ELECTION CRUNCH TIME L Local l candidates’ final pitch for your vote INSIDE

TO WIN:

A farming family getaway Working with wildlife all in a day’s work...

PAGE 12 ❱❱

FARMING families are working through one of their toughest times in living memory. Dubbo Photo News wants to help – even in a small way – by offering one of our region’s farming families the chance to take a break for a weekend and get some R&R in Dubbo. Dubbo Photo News has partnered with local businesses to create this ‘time out’ for a farming

family of four on Saturday and Sunday, May 11 and 12. We’ve organised a night’s accommodation, dinner, an entertaining evening at the Australian Bee Gees show at the theatre, breakfast, plus a petrol voucher to help cover the cost of getting to town and back. To enter, we’re hoping interested farming families will take their minds off the drought for a

while, sit around the dinner table at home and come up with their funniest and favourite pet moment on the farm, then share that story with us for your chance to win. Full details are inside today’s paper. Pictured above are sponsors of the Dubbo Photo News Farming Family Getaway – back, Inland Petroleum’s Colin Cottee, Alchemy on Victoria owner Chris Davis,

Quality Inn owner Kerrieanne Nichols, middle, Dubbo Regional Theatre manager Linda Christof, Alchemy on Victoria owner Ngaire Davis, and front, 178 Restaurant manager Jo Turner. They all have something special to contribute toward making sure the lucky winners of the Farming Family Getaway have a weekend to remember. PHOTO: DPN/WENDY MERRICK

CHINA CRISIS BECOMES DUBBO OPPORTUNITY EXCLUSIVE

By YVETTE AUBUSSON-FOLEY DUBBO could become a major centre for recycling in NSW, creating jobs and other business opportunities, under a plan being developed by Dubbo Regional Council. As a result of China’s decision to stop accepting recyclables from countries includ-

ing Australia, a backlog is starting to build up here. That crisis could be turned into opportunity for Dubbo, mayor Ben Shields told Dubbo Photo News exclusively. Paul Green MLC, who chaired a parliamentary inquiry in to waste management in 2018, has already identified a source of state funds to invest in the proposed recycling centre here. Only one third of the $2.2 billion collected under a state Waste Levy is cur-

rently going to waste issues, according to Mr Green – the other two thirds is going into general coffers. Mr Green would rather see that money invested in a major new recycling centre such as the one being proposed for Dubbo. “In the true spirit of that collection it should be going into projects like this,” Mr Green said.

DUBBO CITY LIFE

Rescue training program An intensive NSW SES Rescue Training Course was held in Wellington over the past week, held in partnership with Corrective Services with a number of their Correctional Officers participating. An SES spokesperson described it as “an exciting project�. The program has been set up by the Wellington SES and it is setting the standard for the rest of the state. Thumbs up to all involved.

Comment by TIM PANKHURST MANAGING EDITOR

A sad week of sobering thoughts CHRISTCHURCH. Could there be a city whose name better projects an image of peacefulness, parklands and loving people? Facebook. Could there be a company more irresponsible to its duty of care, and could there be a collective of company executives who has more blood on their hands? Facebook has empowered people like the man who committed last Friday’s terror attack in Christchurch. The fact that Facebook allows anyone to live stream any thing they want, whenever they want, is fraught with dangers. That’s what happened in Christchurch – the whole horrific event was livestreamed on Facebook, and at time of writing many of the millions of copies that followed are still out there. The civil libertarians will argue it’s the public’s inarguable right to have such freedoms of speech, but such freedoms must come with responsibility – and those civil libertarians are living in La La Land if they truly believe that every human being on the planet has the common sense and decency to do the right thing with that right. What Facebook and other social media platforms hide behind is their claim that they are ‘connecting’ our world, which is a nice ideal, but as a corporation they have a corporate responsibility to mitigate any and all dangers inherent with that service they provide. Facebook gave the Christchurch terrorist a ‘weapon’ which empowered him to do what he did. Hapless Facebook PR people ran around in the aftermath of the live streaming of the Christchurch attack, trying to clean up

after themselves. A shame Facebook bigwig Mark Zuckerberg hasn’t been confronted by the media, or more appropriately the family of one of the victims, to ask him, ‘Why?’ Imagine if Facebook was owned by government. We’d all already be outraged. But, for some bizarre reason, because it’s an American company, our outrage is only being tentatively, awkwardly and far-tooslowly growing as a result of countless atrocities such as this. My best guess is that, for the vast majority who use social media to keep in touch with friends, they can’t equate that tool with something that is being used to incite violence and other atrocities. Sadly, some commentators have this week attempted to cloud the issue by pointing the finger of blame at far right commentators or far left commentators in the mainstream media. I’ll argue we should forget about them for now and get focussed on the extremist views that exist online,

well beyond mainstream media. This week Prime Minister Scott Morrison targeted the tech giants of what he called the “lawless internet�, saying he’ll push the G20 for a global agreement to clamp down on social media platforms that are used to promote violence. Forgive my frustration, but this lawlessness has been going on for years. Why have another 50 innocent people had to die before a politician acts, or in this case just speaks – whether he or any of the other ‘outspoken’ politicians we’ve heard from actually turn their words into actions remains to be seen. A few more sobering facts for us all to contemplate: CNN reported on Sunday that school kids in Christchurch, who were in lockdown for their own safety during and in the immediate aftermath of the attack, were still able to watch the shocking footage online thanks to Facebook – while they were behind those locked doors and no doubt in

considerable fear. Unbelievable. In his manifesto, the man who committed this atrocity wrote that he developed his beliefs on the “the internet, of course�. “You will not find the truth anywhere else,� he claimed. I wonder if the social media giants are proud of that sort of endorsement.

Make your vote count IN this final week of the state election campaign, it depends which expert you choose to listen to as to which party is going to win, lose or draw on Saturday. There’s a degree of gamble involved in voting this time around. The long-term result for our electorate could well depend on the overall state result, as well as the bargaining power whoever we elect locally ends up with. If Labor wins a majority, it stands to reason having a local Labor member will likely give us a better result. Likewise, if the Coalition wins a majority, it stands to reason having a local Nationals member will likely give us a better result. If it’s a hung parliament, having an independent will arguably give us a better result. I’m not a betting person. I’m one of those “Melbourne Cup sweep is my limit� people. But someone has brought to my attention that Sportsbet is offering odds on the outcome of the election for Dubbo – they reckon the Coalition is most likely to win, next most likely is the Independent, then Labor. I really don’t know how they come up with their odds – I’m just passing them on for interest’s sake... and to lighten this column. My tip. Don’t gamble with your vote. Think carefully about who you think will best serve us for the next few years. Today’s paper includes comments from most of the local candidates. Unfortunately, despite the best efforts of three Dubbo Photo News journalists covering three different election angles, some candidates didn’t respond. I can assure you we tried. feedback@dubbophotonews.com.au

Police crack organised crime ring

Clint Lundholm

Born into a well-known racing family in Coonamble, racing was always going to be in Clint’s blood, so a jockey apprenticeship was an easy career choice for him. My grandfather John Lundholm trained out here for possibly 60 years. He passed a couple of years back. Our family has always been in racing, he started it off and my father worked under him for many years. I rode as a jockey for him when I was 15, then I moved my jockey apprenticeship to Dubbo when I was 17. I did some stable and track work for a couple of years, then I was offered a job to train horses here in Dubbo. Pop was slowing up at that stage, even though he didn’t want to, and I was just kicking off. My parents moved to Dubbo and Dad ended up working for me. We joined forces here and kicked off a good training partnership. Darren Hyde and I both qualified first and second in the Country Championships recently. There is a race in each area and there are eight different areas for NSW. The grand final on April 6 in Randwick is a $500,000 final, so the first two horses in each area will meet in that one race to do battle. I think at the moment we are a hundred to one, that’s their opinion. We qualified, we raced well here and I’m sure we will be competitive. We can’t wait to get to Sydney. Darren Hyde and I are always in competition, but off track we’re all mates. Out there is all business, you always want your horses to do well. At the end of the day we can all go and have a beer and a yarn and get along, it’s a really good racing community here. How do you pick a good horse? It’s your own opinion really, people have different thoughts on horses. Do you own any horses yourself? I only own a couple of shares. I’ve got my grandfather’s horse, the last horse he bought, so that was his opinion of a horse that he wanted. We’ve had a bit of fun, we race him through the family, he’s a good little horse. At the moment we are training about 32 horses. It’s a lot of work with long hours, it is seven days a week. Looking after the welfare of the horses is always first. It is hard to get workers because it is such a full-on job. I treat every race as it is. I love to win and I love to see my horses doing well because I know how much goes into it, our team works really hard. When you get that win it makes everyone feel so much better, it’s a pat on the back for everyone and it trickles down from your family to the workers and everyone else, it’s a massive support system. Do you miss being a jockey? Yes of course I do, it was easier. It was also hard because I had to struggle with my weight. I was such a tall jockey which made it hard to make weight all the time. As a jockey, if you were beaten on the horse, that was the end of it,

you don’t have to think about it again. Now if my horse gets beaten as a trainer, I have owners to talk to and I need to work out what went wrong, if there was an injury or the horse was sick. It’s a lot more challenging being a trainer. To be able to win a race for my grandfather was a very special moment. Another special moment was to have won the Dubbo Cup with a horse that I picked out at the Dubbo Sales that a bloke bought for me. It was the horse I wanted, and he won the Silver Goblet (a feature two-year-old race

in Dubbo). He then went on to win a feature Dubbo Cup, he has been a very special horse. I’ve recently become the owner of him as the original owner passed away late last year, and I was lucky enough to have been given the horse. I was born into it and I love doing this job, it’s full on but I love it. ••• Above: Clint with his daughter Bella Lundholm and horse “Sons Of Bourke”.

A TIP-OFF from a member of the public has resulted in a sweep of arrests in Dubbo and others in the Hunter Valley and Newcastle areas, bringing an organised crime syndicate to its knees, according to police. “We’re not talking about people down at the pub selling one gram of cannabis. We’re talking about people we will allege are doing something for financial gain at a significant level,” Orana LAC Superintendent Peter McKenna said at a press conference in Dubbo on Monday. “The persons involved in this criminal syndicate come not only from Dubbo but from the Hunter Valley and Newcastle areas as well. They were all involved together in the ongoing supply of a commercial quantity of prohibited drugs,” he said. The arrests mark the end of an eight-month investigation known as Strike Force BATO involving more than 80 police in the field inclusive of Orana Mid-Western PD, Hunter Valley PD, Australian Border Force and the NSW Crime Commission.

Orana LAC Superintendent Peter McKenna

A Falcon V8 Supercar, $140,000 in cash, a GTS HT Monaro, a further three cars, seven motorbikes, a tractor, and a quad bike were all seized as proceeds of crime. Police also seized cannabis which has been estimated to have a potential street value of almost $900,000. “Every single police operation generally involves some form of intelligence gained from the public. “We can’t stress enough how important it is that the public do come forward with information whenever they have it, whether it be about drug supply, property theft or any other type of crime. “That’s why we always ask them to utilise CrimeStoppers on the 1800 333 000 number, or contact their local police if they have any information,” Supt Peter McKenna urged.

