New & improved Illawarra chamber movement 6. United chamber movement Executive summary Message from President Sue Baker-Finch 2014-15 has been a watershed year for the Illawarra Business Chamber – we’ve set a new vision and direction for the chamber’s future, shone the light squarely on the region’s pressing transport connectivity needs, seen two of IBC’s top 5 transport infrastructure priorities ticked off, and celebrated the impact of the Small Business – too Big to Ignore Campaign with small business front and centre of the federal budget. Sue Baker-Finch IBC President The IBC and the NSW Business Chamber’s new shared vision for the business chamber in the Illawarra will better drive economic development, grow businesses and deliver more jobs in the region. The new vision will enhance what we already do to support business with stronger thought leadership, greater knowledge and understanding of business in the region, and powerful and respected influence to put the region’s economy in a winning position – placing the Illawarra First. It’s all about sharpening our focus and better utilising the collective strength of the many small, medium and large businesses, the local chambers of commerce in the region and the state chamber to have far greater influence in shaping our region’s future, while continuing to provide quality business support programs to members. On behalf of the IBC I’d like to thank members for voting unanimously in August 2015 to join the state Chamber to advance a united chamber movement across the Illawarra region and beyond at the state, national and global levels. Message from CEO Debra Murphy In our 2015 member survey, 60% of you, our members, told us that you wanted IBC to be more active and visible advocating for businesses in the Illawarra (a 15 percentage point improvement since 2013). WINTV have put together video highlights of our 2014/2015 advocacy work in action. Debra Murphy In the membership space we’ve seen a massive 73% IBC CEO increase in our membership base in just 2 years. In 2014/2015 we appointed two new Business Development Account Managers. If you haven't already met them I’m sure Bill or Termira will be in touch in the coming months. According to the 2015 member survey B2B exposure & connections and networking are the top two IBC membership benefits. The team been busy delivering these benefits over the last year. In 2014/2015 we held 20 events that were attended by 2,530 local business people. After two decades of regional business award celebrations, the 2014 Momentum Energy Illawarra Business Awards had a change of focus, format and venue. The Oscars style awards ceremony and the before & after parties gave the Illawarra business community the chance to celebrate and connect more widely. We’re looking forward to an exciting year at the IBC implementing the changes set in motion in 2014/2015. Thanks to our Promotional partners These relationships play an important role in enabling the IBC to deliver a range of services to our members and the wider business community.

  • The Life and Work of William Redfern
    THE LIFE AND WORK OF WILLIAM REDFERN The Annual Post-Graduate Oration, delivered on April 29, 1953, in the Great Hall of the University of Sydney. This oration is delivered to commemorate those who have advanced the art and science of medicine in New South Wales. By EDWARD FORD, Dean of the Faculty of Medicine and Professor of Preventive Medicine in the University of Sydney. THE LIFE AND WORK OF WILLIAM REDFERN THE LIFE AND WORK OF WILLIAM REDFERN By EDWARD FORD, Dean of the Faculty of Medicine and Professor of Preventive Medicine, University of Sydney. WILLIAM REDFERN, one of our most distinguished Australian medical forebears, arrived on these shores, in trial and despair, over a century and a half ago. He came as a convict who suffered in turn the horror of a sentence of death, the misery of life imprisonment and exile, and a bitter residue of disdain and persecution. Yet William Redfern rose from the depths to an honoured place in our history. He was a pioneer of Australian medicine, agriculture and husbandry, and a citizen who contributed greatly to the welfare of the early colony. He was the first medical practitioner to receive an Australian qualification, and our first teacher of medical students. It is an honour to recall, in this Sixth Post-Graduate Oration, the work of William Redfern and the debt we owe to him. This is made possible by the records of his day, stored richly in the Mitchell Library, and by the biographical work of the late Dr. Norman Dunlop (1928a, b) and other historians.

