Waterholes: a sacred link to life and culture in remote First Nations communities "IndyWatch Feed Qld"

For First Nations people, connection to Country is vital, with land and water remaining central to culture.

According to new research on male migration across remote communities in central Australia, waterholes have been shown to have significant effect on patterns of migration.

But, poisoning or damage to waterholes could impact Indigenous storytelling and knowledge sharing.

National Radio News reporter, Amy OHalloran asked Researcher at the University of South Australia Dr John Binda Reid, why waterholes are important to First Nations people.

unspoken expectation: a burden on First Nations people in workplace cultural events "IndyWatch Feed Qld"

Each year Australia hosts a number of observed days and weeks, dedicated to First Nations people. From Reconciliation week, and Sorry Day through to the more celebratory NAIDOC week.

However, opinions around such cultural events in the workplace are mixed, with some First Nations academics saying Indigenous people are expected to bear the brunt of planning and educating non-indigenous people during these cultural events and often without added pay.

A recent survey further highlights 39% of First Nations participants said they carry the burden of additional cultural load in the form of extra work demands.

Creativity key in reducing plastic pollution "IndyWatch Feed Qld"

Trillions of pieces of plastic are in our oceans and its predicted that global plastic production is set to double by 2040.  The issue has since been termed by a leading scientist as a planetary crisis.

In a bid to explore how different countries are tackling plastic pollution, the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation has published a book, Ending Plastic Waste, which highlights stories across the globe bringing together 19 initiatives from 15 countries including Australia.

So, how are communities world-wide playing their part using creativity to mitigate the issue?

Townsville Airlines Cessna 208 Caravan VH-NXU First Visit into CQ at the Labona Station Airstrip - Plus More! "IndyWatch Feed Qld"

On Tuesday 4 July, it was interesting to note that Townsville Airlines Cessna 208 Caravan VH-NXU has (possibly?) made its first ever visit into Central Queensland, flying into the Labona Station Airstrip within Adani Australia's (Bravus Mining & Resources) Carmichael Coal Mine site from Cairns and then Townsville.  It then returned to those places.


File photo

VH-NXU was delivered and registered to Townsville Airlines in September 2022.  It was previously registered as N406CR.  VH-NXU seems to mostly operate out of Cairns Airport so if this is indeed its first visit to the region, it is a welcome sight!

Meanwhile, also on Tuesday 4 July, some of the 'usual' FIFO charter flights included Southern Air Beech 1900 VH-YSO visiting Moranbah Airport once again.  It arrived from Latrobe Valley and Bourke Dubbo and then departed back to Latrobe Valley and then eventually to Melbourne (Moorabbin).

DeGunst Transport P/L Textron (Cessna) 208 Caravan VH-NPZ operated from Bundaberg Airport and looked to fly in and out of Mackay Airport.  I presume the inclement weather in the area prevented it from landing at Nebo Aerodrome.

While Hinterland Aviation Cessna 208 Caravan VH-TFS also encountered bad weather and was unable to land at Mackay Airport while flying down from Townsville as HND2290.  It returned to Townsville without landing and obviously was unable to complete its usual run out to Labona.

The Queensland Police Service (Airwing) (State of Queensland) Raytheon B1900D VH-PSK flew down from Cairns and Townsville to Rockhampton Airport.  It then continued to Brisbane before later returning to Rockhampton Airport and then back to Cairns direct.

Which NSW councils need ward redistributions? "IndyWatch Feed Politics.au"

Prior to the 2021 NSW council elections, I analysed the population trends in another of Sydney councils which have been shouldering the bulk of Sydneys population growth. I wrote about Camden, Blacktown, a number of other councils, and an overall post.

Now as we get closer to the September 2024 elections, I have started paying attention to which NSW councils might be redrawing their ward boundaries.

Unfortunately there is no central record of the redistribution process, unlike in Victoria and Queensland. Each council handles redistributions through their regular decision-making process, usually involving a round of public consultation.

There are still some rules that apply to this process. Councils must make a final decision by 5 October 2023. Wards in New South Wales must elect the same number of councillors across a council area, and must be drawn so no ward varies from any other ward by more than 10% of enrolment. This process cant change the structure of the council the number of wards and number of councillors can only be changed with a referendum.

Some councils are obliged to redraw their ward boundaries, if wards deviated by each other by more than 10% over a specified time period. Councils can also choose to redraw outside of this situation, but this deviation obliges a council to make a change.

Its worth noting that I originally interpreted the legislation as requiring wards to fall within 10% of the average enrolment, which would have been much less strict in terms of forcing redistributions. Once realising this I had to re-run my calculations and update this blog post.

In todays post, Ill be looking at enrolment data to identify councils which are obliged to redraw their map, and those that have narrowly escaped.

When I was first looking into this issue, I downloaded the latest enrolment data for the 48 councils in the state which used wards in 2021 (at the time they were April 2023 data) to look for wards that were 10% higher than other wards in their council. But when I read the legislation, I realised that the trigger is based on a much earlier point in time.

Section 211 of the Local Government Act requires a redistribution if the council becomes aware that a ward deviates by more than 10% during a councils term of office, and if that difference remains at the end of the first year of the following term.

This means that a deviation would only force a redistribution if it had appeared during the previous council term. If a new deviation was to appear now, it would only trigger a redistri...
