Background Councillor Nelson has been approached by a (GMML) to represent council PHC Meetings. A copy of the correspondence detailing the purpose of this organisation is attached for your Information. Statutory Environment Nil Policy Implications Nil Financial Implications Nil Strategic Implications Outcome 3.1 Carnarvon is a proud community and is a desirable place to live, invest and visit. Develop and implement an investment attraction strategy, in partnership with stakeholders to increase awareness of Carnarvon as a desirable place to invest. Review Regional Collaboration. Broaden the marketing of Carnarvon to promote it as a desirable place to live, invest and visit in collaboration with key stakeholders. Encourage locals to talk Carnarvon up not down to promote a sense of community pride. Provide opportunities for community participation to promote a sense of belonging. Encourage and advocate for all to defend Carnarvon and promote positive stories. Media strategies to increase awareness of Carnarvon. Voting Requirements Simple Majority Comment Below is an extract from an email I received from the Regional Coordinator of the GMML regarding this matter: “These meetings are held twice a year in Carnarvon and currently Julee is attending as a health representative from the Carnarvon Family Support Services. The reason for this request is we currently have one other representative from Carnarvon Family Support Agency and we permit only one spokesperson per agency to contribute to the meetings. It was raised at the meeting perhaps Julee could attend on behalf of the Shire? We ask you if you could kindly assist with our request for Julee, or alternatively we would appreciate contact details for a Shire representative to attend the meetings and be involved with the hub. Mr Battilana, perhaps you may be interested in attending the meetings? The Primary Health Care Hub meetings are to encourage all agencies, stakeholders, Shires and Consumers to come to one meeting place to discuss Primary Health Care services in to the town. At the last meeting we discussed our plans to compile a Primary Health Care Service Directory for the local community which will list all of the PHC services in Carnarvon along with all visiting specialist to town to ensure both the public and all health professionals have access to the Directory. The Directories will be printed for all health professionals, emailed to all agencies and shires and be available on the GMML website. We would also like to work together with the Shires in the Midwest Region to ensure the Health Service Directories are listed on the Shire websites for easy access for the public and also the visiting tourist. As you will see in the attached documents the meetings are well structured and identify the Top 5 Identified Primary Health Priorities for the town. Once these priorities are identified from the hub meetings the findings are then brought to a forum, subcommittee, then to the CEO & Board of the GMML for consideration. From this process the Board & CEO will make decisions in regards to funding for programs to support all in the Midwest Region.” See attached supporting documents for further details of this organisation.

  • Looking West: a Guide to Aboriginal Records in Western Australia
    A Guide to Aboriginal Records in Western Australia The Records Taskforce of Western Australia ¨ ARTIST Jeanette Garlett Jeanette is a Nyungar Aboriginal woman. She was removed from her family at a young age and was in Mogumber Mission from 1956 to 1968, where she attended the Mogumber Mission School and Moora Junior High School. Jeanette later moved to Queensland and gained an Associate Diploma of Arts from the Townsville College of TAFE, majoring in screen printing batik. From 1991 to present day, Jeanette has had 10 major exhibitions and has been awarded four commissions Australia-wide. Jeanette was the recipient of the Dick Pascoe Memorial Shield. Bill Hayden was presented with one of her paintings on a Vice Regal tour of Queensland. In 1993 several of her paintings were sent to Iwaki in Japan (sister city of Townsville in Japan). A recent major commission was to create a mural for the City of Armadale (working with Elders and students from the community) to depict the life of Aboriginal Elders from 1950 to 1980. Jeanette is currently commissioned by the Mundaring Arts Centre to work with students from local schools to design and paint bus shelters — the established theme is the four seasons. Through her art, Jeanette assists Aboriginal women involved in domestic and traumatic situations, to express their feelings in order to commence their journey of healing. Jeanette currently lives in Northam with her family and is actively working as an artist and art therapist in that region. Jeanette also lectures at the O’Connor College of TAFE. Her dream is to have her work acknowledged and respected by her peers and the community.

The 162 .breeding species ~re mapped, and each was assessed for possible changes m ~bundance durmg the last century. No species is known to have become extinct. For about 75% of breeding species we could not detect a change, but about 13% have increased in abundance and 10-15% have decreased in abundance. These changes are comparable to those reported for a nearby arid area (the Murchison catchment), but are less than those reported for an eastern Australian arid area (western New South Wales). INTRODUCTION these authors did not examine historical changes. The north-west coast was the first part of The present paper is therefore an attempt to do this.

  • Assessment of Bait Acceptance by Introduced Predators from a Single Aerial Deployment of Bio-Marked Baits in the Gascoyne Region, Western Australia
    Assessment of Bait Acceptance by Introduced Predators from a Single Aerial Deployment of Bio-marked Baits in the Gascoyne Region, Western Australia. G.J. Angus1, M.L. Onus1, N. Hamilton1 and G.B. Withnell2 1 Department of Conservation and Land Management, PO Box 51, Wanneroo, Western Australia 6946. 2 Department of Conservation and Land Management, PO Box 809, Collie, Western Australia 6225. A Report to the Wind Over Water Foundation. July 2002. Introduction Through funding from the Wind Over Water Foundation, the Department of Conservation and Land Management is conducting a series of field experiments aimed at maximising the efficiency of aerial baiting for feral cats. The relative efficacy of various baiting regimes are to be compared by the aerial deployment of non-toxic baits containing the biomarker Rhodamine B (RB). Subsequent trapping and examination of both target and non-target animals will be conducted to determine the proportion of these populations that have consumed bait material. The first study in this series was conducted at the Gibson Desert Nature Reserve and compared the relative efficacy of 50 and 100 baits per km2 (Angus et al. 2002). Both the relative efficacy and the potential risk to non-target fauna of these two regimes were assessed concurrently. The efficacy and efficiency of the baiting regimes examined was comparable to that achieved previously with this bait medium and outstanding in contrast to alternate control methods and bait media employed elsewhere. The 50 baits per km2 regime was found to be as equally efficacious as the 100 baits per km2 regime, for the control of feral cats.
