(Non-conforming Building Products—Chain of Responsibility and Other Matters) Amendment Act 2017 vii Executive summary Confidence in the materials we use to build our domestic, commercial and public buildings is of paramount importance to all. Australians have a right to feel secure and safe in their built environment. As such, safety has always been a key motivator in the design and implementation of modern building regulations and construction codes. Often it is impossible for consumers and end users of building products to know whether a product is fit-for-purpose; trust is placed in those with the appropriate technical knowledge to ensure Australians are protected when they purchase or use building products, or that the appropriate product has been used in the place where they may work or live. Recent failures, such as the importation of asbestos-containing building products and the 2014 Lacrosse apartment building fire in Melbourne's Docklands, have highlighted the need for continued vigilance of building materials used in Australia.

  • Whitlam's Children? Labor and the Greens in Australia (2007-2013
    Whitlam’s Children? Labor and the Greens in Australia (2007-2013) Shaun Crowe A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of the Australian National University March 2017 © Shaun Crowe, 2017 1 The work presented in this dissertation is original, to the best of my knowledge and belief, except as acknowledged in the text. The material has not been submitted, in whole or in part, for a degree at The Australian National University or any other university. This research is supported by an Australian Government Research Training Program (RTP) Scholarship. 2 Acknowledgments Before starting, I was told that completing a doctoral thesis was rewarding and brutal. Having now written one, these both seem equally true. Like all PhD students, I never would have reached this point without the presence, affirmation and help of the people around me. The first thanks go to Professor John Uhr. Four and half years on, I’m so lucky to have stumbled into your mentorship. With such a busy job, I don’t know how you find the space to be so generous, both intellectually and with your time. Your prompt, at times cryptic, though always insightful feedback helped at every stage of the process. Even more useful were the long and digressive conversations in your office, covering the world between politics and philosophy. I hope they continue. The second round of thanks go to the people who aided me at different points. Thanks to Guy Ragen, Dr Jen Rayner and Alice Workman for helping me source interviews. Thanks to Emily Millane, Will Atkinson, Dr Lizzy Watt, and Paul Karp for editing chapters.

  • You Can Download the NSW Caring Fairly Toolkit Here!
    A TOOLKIT: How carers in NSW can advocate for change www.caringfairly.org.au Caring Fairly is represented in NSW by: www.facebook.com/caringfairlycampaign @caringfairly @caringfairly WHO WE ARE Caring Fairly is a national campaign led by unpaid carers and specialist organisations that support and advocate for their rights. Launched in August 2018 and coordinated by Mind Australia, Caring Fairly is led by a coalition of over 25 carer support organisations, NGOs, peak bodies, and carers themselves. In NSW, Caring Fairly is represented by Mental Health Carers NSW, Carers NSW and Flourish Australia. We need your support, and invite you to join the Caring Fairly coalition. Caring Fairly wants: • A fairer deal for Australia’s unpaid carers • Better economic outcomes for people who devote their time to supporting and caring for their loved ones • Government policies that help unpaid carers balance paid work and care, wherever possible • Politicians to understand what’s at stake for unpaid carers going into the 2019 federal election To achieve this, we need your help. WHY WE ARE TAKING ACTION Unpaid carers are often hidden from view in Australian politics. There are almost 2.7 million unpaid carers nationally. Over 850,000 people in Australia are the primary carer to a loved one with disability. Many carers, understandly, don’t identify as a ‘carer’. Caring Fairly wants visibility for Australia’s unpaid carers. We are helping to build a new social movement in Australia to achieve this. Unpaid carers prop up Australian society. Like all Australians, unpaid carers have a right to a fair and decent quality of life.

    Dear Mr McCusker, Please find attached Enhancing Democracy in Western Australia, my submission to the review of the Western Australian Legislative Council electoral system. I am happy for it to be made public. Yours sincerely, Chris Curtis Enhancing Democracy in Western Australia Chris Curtis May 2021 The manufactured hysteria that greeted Ricky Muir’s election to the Senate and that ultimately led to the Turnbull government’s rigging the Senate voting system to favour the Greens over the micro-parties is getting an encore performance with the election of Wilson Tucker in Western Australia, despite the unremarked-upon election in both jurisdictions of many more candidates of major parties from even lower primary votes and with the added twist that most members of the panel established to investigate the matter have already endorsed, even promoted, the hysteria (https://insidestory.org.au/an-affront-to-anyone-who- believes-in-democracy/). While it is clear from this fact that submissions in support of logic and democracy have already been ruled out of consideration, it is worthwhile putting them on the public record for future historians to refer to and so that more reasonable politicians can revisit the issue if the hysteria dies down.

  • Centres for Working Women at Risk
    MAy 22 – 28, 2021 | No. 350 NEWS Despite this month’s federal budget pledging $3.2 billion to women, a critical front-line service has lost much of its funding and will likely close before the end of the year. By Royce Kurmelovs. Centres for working women at risk Abbey Kendall, the director of South Australia’s Working Women’s Centre. CREDIT: SIA DUFF Any reference to Working Women’s Centres (WWC) in the budget would have been easy to miss if you weren’t looking for one, and Nicki Petrou was certainly looking. As the director of the Northern Territory WWC, Petrou had flown to Canberra the Monday before last with her counterpart from Queensland, Fiona Hunt, in a final effort to lobby the nation’s political leadership. Over two days they met directly with Attorney-General Michaelia Cash, Labor senators Jenny McAllister and Penny Wong, and Nationals senator Sam McMahon’s staff – any federal figure they could persuade to give them time. During each meeting they told the same story: the centres they run – which provide an essential front-line service helping women navigate issues in the workplace from underpayment to sexual harassment – needed $700,000 a year just to keep their doors open. If the government seriously wanted to rebuild the network of centres that once spanned the country, the cost would be $20 million. In a year when the big-spending federal budget was being sold as a shift away from austerity politics, Petrou and Hunt thought the decision obvious. Though they had not put a dollar figure to it, federal Labor had committed in principle to funding the centres, making it an easy political win for the Coalition to match this, not least in the wake of the bombshell headlines generated by Brittany Higgins and the allegations against Christian Porter.
