    JOINT STATEMENT Premier and Minister for the Arts The Honourable Annastacia Palaszczuk Minister for Education and Minister for Tourism, Major Events, Small Business and the Commonwealth Games The Honourable Kate Jones Premier welcomes direct flights from Shanghai to Brisbane Queensland has become the first Australian state to sign a Memorandum of Understanding with China Eastern Airlines in a landmark agreement set to deliver a $22 million tourism boost for the State, Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk announced today. Ms Palaszczuk said the agreement came off the back of a meeting she had with China Eastern during her trade trip in China last month. Minister for Tourism and Major Events, Kate Jones, signed the MOU in China overnight. Ms Palaszczuk said the agreement secured a new, year­round Shanghai­Brisbane direct service which will commence in November 2016 with three flights each week. “This new service is a win for tourism, bringing approximately 36,500 additional travellers and generating more than $22 million for the economy each year,” she said. “It comes in addition to a seasonal China Eastern service between Shanghai and Cairns providing access for up to 13,000 visitors each year to Tropical North Queensland, the state’s northern gateway to the Great Barrier Reef.” Minister Jones said the development underlined the Palaszczuk Government’s commitment to growing the Asian visitor market. “Chinese travellers represent Queensland’s largest international visitor market by expenditure, spending more than $833 million in the year to June 2015, an increase of 43% on the last financial year,” she said. “Queensland attracted 360,000 visitors from mainland China in 2014­15 and Tourism Research Australia forecasts China will overtake New Zealand as Australia’s dominant tourism market within five years.

  • Ii: Mary Alice Evatt, Modern Art and the National Art Gallery of New South Wales
    Cultivating the Arts Page 394 CHAPTER 9 - WAGING WAR ON THE ESTABLISHMENT? II: MARY ALICE EVATT, MODERN ART AND THE NATIONAL ART GALLERY OF NEW SOUTH WALES The basic details concerning Mary Alice Evatt's patronage of modern art have been documented. While she was the first woman appointed as a member of the board of trustees of the National Art Gallery of New South Wales, the rest of her story does not immediately suggest continuity between her cultural interests and those of women who displayed neither modernist nor radical inclinations; who, for example, manned charity- style committees in the name of music or the theatre. The wife of the prominent judge and Labor politician, Bert Evatt, Mary Alice studied at the modernist Sydney Crowley-Fizelle and Melbourne Bell-Shore schools during the 1930s. Later, she studied in Paris under Andre Lhote. Her husband shared her interest in art, particularly modern art, and opened the first exhibition of the Contemporary Art Society in Melbourne 1939, and an exhibition in Sydney in the same year. His brother, Clive Evatt, as the New South Wales Minister for Education, appointed Mary Alice to the Board of Trustees in 1943. As a trustee she played a role in the selection of Dobell's portrait of Joshua Smith for the 1943 Archibald Prize. Two stories thus merge to obscure further analysis of Mary Alice Evatt's contribution to the artistic life of the two cities: the artistic confrontation between modernist and anti- modernist forces; and the political career of her husband, particularly knowledge of his later role as leader of the Labor opposition to Robert Menzies' Liberal Party.

DNRMEAct • The Queensland Government is ready to have a conversation with the Australian Government and its new National Water Grid Authorityon on a range of water infrastructure proposals including the opportunity for further increasing regional connectivityRTI where it makes sense (e.g. available supply within responsible limits commensurate with Queensland Water Plans and demonstrated demand for the water). • This could include identifying opportunities to explore the concept of connecting bulk water storages to where there is a clear demand for water at a price commensurate with the costs providing the water.