ROAD SAFETY

Renovation work ramps up on 50-year-old bridge By KEN SMITH

THERE’S been an increase in activity around and underneath Dubbo’s L.H. Ford Bridge this week, as Roads and Maritime Services (RMS) ramps up work to upgrade the 50-year-old bridge. An exclusion zone is now in place on the Macquarie River near and under the L.H. Ford Bridge to allow the safe construction of two new concrete piers. The exclusion zone either side of the bridge will be clearly marked and will include buoys, flashing lights and

signage, the RMS said. Waterway users will not be able to use the area directly under the bridge during this work and will not have access through the area. The river closure is necessary to manage the safety of the community and workers during work which is expected to take up to eight months. The walking and cycling track on the city side of the Macquarie River will remain open. In November 2017, Roads & Maritime released its “L.H. Ford Bridge Strengthening Project,

Mitchell Highway Dubbo Review of environmental factors” report. That report stated: “The L.H. Ford Bridge was opened to traffic in 1969. It is a 613-metre-long, reinforced concrete bridge with a post tensioned box girder section that spans the Macquarie River. “The bridge supports two-way single-lane traffic and pedestrian footpaths and is in fair to good condition. “In order for the bridge to fulfil its intended design life of 100 years and continue servicing the community of Dubbo and re-

gional travellers, major maintenance is required,” the report recommended. Apart from the construction of two new concrete piers in the Macquarie River, the current work project will also involve upgrading the deck of the bridge. The work to build two new piers will provide better support to the bridge to accommodate additional heavy vehicle loads, RMS said. Changed traffic conditions will be necessary during stages of the bridge work, which is expected to be completed by early next year.

THE Australian Institute of Health and Welfare (AIHW) has released a report which shows higher rates of alcohol and other drug treatment outside major cities. The report, titled “Alcohol and other drug use in regional and remote Australia: consumption, harms and access to treatment 2016–17”, presents ‘burden of disease’ analysis to quantify the impact of drug and alcohol use. This measures the combined impact of dying prematurely, as well as the impact of living with disease. The report is regarded as an important resource to inform policies and programs to reduce the harms that may result from the use of alcohol and other drugs.

Western youngsters benefit from funding YULUWIRRI Kids-Coonabarabran Preschool and Long Day Care Centre was visited last week by Member for Parkes Mark Coulton to mark the granting of $17,925 by the Coalition Government’s Stronger Communities Programme (SCP) for a soft-fall, shade and play equipment, as well as a $40,000 grant under the Community Child Care Fund. Mr Coulton also visited the Mendooran Preschool which will use a $5552 grant, also under the SCP, to paint the preschool. “I can see what a wonderful difference this will make to the facility for both staff and children,” Mr Coulton said.

STATE ELECTION 2019

Labor promises focus on forestry and freight By NATALIE HOLMES ON a cloudy morning in Dubbo, Country Labor candidate Stephen Lawrence pledged his support for a bright future for Dubbo’s Indigenous Concepts and Networking (ICaN) nursery. The Forestry Corporation’s Cobra Street native plant nursery was let to ICaN in July 2014 on a five-year lease. It is now a centre for Aboriginal social programs, including work for the dole, disability access and training, carer programs, cultural gardens and employment strategies. Mr Lawrence is impressed by the work of ICaN and hopes to see it

continue in the future. “I have visited many times and know some of the hundreds of Aboriginal people who have received assistance,” he said. IcaN’s James Riley said “the facility added an important vehicle to our engagement strategy”. At the nursery on Monday, Mr Lawrence also announced plans to hold a public inquiry into the Inland Rail Route if a Labor Government is elected this weekend. He was joined by Shadow Minister for Finance Clayton Barr who said local communities had expressed concerns about the project which included the route passing

through flood plains and not making use of existing rail corridors. “I attended a NSW Farmers Forum here in Dubbo and heard white hot anger from farmers affected by this project at the lack of transparency and arrogant over-ruling of local knowledge,” he said. The NSW Farmers’ Inland Rail Taskforce earlier in the year raised concerns that the interests of transport companies seemed to be dictating terms in the project, particularly on a 307km section of the proposed route between Narromine and Narrabri that will bypass the existing rail corridor in favour of a route that affects up to 300 properties.

EMU Logic in Tooraweenah enjoyed six live crosses on Sunday, March 10, from the “Weekend Sunrise” TV program, broadcast during their visit to the region recently. Having the program visit has been a great asset to the Tooraweenah community and especially the emu farm where owners Penny and Phil Henley have noticed an increase in sales since the program went to air. The visit from the Weekend Sunrise weather team was paid for as part Dubbo Regional Council’s and Destination NSW’s co-operative $250,000 Dubbo and Great Western Plains destination marketing campaign.

Dubbo is popular, and it’s climbing up the ranks of places to go, so I think it’s Dubbo’s turn to have something big, so how about we put something in Dubbo… what about: ‘The Big Message Sticks’. Message sticks symbolise a form of communication across the hundreds of Aboriginal clans placed throughout Australia. There were over 600 different languages, so you can imagine that message sticks were extremely important for communication. Think of message sticks as a kind of postman for Dubbo that was their original purpose after all! I propose that we build GIANT message sticks in respect of our ancestors from long ago to tell people of the wonderful place that Dubbo is. The message sticks, standing at 15 metres tall, and 5 metres wide, will lead the way to Dubbo and tell our story from all around! The message sticks tell a story of peace, happiness, and equality. They tell a story of the real Dubbo. Message sticks enhanced communication within Australia, so what’s a better place to put The Big Message Sticks in than Dubbo!

STATE ELECTION 2019

Decider for Dubbo With the possibility of a hung parliament in this Saturday’s State Election, NATALIE HOLMES asked all of the candidates their opinions about the future of the seat of Dubbo. Two party representatives and the only independent candidate responded.

Dugald Saunders, National Party (currently in office, represented by Troy Grant)

Joanne Cotterill, Flux Party

If elected, what is your immediate strategy? I will hit the ground running. There is a lot to do. I will get my office functional as quickly as possible and take the steps necessary to implement the election promises I have made, and prepare for a busy four years! If not elected, what are your hopes for the future government? I hope any future government never again forgets the importance of regions like ours as we have seen in the past from Labor and Independents. There is a precedent for country NSW being cast aside with no new regional hospitals built during 16 years of Labor. I hope whatever happens that all the hard work of the Nationals over the past eight years is continued and built on. What would be your main concern if another candidate was elected instead of you? If another candidate is elected, I hope they always fight for the electorate and every town in it – big and small. Labor won’t care about Dubbo and will starve it of funding. Independents will always be outside the room knocking to get in. I hope any candidate can find a way to continue to get our fair share. How do you rate your chances against the other candidates? The voting public is very smart. I think people will ignore the spin, and will know which candidate can actually deliver the services and facilities they need. I trust the judgement of the voters. How have you allocated your preference votes? I am asking voters to just put a 1 in the square next to my name. If a voter wishes, they can keep going from 2 to 7. What are your thoughts on a potential hung parliament? Most commentators and election analysts including pre-eminent expert Malcolm Mackerras are predicting the Coalition will be returned with a reduced majority, but a majority nonetheless. How effective will you be if elected in this situation? I know I can be very effective no matter what the situation. The reality is a Nationals or Labor State Member would be far more effective than an Independent who won’t be able to achieve very much at all on their own. An Independent in this electorate who supports a non-conservative government will quickly incur the wrath of the electorate and be thrown out at the following election.

If elected, what is your immediate strategy? My immediate strategy would be to give everyone in the electorate the chance to sign up to the Flux voting platform. I would work to make sure all government decisions are put into the voting app that is accessible and neutral so that people can vote on them. I would work with community leaders to assist them in making their opinion public so that the electorate can delegate their votes to someone they know and trust if they are unsure how they personally want to vote. If not elected, what are your hopes for the future government? I hope that all future governments will implement a process whereby they use technology to securely, quickly and transparently consult with their electorate and then vote to actually represent their electorate and not their party, lobby groups or their own opinion. What would be your main concern if another candidate was elected instead of you? My main concern is no other candidate has in place any plans (or means) to consult regularly with their electorate on decision-making. The current parliament voted on over 400 pieces of legislation since the last election. You can be sure that your last member voted on something that mattered to you. How many times did your previous “representative” ask you how they should represent you? How do you rate your chances against the other candidates? SportsBet is currently giving me the worst chance of any candidate in Dubbo so I would be a fool if I did not take that type of feedback into account. I see this election as only one battle in the war to ensure that democracies continue to represent the people. I am fighting to win the that war and the war must always take priority over the battle. How have you allocated your preference votes? In the true spirit of democracy, I have not allocated my preference votes. I believe that electors can decide for themselves what their preferences are. What is more telling is that every other party has not allocated preferences to Flux. This should tell you how committed they are to actually representing the people as opposed to getting power through back door deals. What are your thoughts on a potential hung parliament? Voters across NSW are starting

to realise that their voice is more powerful if they have an independent or minor party representing them. I believe that this realisation will be followed by an even more advanced realisation: that they need people in parliament committed to finding out what they want and committed to voting accordingly every time. How effective will you be if elected in this situation? Elected into the seat of Dubbo in the situation of a hung parliament would see the people of Dubbo having complete control over the NSW parliament because they would have complete control over how I voted as their representative.

Mathew Dickerson, Independent If elected, what is your immediate strategy? If elected, my immediate strategy is to continue to work on already established relationships within Parliament regardless of which party eventually holds power. Tony McGrane was very effective in building relationships with people – regardless of which party they represented – and I would continue my previous work in relationship building. I would also work on additional communication strategies within the electorate. I have worked hard over the last 10 months to be accessible to the entire electorate and would continue that strategy to ensure I can be an effective voice for the electorate. If not elected, what are your hopes for the future government? One of the great frustrations I have with this current Government is that this electorate specifically, and regional NSW in general, has lost its voice. It is clear to me that the views of the people in this area are not being well represented by the incumbent party. We see many examples of this with amalgamations, the greyhound debacle, and soaring power prices with unwanted privatisations. Whatever the result, I would hope that the newly formed Government has a focus on listening to this electorate and delivering true representation and opportunities for advancement and growth for regional NSW. What would be your main concern if another candidate was elected instead of you? While standing at pre-polling, a voter took me aside and told me they no longer voted for a party but voted for the individual they believe best satisfied four key ingredients. Firstly, a long-term and demonstrated passion for this area. Secondly, experience in being able to create change and deliver outcomes as demonstrated in previous roles. Thirdly, a high level of intelligence and (fourthly) a track record of working incredibly hard and the ability to

continue working hard for this electorate. My concern if another candidate was elected would be that the electorate has missed a fantastic and rare opportunity to have someone with all of those capabilities not represent this electorate. How do you rate your chances against the other candidates? When I started my campaign in May 2018, I knew it was going to be difficult. The incumbent party received a 60.5 per cent primary vote at the 2015 election. I was starting from 0 per cent. The only way I know how to attack a difficult problem is through innovation and hard work. I have put in the hard work and tried a number of different initiatives and approaches to ensure a great alternative to the incumbent party. I have given myself every available opportunity to win the seat and, although I will be incredibly disappointed if I don’t win, I certainly won’t have any regrets about a lack of effort or application if I am not successful. How have you allocated your preference votes? I have not allocated any preferences. I have asked voters to place a number one next to my name and then, although it is not compulsory, I encourage voters to then number every square. My belief is that by voters numbering every square, it exercises their full democratic power and will deliver the best possible candidate. What are your thoughts on a potential hung parliament? The pundits, pollsters and punters all point to a hung Parliament. In my lifetime, I have only ever witnessed one hung Parliament in the history of NSW elections. In 1991, Nick Greiner was only able to form a coalition government with Independent help. The four Independents in 1991 were able to deliver incredible outcomes for their electorates, and helped reform the Government with a comprehensive memorandum of understanding that concentrated on issues of accountability. The eminently sensible four-year fixed term of Parliament was introduced by the Independents. Further, the independence of the judiciary; whistle-blower protection for public servants; political parties and candidates declaring donations; strengthened roles for the Ombudsman and the introduction of the parliamentary estimates committee. How effective will you be if elected in this situation? If the result of this election is a hung Parliament, an Independent will be incredibly effective. To quote Joe Hildebrand, “There is no surer way to get your electorate’s streets paved with gold than in a minority government where independents hold the balance of power.” As with 1991, Independents will have the ability to hold any government to account and specifically deliver incredible outcomes to this electorate and regional NSW in general. What a wonderful opportunity for the people in this electorate. A hung parliament with an Independent in the seat of Dubbo will be the best possible outcome for this seat.