  • Advancement Would Be Within the Bounds of the Judicial Law-Making Function Has Been Largely Overlooked
    The Judicial Law-Making Function and a Tort of Invasion of Personal Privacy Aiden Lerch Abstract There has long been debate about whether there should be a tort of invasion of personal privacy. While the debate has traditionally focused on the precise formulation of the tort, consideration of whether the tort’s advancement would be within the bounds of the judicial law-making function has been largely overlooked. Extant literature validly points out that invasions of privacy are now commonplace in our technological society. However, societal change alone is unlikely to be sufficient to justify the establishment of a new tort. This article explores whether there is a more principled justification for the common law development of a tort of invasion of personal privacy by critically assessing whether it can be integrated into the underlying foundations of contemporary Australian tort law. It is argued that upon an acceptance that the rights-based theory provides a leading account of Australian tort law, it can be determined that the judicial advancement of a tort of invasion of personal privacy would be justified and legitimate. Please cite this article as: Aiden Lerch, ‘The Judicial Law-Making Function and a Tort of Invasion of Personal Privacy’ (2021) 43(2) Sydney Law Review 133 (advance).

  • Severe Storms on the East Coast of Australia 1770–2008
    SEVERE STORMS ON THE EAST COAST OF AUSTRALIA 1770 – 2008 Jeff Callaghan Research Fellow, Griffith Centre for Coastal Management, Griffith University, Gold Coast, Qld Formerly Head Severe Storm Forecaster, Bureau of Meteorology, Brisbane Dr Peter Helman Senior Research Fellow, Griffith Centre for Coastal Management, Griffith University, Gold Coast, Qld Published by Griffith Centre for Coastal Management, Griffith University, Gold Coast, Queensland 10 November 2008 This publication is copyright. Apart from any fair dealing for the purpose of private study, research, criticism or review, as permitted under the Copyright Act, no part may be reproduced by any process without written permission from the publisher. ISBN: 978-1-921291-50-0 Foreword Severe storms can cause dramatic changes to the coast and devastation to our settlements. If we look back through history, to the first European observations by James Cook and Joseph Banks on Endeavour in 1770, we can improve our understanding of the nature of storms and indeed climate on the east coast. In times of climate change, it is essential that we understand natural climate variability that occurs in Australia. Looking back as far as we can is essential to understand how climate is likely to behave in the future. Studying coastal climate through this chronology is one element of the process. Analysis of the records has already given an indication that east coast climate fluctuates between phases of storminess and drought that can last for decades. Although records are fragmentary and not suitable for statistical analysis, patterns and climate theory can be derived. The dependence on shipping for transport and goods since European settlement ensures a good source of information on storms that gradually improves over time.

  • Guidance Questions and Answers Concerning 49 Cfr Part 39, Ada Rules Concerning Passenger Vessels
    1 GUIDANCE QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS CONCERNING 49 CFR PART 39, ADA RULES CONCERNING PASSENGER VESSELS The Department of Transportation’s final rules applying the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) to passenger vessel operators’ (PVOs’) policies took effect January 3, 2011.i These questions and answers, responding to concerns expressed by passenger vessel operators, provide guidance on the Department’s understanding of the meaning and application of 49 CFR Part 39. The date of this guidance is January 31, 2011. Part 39 does not include requirements pertaining to the design and construction of passenger vessels. The Department anticipates proposing in the future, in cooperation with the U.S. Access Board, standards for the accessible design and construction of passenger vessels. The General Counsel of the Department of Transportation has reviewed this document and approved it as consistent with the language and intent of 49 CFR Part 39. SERVICE ANIMAL ISSUES 39.3, 39.91 QUESTION: WHAT KINDS OF ANIMALS ARE REGARDED AS SERVICE ANIMALS? ANSWER: * The Department intends that the service animal provisions of Part 39 be interpreted to be consistent with the service animal provisions of Department of Justice (DOJ) rules under Titles II and III of the ADA (as published in the Federal Register on September 15, 2010). * Consequently, the Department understands a service animal to be any dog that is individually trained to do work or perform tasks for the benefit of an individual with a disability, including a physical, sensory, psychiatric, intellectual, or other mental disability. * Other types of animals (e.g., cats, primates) are not considered service animals under DOJ rules.
