Tasmanian Peak Bodies Share Joint Vision
Tasmanian Peak Bodies share Joint Vision 6 February 2018 A coalition of the State’s leading peak bodies announced today Tasmania’s next State Government will be held publicly accountable for the outcomes achieved for all Tasmanians through measuring community wellbeing. Katrena Stephenson, CEO, LGAT, said the shared Statement of Priorities for Tasmania issued by a large coalition of peak bodies would serve as the basis for measurement of the next Government’s ability to focus on what Tasmanians want for their State. “We’ll start issuing our joint progress reports quarterly from the swearing in of the next State Government,” Dr Stephenson said. “Tasmanians want a State Government that is transparent and accountable against a Vision of the State we know they want: A strong network of communities that work to ensure current and future prosperity is within reach of every Tasmanian. “We stand here today as a unified group of diverse organisations that represent and provide services and support to the vast majority of Tasmanians across our State. “And together we are saying to all politicians—all those who aspire to represent Tasmanians— that it is time for them to try a new way of doing things so that we can achieve improved outcomes for every one of us. “It is time to set our self interest aside and focus on our common interest—the future prosperity, health and resilience of all Tasmanians. “This means working together to do things differently. It also means each of us having an equal opportunity to take part in our current and future economic prosperity.

Tasmania: Majority Or Minority Government? *
AUSTRALASIAN PARLIAMENTARY REVIEW Tasmania: Majority or Minority Government? * Michael Lester and Dain Bolwell PhD Candidate, Institute for the Study of Social Change, Department of Politics and International Relations, University of Tasmania Associate, Institute for the Study of Social Change, Department of Politics and International Relations, University of Tasmania * Double-blind reviewed article. INTRODUCTION While the outcome of the March 2018 Tasmanian State Election was predictable,1 the controversies that dogged the campaign were not. Yet it was the aftermath of the election that was most astonishing—not only to the public but also to members of Cabinet. Tasmania is different. Its parliamentary institutions are unusual and its electoral system is distinctive. So were the issues on which the March 2018 state election was fought. In the lead up to the election both major parties campaigned to govern alone or not at all—neither in minority nor in coalition with the Greens. As well as this apparently overarching concern, there were three other major issues prominent during the campaign—an acute housing shortage, the thousands of poker machines in pubs and clubs, and the surprise matter of gun control. Health, education, law and order, the economy and who would best manage the budget were, as usual, also policy battle grounds; however, the minority government fear campaign, a television blitz on the benefits of poker machines and considerable 1 N.

LABOR NEWSNEWS Octoberoctober 2008 2012 PREMIER’S MESSAGE an Abbott Federal Government Would Be a Disaster for Tasmania
LABORLABOR NEWSNEWS OctoberOctober 2008 2012 PREMIER’S MESSAGE An Abbott Federal Government would be a disaster for Tasmania. It’s difficult to overstate the damage that the federal Opposition leader’s policies would do to the Tasmanian economy and government services if he is ever elected Prime Minister. The single biggest threat is the Liberal Party’s stance on the distribution of GST revenue. Mainland Liberal Premiers are united in pushing for a per capita distribution of GST revenue, which would strip up to $700 million per annum from Tasmania’s budget. That’s the equivalent of $5000 for every Tasmanian household. Mr Abbott has consistently expressed sympathy and support for his Liberal colleague’s campaign. His claims that such an approach would not disadvantage Tasmania are laughable. Liberal Premiers are pursuing a change in the way GST revenue is distributed because they PREMIER LARA GIDDINGS want to get their hands on more of it. With a finite amount of cash available, giving more to WA, Victoria, Queensland and NSW must mean there’s less available for the smaller States. The impact on public services in Tasmania of a further massive reduction in GST revenue would be devastating. But the potential damage to Tasmania of an Abbott government does not end there. Mr Abbott’s pledge to repeal the price on carbon would strip a further $70 million per annum from Tasmania, as we benefit financially from our strong advantage in renewable energy. He has also pledged to abandon the NBN, which would cost Tasmania 800 jobs in the roll-out phase and jeopardise our place in the new digital economy.

