ISBN 978 1 74232 258 2 DECC 2009/332 FOREWORD Sherwood Nature Reserve is located approximately 40 kilometres south-east of Grafton in northern NSW and encompasses 5,904 hectares. Sherwood Nature Reserve is part of a regionally important system of protected areas and conserves plant species and communities representative of the Kangaroo Creek sandstone geology as well as a regionally significant sub-tropical rainforest remnant and locally significant old growth forest. There are 32 plant species of conservation significance recorded in the reserve, including 11 species listed under the Threatened Species Conservation Act. The varied vegetation communities support a diverse range of resident vertebrate fauna, and provides important seasonal habitat for a number of nomadic and migratory species. More than 50 species of conservation significance are recorded or predicted to occur in the reserve. Apart from numerous cultural sites and stories relating to ceremonial complexes, an Aboriginal Place known as Miimiga Gaungan is located within the southern portion of the reserve.

  • The Australian Electoral Commission Perspective
    Chapter Two Current Issues and Recent Cases on Electoral Law — The Australian Electoral Commission perspective Paul Pirani Before turning to an analysis of recent cases dealing with the Electoral Act 1918 (Cth) (hereafter: the Electoral Act), I need to give a quick outline of exactly what is the Australian Electoral Commission (AEC) and its role. What is the Australian Electoral Commission? The AEC conducts elections under a range of legislation. The main role for the AEC is the conduct of federal elections under the Electoral Act and referendums under the Referendum (Machinery Provisions) Act 1984 (Referendum Act). However, in addition, the AEC conducts fee-for-service elections under the authority contained in sections 7A and 7B of the Electoral Act, industrial elections under the Fair Work (Registered Organisations) Act 2009, protected action ballots under the Fair Work Act 2009 and elections for the Torres Strait Regional Authority under the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Regional Authority Act 2005. The AEC itself comprises three persons, the Chairperson (the Honourable Peter Heerey, QC), the non-judicial member (the Chief Statistician, Brian Pink) and the Electoral Commissioner (Ed Killesteyn) (see section 6 of the Electoral Act). The AEC is not a body corporate. As a matter of law, the AEC is not a legal entity that is separate from the Commonwealth of Australia. This means that the AEC is not a body corporate and is unable to sue and be sued or to enter into contracts in its own right. This is despite what was stated in the Commonwealth Parliament in 1983 when major reforms to Australia’s electoral laws took place with the amendments to the Electoral Act to establish the AEC.

Marg was with us at our Christmas event in December. I sat at the same table as Larraine McLean, Marg and she seemed to be enjoying the fellowship and fun around her. Marg, as President always, participated in the Christmas Bring and Buy which was a huge success. Delicious Christmas fare was supplied by members that was quickly bought by other members, friends and guests. It is consoling that Marg’s last time with us seemed to be such a positive event for her. In January we heard of the death of Hariette Yeckel.

  • Mapping Aboriginal Nations: the ‘Nation’ Concept of Late Nineteenth Century Anthropologists in Australia
    Mapping Aboriginal nations: the ‘nation’ concept of late nineteenth century anthropologists in Australia Kevin Blackburn From the late 18th century to the end of the 19th century, the word ‘nation’ underwent a change in meaning from a term describing cultural entities comprised of people of common descent, to the modern definition of a nation as a sovereign people. The politi- cal scientist Liah Greenfeld called this shift in the definition of the word nation a ‘semantic transformation’, in which ‘the meaning of the original concept is gradually obscured, and the new one emerges as conventional’.1 The historian Eric Hobsbawm noted that the New English Dictionary ‘pointed out in 1908, that the old meaning of the word envisaged mainly the ethnic unit, but recent usage rather stressed “the notion of political unity and independence”’.2 The political scientist Louis Snyder observed that the ‘Latin natio, (birth, race) originally signified a social grouping based on real or imag- inary ties of blood’. However by the end of the 19th century the term ‘nation’ had come to mean an ‘active and conscious portion of the population’, who shared a ‘common political sentiment’.3 The work of historians Hobsbawm and Terence Ranger suggests that in the 19th century a nation was not only a cultural group of people of common ethnic origin, but such a group of people who in addition believed that they were a united political entity possessing or desiring sovereignty.4 The cultural anthropologist Benedict Anderson has described the idea of the nation as an ‘imagined community’. He argued that a nation ‘is imagined because the members of even the smallest nations will never know most of their fellow-members, meet them, or even hear of them, yet in the minds of each lives their communion’.

