  • Liberal Nationals Released a Plan
    COVID-19 RESPONSE May 2020 michaelobrien.com.au COVID-19 RESPONSE Dear fellow Victorians, By working with the State and Federal Governments, we have all achieved an extraordinary outcome in supressing COVID-19 that makes Victoria – and Australia - the envy of the world. We appreciate everyone who has contributed to this achievement, especially our essential workers. You have our sincere thanks. This achievement, however, has come at a significant cost to our local economy, our community and to our way of life. With COVID-19 now apparently under a measure of control, it is urgent that the Andrews Labor Government puts in place a clear plan that enables us to take back our Michael O’Brien MP lives and rebuild our local communities. Liberal Leader Many hard lessons have been learnt from the virus outbreak; we now need to take action to deal with these shortcomings, such as our relative lack of local manufacturing capacity. The Liberals and Nationals have worked constructively during the virus pandemic to provide positive suggestions, and to hold the Andrews Government to account for its actions. In that same constructive manner we have prepared this Plan: our positive suggestions about what we believe should be the key priorities for the Government in the recovery phase. This is not a plan for the next election; Victorians can’t afford to wait that long. This is our Plan for immediate action by the Andrews Labor Government so that Victoria can rebuild from the damage done by COVID-19 to our jobs, our communities and our lives. These suggestions are necessarily bold and ambitious, because we don’t believe that business as usual is going to be enough to secure our recovery.

  • May 22 2017 URGENT Hon Richard Wynne Minister
    May 22 2017 URGENT Hon Richard Wynne Minister for Planning Level 16, 8 Nicholson Street East Melbourne VIC 3002 Email: [email protected] METRO RAIL DISASTER MAJOR TRAFFIC JAM – TOORAK RD WEST Melbourne Metro Rail Authority/Yarra Trams are about to commence construction of a “superstop” as part of the new tramline in Toorak Road West between Park Street and St Kilda Road, South Yarra. That superstop is so wide that it will reduce the traffic lanes in both directions to one lane. In response to our numerous requests to the MMRA that the tram stop be reduced in size so as to allow two lanes in each direction we are told it cannot be done because that is the “Policy”. The effect of that one tram stop in the last 500 metres or so of the eight kilometers the Toorak Road tram has travelled to that point will be to create a massive traffic jam for vehicles travelling to St Kilda Road and out of St Kilda Road in an easterly direction. The chaos caused by this traffic jam will impact a large part of Melbourne, will continue for the estimated five years of the Metro construction and perhaps forever because of what is now plainly the PTV (misconceived) intention that the current Park St/Domain Road tram will never be returned. It is extraordinary that one tram stop should be permitted to cause such harm to Melbourne and that it cannot be changed because of the “policy”. It is even more extraordinary when for the previous eight kilometers or more of the Toorak Road tram there are two traffic lanes during peak hours plus a tram line on which cars can travel and not one single disabled tram stop.

  • Over Policing; the Need for Execuitive Accountability During the Covid-19 Crisis
    Inquiry into the Victorian Government's Response to the COVID-19 Pandemic Submission no. 20 OVER POLICING; THE NEED FOR EXECUITIVE ACCOUNTABILITY DURING THE COVID-19 CRISIS JACQUELINE WRIGHT I INTRODUCTION Following the Victorian Government’s health response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Public Accounts and Estimates Committee have commenced a public inquiry to consider the effectiveness of the Victorian Government approach.1 This submission addresses the terms of reference of the inquiry by considering the lack of transparency surrounding Victoria’s over policing of vulnerable communities in response to the COVID-19 crisis. This submission considers this lack of transparency around the policing of assembly and movement, in light of executive responsibility as a principle of public law. This submission argues that the Victorian response to the COVID-19 crisis lacks transparency and effective reporting necessary for executive accountability. II EXECUTIVE AUTHORITY Whilst it is important for the Executive Government to be capable of and empowered to respond to a crisis be it war, natural disaster, financial crisis,2 or indeed a health emergency, a level of accountability is essential to prevent an executive power grab. In ascertaining the scope of power of the executive, the cautionary words of Dixon J come to mind: History and not only ancient history, shows that in countries where democratic institutions have been unconstitutionally superseded, it has been done not seldom by those holding the executive power. Forms of government may need
