  • UCI Track Cycling Nations Cup Newport – 22 - 25 April 2021
    Round # 1 – UCI Track Cycling Nations Cup Newport – 22 - 25 April 2021 GENERAL INFORMATION Newport is a vibrant, multi-cultural city steeped in a rich industrial heritage, where traditional industries sit alongside new electronics and financial service sectors. At the gateway of Wales, surrounded by stunning scenery and a growing international profile Newport may surprise you. Newport’s history dates back to a Celtic settlement 2000 years ago and the city's location at the mouth of the River Usk has attracted visitors for centuries. Caerleon, just a few miles from Newport, was also the site of a fortress of the 2nd (Augustan) Roman legion from the first century AD. The Normans settled in Newport and built a castle beside the river Usk in the 14th century, the remains of which you can see today. The discovery of the remains of a sea-going vessel in 2002 gives evidence of Newport as a centre of industry and trade in the medieval period. During the 19th century industrial revolution Newport expanded rapidly from a small seaport town to one of the most important places in the country for coal export and steel production and the town became known for its accessible modern docks. Newport is also home to the Newport Transporter Bridge, one of around 10 that remain is use throughout the world and one of only two operational transporter bridges in the UK. Global leaders in technology, manufacturing, distribution, financial services and public sector organisations are attracted to the city’s superb location. Over 2.69 million people visit the city annually and events are a key part of Newport having successfully delivered large global events including the Ryder Cup in 2010 and NATO summit in 2014.

  • Coronavirus Testing Expands at Shopping Centres
    Thursday, 30 April 2020 CORONAVIRUS TESTING EXPANDS AT SHOPPING CENTRES Six new mobile coronavirus testing sites across Melbourne will open today, as part of the Victorian Government’s blitz to test up to 100,000 people in two weeks. The new sites located at Bunnings West Footscray, Pacific Werribee, Pacific Epping, Watergardens Town Centre, Westfield Fountain Gate and Bayside Shopping Centre in Frankston are due to begin conducting tests this morning. It comes after four new mobile coronavirus testing sites opened yesterday at Chadstone, Doncaster, Highpoint and Northland shopping centres – bringing the total so far to 10. Minister for Health Jenny Mikakos encouraged Victorians with even the mildest symptoms to go get tested. Symptoms that should prompt people to get tested include fever, chills, shortness of breath, cough, sore throat, loss of sense of smell, or a runny nose. Even the most mild of symptoms could be a sign of coronavirus. The testing sites will be manned by doctors, nurses and pathology collection staff – to provide a one stop shop. The Victorian Government is working closely with conveniently located shopping centres who, as part of a broader industry effort, have offered to host mobile testing sites to ensure all relevant safety protocols are managed. Their support is critical and greatly appreciated. Additional sites in regional and suburban locations will come online in the coming days. People will need to bring their Medicare card, or if they don’t have one, at least one form of identification. This will ensure international students and other visitors can also be tested if required.

It contains a brief further statement by me plus an ACT Legislative Assembly Hansard detailing 2 petitions to the ACT Legislative Assembly which may be pertinent to the Committee's discussion with any ACT Government representatives. Dr Michael Crawford Community Attitudes to Wind Farms Dr Michael Crawford 14th May 2015 SENATE SELECT COMMITTEE ON WIND TURBINES SUBMISSION – COMMUNITY ATTITUDES Community Attitudes to Wind Farms It is common for wind farm proponents to cite surveys that claim support for wind farms gathered in vague terms and then purport to use such surveys to support the establishment of wind farms in specific locations. In fact many people have far more careful views about wind farms that include the conditions under which they believe they should be established and operated. Many individuals who support wind farms in principle nonetheless accept they should not be established in ways likely to harm neighbours. An example is provided by a petition submitted to the ACT Legislative Assembly on 16th September 2014 by Ms Nicole Lawder. The text of the petition (Petition No 16-14) as reported in the Hansard of the Legislative Assembly for the ACT (copy attached), p 2688, is as follow: To the Honourable the Speaker and Members of the Legislative Assembly of New South Wales and Australian Capital Territory.
