    ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING OF THE ALLIANCE OF GIRLS’ SCHOOLS (AUSTRALASIA) LTD Monday 23 May 2016 BRANCH REPORTS: WESTERN AUSTRALIA All ten girls’ schools in Western Australia are members of AGSA. This year we welcomed two new principal’s to our schools at the beginning of 2015; Kim Keipe at St Hildas Anglican Girls School and Kerrie Fraser at Mercedes College. In Term 4 we also welcomed Dr Kate Hadwen as Principal to Presbyterian Ladies College. In welcoming new principals, we also said farewell to Beth Blackwood who has been Principal at PLC for 18 years. Beth has been a generous contributor to AGSA serving on the National committee during her time at the school. She has been an inspirational leader of a girls’ school in Western Australia. We are fortunate that we will maintain our contact with Beth as the new Executive Officer of AHISA another important educational group. We try and hold at least one AGSA event each term during the year. In Term 1 we held a Year 12 leaders afternoon which was opened up to 6 members of each School’s student leadership team. This event was run by Senior Staff and Student Leaders of Perth College. It provided a rich opportunity for the girls to connect and share their ideas and thoughts on student leadership especially following the Student Leadership Conference that many of our schools sent girls too. In Term 2 we held a networking and dinner at Penrhos College for senior staff. There were approximately 100 people in attendance and we had the opportunity to hear from Cynthia Griffin, US Consul General based in Perth.

    PARLIAMENT OF TASMANIA HOUSE OF ASSEMBLY REPORT OF DEBATES Wednesday 16 September 2020 REVISED EDITION Wednesday 16 September 2020 The Speaker, Ms Hickey, took the Chair at 10 a.m., acknowledged the Traditional People and read Prayers. QUESTIONS Launceston General Hospital - Bed-Block and Understaffing Ms WHITE to MINISTER for HEALTH, Ms COURTNEY [10.02 a.m.] Yesterday you feigned ignorance of the concerns raised by registrars in the Emergency Department about conditions at the Launceston General Hospital. You shockingly ignored revelations that patients have died as the result of overcrowding and bed block. You did not mention patients once in your media release yesterday in response to this explosive letter from staff at the LGH. While you choose to play politics, I will remind you that we are talking about people's lives. Now that you have read the letter, what is your response to the issues that have been raised? How many avoidable patient deaths have been reported at the LGH in the past 12 months? ANSWER Madam Speaker, I thank the member for her question. I will provide an update on that letter now that I have had the opportunity to read it. It is unfortunate that the Leader of the Opposition suggests that this side of the House is playing politics. The Opposition brought a letter given to a leadership person at the LGH into this House, rather than to me. To say we are the side playing politics and then to waste question time with a letter that was not provided to me speaks volumes about the Opposition Leader.