  • Council Responds to Flood Crisis
    KYOGLE COUNCIL M E D I A R E L E A S E Date: 3 April 2017 Kyogle Council staff are back in the field repairing and inspecting flood damage across the Kyogle Council area, with the damages bill expected to be between $3 million and $5 million. Council's priority is to restore access to residents as soon as possible. Staff have been working since Thursday night to keep main roads open and were out in the field throughout the weekend inspecting roads, documenting damaged infrastructure, developing a prioritised program of works and restoring access where possible. Several roads were reopened Saturday and Sunday after flood water subsided and staff were able to clear debris from bridges, carry out culvert repairs, and repair bridge approaches. This work will continue throughout the week. At this stage, staff have identified a number of bridges with structural damage and a number of roads remain closed where the damage requires further assessment or alternative routes are available to residents and emergency vehicles. The number of areas affected in this way is likely to increase as further inspections take place. On Saturday afternoon there were more than 200 people isolated by landslips and damaged roads and bridges across nine different roads. By Monday morning access has been restored to all but three of these roads. A temporary bridge is being constructed on McClellands Road at Barkers Vale to replace a bridge washed away in the floods, and this should be open to traffic by this afternoon (Monday 3 April 2017), restoring access to about 20 people.

Much of our present day knowledge system relies on what has been handed down to us generation after generation. Learning through intergenerational exchange this Indigenous oral history research thesis focuses on Indigenous methodologies and ways of being. Prime to this is a focus on understanding cultural safety and protecting Indigenous spoken knowledge through intellectual property and copyright law. From an Indigenous and Wiradjuri perspective the research follows a journey of exploration into maintaining and strengthening ethical research practices based on traditional value systems. The journey looks broadly at the landscape of oral traditions both locally and internationally, so the terms Indigenous for the global experience; Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander for the Australian experience; and Wiradjuri for my own tribal identity are all used within the research dialogue. ! !

  • Essay: Trapped in the Aboriginal Reality Show
    Essay: Trapped in the Aboriginal reality show Author: Marcia Langton ean Baudrillard generated international controversy when he described in his essay ‘War Porn’ the way images from Abu Graib prison in Iraq and other J‘consensual and televisual’ violence were used in the aftermath to September 11, 2001. Strong words – perversity, vileness – sparked in his brief, acute analysis: ‘The worst is that it all becomes a parody of violence, a parody of the war itself, pornography becoming the ultimate form of the abjection of war which is unable to be simply war, to be simply about killing, and instead turns itself into a grotesque infantile reality‐show, in a desperate simulacrum of power. These scenes are the illustration of a power, without aim, without purpose, without a plausible enemy, and in total impunity. It is only capable of inflicting gratuitous humiliation.’ This made me think about the everyday suffering of Aboriginal children and women, the men who assault and abuse them, and the use of this suffering as a kind of visual and intellectual pornography in Australian media and public debates. The very public debate about child abuse is like Baudrillard’s ‘war porn’. It has parodied the horrible suffering of Aboriginal people. The crisis in Aboriginal society is now a public spectacle, played out in a vast ‘reality show’ through the media, parliaments, public service and the Aboriginal world. This obscene and pornographic spectacle shifts attention away from everyday lived crisis that many Aboriginal people endure – or do not, dying as they do at excessive rates. This spectacle is not a new phenomenon in Australian public life, but the debate about ‘Indigenous affairs’ has reached a new crescendo, fuelled by the accelerated and uncensored exposé of the extent of Aboriginal child abuse.
