It was the same with those other invaders, the books. Turning the pages as if unleaving a forest, He gave them away, apart from oddments and offcuts: The nickname of Albert the Great, Hobbes with his picture Of laughter as martial, Cleopatra calling for billiards.

Review ABC Editorial Policies Editorial Policies The Editorial Policies of the ABC are its leading standards and a day-to-day reference for makers of ABC content. The Editorial Policies – • give practical shape to statutory obligations in the ABC Act; • set out the ABC’s self-regulatory standards and how to enforce them; and • describe and explain to staff and the community the editorial and ethical principles fundamental to the ABC. The role of Director Editorial Policies was established in 2007 and comprises three main functions: to advise, verify and review. The verification function principally involves the design and implementation of quality assurance projects to allow the ABC to assess whether it is meeting the standards required of it and to contribute to continuous improvement of the national public broadcaster and its content. Acknowledgements The project gained from the sustained efforts of several people, and the Director Editorial Policies acknowledges: Denis Muller, Michelle Fisher, Manager Research, and Jessica List, Executive Assistant. Thanks also to Ian Carroll and John Cameron, respectively the Directors of the Innovation Division and the News Division, and to their senior staff, whose engagement over the details of editorial decision-making gave the project layers that an assessment of this sort usually lacks.

  • Fraser Minister Critical of Turnbull's Rejection Of
    Fraser minister critical of Turnbull’s rejection of indigenous voice Former Aboriginal affairs minister Fred Chaney. • The Australian • 17January 2018 • Rick Morton Malcolm Turnbull and his government, in their swift rejection of a proposed indigenous voice to parliament, have either “misunderstood or misrepresented” the idea in a way that tried to “turn the clock backward,” the former Aboriginal affairs minister Fred Chaney said. Mr Chaney, a minister in the Fraser government and a deputy leader of the Liberal Party, said there was “confusion” in the government’s response to the Referendum Council’s recommendations on constitutional recognition. “I found the government’s response very troubling because it talked about equal citizenship, an idea this nation has already addressed with a previous referendum and full legal citizenship,” he said. Speaking particularly about an indigenous body that would act as a “voice” to parliament — something some Coalition MPs dismissed as a “third chamber of parliament” — Mr Chaney said it was a “generous” concession to constitutional conservatives. “Through this whole process, Aboriginal people have removed the logs in the path, this idea that there would be a bill of rights, that it would disturb the balance between the parliament and the courts, all of these things have been removed,” he said. 2 “All we are asking is for the specific existence and survival of Aboriginal people to be acknowledged. We essentially tried to annihilate them, to wipe their culture and language from the country, and they survived. It is a heroic story. This is a very gentle proposal … which would allow Aboriginal people to be heard on legislation that affects them.” • READ MORE • They were first — we should listen University of NSW professor of law and constitutional lawyer Megan Davis, who is also a Referendum Council member, said there had been a “fundamental misunderstanding” of the issue in government.