Bed cleaning row prompts strike

Mobile coverage boost for remote Western NSW

By JOHN RYAN

AGAINST the backdrop of a giant construction crane at Dubbo Base Hospital and the skeleton of a massive building half completed, dozens of Health Services Union (HSU) members walked off the job for four hours last Thursday with a list of grievances they claim just weren’t being addressed. HSU public health division deputy manager Cindy Paull said the hospital was understaffed and union members were being forced to do work that wasn’t in their job description, impacting on patient and staff safety as well as stressing out workers. “This concern has been going on since 2016. Yes, they are getting a brand new building here but, like anything, you can build the Taj Mahal but unless you’ve got the staff to put in it and service it correctly, the community’s going to be at risk. “It’s nice to have a shiny new building but unless you’ve got the correct staff and the right staffing levels within that building, that building may as well not even be here,” Mrs Paull said. “There are staff stressed

The Health Services Union called strike action at Dubbo Hospital last Friday. The union said workers were frustrated by a management directive that Health and Security Assistants and Hospital Assistants should be responsible for sanitising soiled beds.

out on a regular occurrence because they know that this conflict is going to be here every day. This isn’t something that happens just today and then doesn’t happen for a month, this is ongoing. “So they’re coming in here and having this conflict on a daily basis, on an hour to hour basis, so it’s ongoing and as anybody would know, confrontation on a regular basis can be very draining on the system and then you end up with fatigue and people going off on stress leave,” she said. HSU NSW Secretary Gerard Hayes said the heart of the problem was that workers were frus-

trated by a management directive that Health and Security Assistants (HSAs) and Hospital Assistants should be responsible for sanitising soiled beds – a task that is outside the relevant awards for either occupation. “Workers are angry that the Western NSW Local Health District has been ignoring their concerns over issues such as the sanitisation of beds since 2016,” Mr Hayes said. “Hospital management is now trying to cover its tracks by changing the Position Descriptions for these workers to include a vague reference to maintaining beds, without consulting workers or their

union.” Tied up in the brawl are union claims that hospital management sent an email to nursing staff advising them to order hospital and security assistants to clean soiled beds, and if not, to take the names of recalcitrant workers so they could be performance-managed. Cindy Paull said staff believe they’re being bullied. “We have got a resolution that we passed back in 2016 that none of our members would sanitise the beds here at Dubbo Base,” she said. All this amid claims that patients and hospital staff could be at risk if security

workers are held up from responding to a crisis because they’re cleaning beds. “Obviously while they’re gowned up and they’re cleaning a bed and what not, when they then get a call to actually respond to a security incident down in the Emergency Department they obviously have to get out of that equipment and that clothing and respond to that incident,” Mrs Paull said. A Western NSW Local Health District (WNSWLH) spokesperson issued a statement which said, “In 2017 there were several meetings to discuss that Health and Security Assistants (HSAs) and Hospital Assistants should be responsible for sanitising soiled beds. “On November 1, 2017, the LHD advised the HSU that the relevant industrial award supports that staff undertaking these roles are required to sanitise beds. The WNSWLHD received no reply from the HSU since that time and felt the matter had been resolved. “Continued negotiations to avoid this action occurred this morning, however, it has not been resolved at this time.”

PEOPLE living in the Far West and North West areas of NSW can now look forward to improved mobile phone coverage thanks to the Australian Government’s $220 million mobile black spot program. “The locations for five new Telstra base stations include Tilpa, Silverton Exchange, Enngonia, Pimpara Lake (near Packsaddle) and Naree Station (near Yantabulla),” Federal Member for Parkes Mark Coulton said. “Improved mobile coverage in each of these locations will help keep our businesses connected, our families to stay in touch, and it means we can better access health and online services on the go.”

Library card gives access to on-demand streaming NEVER underestimate the power of a library card! Macquarie Regional Library members now have access to more than 30,000 films for free via the on-demand film streaming service Kanopy. Kanopy provides films of unique social and cultural value, which are often difficult or impossible to access elsewhere, and programming that features diversity, with a wide array of foreign language films, and films on race, current affairs, award-winning documentaries, film festival favourites, indie and classic films, and world cinema, a Library spokesperson said. Kanopy has an entire section dedicated to films and programs for children, with hundreds of new titles are added every month.

Professional strongman and weightlifting champion Bill Clark (USA) has muscled his way into Guinness World Records history by setting the record for most license plates torn in one minute. The competitive powerlifter was able to tear an impressive 23 US government issued license plates in half, during his attempt in New York in August last year. The license plates used were not cut or scored, and each was handed to Bill one at a time before he used his bare hands to tear them into two separate pieces, even sustaining a few cuts along the way.

WESTERN NSW Community Legal Centre (WNSWCLC) welcomed Country Labor’s recent announcement to fund a detox and rehabilitation clinic in Dubbo, and has called on the Coalition to match the commitment. “The evidence of need for these services is overwhelming and it is time they acted to address the needs of our communities,” WNSWCLC’s principal solicitor Patrick O’Callaghan said. “All of this is significant because it contributes to closing the gap and to promoting a positive cycle of healthy living within our Aboriginal communities,” WNSWCLC’s domestic violence service Aboriginal support worker Mellissa Shennan said.

While not necessarily solving any pressing regional issues, there were certainly a lot of laughs in the lead up to the Saturday, March 23, state election.

Working with wildlife is all in a day’s work for Jo

BY NATALIE HOLMES

DEALING with dangerous animals is all in a day’s work for zoo and wildlife veterinary nurse Jo Milgate, whose role involves regular contact with lions, tigers, elephants and plenty of reptiles. Explaining that her job combines her love of creatures and their care, Mrs Milgate says that working at the Taronga Western Plains Wildlife Hospital is both exciting and rewarding. “I have always loved working in the veterinary industry and wanted to combine my passion for wildlife and exotic species with veterinary nursing and conservation,” she said. Mrs Milgate has been in the position for some 15 years and pointed out that there are many different pathways towards a career in this field. “A Certificate IV in veterinary

nursing or equivalent, zookeeper’s certificate and experience in the industry or something similar like agriculture, wildlife carer groups or field work,” she said. “There are some university degrees that may also be beneficial but not essential. I did further post-graduate study to help with my job and have a Masters in Captive Vertebrate Management.” This qualification puts Mrs Milgate in good stead for caring for a vast range of animals on a daily basis. “Lizards, birds, frogs, mammals and turtles are just some examples. “As a zoo and wildlife veterinary nurse we are responsible for caring for the animals in hospital. We receive a lot of injured wildlife from the public and need to know how to handle,

medicate, hospitalise and rehabilitate a broad range of species. Our team of nurses also assist our veterinarians with anaesthesia, hospitalisation, husbandry and quarantine of all the zoo’s animals. It’s a big job!” Mrs Milgate said there are obvious risks to working with dangerous animals, and precautions need to be taken to ensure everyone’s safety and wellbeing. “When caring for wild animals, especially injured wildlife, we need to make sure we are confident in our handling techniques to not only prevent harm to ourselves but also the patient,” she said. Not only is Mrs Milgate’s job unusual, but it’s also pretty exciting. “Most people find my job exciting, as I do,” she said. “It’s not a common job. There are probably less than 100 peo-

ple that do this as their career. I also find that a lot of people don’t realise what I actually do and when I explain my role at the zoo, it’s not what most people have in mind.” Mrs Milgate said that many locals don’t know that the zoo accepts injured wildlife to be treated at the Wildlife Hospital. “It’s a service that we provide to our community and wider region and our cases are growing. We are currently averaging more than 600 wildlife cases each year. The animals in our care are looked after by specialist professionals in this field and to have this available to our area is amazing.” For someone who grew up on the land, Mrs Milgate says she loves her job and the rural lifestyle. “I can’t imagine being anywhere else.”

THE LEARNING HUB

“Dubbo the best destination for doctors” The School of Rural Health team believes Dubbo is the new best destination for doctors. The clinical school is selling the Dubbo region as the premiere place to grow an amazing medical career by taking a roadshow to Tasmania to put the city in front of medical professionals from across the nation and the world. MORE than a dozen of Dubbo’s doctors, nurses, researchers and health staff will be heading down to Hobart this month to promote the region at Australia’s largest rural health conference. The School of Rural Health has joined forces with the Western NSW Local Health District to launch a campaign called ‘Central West NSW – Advance Your Career, Transform Your Lifestyle’, which will see them promote the many amazing opportunities there are to live and work in the region. Dubbo is on track to become a major hub for medical care and education, with the $241 million upgrade of the hospital underway, the $35 million Western Cancer Centre in the works, and the new University of Sydney Dubbo Medical School set to launch in 2021. “It makes Dubbo a very attractive alternative to the big cities for those who are working and training in the medical field,” School of Rural Health marketing officer Nikki Roberts said. “Not only can you practice in a brand-new state-of-the-art hospital, but the new Dubbo Medical School will offer opportunities for teaching and supervising

medical students. “And the best part is you’ll be living in a beautiful and vibrant regional city. Dubbo offers the best of both worlds – you can advance your career and get ahead professionally, all while enjoying a lovely relaxed lifestyle, especially for those with young families,” she said. The National Rural Health Conference is being held in Hobart from March 24-27 and will attract more than 1200 professionals from the rural health and medical field. The School of Rural Health will be hosting an exhibition booth at the conference as well as sponsoring the Networking Evening, all with the aim of showcasing the Central West and the opportunities available. “We will be showing Australia’s medical and health community that Dubbo is a destination for doctors – a place of clinical excellence, of cutting-edge medical education and health research,” Ms Roberts told Dubbo Photo News. “It’s also a chance for our team to share ideas and meet others working in the same field.” In a nod to the important re-

Karen Paxton, Dr Tony Brown and Dr Emma Webster from the School of Rural Health in Dubbo will be going to the National Rural Health Conference in Hobart this month.

search being undertaken in the Central West, School of Rural Health researchers will also be presenting at the conference. Senior Lecturer Dr Georgina Luscombe will be discussing her work, ‘City vs Country – do rural adolescents experience digital health inequalities?’, which explores how young people aged 12-24 access healthcare and use technology to seek information on health services. Also presenting is former

School of Rural Health student Lise Kempler, now a junior medical officer at Royal Prince Alfred Hospital in Sydney. Ms Kempler gained some invaluable experience during her year in Dubbo and that forms the basis of her presentation. The medical condition Thalassaemia was identified in two young Aboriginal patients and Lise was integral in gaining consent from their families to prepare a report for a medical journal.

