  • The Great Property Crime Drop: a Regional Analysis
    NSW Bureau of Crime Statistics and Research Bureau Brief Issue paper no. 88 July 2013 The Great Property Crime Drop: A regional analysis Don Weatherburn and Jessie Holmes Aim: To describe and discuss regional variation between parts of NSW in the rate at which theft and robbery offences have fallen. Method: Percentage changes in rates of offending in robbery and various categories of theft were calculated for the period 2000 to 2012. Changes in the extent to which rates of crime across areas have become more similar were quantified by comparing the standard deviation in crime rates across areas in 2000 to the standard deviation in crime rates in 2012. Product moment calculations were used to measure (a) the extent to which areas with high crime rates in 2000 also had high crime rates in 2012 and (b) the extent to which areas with the highest crime rates in 2000 had the largest falls in crime in 2012. Results: The fall in property crime and robbery across NSW between 2000 and 2012 has been very uneven; being much larger in Sydney and other urban areas than in rural areas. The fall in theft offence rates ranges from 62 per cent in the Sydney Statistical Division (SD) to 5.9 per cent in the Northern SD. Similarly, the fall in robbery rates ranges from 70.8 per cent in the Sydney SD to 21.9 per cent in the Northern SD. In some areas some offences actually increased. The Murray, Northern, Murrumbidgee, North Western, Hunter and Central West SDs, for example, all experienced an increase in steal from a retail store.

  • Liberal Party of Australia, New South Wales Division Objection to Proposed Redistribution
    1 LIBERAL PARTY OF AUSTRALIA, NEW SOUTH WALES DIVISION OBJECTION TO PROPOSED REDISTRIBUTION 1. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 1.1. The Liberal Party of Australia, New South Wales Division (the “Liberal Party”) objects to the redistribution proposed by the Redistribution Committee for New South Wales. This objection is lodged with the Electoral Commission pursuant to section 69 of the Commonwealth Electoral Act 1918. 1.2. In summary the Liberal Party objects to the following: (a) Wentworth/Kingsford Smith/Sydney – the Liberal Party objects to the proposed boundaries between these three divisions. The primary basis for the objection is that these proposed boundaries do not give due consideration to community of interests within Wentworth and community of interests within Sydney. (b) Paterson/Newcastle – the Liberal Party objects to the proposed boundary between these two divisions. The primary basis for the objection is that the proposed boundary does not give due consideration to community of interests within Paterson, especially for the Port Stephens local government area. (c) Country New South Wales and western Sydney – the Liberal Party objects to the boundaries for the proposed divisions of Macquarie, Calare, Parkes and Parramatta (with consequential effects for some other proposed divisions in country New South Wales and western Sydney).The primary bases for the objections are that the proposed boundaries: (i) do not give due consideration to community of interests between Bathurst and Orange, 2 (ii) do not give due consideration to community of interests between the Blue Mountains and the Hawkesbury region, (iii) are based upon an erroneous conclusion about the strength of communities of interest between Bathurst area and the Blue Mountains, (iv) result in a division of Parkes which is far too large, and (v) split Parramatta CBD from the division of Parramatta.

    Pagewood: A garden suburb Contents Page 1 - Introduction Page 2 & 3 - Early History Page 4 & 5 & 6 - Notable Residents Page 7 - Sports and Recreation Page 8 - Population Page 9 - Fun Facts Page 10- References Introduction Pagewood is a suburb in southern Sydney and it is 8 kilometres south of Sydney CBD. It is mainly made up of industrial and residential areas. It has one school, a golf club and lots of beautiful gardens. Pagewood consists of 1,087 kilometres2. Most of the notable residents consist of authors, politicians, rugby league players and musicians. A number of sporting teams in Pagewood include a few golf clubs, a soccer club and well known rugby leagues called the South Sydney Rabbitohs and the Botany Rams. Early History Pagewood was originally planned as a garden suburb, similar to the neighbouring Daceyville. However, Pagewood was developed to provide sheltering after World War I when there was a shortage of land. The new suburb began developing in 1919 as an estate called the Monash Gardens. The suburb was named Pagewood in 1929 to honour Alderman Fred Page, who the Mayor of Botany Council in 1928. The National Studios was opened in 1935 for nearly 30 years. Australian and British films were produced here. In 1940, the site was bought by General Motors Holden, which operated a car manufacturing plant until 1981. In 1953, the Pagewood Rex Hotel (which was renamed the Pagewood Hotel in 2017), opened. In 1960, the council considered changing the suburb name to East Botany. Residents battled to retain the name, particularly since Botany was becoming an industrial area, while Pagewood retained its identity as a mainly residential area.
