the vegetation most new settlers saw the landscape as a resource to be exploited, not a pristine environment to be treated with respect. Today Brisbane is the product of land booms and busts, with houses in the inner suburbs still being predominantly of timber and tin, many raised to catch the breeze and to create a cool under house environment. This is the Brisbane celebrated in autobiographies and novels, from David Malouf's 12 Edmonstone Street (1986) to the musings of many younger novelists.
