  • Liberal Nationals Released a Plan
    COVID-19 RESPONSE May 2020 michaelobrien.com.au COVID-19 RESPONSE Dear fellow Victorians, By working with the State and Federal Governments, we have all achieved an extraordinary outcome in supressing COVID-19 that makes Victoria – and Australia - the envy of the world. We appreciate everyone who has contributed to this achievement, especially our essential workers. You have our sincere thanks. This achievement, however, has come at a significant cost to our local economy, our community and to our way of life. With COVID-19 now apparently under a measure of control, it is urgent that the Andrews Labor Government puts in place a clear plan that enables us to take back our Michael O’Brien MP lives and rebuild our local communities. Liberal Leader Many hard lessons have been learnt from the virus outbreak; we now need to take action to deal with these shortcomings, such as our relative lack of local manufacturing capacity. The Liberals and Nationals have worked constructively during the virus pandemic to provide positive suggestions, and to hold the Andrews Government to account for its actions. In that same constructive manner we have prepared this Plan: our positive suggestions about what we believe should be the key priorities for the Government in the recovery phase. This is not a plan for the next election; Victorians can’t afford to wait that long. This is our Plan for immediate action by the Andrews Labor Government so that Victoria can rebuild from the damage done by COVID-19 to our jobs, our communities and our lives. These suggestions are necessarily bold and ambitious, because we don’t believe that business as usual is going to be enough to secure our recovery.

  • Three Education Ministers with Public Primary School Backgrounds
    AUSTRALIAN COUNCIL FOR THE DEFENCE OF GOVERNMENT SCHOOLS PRESS RELEASE 582# THREE EDUCATION MINISTERS WITH PUBLIC PRIMARY SCHOOL BACKGROUNDS : Rewards for the Public School Vote in the Victorian Election? Although the private, religious school lobby attempted to influence the outcome of the recent Victorian election, it was the disaffected public school voters, particularly in the neglected developing suburbs and inner city that decided the outcome. Education was a key election issue, with Labor making significant commitments to increase support and funding for public TAFEs, schools and preschools. However, it should be noted that Labor also attempted to ‘buy’the religious vote with a promise of $120 m for expanded facilities. James Merlino, like the Labor Party is Janus faced – facing both ways. Yet when the Catholic Education Office instructed Catholic parents to put the Greens last in the inner city electorates, they did the Greens a great service. Two members from those electorates are now sitting in the Victorian Parliament. And the victorious Labor Party has had the sense to replace the ex-Catholic school principal and administrator, Liberal Education Minister Dixon, with someone who has at least a primary school public education- James Merlino. Deputy Premier Merlino is joined by two other Ministers who have public school experiences. They are: Steve Herbert as Minister for Skills and Training and Jenny Mikakos as Minister for Children and Families, Youth Affairs 1 DOGS note the following CVs for the three Labor Ministers involved with education: 1. JAMES MERLINO: James Merlino was born 19 August 1972. He notes that he attended St Edmonds Public School 1978-1984 , Mt Lilydale College 1985-1990 and received a BA (Hons) 1996 (The University of Melbourne).

  • Written Questions on Notice Provided by the Hon. James Merlino
    Public Accounts and Estimates Committee | Inquiry into the Government’s response to COVID-19 Written questions on notice provided by the Hon. James Merlino 1. Portfolio: Education Witness: Hon. James Merlino Committee member: Ms Bridget Vallence Page of transcript: p.22-23 Written question: • Have there been any reports from students in school? • Have there been any reports from any schools around any changes to mental health or suicide, particularly, or attempted suicide? Answer: • The Department of Education and Training (the Department) is continuing to provide principals, teachers and school staff with resources to support their students’ mental health and wellbeing during the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. • The pandemic is likely to have a significant impact on the mental health and wellbeing of some of our students and the wider community. Mental health and wellbeing support to students is critical given the impact physical distancing and isolation is likely to have on some students during the pandemic and longer term. • Principals, teachers and health and wellbeing support staff are continuing to support the mental health and wellbeing of students. • It is challenging to compare reporting in schools while students have mostly been learning from home, with reports from schools at the same time last year. Some students’ mental health and wellbeing issues may not have been initially visible while students have been learning from home. • Reports from schools between weeks 1 to 5 of Term 2 of mental stress have dropped by almost 25 per cent from 613 to 460 compared to the same time last year. This data may be explained by the reduction of operational incidents due to the low numbers of students attending school onsite during this time.

  • May 22 2017 URGENT Hon Richard Wynne Minister
    May 22 2017 URGENT Hon Richard Wynne Minister for Planning Level 16, 8 Nicholson Street East Melbourne VIC 3002 Email: [email protected] METRO RAIL DISASTER MAJOR TRAFFIC JAM – TOORAK RD WEST Melbourne Metro Rail Authority/Yarra Trams are about to commence construction of a “superstop” as part of the new tramline in Toorak Road West between Park Street and St Kilda Road, South Yarra. That superstop is so wide that it will reduce the traffic lanes in both directions to one lane. In response to our numerous requests to the MMRA that the tram stop be reduced in size so as to allow two lanes in each direction we are told it cannot be done because that is the “Policy”. The effect of that one tram stop in the last 500 metres or so of the eight kilometers the Toorak Road tram has travelled to that point will be to create a massive traffic jam for vehicles travelling to St Kilda Road and out of St Kilda Road in an easterly direction. The chaos caused by this traffic jam will impact a large part of Melbourne, will continue for the estimated five years of the Metro construction and perhaps forever because of what is now plainly the PTV (misconceived) intention that the current Park St/Domain Road tram will never be returned. It is extraordinary that one tram stop should be permitted to cause such harm to Melbourne and that it cannot be changed because of the “policy”. It is even more extraordinary when for the previous eight kilometers or more of the Toorak Road tram there are two traffic lanes during peak hours plus a tram line on which cars can travel and not one single disabled tram stop.

  • Over Policing; the Need for Execuitive Accountability During the Covid-19 Crisis
    Inquiry into the Victorian Government's Response to the COVID-19 Pandemic Submission no. 20 OVER POLICING; THE NEED FOR EXECUITIVE ACCOUNTABILITY DURING THE COVID-19 CRISIS JACQUELINE WRIGHT I INTRODUCTION Following the Victorian Government’s health response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Public Accounts and Estimates Committee have commenced a public inquiry to consider the effectiveness of the Victorian Government approach.1 This submission addresses the terms of reference of the inquiry by considering the lack of transparency surrounding Victoria’s over policing of vulnerable communities in response to the COVID-19 crisis. This submission considers this lack of transparency around the policing of assembly and movement, in light of executive responsibility as a principle of public law. This submission argues that the Victorian response to the COVID-19 crisis lacks transparency and effective reporting necessary for executive accountability. II EXECUTIVE AUTHORITY Whilst it is important for the Executive Government to be capable of and empowered to respond to a crisis be it war, natural disaster, financial crisis,2 or indeed a health emergency, a level of accountability is essential to prevent an executive power grab. In ascertaining the scope of power of the executive, the cautionary words of Dixon J come to mind: History and not only ancient history, shows that in countries where democratic institutions have been unconstitutionally superseded, it has been done not seldom by those holding the executive power. Forms of government may need