She says it’s important to share cases like this in medical journals. “Thalassemia trait has been reported in Aboriginal people decades ago, yet it has been seemingly forgotten,” Ms Kempler said. But when she read the very formal patient consent forms, she realised they would likely alienate the families involved. “We realised that using the standard approach risked not getting permission, and we would lose the opportunity to advocate for better treatment of Aboriginal people with Thalassaemia.” The Western NSW Regional Training Hub, which provides support and incentives for medical trainees to stay in the region, is also a major part of the promotion at the conference. The hub is sponsoring five young medicos, currently doing their specialist training, to attend. “The theme of the National Rural Health Conference is ‘Better Together’, and that is what Dubbo does really well – work together,” Ms Roberts said. “We are lucky to have an array of health organisations, from the local health district to the training hubs, all working together to get results. “Whether you’re a student wanting to study medicine or a specialist looking for a fulfilling career avenue, we have those opportunities right here,” she said.

The great unknown becomes work and home By JOHN RYAN JENNY Shrestha is now one of Dubbo’s happiest residents but things didn’t start out so rosy. “I came to Australia from Nepal to get married a few years ago. I was in Sydney, my husband was studying there and I stayed with him in Sydney for a year,” Mrs Shrestha explained. The couple were required to move to a regional area to get their residency, but at that stage they knew very little about Dubbo and its employment opportunities. “I had no clue what Dubbo was, I had no clue what an abattoir was, I had no clue what Fletcher’s was – we just saw from the immigration site that we could go to Dubbo,” she told Dubbo Photo News. “We came here just for a visit one night and we stayed at a motel and I cried the whole night because I didn’t like the place. I thought there is nothing here, I just didn’t like it and we went back to Sydney thinking we wouldn’t come again,

but because of the challenge that we had we couldn’t stay in Sydney. “So we said, ‘Let’s do it,’ and I came to the abattoirs and I hated it the first few days; I just did it because I had to, but then I started to enjoy it – especially when I moved to the QA (Quality Assurance) and saw more of the business,” she said. She’s now the Quality Assurance manager at the plant, getting her first promotion within a few months on the back of her hard and diligent work. Always on the lookout for talent, the production manager asked her about her skills. “I studied environmental science in Nepal, a Bachelor degree, and he thought it would be good if I could join the QA team because my background would help. So I was a QA supervisor for a couple of years and then promoted to manager.” She says what started out as a nightmare journey into the unknowable has turned out to be the best thing ever.

“We decided to stay in Dubbo, bought a house last year, got a citizenship this year and had a baby – so a lot has happened!” she said. And that’s not all, this QA manager is literally become a one-person city development officer for her adopted city. “I actually forced my sister to come to Dubbo – she’s a registered nurse. She was doing fantastic in Sydney but I called her here because I love the life in Dubbo, you’ve got so much time with the kids and family. She’s got two kids and she moved to Dubbo because of me and she’s enjoying it,” Mrs Shrestha said. “No matter how much research you do on computers or anything, you do not know the place until you start living here, going around and talking to people, and hearing their experiences – there’d be a lot of people in cities like Sydney who would be scared to come to places like this but after a month they’d enjoy it. “We have a Nepalese com-

munity in Dubbo, it’s a close community and we work together and we have our own programs going on. We arrange time for the kids, kids’ sports days and barbecues, Nepalese New Year and that sort of thing, and that brings everyone together,” she said. And it’s now a family affair at the abattoir, with her husband Birendera working nights there, so they take turns with their new baby and discuss work matters at the change of shift. “My husband does a very vital role. Birendera is a cleaning supervisor so he manages a small crew, but a very important crew,” Mrs Shrestha said. Her advice to anyone looking for a fresh start, whether it’s someone new to Australia or someone from Dubbo looking for a career change or a first job, is simple: “Don’t be scared, it’s normal to be scared or terrified, but give it a try, you never know, you could end up like me, wanting to stay and living a happy life.”

DRIVING around Wellington, you’ll notice that quite a few homes have a letterbox that is a miniature version of the home it stands in front of. Clive Thomas, a long-term resident of Wellington, is the very clever gentleman who makes these miniature house letter boxes. He uses a photograph of each house and then makes a matching letterbox out of metal. He also makes toys out of wood. This clever craftsman makes larger models of light houses and windmills that can stand up to 180cm. Clive worked on a dairy farm for 14 years, and was the local grave-digger for 30 years. He’s been retired for 19 years but his fabulous hobby keeps him busy. He has a wonderful photo album of all the letterboxes he has made.

Dubbo Hospital gets MRI licence offering lifesaving scans

Drug Supply Prohibition Orders give police power to smash gangs

PATIENTS in Dubbo and Western NSW will soon access lifesaving scans at their fingertips for cancer, stroke, heart and other medical conditions, with the Federal Government’s announcement of a new MRI licence for the Dubbo Hospital. “Once up and running, the MRI will deliver an estimated 3354 Medicare-subsidised services to locals annually as a result of this licence – saving lives and reducing healthcare costs,” Federal Member for Parkes Mark Coulton said. “This MRI licence will enable patients at Dubbo Hospital to access rebates for in-house scans, rather than needing to travel elsewhere for the service,” he said.

NEW powers for police will target organised crime and the supply of illegal drugs in Dubbo, Wellington and Narromine. Drug Supply Prohibition Orders (DSPO) will initially operate as a two-year pilot program in the Orana Mid-Western Police District. The new orders will mean police are able to specifically target convicted drug dealers who are considered likely to continue to engage in drug supply, without having to apply for multiple court warrants, helping to ensure that convicted drug dealers are held to account. “This is exactly the sort of initiative we have been waiting for,” Wellington business owner Rod Irwin said.

Schools come together in a debating workshop

Justice Reinvestment in Bourke gets funding

By SOPHIA ROUSE PUBLIC schools in the Western Region take part in two debating competitions each year – the Premier’s Debating Challenge and the Western Challenge Debating Competition. Dubbo West Public School hosted the District Debating Workshop on Monday, March 11, and has done so for the past five years, with 12 schools and 90 students from all around the region participating this year. The workshop is organised by the Arts Unit in Sydney who manage all Creative Art Departments in NSW Public Schools including the School Spectacular. Tony Davies from the Arts Unit helped students improve their skills and practice with some mock debates to help with confidence when it comes to public speaking. Students learnt some simple structures on how to organise a debate, choosing example topics which prepared the students for the upcoming

competitions. Georgia Meredith, who is a teacher at the school, told Dubbo Photo News, “It’s really beneficial for the kids who are involved in those competitions to attend

this workshop because Tony Davies is just incredible. “He really helps the kids understand the premise of debating, but in a really fun way and a really simple way.”

ROYAL CORRESPONDENCE

Harry and Meghan overwhelmed by Dubbo’s welcome, letters say By YVETTE AUBUSSON-FOLEY LOCAL historian Ann McLachlan has received a letter from Kensington Palace – and not for the first time. The first letter, which included a black and white official wedding photograph, reads: “The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have been overwhelmed by all the incredibly kind cards and letters they have received on the occasion of their Wedding, and are so touched that you took the trouble to write as you did. “It really was most thoughtful of you and greatly appreciated by Their Royal Highnesses who send their very best wishes,” the note said. Ms McLachlan was delighted.

“I’d heard if you send a hand written letter that someone would reply and I wanted to send a wedding card, but thinking there might be a delay I asked a friend in London if she would send one on my behalf,” Ms McLachlan told Dubbo Photo News. Learning that the couple would visit Dubbo, Ms McLachlan wrote to Kensington Palace to suggest some interesting places to visit including the aviation museum at Narromine and Taronga Western Plains Zoo. “I did go down to Victoria Park on the day but didn’t get to meet them, however a response arrived a couple of weeks ago with a photograph of them under the umbrella in the rain,” Ms McLachlan said. “The Royal Highnesses

FOR the first time in Australia, a justice reinvestment site has received Federal funding. The Federal Government has committed $300,000 per year for five years and the NSW Government has committed $300,000 for the first year to the Maranguka Justice Reinvestment in Bourke. Since 2012, Maranguka, the community-led entity in Bourke, in partnership with Just Reinvest NSW, has undertaken activities designed to create change within the community and the justice system. Just Reinvest NSW is now engaging with additional communities in NSW keen to adopt a similar justice reinvestment approach.

very much appreciated your thoughtful suggestions of places to visit on their visit to Dubbo,” the response reads, with an apology for the delayed reply. “The Duke and Duchess enjoyed their recent visit to Dubbo and were overwhelmed by the incredibly warm and welcoming reception they received. “I have enclosed a photograph, taken during Their Royal Highnesses’ visit to Victoria Park, which I hope you will enjoy as a small token of appreciation,” the letter says. While Ms McLachlan wrote to the palace in September last year, the palace did not reply until February. “The last several months have been extremely busy for this office and, consequently, we have been unable to reply as quickly as we would like,” the letter says.

DUBBO’S Macquarie Conservatorium is one of 17 regional conservatoriums with an unknown future, after Education Minister Rob Stokes’ office conveyed to the Association of NSW Regional Conservatoriums president Anita Bellman that the NSW Liberal/ National Coalition will make no commitment to enhanced funding for the 17 regional music conservatoriums across NSW. “Our numerous requests dating back to October 2018 to meet directly with Minister Stokes to discuss our submission for increased funding for regional conservatoriums were denied,” Ms Bellman said. “Disappointingly, Minister Stokes is the only Minister for Education who has refused to meet with regional conservatoriums,” she said.

INDIGENOUS HISTORY

Highway art to tell the story of ‘first Indigenous activist’ By JOHN RYAN

ADAM King has lived in and around Dubbo for most of his life, with his traditional tribal lands down around the Hawkesbury. He has always felt the need to be working with his hands. “I started my career as a welder, I did some engineering,” Mr King said. But while he was learning to build professionally for function, his heart told him he had to work on form as well. “Elders taught me how to do a lot of artwork so I combined my skills together and came up with what I’ve been doing now,” he told Dubbo Photo News. “It’s getting busier – I’ve got exhibitions in galleries at Orange, Armidale. I might be going to Queensland, I’ve got stuff in Canberra, got work in Redfern and I’ve got to do a big sculpture around Newtown.” Now Adam’s hit the big time when it comes to creating an iconic cultural memorial which he says aims to educate all Australians to the fact that Aboriginals had their heroes, too. He has been selected to help build artworks along a new highway commemorating someone he said everyone in the nation should admire for his courage and commitment in the face of overwhelming odds. “The M5’s where a new highway’s going through and some artists have been selected for a project. I was one of the lucky ones to get in – we’re doing a big Aboriginal thing on Pemulwuy who’s known as ‘The Rainbow Warrior’. He was a warrior and used to go and attack the European settlers when they first moved in,” Mr King said. “They ended up shooting this poor fella and chopped his head off and sent it back to Britain and we’ve been trying to get his head back ever since. “It’s about him and his his-

Adam King has been invited to contribute to a new artwork project on M5 Motorway that will help tell the story of Pemulwuy, also known as ‘The Rainbow Warrior’, who lived around the Botany Bay area when the First Fleet arrived. Mr King is pictured with a work of his at Sculptures by the Sea in Sydney. PHOTO: SUPPLIED. Right: This early engraving of Pemulwuy was created by Samuel John Neele.

tory and what he used to do, it’s not just art, it’s about education as well – it’s important this story is told because we just don’t have this information out there,” he said. Pemulwuy was born in about 1750 around the Botany Bay area and was resistant to white settlement. It’s believed he was a member of the Bidjigal clan of the Eora people, the original inhabitants of modern-day Toongabbie and Parramatta. Legend has it that he was a traditional “healer” and he was well known for hunting meat to exchange for goods from the new colony, where hunger was rife, but in 1790, just two years after the First Fleet landed, he began a 12-

year guerrilla war against the British, which continued until his assassination. Pemulwuy is arguably the first Indigenous activist and his name has endured for more than 200 years as a man determined to never surrender the freedom of his people. His attacking raids spread panic until 1802 when he was surprised by two unknown settlers and murdered, his head decapitated and sent to England in a specimen jar as a gift for botanist Joseph Banks. Mr King said this project is stirring to work on when it comes to being proud of Australia’s rich historical fabric. “It’s about culture but it’s more educating everyone to say who this bloke is.

