    The Hon. Mr Tim Pallas, MP Treasurer of Victoria Level 4, 1 Treasury Place East Melbourne, VIC 3002

    8th April 2020 The Hon. Mr Tim Pallas, MP Treasurer of Victoria Level 4, 1 Treasury Place East Melbourne, VIC 3002 Dear Mr Pallas, COVID-19 crisis calls for the abolition of payroll tax We write to you on behalf of the National Electrical and Communications Association (NECA), the peak industry body for Australia’s electrical and communications contracting industry, which employs more than 165,000 workers and delivers an annual turnover in excess of $23 billion. NECA represents the best interests of over 5,200 electrical contracting businesses across all Australian States and Territories. NECA members make an integral contribution to Australia’s economy. Our members are essential from any defining aspect, including connecting hospitals, communities, schools, businesses and infrastructure across the country. From installing solar infrastructure and batteries for households, to connecting solar farms to managing the grid and undertaking millions of hours of electrical work on major infrastructure. The current COVID-19 crisis is having an unprecedent and detrimental effect upon the economy and employment in Victoria. An event which NECA acknowledges is out of the control of Government. However, certain things can be done to ensure the industry remains strong and well positioned post COVID-19. NECA and our members are keen to ensure that we work proactively with Government to restore the economic and employment levels in Victoria. In doing so, employment barriers such as payroll tax must be removed – a mechanism which is within the control of Government. NECA, as well as other industry bodies, are firmly of the view that any form of payroll tax is both counter-intuitive and counter-productive.

  • An Inquiry Into the Politics of Rural Water Allocations in Victoria

    An Inquiry Into the Politics of Rural Water Allocations in Victoria

    Watershed or Water Shared? An Inquiry into the Politics of Rural Water Allocations in Victoria Submitted in fulfillment of the requirement of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy By Barry Hancock May 2010 Well, you see Willard … In this war, things get confused out there - power, ideals, the old morality and practical military necessity. Out there with these natives it must be a temptation to be good because there's a conflict in every human heart between the rational and the irrational, between good and evil. The good does not always triumph. Sometimes the dark side overcomes what Lincoln called the better angels of our nature. Every man has got a breaking point – both you and I have. Walter Kurtz has reached his. And very obviously, he has gone insane (Apocalypse Now). ii Abstract This thesis explores the politics associated with rural water reform in Victoria. The specific focus of the thesis is on the period from 1980 through to the time of submission in May 2010. During this period, the rural water sector has undergone radical reform in Victoria. Initially, reforms were driven by a desire to improve the operational efficiency of the State’s rural water sector. With the growing realisation that water extractions were pressing against the limits of sustainable yield, the focus of the reform agenda shifted to increasing the economic efficiency derived from every megalitre of water. By early 2000, the focus of the rural water reform changed as prolonged drought impacted on the reliability of water supply for the irrigation community. The objective of the latest round of reforms was to improve the efficiency of water usage as the scarcity became more acute.

Back endpaper: Audit Office staff, 2001. iii Foreword he year 2001 assumed much significance for the Victorian Auditor-General’s Office as Tit marked the 150th anniversary of the appointment in July 1851 of the first Victorian Auditor-General, Charles Hotson Ebden. In commemoration of this major occasion, we decided to commission a history of the 150 years of the Office and appointed Dr Peter Yule, to carry out this task. The product of the work of Peter Yule is a highly informative account of the Office over the 150 year period. Peter has skilfully analysed the personalities and key events that have characterised the functioning of the Office and indeed much of the Victorian public sector over the years. His book will be fascinating reading to anyone interested in the development of public accountability in this State and of the forces of change that have progressively impacted on the powers and responsibilities of Auditors-General. Peter Yule was ably assisted by Geoff Burrows (Associate Professor in Accounting, University of Melbourne) who, together with Graham Hamilton (former Deputy Auditor- General), provided quality external advice during the course of the project.