9A Commissioner of Police
Submission to the Joint Select Committee of the Legislative Council and House of Assembly on ethical conduct, standards and integrity of the elected Parliamentary representatives and servants of the State August 2008 Commissioner of Police J Johnston CONTENTS 1.0 Introduction 2 2.0 The Operational Independence of the 4 Commissioner of Police 3.0 The Capacity of Tasmania Police to 10 Conduct Independent Investigations 4.0 Other Existing Mechanisms 16 5.0 Ethics Commission – Recommended Model 26 6.0 Summary of recommendations 33 7.0 Conclusion 35 Attachment A – Draft Guidelines Concerning the Release of 36 Information Concerning Political Investigations Attachment B – Outline of Complaint Process for Alleged 39 Misconduct in Recommended Model Attachment C – Summary of Features of Other Anti-Corruption 41 Bodies Bibliography 47 1 1.0 INTRODUCTION There is no single institution which can provide a panacea to the problem of corruption or misconduct. Instead, a diversity of agencies, laws, practices and ethical codes are required to effectively tackle misconduct and promote integrity (Brown, 2005). The existing mechanisms available in Tasmania to respond to misconduct and promote integrity include: Parliament; The Ombudsman; The State Service Commissioner; The Auditor-General; The Director of Public Prosecutions; Tasmania Police; Commissions of Inquiry; and Legislation – including the Freedom of Information Act 1991, the Public Interest Disclosures Act 2002, and relevant provisions of the State Service Act 2000 and the Local Government Act 1993. Mechanisms such as codes of conduct help to promote integrity, while mechanisms such as freedom of information legislation and the oversight provided by parliamentary committees and the Auditor-General promote transparency.

National Broadband Network Companies Amendment (Tasmania
Labor Senators' Dissenting Report 1.1 The intent of the National Broadband Network Companies Amendment (Tasmania) Bill 2014 is to legislate for the fulfilment of the promise Tasmanians believed was made to them prior to the 2013 election. Nothing in the Chair's Report addresses this fundamental issue. 1.2 Australians generally may already be immune to the ongoing saga of the Coalition’s broken promises. Not least of these was the promise made by the Minister for Communications and the Prime Minister in April 2013 that all premises would have access to download speeds of 25 Mbps by 20161. 1.3 So confident was the Prime Minister in this promise that on the night of the election in his “letter to the people of Australia” he wrote: We will deliver a new business plan for the NBN so that we can deliver faster broadband sooner and at less cost. I want our NBN rolled out within three years and Malcolm Turnbull is the right person to make this happen.2 1.4 The promise that all premises would have access to download speeds of 25 Mbps by 2016 was unashamedly broken by Minister Turnbull only three months after the election.3 1.5 The specifics of the promise made to Tasmanians were outlined in Senator Urquhart’s second reading speech. Key issues raised in the second reading speech are as follows. 1.6 The statement by TasICT Executive Officer Dean Winter on 27 May 2013 saying he was confident that the that the rollout would occur as planned because Mr Turnbull had written to assure him that the Coalition intended to honour existing fibre to the premises (FTTP) contracts.4 1.7 The issue came to the fore again on 15 August 2013 when the now Prime Minister released the ‘Economic Growth Plan for Tasmania’ that announced that the Coalition would only honour contracts “underway.” Mr Turnbull, aided by Senator Bushby, again reassured Tasmanians that the NBN would be completed under the 5 original contract to roll out FTTP across Tasmania.

2021 Annual Plan Progress Report
2021 ANNUAL PLAN PROGRESS REPORT JULY - SEPTEMBER 2020 2020/21 ANNUAL PLAN PROGRESS REPORT – Q1 Stronger Councils, Stronger Region A message from the CEO The first Quarterly Progress Report for the 2020/21 financial year shows that the team is off to a flying start. Details of last year’s impact will soon be published in our Annual Report and made available on our website. Our Coastal Pathway project, which spans the Latrobe, Devonport City and Central Coast municipalities, is progressing, and we continue to advocate for the additional funding required to make the Coastal Pathway a truly iconic tourism experience. Advocacy is an important part of our work, and centres around our List Of Regionally Important Projects. Last quarter, we signed a deed with the Australian Government, relating to their $4m commitment for farm vehicle washdown and effluent dumping facilities. The planning stage of this important project, which will firm up the most suitable locations and facility types, is now underway. All staff are predominantly field, or office based once again, with social distancing restrictions having eased. The cessation of separate “Cradle Coast NRM” branding marked the successful completion of our transition to a fully integrated business model in which our Economic Development, Natural Resource Management and Strategic Services staff working closely together for the good of the region. This unprecedented level of cooperation isn’t isolated to staff, but has also been embraced by our Board, our Regional NRM Committee and our Regional Economic Development Steering Group, meaning our unique part of the world is serviced by a unique regional development organisation.