“(It’s also important) for schools to learn this history,” Mr King said, adding that this art project is not just about Aboriginal people, “it’s about everyone coming together to learn about Australian history. “We miss that and I think we need to push that a bit more,” he added. He says building out of steel means it’s durable and accessible, and the artwork doesn’t have to be hidden, locked up and protected. “It’s 24/7, it’s right there, you don’t have to go into a building to look at it, you don’t have to pay to go in to see it,” Mr King said. “Admire what the art’s about and learn from it,” he encouraged.

EMERGENCY ISSUES

NEWS OPINION AND ANALYSIS by JOHN RYAN

V8 Supercar, drugs seized in raids SEVEN people were due to face court on Tuesday charged following an investigation into largescale drug supply in the Orana and Hunter regions, which also saw a V8 Supercar seized as proceeds of crime. Police said Tuesday that, following an eight-month investigation, strike force investigators executed five search warrants at properties at Dubbo and two search warrants at properties at Cessnock on Monday this week. Those charged include a 43-yearold Dubbo man, a 29-year-old Dubbo man, a 38-year-old Dubbo woman and a 47-year-old Cassilis man.

Car burnt out RESIDENTS near the Wheelers Lane/Myall Street roundabout weren’t too happy and who can blame them. Last week a car was abandoned on the wide median strip in the middle of Myall Street opposite Luna Park, and police towed it to the southern side of the street so it could be taken away. That tow didn’t arrive before an unknown group with incredibly decent fire-lighting capabilities allegedly torched it. It’d be great if we had a foolproof system to ensure these stolen/abandoned/whatever vehicles could be picked up and taken away long before a gang of kids can get to the scene with a cigarette lighter. Some residents with young children in a house nearby said these acts of random arson are pretty terrifying when it comes to worrying about the safety of the little ones.

“The members practiced safely extinguishing high pressure gas fires, using water sprays to provide protection from the flames,” Supt Barber said. “They then engaged in internal compartment fire suppression, practicing advanced techniques which included cooling and extinguishing techniques vital to effective house fire extinguishment when attacking the fire from inside the house.

“These techniques are critical to both extinguishing a house fire, and minimising water use and water damage as an eventuality of a fire,” he said. I went through a few of those exercises at Wello years ago when I was a lot younger and much fitter and it certainly takes it out of you, especially in the shipping container set up as a hot-box. It’s a great facility and a great way of preparing our emergency services workers for the real thing.

No rest WHILE many Dubbo residents may lead hectic lives, if you’re a Rural Fire Service volunteer it’s not unusual to have your world turned totally upside down – and all for the love of it. Here’s a message that was put out to bushfire brigade volunteers a few days ago: “Looking for crews to go to the Tenterfield fires. “Leave Tuesday the 19th fly to Glen Innes and return Saturday the 23rd. “Thank you to all that have con-

Car crashes into post office frontage

THIS was the scene at the Dubbo Grove Post Office on Boundary Road last Friday. The driver of the car, 70, was uninjured, and thankfully there was no-one on the footpath either. Security footage showed the car approaching the parking spot correctly just after 3pm but then continuing into the front of the post office. The mailboxes at the front took most of the impact.

Firie training I MENTIONED how our local firies had been undergoing some gruelling fire training at the Wellington training facility in last week’s column, and the guys from Fire and Rescue 280 Dubbo Station sent through some action shots this week. Zone commander Superintendant Gary Barber said the realistic training is important for the troops so they can brush up on and polish their skills in a live fire environment.

tributed to the out-of-area deployments so far, it has been appreciated by the local communities that have been affected. “So far Orana has contributed to every deployment, which is an excellent effort considering the current climate in the bush. Keep up the good work,” the message said. So much of what our myriad volunteers do goes pretty much unnoticed, unheralded and unsung. These sorts of selfless voluntary efforts are happening all the time while the majority of us eat, sleep and do a bit of work, so it’s handy to reflect on the sacrifices so many of our neighbours and colleagues are making on our behalf, and often for people in communities so far away from their homes and families.

IN BRIEF

New sports and equipment facilities for Geurie Public School LOCAL Geurie families will benefit from a NSW Nationals pledge to provide Geurie Public School with new sports and equipment storage facilities. “This is a great result for the school, as the improved facilities will provide a practical resource for the school and support the school’s commitment to physical activities and sports,” NSW Nationals Dubbo electorate candidate Dugald Saunders said. The new facilities at Geurie Public School are being delivered in addition to the NSW Government’s record $6 billion school building program to deliver more than 170 new and upgraded schools, including the new Yawarra Community School in West Dubbo.

THE idea for a Dubbo music festival featuring locals who write and perform their own music has been tossed around for a while. ‘Would locals support it?’ was always one of the concerns. We have the talent as “Lust For Live” and The Old Bank have shown for a number of years. The pieces of the puzzle started to come together last year when SOMAD (Song-

The day crowd

writers & Original Musicians Association Dubbo) was born. The group was soon organising its inaugural “Under Western Skies Festival”, aimed at showcasing local singer-songwriters. “Every great music city needs a great music festival. Under Western Skies is Dubbo’s chance to get on the festival map. We’ve put together an amazing amount of entertainment – nine bands playing through the afternoon and evening, accompanied by film screenings, activities for

the kids, craft beer and cider, market stalls and local gourmet food vans,” the group said. Last Saturday, these words became a reality. It turned out to be a ‘sold out’ reality as SOMAD’s first festival was held at Dundullimal Homestead. From centre stage, the music was powerfully and emotionally delivered, with performances covering a number of styles from heartfelt acoustic to electronic to rock, all finding new local fans. Links to all who performed

and their original music are available now at the festival website www.uwsfest.com and you can learn more about SOMAD at www.somad.org. au. Under Western Skies was exactly what was promised as locals and some travellers celebrated local music, art and some great food and beer at a place that has seen many decades of its own history. Dundullimal was the perfect venue and even a dust storm reminded us that we were, indeed, under western skies.

OPINION, ANALYSIS, FEATURES, DEPTH.

What matters most to D ir e h t t n e s e r p s e t a id d The can e t o v r u o y r fo s e h c it final p Dubbo Photo News asked each Dubbo electorate candidate: What issues and concerns have Dubbo electorate voters raised with you in the lead up to March 23? If elected, what will you do to address them? Here’s what they said.

Mathew Dickerson, Independent IN the ten months since I announced my intention to stand for this election, I have visited all 131 electorate localities, travelled almost 40,000km, worn out one set of tyres, two sets of shoes, and spoken with 2500 people across the 17,352.89 square kilometres of this electorate. What is important to people across this electorate varies incredibly dependent upon location and circumstances. The overwhelming sentiment though is one of disillusionment. Residents feel let down. Let down by the Government. Let down by politi-

cians. Let down by the major parties. With leadership changes and political scandals and infighting in parties, people feel as if their needs come last. I am here to change all of that. As many people have mentioned to me, I don’t need to stand for this election. I have an innate desire to help people and I want to stand for this election. If I was struck down tomorrow, I could die satisfied that I helped create a wonderful family, made a significant positive difference to Dubbo in my time as Mayor, helped make the world a better place with my charity exploits and always gave life 110 per cent. Hopefully I won’t be struck down tomorrow and I have more to give. And the potential I have to give is immense. The pundits and pollsters point to a hung Parliament. To quote Joe Hildebrand, “There is no surer way to get your electorate’s streets paved with gold than in a minority government where independents hold the balance of power.” What a rare and incredible opportunity we have in this electorate to elect an Independent who has the crucial ingredients of passion; experience; intelligence and work ethic and mix that with a hung Parliament.

The result? This electorate can achieve the variety of components residents have been wanting. Twenty-four-hour police stations; reduction in power bills; improved health services; better education outcomes; better water management; recognition of our changing climate; better roads and regional business development. Dubbo – don’t waste this once in a lifetime opportunity to have your issues addressed in this electorate. •••

Dugald Saunders, The Nationals THE Dubbo electorate is a place unlike any other, and I am honoured to live, work and raise a family in this beautiful part of the world. That’s why I have been working hard and rallying loudly for the projects that matter most to our communities.

When you look around this area it’s hard to ignore the newly developed Dubbo Hospital, the earthworks heralding a new Mudgee Hospital, the ever-expanding projects at the Dubbo Airport precinct, and the soon to be built rail maintenance facility. These are real projects, happening here and now, funding locked in, plans drawn up, shovels in the ground, with some completed and already in use. There’s now a huge focus on better connectivity and less mobile black spots, and that will happen with $400 million to build more towers. We’ve also delivered funding for more attractions and events to bring tourists to all of our towns. These projects are not only making our towns better places to work, live and play but they’re creating jobs, which is vital during this devastating drought. The Nationals drought relief package has now been bolstered to $1.5 billion with more plans to continue supporting farming families and businesses. Every cent of the $4.2 billion Snowy Hydro Fund will be spent in regional NSW because of the NSW Nationals, which will strengthen regional water security, digital connectivity, passenger transport, freight and the way we activate industry and attract business. Generations of families and businesses have built happy and successful lives in the Dubbo electorate and I will continue to do everything I can to preserve our towns and our way of life, and I

encourage you to do the same. Only the NSW Nationals in government can continue to deliver these kinds of real outcomes. •••

Stephen Lawrence, Country Labor SYDNEY stadium splurge. A vote for me is a vote to redirect the stadium splurge money into schools and hospitals. Labor will finish the hospital redevelopment and commit $10 million extra to the Cancer Centre as well as employing more nurses. Keeping a seat at the table. I believe there will be a new Labor government elected this weekend. When that happens all the Nationals propaganda about “delivery” and their blatant use of taxpayer’s money for campaigning will count for nothing. An opposition Nats MP will not be as effective as me and that’s a fact regardless of your political

I will also bring a ndrug rehabilitation cenr rug tre to our region, a drug rful f l jjustice i court and other powerful reinvestment initiatives that actually do something about crime. The time has come for the community to see through last minute “tough on crime” electioneering and to actually vote for real change. Water management. The current drought has highlighted the competing demands on a limited resource. If I am elected I will work to restore fairness and equity to water management in NSW starting with a Commission of Inquiry. The environment and users of the waterways need to be given greater priority than they currently are.

River Street Bridge. A Labor government will halt the project, undertake a consultation and guarantee $140 million for addressing Dubbo’s transport infrastructure needs. TAFE – Labor will save TAFE with a massive reinvestment and a cap on the funding that can go to private colleges. Electricity Prices – Labor will reregulate electricity prices and implement the recommendations of the ACCC, leading to significant price reductions.

Joanna Cotterill, Flux party

WHEN I talk to people in the Dubbo electorate they all have different issues and concerns. Electorate voters talk to me about: z difficult experiences with the drought z challenges with education z problems with health services z worries about children and

parenting z challenges in running a business z concerns about the environment z worries about crime, drugs and alcohol z challenges with housing z the lack of public transport z concerns about freight routes What is common among the people of Dubbo is not these issues or concerns but rather a feeling that all of these NSW State Government responsibilities are not being properly addressed. All of the people I talk to about different issues finish off by pointing out that they would like to see a change in the policies and practices of government. They want their voices to be heard, they want to have their voices represented, they want to have a say on the decisions that parliament is making. They don’t trust politicians to represent their interests (over the interests of their party, their funders or their own opinions).

