  • Transgender Outrage
    Transgender outrage Branch slams Colbeck over vote ROBERT INGLIS ONE of the biggest Liberal Party branches in southern Tasmania has delivered a stinging rebuke of the state’s most senior federal Liberal MP, saying its members are in “sheer disbelief” that he refused to back a controversial Senate motion condemning medical treatment for transgender children. The Tasmanian Liberals’ Howrah branch, which has about 40 paying members, met on Thursday to discuss its concern over Aged Care Services Minister and Tasmanian Liberal Senator Richard Colbeck’s decision to vote against a motion put by One Nation Senator Malcolm Roberts, which sought to condemn the use of “experimental and unproven” medical treatment on children experiencing gender dysphoria. The motion, which was ultimately defeated 35-23, called for a “wait-and- see” approach to the issue, claiming that “70-90 per cent of young people’s gender dysphoria resolves itself by puberty”. Tasmanian Senator Richard Colbeck Senator Colbeck was the only Tasmanian Liberal Senator who did not support the motion, with senators Eric Abetz, Claire Chandler, Jonathon Duniam and Wendy Askew all backing it. In a letter addressed to the five senators, obtained by the Mercury, the Howrah branch blasts Senator Colbeck and praises Senator Chandler for standing against the participation of transgender people in women’s sport. “At a meeting of the Howrah Branch held earlier today, I was requested by branch members to write to you to express … our sheer disbelief and serious objection to the recent conduct of Tasmanian Liberal Senator and Federal Minister for Sport, Senator Richard Colbeck, for aligning himself with Labor and the Greens to vote against the sensible ‘wait and see’ motion proposed in the senate on the 15th of June 2021,” branch president and Clarence councillor Brendan Blomeley writes.

  • Premier of Tasmania - Anniversary of June 2016 Floods a Time for Reflection
    Premier of Tasmania - Anniversary of June 2016 floods a time for reflection Search Home News About Cabinet Speeches Budget Contact Will Hodgman Premier of Tasmania 5 June 2017 Jeremy Rockliff, Minister for Primary Industries and Water Anniversary of June 2016 floods a time for reflection In marking the 12-month anniversary of last June’s devastating floods, it is a time to reflect on the tragic loss of life and the many families, farms and communities that were impacted. Once in a century floods swept across 20 of Tasmania’s 29 municipalities with enormous speed and causing catastrophic damage to farms and infrastructure and people’s livelihoods. It is difficult to adequately describe the heartache of missing family members, farmers losing stock or a family seeing their home go under water – it has a different impact on every individual. The community, including the Tasmanian Government, stood beside these families and communities as they rebuilt and we continue to help with rehabilitation grants, loans and financial advice. The total damage bill is estimated in excess of $180 million and my thanks go to the many organisations like the local councils, TFGA, Dairy Tas, Rural Business Tasmania, Rural Alive and Well, and DPIPWE who all worked magnificently together to help affected families and communities. The Tasmanian Government quickly responded with a series of Emergency Assistance Grants, Community and Primary Producer Clean-up Grants, funding to the Rural Relief Fund, established the Flood Recovery Taskforce, the Flood Recovery Loan Scheme and also successfully liaised with the Australian Government for the affected regions to be covered by the National Disaster Relief and Recovery Arrangement.

  • Sorell Council Area– Community Food Access Profile
    SORELL COUNCIL AREA– COMMUNITY FOOD ACCESS PROFILE Introduction & disclaimer – This profile has been developed by the Heart Foundation Tasmania as part of the Healthy Food Access Tasmania Project. The information highlighted in this profile was gathered in 2014/15 and it provides an overview for the local government area. For any questions or additional information please contact the Heart Foundation. Why does access to healthy food matter? Limited or poor access to healthy food has both health and social consequences. There are many health conditions and diseases which are associated with or caused by a poor diet, as a result of poor economic or physical access to healthy food. These diseases include heart disease1, diabetes2, some cancers3 and other health conditions such as overweight4 and obesity5. Reduced access to healthy food can cause poor physical development in children and impact their learning and attendance at school6. For adults who have poor access to healthy food it is often very stressful and causes them to be anxious and ashamed7. This often also means they avoid social occasions in their communities and with family and which can lead to them becoming socially isolated8. How are the residents of Sorell doing? Currently 49.9 % of adults living in Sorell eat the recommended two pieces of fruit per day and 7.6 % eat the recommended five serves of vegetables, compared with 42% and 9.8% for state averages9. Sorell residents are eating more fruit and but less vegetables in 2013 when compared with 2009. For adults living in Sorell, 21.5 % are obese9. Compounding this 17.2 % of Sorell adults report that their health is poor or fair, although this is less than the 19% state average10.
