In extreme conditions such as attending bushfires, plastic panels are simply not adequate. Newlans Coachbuilders have addressed this problem by designing and manufacturing aluminium replacement panels that will not rust or warp and can often be repaired after accident damage unlike plastic panels making them a one time investment and a long term budget saver. Newlans panels are easy to install and available pre-painted in fleet colours. Already widely used around Australia and New Zealand by most rural fire service orginisations Newlans aluminium replacement safety panels are a potentially life saving appliance upgrade.

Australian Country Newspapers And Development Journalism Australian country newspapers demonstrate a focus on their local community or communities which appears to be much stronger than that of their metropolitan counterparts. This focus is generally reflected in an emphasis on local news and the promotion of local concerns, individuals and achievements. The limited literature on country newspapers suggests this emphasis has contributed to country print journalism developing in directions significantly removed from those of contemporary urban journalism. This paper argues that while country newspaper journalism incorporates elements of conventional journalism, it has also evolved in ways which appear to have more in common with non-Western forms of journalism than with the journalism practised in major Australian cities. Kathryn Bowd University of South Australia ountry newspaper journalism has been described as the C“forgotten sector” of journalism in Australia (Woolford 1980: 17). It is an area frequently ignored – or, at best, mentioned in passing – in the literature.

  • Exploring the Impact of (Im)Mobilities on Rural and Regional Communities Report
    1 Rural and Regional Mobilities Final Report Introduction This Rural and Regional Mobilities Workshop: Exploring the Impact of (Im)Mobilities in Rural and Regional Communities was presented by the Hawke EU Centre for Mobilities, Migrations and Cultural Transformations on 26 September 2017 at the University of South Australia’s Mount Gambier Campus. The workshop was presented in association with La Trobe University’s Department of Social Inquiry and Centre for the Study of the Inland. Characterised as being fixed, stable and homogenous communities, rural and regional areas are often viewed as largely untouched by the mobility of cosmopolitan, globalising dynamics associated with fast-paced connected urban centres. These notions have been challenged in recent years in Australia and Europe with claims that rural and regional communities have also experienced significant changes with increasing forms of mobility across a number of areas involving rural-to-rural, rural-to-urban, urban- to-rural or international-to-rural migration. Indeed it has been argued that ‘mobility is central to the enactment of the rural… and the rural is at least as mobile as the urban’ (Bell and Osti 2010). The workshop was an opportunity for academics involved in research in regional and rural Australian communities as well as key regional leaders and stakeholders to learn from one another and engage with the challenges associated with changing regional and rural mobilities. A key aim of the workshop was to suggest recommendations that will enable regional and rural communities to effectively respond to these challenges. These challenges are not unique to the Australian context. We are also pleased that the Regional and Rural Mobilities Workshop was able to draw on the experiences and lessons learned from recent migration challenges in Europe (Germany) and New Zealand.

  • Aap Submission to the Senate Inquiry on Media Diversity
    AAP SUBMISSION TO THE SENATE INQUIRY ON MEDIA DIVERSITY AAP thanks the Senate for the opportunity to make a submission on the Inquiry into Media Diversity in Australia. What is a newswire A newswire is essentially a wholesaler of fact-based news content (text, pictures and video). It reports on politics, business, courts, sport and other news and provides this to other media outlets such as newspapers, radio and TV news. Often the newswire provides the only reporting on a subject and hence its decisions as to what to report play a very important role in informing Australians about matters of public interest. It is essential democratic infrastructure. A newswire often partners with other global newswire agencies to bring international stories to a domestic audience and also to take domestic stories out to a global audience. Newswires provided by news agencies have traditionally served as the backbone of the news supply of their respective countries. Due to their business model they contribute strongly to the diversity of media. In general there is a price for a defined number of circulation – be it printed papers, recipients of TV or radio broadcasters or digital recipients. The bigger the circulation, the higher the price thus making the same newswire accessible for small media with less purchasing power as well as for large media conglomerates with strong financial resources.1 ​ This co-operative business model has been practically accepted world-wide since the founding of the Associated Press (AP) in the USA in the mid-19th century. Newswire agencies are “among the oldest ​ media institutions to survive the evolution of media production from the age of the telegraph to the age of 2 platform technologies”.

  • Australian Associated Press Submission to the Senate Inquiry on the Treasury Laws Amendment (News Media and Digital Platforms Mandatory Bargaining Code) Bill 2020
    AUSTRALIAN ASSOCIATED PRESS SUBMISSION TO THE SENATE INQUIRY ON THE TREASURY LAWS AMENDMENT (NEWS MEDIA AND DIGITAL PLATFORMS MANDATORY BARGAINING CODE) BILL 2020 Australian Associated Press (AAP) thanks the Senate for an opportunity to comment on the Treasury Laws Amendment (News Media and Digital Platforms Mandatory Bargaining Code) Bill 2020 (the Bill). ​ ​ The Treasurer has stated that “[t]he News Media and Digital Platforms Mandatory Bargaining Code is ​ ​ a world-leading initiative. It is designed to level the playing field and to ensure a sustainable and viable Australian media landscape. It's a key part of the government's strategy to ensure that the Australian economy is able to take full advantage of the benefits of digital technology, supported by appropriate regulation to protect key elements of Australian society. One such key element is a strong and sustainable Australian news media landscape.”1 ​ AAP supports the Bill in its current form as it assists ‘retail’ media, that is, news media who have a direct-to-consumer “News Source” (as defined in the Bill), at a time when the industry is in a state of deep and prolonged crisis. However whilst the Bill helps AAP’s retail media customers, it does not contemplate a critical pillar of competition and media diversity in the news media industry in Australia - namely wholesale providers of news. One of the most important wholesale suppliers of news content in nearly every country is the national newswire. In Australia, this independent wholesale newswire service is fulfilled by AAP, which has been covering the news continuously for over 85 years.

While “local” is a contested term, it has traditionally been used in the Australian regional news media context to refer to issues, events and people occurring or situated within the primary geographi- cal circulation area of a print newspaper. This emphasis on the local extends from what news outlets are reporting to how they report it – and the kinds of understandings they promote about what it means to be part of a regional community. The public-sphere role of such outlets means they are ideally placed to communicate to news audiences ideas about local identity and community.