    PALASZCZUK’S SECOND YEAR AN OVERVIEW OF 2016 ANN SCOTT HOWARD GUILLE ROGER SCOTT with cartoons by SEAN LEAHY Foreword This publication1 is the fifth in a series of Queensland political chronicles published by the TJRyan Foundation since 2012. The first two focussed on Parliament.2 They were written after the Liberal National Party had won a landslide victory and the Australian Labor Party was left with a tiny minority, led by Annastacia Palaszczuk. The third, Queensland 2014: Political Battleground,3 published in January 2015, was completed shortly before the LNP lost office in January 2015. In it we used military metaphors and the language which typified the final year of the Newman Government. The fourth, Palaszczuk’s First Year: a Political Juggling Act,4 covered the first year of the ALP minority government. The book had a cartoon by Sean Leahy on its cover which used circus metaphors to portray 2015 as a year of political balancing acts. It focussed on a single year, starting with the accession to power of the Palaszczuk Government in mid-February 2015. Given the parochial focus of our books we draw on a limited range of sources. The TJRyan Foundation website provides a repository for online sources including our own Research Reports on a range of Queensland policy areas, and papers catalogued by policy topic, as well as Queensland political history.5 A number of these reports give the historical background to the current study, particularly the anthology of contributions The Newman Years: Rise, Decline and Fall.6 Electronic links have been provided to open online sources, notably the ABC News, Brisbane Times, The Guardian, and The Conversation.

  • Premier and Minister for Trade the Honourable Annastacia Palaszczuk
    7/24/2020 Palaszczuk Govt secures more AFL teams and games for Cairns - The Queensland Cabinet and Ministerial Directory Premier and Minister for Trade The Honourable Annastacia Palaszczuk Friday, July 24, 2020 Palaszczuk Govt secures more AFL teams and games for Cairns Cairns will stage at least three AFL Premiership games this year and host two AFL teams for up to a month in a deal secured by the Palaszczuk Government that will inject millions of dollars into the city’s economy. Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk today confirmed the deal struck with the AFL to move two clubs to Cairns. “Due to the way Queenslanders have managed this health crisis, we can now focus on Queensland’s plan for economic recovery,” she said. “Queensland is now the home of Australian sport. We’ve worked hard to make sure that Cairns gets a piece of the action. “Having more teams and more games in Cairns will pump millions of dollars into the local economy and support jobs – helping us execute our plan for economic recovery.” Tourism Minister Kate Jones said major sporting events would be crucial to rebuilding Queensland’s economy and supporting local jobs. “Not only are we bringing AFL games back to Cairns but relocating two teams to the city for three to four weeks,” she said. “This will fill hotel rooms, create business for local suppliers and give a boost to the tourism economy. “Never before has Cairns hosted so many AFL games in one season so to be able to bring three games and possibly four to the city is a real coup.” Member for Cairns Michael Healy said the Palaszczuk Government would continue to work with the AFL to extract as much value as possible out of the deal for local businesses.

  • William Edwin Pidgeon Was Born in 1909 at Paddington, Sydney
    William Edwin Pidgeon (WEP) 1909- 1981 Page | 1 Summary Bill Pidgeon’s career spanned from the mid-1920s through the 1970s. He started out in the newspaper industry and quickly forged a name in the local Sydney press, known as “Wep”. In 1933 he helped create the dummy for The Australian Women’s Weekly with his friend and the magazine’s first editor, George Warnecke. Working for Consolidated Press he became well known throughout Australia for his political cartoons, comic strips, illustrations, his covers and war paintings for The Australian Women’s Weekly, which are now collectables today. However, Bill’s true passion was his painting and in January 1949 he resigned from Consolidated Press to focus on winning Australia’s most prestigious prize for portraiture, the Archibald Prize. Not only did he achieve that aim but he won the award three times. However, his earlier career always overshadowed the success of his painting with headlines such as “Cartoonist wins Archibald.” In 1956 he was diagnosed with glaucoma in both eyes and underwent a total of six operations on his eyes to remove cataracts and ultimately his eye lenses. By the 1970s he was deemed legally blind. The difficulties he faced with his eyesight were always kept very private for fear of losing valuable commissions. Shortly after Bill’s glaucoma diagnosis he was invited by the Romanian Government to visit Romania on a Cultural Exchange trip. It was his only trip overseas despite a yearning to see the works of the great masters of Europe since the late 1920s. In addition to Romania, Bill took the opportunity to visit Rome and Venice in Italy, Munich in Germany, Vienna and Budapest whilst in transit to Bucharest, Romania.
