  • The News of 1� �
    THE NEWS OF 1� � A000133X ABN 14 396 912 508 March 2013 PRESIDENT'S CORNER At the February Committee Meeting we finalised plans for the AGM, had a presentation on the history and current status of the Wilky Lodge that burnt down in 2004 from Graeme Thornton and David Laing, discussed MOFS/TOFS walk meeting points, and progressed work on our Club's Future Directions (see below). The AGM went well with a new Committee elected and all Reports accepted. A decision was made not to increase Membership fees this year. The highlight of the evening was the presentation after the AGM by lan Mair on Making Our Club History Accessible. I suggest you have a look at the website and see the fascinating new material that is progressively being added, e.g. old photos in the Photo Gallery going all the way back to 1940, copies of Walk Magazjne from 1949-87 (under Downloads) as well as old Newsletters. I would like to extend a warm welcome to the new Committee members Poppy Sicari, Richard Long and Cathy Merrick and once again thank Alan Case and Deb Shand who are standing down this year. There is a list of all the 2013 Committee Members in this issue of the News. Another 'thank you' goes to Pearson Creswell who has been our Public Officer since 2004. This position has been the Club's statutory interface to Australian Consumer Affairs that regulates incorporated associations like ours. As a result of the new regulations introduced last year we have combined the Public Officer and Secretary positions with Howard Friend also taking on the statutory responsibilities.

  • Community Appraisal of Disability Access at Railway Stations in the City of Yarra
    Community Appraisal of Disability Access at Railway Stations in the City of Yarra Disability Advisory Committee D17/191767 ` Appraisal Reporting 2015 - 2017 PREAMBLE This project has been instigated and guided by the Disability Advisory Committee (DAC) at Yarra City Council (YCC). The significance of this report is the provision of evidence on issues of disability access to the railway stations gathered by “true experts” in access appraisals through their lived experience of sensory and/or physical disability. This report came to fruition due to an extraordinary determination, numerous visits and tireless data collection by project masterminds Mary Rispoli and David Brant (Community Representatives on the DAC). The engineering expertise, on-site assistance and data verification by Yarra’s Traffic Engineer, Warwick Middleton, were of utmost importance in their work. Generous assistance of DAC member Martin Leckey and former member of DAC Margaret Bayly added to the success. The advice and assistance of Council Officers Marta Rokicki, Pia Borghesi, Nopporn Jittasilp and Simon Exon in respect of data classification and analysis, content, formatting and editorials is also gratefully acknowledged. The case study provided by the Summer Foundation evidencing safety issues has demonstrated the urgency for action towards improvements for equal access to train commuting. A Yarra resident, who identifies himself as Bily, kindly shared his boarding experience in his electric wheelchair, which adds to the richness of this report. Special thanks are directed to the Yarra City Council for endorsing this report and to Public Transport Victoria (PTV) for consultative remarks in the process, and for the opportunity to put forward this report.

    PARLIAMENT OF VICTORIA PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES (HANSARD) LEGISLATIVE COUNCIL FIFTY-EIGHTH PARLIAMENT FIRST SESSION Book 2 Questions on Notice 9, 10 and 11 February 2016 Internet: www.parliament.vic.gov.au/downloadhansard By authority of the Victorian Government Printer Following a select committee investigation, Victorian Hansard was conceived when the following amended motion was passed by the Legislative Assembly on 23 June 1865: That in the opinion of this house, provision should be made to secure a more accurate report of the debates in Parliament, in the form of Hansard. The sessional volume for the first sitting period of the Fifth Parliament, from 12 February to 10 April 1866, contains the following preface dated 11 April: As a preface to the first volume of “Parliamentary Debates” (new series), it is not inappropriate to state that prior to the Fifth Parliament of Victoria the newspapers of the day virtually supplied the only records of the debates of the Legislature. With the commencement of the Fifth Parliament, however, an independent report was furnished by a special staff of reporters, and issued in weekly parts. This volume contains the complete reports of the proceedings of both Houses during the past session. In 2016 the Hansard Unit of the Department of Parliamentary Services continues the work begun 150 years ago of providing an accurate and complete report of the proceedings of both houses of the Victorian Parliament.

  • Australian Labor Party (Victorian Branch) 46 Pages
    Suggestion 65 Australian Labor Party (Victorian Branch) 46 pages Victorian secretariat Phone (03) 9285 7197 Fax (02) 6293 7664 Email [email protected] The Victorian Branch, Australian Labor Party appreciates the opportunity of presenting its submission. In this section we outline our general strategy and its implementation. Then we provide more detail regarding specific Divisions where warranted and finally we provide reasons for our suggested new seat of Fraser and for the renaming of Batman to Wonga; Gellibrand to Cooper and McMillan to Monash. GENERAL STRATEGY & SUMMARY OF ITS IMPLEMENTATION We ask that the Commissioners think of Victoria as containing three rings or zones which should, as far as is practicable, be kept together. These are Rural and Regional Victoria; the interface Councils representing the outer and peri- urban parts of Melbourne and finally, inner Melbourne. Let’s deal with each in turn. RURAL & REGIONAL VICTORIA We can’t do better than quote from par 54 of the 2010 Report of the Commissioners proposals: “Local government and regional boundaries were used extensively in rural and regional areas as indicators of community of interests. The Committee adopted this approach based on the prominent role that local government plays in providing a significant range of services to, and in representing the interests of, their communities in rural and regional Victoria. Geographical features such as the Great Dividing Range and state borders also impacted on the configuration of the boundaries”. Our suggestions maintain the northern Greater Geelong City Council boundary, which is also the northern boundary of Corio as the natural starting point in the south separating Melbourne from Regional Victoria.
