When I was chosen to serve as the Chair of the Scrutiny of Acts and Regulations Committee in December 1999, the Committee’s Senior Legal Adviser reminded me of one of his favorite quotations – The condition upon which God hath given liberty to man is eternal vigilance; which condition if he break, servitude is at once the consequence of his crime, and the punishment of his guilt. John Curran, 1750-1817 I am indebted for this appropriate and timely reminder. This review concerns the scrutiny of Bills introduced in the spring 1999 session and during 2000 and also briefly outlines the other work of the Committee. The Committee’s strength lies not so much in any inherent powers it may possess, as its functions are principally advisory in nature, but rather they lie in its ability to alert, caution and advise the Parliament in relation to certain undesirable legislative practices. It is the very process of independent scrutiny and the prospect of adverse comment that ensures that such practices are eliminated or where their application is unavoidable or desirable, the necessity for their use is adequately explained by the Executive to the Parliament and placed on the public record. In that respect there is more than anecdotal evidence that the Committee plays a useful role as a Parliamentary adviser. During 2000 the Committee continued its fine tradition of bipartisan work within its terms of reference. I take this opportunity to thank my Committee colleagues for their professionalism and co-operation during the year. The Committee is fortunate to have a dedicated and professional team of legal advisers and support staff, and I take this opportunity to thank our Senior Legal Adviser Andrew Homer for effectively leading the team during 2000.

Brief History of the Committee The Committee was established in November 1992 at the beginning of the 52nd Parliament and Mr Victor Perton MLA (Lib-Doncaster) became the Committee’s first Chairman. Following the March 1996 State election the Committee was reconstituted for the 53rd Parliament with Mr Peter Ryan MLA (NP- Gippsland South) as Chairman.

The Reference has been renewed at the commencement of each Parliament and continues unless revoked by Governor in Council Order. (Refer: Governor in Council Order 12 May 1994 – Victorian Government Gazette (G.19), Page 1153, May 1994); and ● Review of other legislation that are, from time to time, referred to the Committee by a resolution of either the Legislative Council or the Legislative Assembly[v] or by a Minister through an Order of the Governor in Council published in the Government Gazette[vi].

Summary Offences Act 1966. 3. Vagrancy Act 1966. References by Order of Governor in Council Further, in September 2000 the Committee was referred an inquiry by Order of Governor in Council from the Minister for State and Regional Development to recommend to Parliament a privacy code of conduct for Members of Parliament.

  • St Kilda Foreshore a Guided Trail Full Page.Pub
    THE ST KILDA FORESHORE A GUIDED TRAIL 2 St Kilda foreshore is one of Australia’s most loved places. Many associate it with beach- front leisure, sport, great food, iconic build- ings, open space, music, festivals, gardens and much more. Its popularity is a tribute to the St Kilda Foreshore Committee, which formed in 1906. Under the inspired leader- ship of Carlo Catani, an Italian-born engi- neer, the Trust created a Mediterranean style resort on the foreshore ‘for the recreation, amusement and convenience of the people’. Life on the Edge A century later, however, the St Kilda fore- shore was in danger of being ‘loved to death’. In 2003 the Port Phillip Council ap- proved the St Kilda Foreshore Urban De- sign Framework which identified areas be- tween West Beach and St Kilda Marina that had become neglected, unsafe or inade- quate to cope with vehicle traffic, visitor numbers and changes in recreational pur- suits such as cycling and roller blading or were opportunities for renewal. After exten- sive community consultation, the Council commenced the St Kilda's Edge range of urban renewal programs. 3 Renewal By late 2008 the entrance to St Kilda Pier entrance had been expanded, the Vineyard restaurant upgraded, St Kilda Kiosk and Ca- tani Arch restored and upgrade works at O’Donnell Gardens, Marina Reserve and Catani Gardens completed. A scaled model of the Solar System comprising the Sun and nine planets was created on the foreshore to promote education and the environment. The heavily used promenade between St Kilda pier and Brookes Jetty was compre- hensively upgraded including a striking new boardwalk.

    ACTIVITIES 01/09/2015 (AKA SPRING!) Cheery ‘Hello’s’ to all. At last, the coldest Victorian winter in 26 years has finally said goodbye and quietly crept away, ashamed of his ghastly greyness, as well as his short, cold, wet and windy days and, as for his freezing mornings: BOO! Hooray that he won’t return for nine whole months, yippee, skippee! Now, beautiful Spring has arrived, with her blossoms, buds and thoughts of ‘Springy’ things. Perhaps a good old IOE Spring Clean is in the air! Despite the cold, I would also like to make mention of the joy we have had over these cold months, when staff members have proudly brought in their divinely beautiful new babies for us to coo over. We wish all these families the very best with these little bubs, especially the best of health for them all. AND PS: I think it would be a wonderful idea if the next IOE BBQ was held on a Monday or Tuesday, when I am here. How I love a sausage sizzle! (Just saying, Marcelo!)

  • A History of LGBTIQ+ Victoria in 100 Places and Objects
    A History of LGBTIQ+ Victoria in 100 Places and Objects Graham Willett Angela Bailey Timothy W. Jones Sarah Rood MARCH 2021 Ministerial Foreword History shapes our identity and reminds us of who we are. For the LGBTIQ+ community, the past can be a difficult place. Today in Victoria, LGBTIQ+ people enjoy the positive transformations hard won by the 1970s Gay Liberation Movement and its public demands for equal rights. But being ‘queer’ is a something that people have often kept hidden. In Victoria, prior to decriminalisation in 1981, men could be sentenced for up to 15 years in prison for having consensual sex with other men. Same sex attraction and gender non-conformity have been treated as mental disorders and LGBTIQ+ people have often led closeted lives for their own safety. While there is still work needed to advance the legal and cultural status of LGBTIQ+ people, there are many achievements of which we can be proud.

  • Splitting of Amendment C161port – Rationale
    Splitting of Amendment C161port – rationale Council officers recommended Amendment C161port be split into two parts to enable the processing of Amendment C161port to continue in the most timely and efficient manner. The splitting of an Amendment in the manner proposed is allowable under Section 29 of the Planning and Environment Act 1987 and is appropriate for an Amendment such as this, which proposes numerous changes that do not necessarily relate to each other. • Amendment C161port - Part 1 – Includes the proposed planning scheme changes and underlying strategic work where no submission has been made and where submissions have been made in support (and no objections). Part 1 is recommended for adoption. • Amendment C161port – Part 2 – Includes all changes and underlying strategic work that is subject to unresolved objecting submissions. Submissions related to Part 2 are recommended to be referred to a Planning Panel. Note: There are some proposed planning scheme changes that have received support through the exhibition process, or whereby Council officers are recommending changes that seek to resolve the concerns of the submitter. However, where those proposals are supported by the same underlying strategic work as proposals that have been objected to, they will need to be referred to a Panel for consideration. Amendment C161port Part 1 – Properties / changes included for adoption Amendment C161port will now proceed to the Minister for Planning for final adoption – Part 1 proposes to: • Introduce a new site-specific heritage overlay (HO509) and associated controls (including new Citation and Statement of Significance incorporated documents) to 588-590 City Road, South Melbourne. • Rezone part of 9 Charles Street, St Kilda from the Mixed Use Zone (MUZ) to the Neighbourhood Residential Zone - Schedule 1 (NRZ1).
