  • John Pickard-Frank Provo Collection
    Thousand Oaks Library American Radio Archives John Pickard-Frank Provo Collection Introduction The John Pickard-Frank Provo Collection of the American Radio Archives documents Pickard's career in the early days of Australian radio, as well as the collaboration between Pickard and Provo that lasted nearly 40 years, and resulted in radio programs such as Wendy Warren and the News and Young Doctor Malone, as well as television programs such as Concerning Miss Marlowe and From these Roots. Biographies John Pickard was born on April 6, 1910 in Sydney, Australia. He entered the University of Sydney to study law in 1927, yet also acted in plays as a member of the Sydney University Drama Society. It was during this time that Pickard, intrigued by the new medium of radio, tried his hand at writing a radio play titled The Tomb of Osiris. This work was performed on various stations throughout Australia, and is considered by some to be the first original Australian radio play. By 1931, acting in radio productions had become Pickard's main occupation, and he was considered one of the brightest young actors on Australian radio during his tenure with the ABC (Australian Broadcasting Company) Players, whose performances were broadcast on station 2FC in Sydney. He continued writing and directing plays as well, being promoted to the Head of Drama Productions at the Australian Broadcasting Company in 1933. Pickard wrote series such as Crime Club, and also adapted American programs like One Man's Family, in which he substituted Australian settings, situations, and colloquialisms. By 1935, however, Pickard wanted to try something new and left for the United States in August of that year.

  • Appendix 3G Further Perspectives on the Financial Benefits of Local Government Amalgamations
    3G-1 Appendix 3G Further Perspectives on the Financial Benefits of Local Government Amalgamations Appendix 3G has five sections which support the section in Chapter 3 on estimates of the financial benefits of local government amalgamations. The first section further examines the KPMG estimates that savings of up to $845 million per annum could be achieved in NSW through local government amalgamations. This first section also includes a critique of the KPMG estimates by Judith McNeill. The second section presents a Darwinian survival perspective to the debate on the preferred sizes of local governments. The third section briefly discusses the self-limiting effect whereby the strength of the argument in favour of local government amalgamations must in some senses diminish with each successfully achieved amalgamation. The fourth section, in Table 3G-3, provides a compilation of extracts from 113 Australian and international literature sources which provide valuable insights on the local government amalgamation debate generally and which appear to provide important lessons for this current study. KPMG's Financial Benefit Estimates Consultants KPMG explored four local government amalgamation options, and establishes estimates of cost savings possible through each of these options, in a 1998 report prepared for the Property Council of NSW. Table 3G-1 below summarises the key findings in this report, where savings estimates are based on 1995-96 data.
