SUMMARY The Wilderness Society has commissioned Economists at Large to conduct a literature review on the economics of developing northern Australia’s riparian water resources. In particular, this report will looK at the Ord River Irrigation Area. Located predominantly in the East Kimberley region of Western Australia, although planned land releases will extend the area into the Northern Territory. Despite the long history of calls to develop a northern ‘food bowl’ there has been little detailed economic analysis into the benefits and costs of doing so. Developing northern Australia’s riparian water resources has historically reQuired significant amounts of public investment. Future expansion is liKely to be no different. Were this not the case, it is likely that the private sector would have already invested. There is a serious need for extensive economic analysis into the viability of irrigation projects prior to project construction, as well as economic evaluations post completion.

    SmoPPrr{G CphrrRE COUNCIL OF AUSTRALIA 16 February 20tI The Secretary Joint Standing Committee on Electoral Matters PO Box 6021 Parliament House Canberra ACï 2600 By email: [email protected] Dear Sir / Madam Inquiry into the 2010 Federal Election Thank you for the opportunity to make a submission on the Joint Standing Committee on Electoral Matters' Inquiry into the 2010 Federal Election, referred to the Committee on 23 November, 2010 by the Special Minister of State, the Hon. Gary Gray AO MP. Since the Committee is required "to inquire into, and report on all aspects of the conduct of the 2010 Federal Election and matters related thereto", the purpose of this submission is to address the issue of access to shopping centres for political campaigning. This was raised as an electoral issue in the Committee's Final Report into the 2007 Federal Election (the Committee's conclusions are at sections 7.7I9- 7.721; at pages 2OB-209), based on a submission from Mr Gary Gray MP (writing on his experience as the then ALP Candidate for Brand in the 2007 election). Mr Gray's submission outlined his perspective on "the difficulties candidates experience in relation to accessing privately-owned public open space for the purposes of campaigning during the election". There was also media coverage on this issue in January ZOLO, based on a misrepresentation of the shopping centre industry's position, which drew public comments from various politicians, including the then Prime Minister, the Hon Kevin Rudd MP, and the current Prime Minister, the Hon Julia Gillard MP.

One thing that distinguishes a champion sports person from their peers is that they seem to be unhurried, calm. They seem to be on top of things, to have a lot more time to do things, to prepare for things than their colleagues. And that’s how it is with [John] Howard. Howard never seems, or very rarely, seems harried or rushed. He’s almost always on top of the subject; the questions that might be put to him are anticipated; his position on issues is deliberate and calculated. He rarely gets caught by surprise and he is very effective in bringing to bear, I think, rewards and sanctions on people (Allan Hawke, 21 February 2003).