Flux is a party committed to one thing, giving people a say over the decisions that are made by government. We believe that using technology we can safely, wisely and quickly have a say on any decision that matters to us and we can elect representatives whose only mandate is to vote in accordance with the will of the people. Flux stands for “Issue Based Direct Democracy”. This means that we allow people to directly vote on decisions before government or people can delegate their vote to anyone they trust to represent their view on that issue. As the Flux candidate I promise to ask the electorate how I should vote on every issue and then vote accordingly. ••• Responses From Shooters Fishers and Farmers candidate Lara Quealy, The Greens candidate Rod Pryor and Australian Conservatives (NSW) candidate April Salter were not received prior to deadline.

Electioneering and candidate forums John Ryan ❚ OPINION & ANALYSIS Send your news tips to john.ryan@panscott.com.au or 0429 452 245 txt is best

Confusion over commitment I’VE heard it’s been reported around and about that the ALP has only pledged $10 million towards the Dubbo cancer centre, but on my recording of that press conference it was definitely $20 million that was being pledged. I’m sure plenty of local media outlets have the same recording so if Labor wins power, that’s what we’ll be expecting.

Jesus says I HAVEN’T had time to get along to many of the candidate forums but I was able to catch and record much of the evening run at the Baptist Church on Cobra Street on Saturday, March 9, where about 100 people turned up to hear moderated questions put to the candidates. It was a good night but I’m always concerned when I think that some would-be pollies may be telling porkies, that there’s no avenue to hold them to account or cross examine their answers. There was an interesting debate about nailing or tech-screwing election corflutes to roadside trees and, while Independent Mathew Dickerson was black and white that it’s illegal, the Nats’ Dugald Saunders and Shooters’ Lara Quealy said they believe there are areas of grey. It was one of the few contentious issues of the night. “The thing about posters on trees is that it’s actually against the Roads Act 1993 so, more important than the Electoral Act there... any of those on road reserves are illegal but just because someone else commits murder doesn’t make it okay for me to commit murder so the argument that someone else does it so it’s okay for me, I’m sorry Dugald, I

don’t accept that argument,” Mr Dickerson told the crowd. “You won’t see any of my posters on those trees because it’s illegal, I’m not interested in breaking the law, I’m interested in being and doing the right thing through the entire campaign and it’s actually a social experiment I’m conducting, whether good wins over, not-asgood,” he continued. Another point Mr Dickerson made in front of the Christian audience was that if he had a difficult path to follow, he’d do what his mum had always told him, “to do what Jesus would have done”.

MRI at last I’VE been monitoring the need for – and promises for – an MRI machine in Dubbo for years, and now Member for Parkes Mark Coulton has announced it will happen. “I’m thrilled to announce an MRI licence for Dubbo Hospital. Once up and running the MRI will deliver an estimated 3354 Medicare subsidised services to locals annually as a result of this licence – saving lives and reducing healthcare costs,” Mr Coulton said. Years ago, the federal coalition, represented in Parkes by John Cobb, was forced to commit to an MRI machine in downtown Dubbo because then ALP candidate Joe Knagge promised it to the city if he was elected. I was expecting the Medicare-sanctioned machine to be a federal election issue coming into May, but with the voting land-

scape so up in the air, it looks like the feds have got in early, maybe hoping the rainbow from this announcement will still occupy the public retinas come May. Patients in Dubbo and Western NSW will now be able to access lifesaving scans at their fingertips for cancer, stroke, heart and other medical conditions, with the Coalition Government’s announcement of a new MRI licence for the Dubbo Hospital, according to Mr Coulton. “People in Western NSW deserve the very best healthcare services possible. “This MRI licence will enable patients at Dubbo Hospital to access rebates for in-house scans, rather than needing to travel elsewhere for the service,” he said. And so it should, with Dubbo finally becoming a proper medical hub to reflect the vast outback area the city services. An MRI is a commonly used medical scan which gives a detailed view of the soft tissues of the body such as muscles, ligaments, brain tissue, discs and blood vessels, and is used by doctors to diagnose and monitor a number of different medical conditions including cancer and trauma or sporting injuries.

Labor promise on small country hospitals

IN the final week of the state election campaign, last minute promises are being made, including one from Labor Leader Michael Daley

to provide extra funding for small country hospitals and multi-purpose services (MPSs). The MPSs often cater for communities with a population between 1000 and 4000. The Daley plan includes an extra $50 million for capital works and infrastructure, beginning the formal process to consolidate a new minimum nurse staffing standard, and a formal review into the direction, effectiveness and provision of health services by MPSs. The first hospitals to have the new minimum nurse staffing level guaranteed will include Gilgandra, Warren and Coonamble hospitals. Various other political promises are reported elsewhere in this edition.

Fatal crash near Bourke SAD news of another fatality on Western NSW roads, this time near Byrock. Police say a Mazda utility was travelling west along Nidgery Byrock Road, Byrock, about 79km south east of Bourke, when it left the roadway and rolled on Saturday morning. The crash claimed the life of a 24-year-old man. Two male passengers – aged 20 and 40 – suffered minor injuries.

Mars needs guitars, as does Wello DENISE KELLY from Wellington is putting the call out for any guitars that people are not using to be donated for use in youth support groups in Wellington, so it’s a great cause. If you’ve got an old guitar lying around in a dusty cupboard, let me know and we’ll get it to Denise.

Narromine trucks OUTGOING Member for Dubbo Troy Grant’s proposed Narromine bypass hasn’t been universally popular with local residents, with some in recent weeks saying the increased amount of trucks through town is already giving them plenty of headaches and concerns about safety. Locals don’t want the trucks running through town.

My belief is the only reason the Tomingley-Narromine-Eumungerie route has anywhere near the same travel time as the Dubbo route is because of all the bottlenecks having to drive through Dubbo, and the heavy vehicle inspection station which is often on the job at Brocklehurst and which isn’t liked by many drivers.

Carpark contract RIVERDALE Shopping Centre’s car park now has a sign at the entry alerting motorists who enter that they are also entering into a contract. That contract allows three hours only per day, and which can ultimately cost a $65 fine if breached. There are 12 conditions and 13 sub clauses to be met, or you get a fine. You can skim read these as you drive in. The “contract” is not with Riverdale but InterPark Australia which has offices in Melbourne and Sydney and describes itself as “the newest and most progressive car park management company in Australia, bringing a new level of service to both car park owners and car park customers”. What they possibly don’t realise is that annually 120,000 people drive in to Dubbo from out west, to shop and access services here which are not available where they live. They may choose to do that at Riverdale, where they might fill two trolleys of groceries, get a haircut, pick up some meat at the butchers, have lunch in a café and go see a movie. Great, if you can knock all that over in under three hours, otherwise they’ll be leaving a $65 tip. Their trips to town are great for the Dubbo economy where local shops are under unusual financial stress at the moment thanks in large part to the drought, and they need all the business they can get. z Send your news tips to john.ryan@panscott.com.au or 0429 452 245 txt is best z Additional reporting by Dubbo Photo News staff.

ISSUE

The long dry: why the world’s water supply is shrinking Finally the world is waking up, according to landscape restoration expert Peter Andrews. The headline above this story is one that he wishes had been written 40 years ago. Mr Andrews says if we’d taken notice of this headline back then, then there’d be far fewer problems with Australia’s rivers and agriculture as we close towards 2020. ACCORDING to researchers from the University of NSW, a global study has found a paradox: water supplies are shrinking at the same time as climate change is generating more intense rain. Researchers say the culprit is the drying of soils, pointing to a world where drought-like conditions will become the new normal, especially in regions that are already dry. Here’s how the university reported the findings: “The study – the most exhaustive global analysis of rainfall and rivers – was conducted by a team led by Professor Ashish Sharma at Australia’s University of New

South Wales (UNSW) in Sydney. “It relied on actual data from 43,000 rainfall stations and 5300 river monitoring sites in 160 countries, instead of basing its findings on model simulations of a future climate, which can be uncertain and at times questionable. “This is something that has been missed,” said Sharma, an ARC Future Fellow at UNSW’s School of Civil and Environmental Engineering. “We expected rainfall to increase, since warmer air stores more moisture – and that is what climate models predicted too. “What we did not expect is that, despite all the extra rain everywhere in the world, the large rivers are drying out. “We believe the cause is the drying of soils in our catchments. “Where once these were moist before a storm event – allowing excess rainfall to run-off into rivers – they are now drier and soak up more of the rain, so less water makes it as flow. “Less water into our rivers means less water for cities and farms. “And drier soils mean farmers need more water to grow the same

crops. “Worse, this pattern is repeated all over the world, assuming serious proportions in places that were already dry. It is extremely concerning,” the UNSW study stated. This is what Mr Andrews has been saying for decades – he’s concerned that, after so many years of continually doing the wrong

thing, it’s going to be much harder to turn back the clock. Unlike UNSW’s Dean of Engineering, Professor Mark Hoffman, who says “it’s clear there’s no simple fix, so we need to start preparing for this,” Andrews believes the landscape can be rehydrated relatively simply, cheaply and quickly. Can you imagine... going directly from drought to paradise? Australia is experiencing the worst drought for more than 100 years. But despite this, there is still hope and a great opportunity. The United Nations is declaring 2021-2030 The Decade of Ecosystem Restoration. And Australia can take a leading role. Peter Andrews is a farmer who believes this is possible by using the basic patterns and following simple rules that can be observed in the ancient Australian landscape. For many millions of years Australia evolved a highly productive and fully automated ecosystem with a huge diversity of plants (and animals) that managed the landscape, from watershed to estuary, with nearly 100 per cent efficiency – despite enduring many cycles of extreme climate

conditions. Peter’s agricultural methods of Natural Sequence Farming have become wildly popular and the UN has officially recognised Natural Sequence Farming as a sustainable agricultural practice – one of only five in the world. Now, Peter has a bold new vision. “A new beginning for the Australian landscape,” Mr Andrews said. “The complete restoration of river systems and floodplains across Australia, by 2030. “In collaboration with a panel of international experts and scientists, this major project will restore soil health, water health, food health and generate thousands of sustainable jobs in the process,” he said. Andrews says “desertification” is the major problem facing the Earth, claiming the more you rip plants out of the soil, the drier the landscape becomes, and the less rain you get, and so the landscape becomes drier still, and you get less rain, and so on in a diminishing cycle until eventually your lush and fertile lands have become waterless deserts.

