300212 Stj Working File-6 St John Ambulance Australia Annual Report 2010 St John Ambulance Australia Annual Report 2010 for 12 months ending 31 December 2010 Our Values St John is a charity in the Australian community working for the Service of Humanity. Our vision for the future, whether acting alone or in partnership with others, is the provision of charitable and humanitarian services to individuals, groups and organisations. Our relief work for persons in sickness, distress, suffering or danger recognises no barrier of race, colour or creed. Funds raised for the services St John provides are a means for achieving our overall humanitarian objectives. Fundraising is not, nor will be allowed to become, an end in itself. St John takes pride in its volunteer ethos, its ethical standards and its independence. These together provide the firm foundation on which St John determines the best means of achieving the objectives to which it is dedicated. ii Contents The National Board v Chancellor 1 Finance 4 Training 5 First Aid Services 7 Community Care 9 Ophthalmic 11 Australian Youth Council 13 Historical Society 15 National Office 16 St John around Australia Australian Capital Territory 18 New South Wales 19 Northern Territory 20 Queensland 21 South Australia 22 Tasmania 23 Victoria 24 Western Australia 25 Appendices 1.

    NORTHERN TERRITORY LAW JOURNAL Volume 3, Number 2 September 2016 ARTICLES Ethics and etiquette – Justice Graham Hiley RFD and Kate Bulling Expanding on the presentation given by the Hon Justice Graham Hiley at the 2015 Criminal Lawyers Association of the Northern Territory Conference, this article provides both newly admitted and more experienced practitioners with a sound basis for understanding the origins and sources of legal ethics and the potential consequences for practitioners who fall foul of their duties. ................................. 59 The right to silence – David Morters This article considers the meaning of the concept, its historical origins and development in the case law, the arguments for and against modification and the effectiveness of changes that have been introduced in England and New South Wales. Finally, it expresses a conclusion about how best the balance can be struck between the interests of the individual and the state on this much debated topic. ........................................................................................................ 77 Driving whilst disqualified – A case for change – Julian R Murphy and Hugo Moodie This article highlights the authors’ concern at the approach of Northern Territory courts to sentencing for the offence of driving whilst disqualified. Particular concern is expressed at the impact on Indigenous Territorians. It is posited that this approach rests on an unstable precedential foundation, lacks cogent justification in sentencing principles and is an inefficacious

  • CHANCELLOR, I Have the Honour to Present to You for the Award of The
    CHANCELLOR, I have the honour to present to you for the award of the degree of Doctor of Economics, Honoris Causa, Dr Neil Raymond Conn, Officer of the Order of Australia. Dr. Conn was born in Sydney in 1936. He attended several schools in northern and western New South Wales before studying at the University of Sydney, from which he received, firstly, a Bachelor of Economics degree, with first class Honours in Economic Statistics, and then the degree of Master of Economics. Between 1961 and 1975 he lectured in Economics at the University of Sydney. During this period his talents were recognised and sought by external organisations, and he was seconded for a total of two years’ service in the Commonwealth Treasury and the Commonwealth Department of Secondary Industry. He also spent one year as the James B. Duke Fellow at Duke University in the United States, where he won his Doctorate in Economics, and gained membership of the elite academic society Phi Beta Kappa. Dr. Conn left academia in 1975, to work for two years as Principal Administrator, Growth Studies Division, at the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development in Paris. In this role he significantly increased the profile of Australia and Australians in the context of discussions and decisions about international economic affairs. He returned to Sydney to become Deputy Secretary of the New South Wales Treasury for several years. In 1981 he came to the Northern Territory to become our Under Treasurer. He held that position until 1983, when he went back to Sydney to work for a Canadian owned merchant bank.

  • Report on the Inquiry Into the Implications of Removing Refundable Franking Credits
    The Parliament of the Commonwealth of Australia Report on the inquiry into the implications of removing refundable franking credits House of Representatives Standing Committee on Economics April 2019 Canberra © Commonwealth of Australia 2019 ISBN 978-1-76092-005-0 (Printed version) ISBN 978-1-76092-006-7 (HTML version) This work is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial- NoDerivs 3.0 Australia License. The details of this licence are available on the Creative Commons website: http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/au/. Foreword On 19 September 2018, the Treasurer, the Hon Josh Frydenberg, MP, referred to the committee an inquiry into the removal of refundable franking credits. The Treasurer asked the committee to inquire into and report on the implications of removing refundable franking credits and, in particular, the stress and complexity it will cause for Australians, including older Australians who will be impacted in their retirement. The public response to the inquiry has been extraordinary. The committee held a series of 19 public hearings across the country to allow Australians to have their say in light of a policy proposed to be introduced on 1 July 2019. These hearings were very well attended – often exceeding 300 people. A total of 1777 submissions were published and many more documents were received that could not be published by the time the committee reported. While the participation in the inquiry was high, worryingly the evidence suggests that many people at risk of being impacted from a policy change are unaware of the proposal that could result in them losing a third of their income.
