  • New South Wales Parliament Legislative Assembly Land And
    New South Wales Parliament Legislative Assembly Land and Property Information NSW (Authorised Transaction) Bill 2016 20 September 2016 Ms TRISH DOYLE (Blue Mountains): I speak in debate on the Land and Property Information NSW (Authorised Transaction) Bill 2016. The bill represents yet another instance of this conservative Government frantically rifling through pages of the public estate in search of something else it can flog off. The land titling and registration system is one of the oldest and most important bureaucratic institutions in the colony of New South Wales. It has stood since 1863, when the Torrens title system came into being, and has evolved from the historic granting of land title in convict days to the modern, precise and reliable system that all citizens now rely upon to track the transfer of real property ownership in this State. Not only does it provide an essential public service and handle sensitive, valuable information on behalf of the citizens of this State, but also it returns a tidy profit to the coffers of the New South Wales Treasury. It is a sad fact of life that under Casino Mike's dictatorship, whenever it is discovered that a public sector office is generating some small profit to the taxpayer — Mr Lee Evans: Point of order: For several hours we have been listening to the ramblings of Labor members, but I will not accept the misuse of the Premier's title. Mr Assistant Speaker, I ask that you direct the member for Blue Mountains to use the Premier's correct title. The ASSISTANT SPEAKER: Order! I uphold the point of order.

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.

    Children’s Festival Organisation Inc. 2017 - 2018 ANNUAL REPORT ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING REVESBY WORKERS’ CLUB AGM29 July 2018 President’s Report I would like to start by acknowledging the traditional owners of this land and pay my respects to the elders past and present. I would also like to acknowledge the presence of the Advisory Committee and the Management Committee today. I warmly welcome you all to our AGM in this beautiful environment, thanks to the generosity of Revesby Workers' Club. It is with much pleasure that I present the President’s report for the year ended 31st May 2018 at our Annual General Meeting here today. It has been another great year of achievements. First of all, our Nineteenth Children’s Festival in the City of Canterbury-Bankstown on the 17th of September last year attracted thousands of participants, thanks to the tireless efforts of all involved. Our fifth Children’s Festival in the City of Sydney was also a huge success. This festival was again proclaimed the biggest event in the “Living in Harmony Festival 2018” staged by the City of Sydney. The Children’s Festival in Sydney was something to treasure for the international students working with us and for the tourists arriving in Sydney at the International Passenger Terminal. Hopefully the experience will inspire the students to continue community service wherever they live, whether it’s in Australia or in their home countries. May I congratulate Mai, Mark, and Kana and their respective teams for their magnificent effort in making our various events big successes. The details of our two festivals held during the year 2017-2018 can be found in the reports of our Chairpersons.

[Notices of motions given.] Private Members' Statements TRIBUTE TO SUPERINTENDENT JULIAN GRIFFITHS Ms ELENI PETINOS (Miranda) (12:13): I rise to discuss and farewell the outgoing commander from the Sutherland Shire Police Area Command, Superintendent Julian Griffiths. Our local media has publicised that Superintendent Griffiths has been moved from the Sutherland Shire Police Area Command into the St George Police Area Command. Those of us who have had the opportunity to work with the superintendent, and to know him well, are going to miss him dearly. Media reports have not captured that Superintendent Griffiths is a capable and competent commander who has always been dedicated to serving the local community. He has done that in his capacity as a superintendent of both the Sutherland Shire Local Area Command and the merged Sutherland Shire Police Area Command over the past six years. I was recently told a story about Superintendent Griffiths which highlights the depth of his care and the lengths that he has gone to for the community. It is about the recent fires in the western part of the shire, in Menai, Alfords Point and Barden Ridge.