A PROJECT that will change the face of tourism in western NSW has received a massive funding injection of $20 million. On her way to Lightning Ridge for the Federal Government announcement on Sunday, March 10, Australian Opal Centre manager Jenni Brammall was thrilled that Stage 1 of a new state-of-the-art facility would soon be underway. “We’re absolutely delighted,” she told Dubbo Photo News. “It’s been a long time coming and investment at a community level has been ongoing for the past 15 years.” Member for Parkes Mark Coulton announced the Federal Government’s input of $9.5 million, which would be added to $7.5 million from the NSW Government, $2 million from Walgett Shire Council and $1 million from community and industry. “We are really pleased the groundwork is done and that, with government and private support, we will

be able to get started,” Ms Brammall said. “This money means we will be able to deliver a very substantial portion of the two-stage building project.” Fundraising for the second and final stage will start immediately, with progress and planning for Stages 1 and 2 to occur simultaneously. Ms Brammall said the new purpose-built centre is at the core of the Lightning Ridge community. “This project was conceived by the Lightning Ridge community in the late 1990s, so there’s an incredible level of commitment and community investment over a long time.” Ms Brammall, who is a palaeontologist, gemmologist and opal valuer, said that the complex would be a valuable resource, research facility, information and display centre all in one, housing fossils, gemstones and relevant artefacts. “It will position western NSW and Australia as the world leading producer; a showcase and pedestal for opals and a leading fossil

COUNCIL WATCH

Dubbo Photo News’s independent reporting on and analysis of Dubbo Regional Council activities

‘Crisi-tunity’ is knocking: Turning crisis into opportunity for Dubbo EXCLUSIVE By YVETTE AUBUSSON-FOLEY DUBBO Regional Council (DRC) mayor Ben Shields believes Dubbo can solve an unfolding crisis created by the China National Sword Policy which has closed China as a destination for recyclables. As a result of that policy, recycling centres in NSW are stockpiling and the backlog is so high that councils with truckloads of recycling are being turned away. Previously the recycling centres could sell processed recyclables to destinations like China which in turn repurposed them. Recyclables collected from Dubbo households and households around the state at kerbside pickup from the yellow bin are part of the problem. “I don’t believe the political pressure of the China National Sword Policy has hit yet. There will be a giant wave of outrage soon, once we start seeing pictures on mainstream media of plastics going into landfill or being stockpiled,” Councillor Shields told Dubbo Photo News. “Dubbo can get its act together now and have the plan ready to go. When that outrage button is pushed, and whoever’s in government is running around like chooks trying to get ready to fix this problem, Dubbo can offer the easy solution,” he said. Councillor Shields’ vision is to expand the Whylandra Waste and Recycling Centre (WWRC) into a recycling plant to manage the waste of other councils, simultaneously creating employment and a centre of excellence. “This is the perfect location for a giant government funded or sponsored new recycling plant for all the stuff we can’t send to China – all that valuable plastic or that valuable glass. We (could) repurpose it right here, and why not?”

Cr Shields said. “We could do it for all of NSW, all the Eastern Seaboard. This could be an Eastern Seaboard plastics centre,” Councillor Shields said. The WWRC is located on 1300 acres of land however only a fraction is actually being used and so it is open to large scale expansion. DRC Solid Waste manager Mark Giebel and his team have been investigating the possibilities of what could happen after the recyclables are sorted. “The technology exists to convert plastic back into diesel, for example, and we’ve got our own huge fleet of trucks. The other product we use so much of is bitumen which can be replaced by

COUNCIL NEWS... IN BRIEF NSW Labor pledges to reinvest 100 per cent of Waste Levy NSW Labor has pledged to reinvest 100 per cent of the revenue collected from the Waste Levy into recycling facilities, a circular economy fund and support for the local government sector in NSW. NSW Labor unveiled its waste policy last week, pledging to split the Waste Levy revenue between environmental programs and a $140 million Circular Economy and Jobs Investment Fund that will invest in NSW’s onshore recycling capacity. “In particular, we welcome the proposed Circular Economy Job Creation Investment Fund, which will allocate $140

plastic road base,” Mr Giebel said. “The technology is out there. If the people with the technology are prepared, and all they want is land and they’re quite happy to invest, then from a council point of view, it is low risk. It’s exciting times. The beauty of it is, it’s also stuff you can scale. We start it, then we grow it,” he said. “We could also have research and development on site. We want to encourage that sort of innovation,” Mr Giebel said. During a visit last week to the WWRC, Member of NSW Legislative Council for the Christian Democratic Party Paul Green, who also chaired a parliamentary inquiry in to waste management

million in funding towards local recycling facilities, supporting the growth of the recycling industry in regional and rural areas and increasing community-based waste reduction initiatives,” Local Government NSW president Cr Linda Scott said.

Dubbo wins project dollars through drought programme DUBBO Regional Council has received the tick of approval for two projects through the Coalition’s Drought Communities Programme (DCP). “Council will use $195,000 in DCP funding for shade sails and associated infrastructure at the Dubbo Regional Livestock Markets, which will enhance the amenity and growth of this important facility,” Federal Member for Parkes Mark Coulton said. “A further $245,000 under the DCP will be used by Council for a public, accessible toilet, changing room and associated infrastructure in Dubbo’s CBD,”

in 2018, agrees with Councillor Shields that the China National Sword Policy is a “crisi-tunity”. “Once you can’t get rid of something, that’s when people become innovative,” he said. He also agreed the political will and money needs to be made available. “We’re collecting $2.2 billion with the Section 88 Waste Levy. Only one third of it is going to waste issues, two thirds is going into the general coffers. In the true spirit of that collection it should be going into projects like this. It costs a bit of money but it deals with all of NSW. It’s a no brainer,” Mr Green said. “The annoying thing is we

should have these regional infrastructures further along. Dubbo would be one, there’d be one up north, one in the southwest, and they could work in with each other. The inland rail will be a game changer. It’s great for regional jobs,” Mr Green said, pointing to a possible way to transport the raw recycled material. “With five major highways going into Dubbo, the Inland Rail going in near Dubbo, with the Minore railway line just a stone’s throw away from the WWRC, which will be linked up to the Inland Rail in Narromine, there’s actually nowhere in the state that’s got as better credentials as this,” Cr Shields said.

he said. The DCP was extended last year to provide $1 million each to all 18 councils in the Parkes electorate including Dubbo, as well as the Unincorporated Area.

Wellington walking trail and pedestrian bridge progress A PROPOSED path network for the Wellington CBD walking trail through Cameron Park and Pioneer Park will be adopted. Earlier this month, Council endorsed works to commence following DA approval in accordance with funding allocations identified in the report. Council requested a further report to be submitted to the June 2019 Ordinary Meeting of Council with cost estimates identified to complete any outstanding works on the path network and the demolition and replacement of the Bell River pedestrian bridge for consideration in the 2019/2020 budget.

OPINION & ANALYSIS LETTERS & FEEDBACK

THE TOONS’ VIEWS

Local mortgage broker welcomes govt plan

DUBBO-BASED mortgage broker Daryl Coxon expressed his deep concerns last month about how some of the recommendations of the Banking Royal Commission may adversely affect mortgage brokers and their customers [“Local expert: ‘Big banks have thrown mortgage brokers under the bus’, Dubbo Photo News, February 14]. This week Mr Coxon has welcomed the Federal Government’s announcement that they will preserve the current commission structure for the mortgage broking industry for at least the next three years. Mr Coxon writes...

THIS is great news, the recommendations made by the Royal Commission to move to a consumer-pays broker model and to scrap commissions would have hurt the mortgage broking industry, and our customers. We know that when it comes to finding a home loan, almost 60 per cent of Australians choose a mortgage broker and it seems like the government has realised that a customer-pays model would have led to reduced consumer choice and access to lenders, and increased interest rates and fees. Recent changes in lender policy and appetite have already resulted in customers becoming “mortgage hostages” with clients being forced into a position by their bank where they cannot change their loans or reduce interest rates. Furthermore, a couple of major banks have made recommendations clearly designed to drive borrowers back to the Big 4 banks and undermine brokers, potentially further reducing competition. This is particularly relevant in regional areas who rely upon brokers to provide loans from lenders

that do not have branches in our local area. My priority is and always has been my customers and the Dubbo community. I help people find the right home loan to buy their first and next home, find a better deal by refinancing and buy investment properties. Daryl Coxon Aussie Franchisee – Dubbo

Climate change like King Canute’s tide The Editor, It was interesting to read Yvette Aubusson-Foley’s latest opinion, published under the headline “Who is the moral authority of global climate science?”, Dubbo Photo News, March 14. It shows that we have much in common and perhaps our discussions may dispel some myths on climate change, although she has not come up with a decisive argument to support her views, even though she thought they were going to be ‘slam dunked’. It appears her main premise is that a reduction of carbon emissions will reverse climate change. This is mainly based on computer modelling used to support the carbon tax. For me to be classified as a ‘climate denier’ is a misnomer. I believe climate change is inevitable. The earth has changed for millions of years. I also believe our environment should be cleaned up and it has been, but there is still much to be done. I can recall driving from Dubbo to Sydney in the 1970s. When we reached the coastal side of the Blue

Mountains, we were greeted by the sight of a grey pall of pollution hanging above the city. That has now largely gone, along with much of the solid fuel domestic heating, burning leaves in the gutter and the clean-up of many industries. I have just watched a TV news clip showing a group of school girls in a parade protesting climate change. The chants and the banners display an almost brainwashed, catatonic state of mind. I am sure, judging by the uniforms they wear of some of Sydney’s leading schools, they are highly intelligent – but have probably not been shown both sides of the argument. Where Yvette and I differ is in believing that climate change can be altered by the activities of mankind. Unfortunately, Yvette and the pro-climate changers remind me a little of the story of King Canute and the tide. Yvette’s comments about Professor Emeritus, Ian Plimer, closely follow those used by the Rudd Government when the Climate Tax was being introduced – he did not suit their purpose, so similar comments were used to discredit him. He has achieved the status of Professor Emeritus because he is very well regarded by academia for his extensive work in earth sciences; in fact, he is one of the world leaders. I do not know him but I am sure he formed his climate change ideology before he was offered board positions with mining companies. After all, he is an acclaimed geologist, among

EVERY SINGLE DAY ❚ By KIM MACRAE

Democratise.

IS it fair to insist our politicians be open, honest and dedicated to actually serve the majority of the community? Last week I wrote about our values and the Rule of Law. In light of the fact there’s a state election this weekend and a federal one soon, this week I’m going to talk about democracy. Democracy is a mainstay of our

way of life. It means we have a say in how our laws are made, what our taxes are spent on, and guarantees our right to speak freely about things that matter to us. And freedom of speech is a wonderful thing - as well as helping us share positive, constructive or just plain interesting ideas, it’s essential for exposing greed, corruption and just plain poor policy. But as with most things, there is a fine line between not enough and too much. Should the ‘right’ to speak freely continue to allow someone like Fraser Anning to comment, as he did, on the innocents massacred in Christchurch last week? History shows that when that kind of speech is encouraged it leads to

other titles. Now, back to beliefs and disbeliefs. As an example, following the last Ice Age, the Earth warmed dramatically and snowfields and glaciers became forests, verdant pastures and flowing rivers. Mankind as we know it did not exist. Where did the carbon come from? I do not want to bore you with too many figures, but CO2 exists in plants, the earth and the oceans. Of all the CO2 on our planet, only 0.001 per cent is in the atmosphere. (Yes 0.001 per cent.) And mankind is responsible for an infinitesimal part of that. The figure is too small to imagine on a

escalation. More murders, more lawlessness. More peoples’ rights ignored. History suggests we tolerate it at our peril. Should our democracy continue to allow party politics to override what the majority of Australians want, as was the case for years in the same sex marriage debate and is now the case with the Sydney stadiums controversy? They’re both blatant examples

` Should our democracy continue to allow party politics to override what the majority of Australians want? a

global scale. On that topic, Australia is responsible for 1.3 per cent of world carbon emissions, compared to the USA at 14 per cent and China at 26 per cent – admittedly, they do have a few more people than Australia. Look at what has been attempted by governments to solve the issue. Carbon taxes and carbon trading schemes do very little to reduce emissions. I see carbon trading schemes as somewhat of an enigma. Businesses with large emissions buy credits from other businesses with low emissions. Total emissions have not changed but the big polluter has achieved a smaller

of small but powerful interest groups getting their own way over the interests of the majority. It’s not democratic. We’ve had it good for a long time and as a nation we get lots right. Australian ranks at the top on SO many charts: road and work safety, health, wellbeing, standard of living. On the whole we are a fair society, but it’s easy to see that our democracy needs an overhaul. I feel it’s time to question the ‘rights’ of politicians or aspiring leaders in any field, to promise things they know they can’t or won’t deliver. In our work lives, us ‘normal people’ have to follow the rules. Our political leaders, who make laws, should set the example of following them.

carbon footprint – on paper. However, they do have a cost which is ultimately passed on to the consumers. I realise this is a simplistic view, but it is a snapshot of what happens. Both Yvette and I believe we should all endeavour to clean up our environment, whether it is by reducing air pollution, recycling or reducing rubbish on our roads and rivers. When you have done something productive, bask in the warm glow of your achievement of improving our environment, but do not believe you have staved off climate change. Ken Windsor Dubbo

Should we require that all politicians sign a Pledge such as the one below. And insist they keep it? The Politician’s Pledge I serve: The people before the party; and The public interest before my own. I will act with: Care for the people Integrity in promise and practise; and With the skills to keep my promises My word is my bond. Sounds fair to me. z Kim Macrae is the Dubbo-based founder of iKiFit. He writes about ideas and activities that can help brighten our own lives and the lives of those around us.

First foggy day: As far as paparazzi is aware, Monday morning gave us our first foggy start for the year, coming after some rain the day before. Photographer Sarah O’Neill captured this eerie image at the Old Dubbo Cemetery Monday morning at around 6.50. “It was creepy as heck but totally worth it!” Sarah said of her photographic mission.

Ker-pow! You can only imagine what it would have been like to be within a bull’s roar of this tree when it was struck by lightning. The force of Nature at work!

5 STARS FOR ADVENTURE!

We have a wide range of tours, that suit every taste! “Absolutely brilliant way to see the sights of Dubbo, Peter has heaps of information ^Y VV cY_ SX YX ._LLY”. KARYN & PETER GLOVER, 5 STAR FACEBOOK REVIEW

A bottle of Johnny Walker Blue Whiskey In my opinion, the biggest issue facing small businesses is... the drought, larger shopping centres, cost of living and trained staff What three famous people, dead or alive, would you invite to dinner? My wife, the Pope and Muhammad Ali the boxer I’m most proud of... my family and my grandchildren When you were a child, what did you want to do when you grew up? There were lots of things I wanted to be, but probably a truck driver sticks out.

Comedy and hip-hop in a motivational performance By SOPHIA ROUSE

THE OCHRE Opportunity Hub hosted a day out for students from schools all around Dubbo and Wellington to motivate and encourage kids from all backgrounds with a performance from Aboriginal performer Sean Choolburra on Friday, March 15, in the Dubbo RSL Theatre. The show began with a performance from the “School of Rock” band which is made up

Back, Mckenzie Kirkness, Ash Hand, Nattalea Coghlan, Tyreece Fernando and Kassey Walford, front, Jesse Fee, Noah Fenton, Ashlee Taylor and Harrison McFarland

of students in the Support Unit from Dubbo College Delroy Campus. That helped build their performance skills and showed off their musical abilities. Sean’s show blended pop culture, dance, comedy and hip hop in a captivating, motivational and feel-good show that also expressed Aboriginal culture when he played some awesome beats with the digeridoo. Many of the kids left the theatre feeling inspired and uplifted.

Vincent Studio Collection launched By KEN SMITH

DUBBO & District Family History Society Inc (DDFHS) launched ‘The Vincent Studio Photographic Collection’ at the Western Plains Cultural Centre on Friday, March 15. As reported in Dubbo Photo News earlier this month, the collection of 14,627 photographs of Dubbo residents between the 1940s and 1970s has only been possible after 20 years of preparation and dedication by DDFHS members. The result of their work is an impressive collection of images offering a glimpse into the lives of mid-20th century Dubbo residents. In the long term the hope is the images will be available online, but for now, copies of scanned images can be ordered on completion of an order form available from the Society.

SUDOKU EXTRA

The idea of Go Figure is to arrive at the figures given at the bottom and right-hand columns of the diagram by following the arithmetic signs in the order they are given (that is, from left to right and top to bottom). Use only the numbers below the diagram to complete its blank squares and use each of the nine numbers only once.

Place a number in the empty boxes in such a way that each row across, each column down and each small 9-box square contains all of the numbers from one to nine.

Farewell to a league legend By GEOFF MANN Photos by MEL POCKNALL

STEVE Hall grew up with a football in his hands at Walgett on the banks of the Namoi River. The wizardry he worked with, combined with magical feet and a “football brain”, led the man known as ‘Bear’ to the top in his chosen passion. The esteem in which the former premiership-winning player and coach at Walgett, Coonamble, Dubbo Macquarie, Mendooran Tigers and CYMS was borne out when he was appointed Western Division then Country coach immediately after he hung up his boots. Bear then combined with French coach and

former Penrith Panther Tas Baiteri and others to establish the Talented Aboriginal Athlete Program. Last year, Tyrone Peachey, Josh Addo-Carr, Latrelle Mitchell and James Roberts graduated as winning State of Origin Blues. This high regard was reflected at Campbelltown Sports Ground, the home of the Wests Tigers, last week when an eclectic group led by leaders of the NRL, NSWRL and CRL gathered to say farewell to ‘Bear’. Tributes were paid, photos displayed and stories told long into the afternoon as the legend’s remarkable life in and out of football was remembered.

KARI Rugby League CEO Casey Ralph paid an emotional tribute to the man who had devoted 27 years of his life to the development of the code in Western NSW and the suburbs of Western Sydney

BOCCIA

Golden birthday for Jami By GEOFF MANN

IT’S been a huge week for boccia competitor Jamison Leeson and her mum Amanda. The pair, who have featured on our pages several times, drove from their home in Dunedoo to Sydney last Tuesday. “We went straight to the Aussie training camp, warmed up all day Thursday at Narrabeen for the State Titles, and then played singles Friday and Saturday,” Amanda told Dubbo Photo News. “Jam made the quarter finals in her first ever tournament and finished 5th/6th, only missing out on playing for bronze by one shot,” her proud mum continued. Jem played the pairs all day Monday. “It was the best way to spend my 16th birthday. I had a great day with my doubles teammate Spencer Cotie, and when we won gold, that was the best present ever,” the ex-

cited State Champion told me. After securing the Boccia pairs gold at the NSW titles, Jami will continue training with the Australian team ahead of the Hong Kong World Open in May and then the Asia Pacific titles in Seoul, South Korea in July. Good performances in those prestigious events should see her secure a berth at the 2020 Paralympics in Tokyo. Friends of Jami have set up a GoFundMe page to support her quest. Men of League chairperson Martin Cook says family, friends and generous sponsors have already pledged their support, but with costs around $15,000 including airfares and accommodation for each trip for Jami and her ramp assistant, her mother Amanda, much more is required. If you would like to support Jami, go to her GoFundMe page “Help Jamieson get to Tokyo Paralympics!”

DRAGON BOATING

Dragons combined for festival on Lake Burley Griffin THE Orana Outback Dragons journeyed to the capital last weekend for some “friendly” contests against the Canberra Komodos. “We had a great time and the young Canberra crew complimented us on putting it to them. We raced over 2km first up on Satur-

Ducks championships continue

day and then paddled a series of fast and furious 200 metre sprints,” Publicity Officer Chris Robinson told Dubbo Photo News. “It was not a competition with medals and point scoring. Just great fun and keen on water challenges with our Canberra,” she added.

DESPITE the chilly start, a few brave souls dived into the pond on Sunday. Dubbo Ducks swimmers fought keenly in the 25 metre and relay championship races where results were recorded and sealed until Presentation Day. Henry Wilcockson was first home in the 50 metres freestyle but much to his chagrin, “the table” fired him out of contention. This allowed smooth as silk super duck Dave Sparkes to come up quacking ahead of Ron Everett and Greg Salmon. Marg Ross and Norm Bahr drew lucky numbers.

Beau Robinson ❚ OPINION The majority of people like the idea of success. When I say the majority, there are actually a few people who are genuinely honest with themselves and who have no desire to work hard to achieve success. I respect those people, they are honest and they are few and far between. When I ask most people if they want to be successful, they reply that they do. Now what does success actually mean? Well that comes down to you, the individual. Success is simply the act of achieving one’s goal. A lot of people believe they want success, and the things that success can often bring them, such as money, freedom, power, a profile, and also what these things actual-

SWIMMING

Everyone likes the idea of success

ly get them. There are a few things that are a required in order to be successful – two of these are a goal, and a plan with strategies to achieve these goals. So, if people have a clear goal, and a plan or plans in place to achieve that goal, why do they not succeed? Because it’s hard. Bloody hard. It’s hard work, bloody hard work. It’s easy to get motivated and get on a bit of a roll once you’ve set your goals and you start following your plan. But then it starts to sometimes get boring. I’ve seen people give up on goals and plans that they’ve committed to, for no other reason than they can’t be bothered, it’s just too hard. They haven’t faced or experienced any major setbacks, they just don’t have that drive, that

drive to succeed. Weight loss is a great example. When people lose a significant amount of their body weight, you know they’ve had to work hard. They’ve had discipline, consistent discipline. Discipline to go to the gym, discipline to refrain from eating particular foods, or give up alcohol, or the discipline to eat at a particular time. If you want to get ahead of the pack you’ve got to work harder

 If you want to get ahead of the pack you’ve got to work harder than the pack or give up those things that the pack aren’t willing to. 

than the pack or give up those things that the pack aren’t willing to. It’s what they call in professional sports ‘extras’. I got some great advice before I went away to join the Bulldogs, that paved the way for what I achieved. This bloke said to me, “They reckon the difference between those who make it and those who don’t is: a little bit more.” It infuriates me when I see naturally-gifted people, whether they be athletes, business people, or industry professionals, whose skills just comes naturally, but who refuse to match that natural talent with work ethic. My work ethic, and the fact I was willing to sacrifice, ensured that I would overtake many players who were a lot better than me, both naturally in terms of skills

and physically. Those who worked the hardest were the ones that came closest to reaching their potential. They weren’t necessarily the best players, they may have been nowhere near the best players, but they worked hard to squeeze the juice out of their orange, and it’s something that they know and are proud of. That they’ve worked hard to be the best they could be. Is it your tactics or strategies that are the obstacles or blocking your from achieving? Or is your work ethic not matching your goals and plans? Action and execution lead to results and success.  Beau Robinson is an Action Coach Business Coach and former Super Rugby Champion and Wallaby. beaurobinson@actioncoach.com

the whole women’s 30s division and I finished as equal third try scorer for the division,” Dubbo Touch star Krystal Laughton said.

THE Western Under-16s and 18s teams are aiming to play in the Andrew Johns Cup and Laurie Daley Shield finals in Mudgee next month but must continue their unbeaten runs at Taree next weekend. The Rams impressed at Bathurst last Saturday taking both matches convincingly. The 16s shut out GSR Wests Tigers 32-0; the 18s best the same group 24-4.

The 16s meet Greater Northern Tigers in their semi-final; the 18s have to overcome Parramatta Eels if they are to progress to their first final. In other good news from Jack Arrow Oval Bathurst, Under-23s fullback Travis Alderherof (Orange) and winger Ben Simmons (Bourke) each scored three tries in the Rams 62-10 demolition of the Tigers, and the Women’s team made history with a 26-0 shut out of the GSR girls.
