Governor Updates Online Safety Day On 6th February, I was invited by Mrs Burton to a special e-safety assembly for KS2 pupils. It was a pleasure to see the children come into the hall in a quiet and orderly way and settle down to hear what Mrs Burton had to say. Equally impressive is the care and concern shown by all the staff in ensuring that the pupils in the school are fully aware of the benefits, but also the dangers of using the Internet. Given that no child under the age of 13 should have a social media account, it was surprising how many of them put up their hands when asked who had a Facebook, Instagram or similar account. Mrs Burton emphasised that the ‘stranger danger’ with which they are all familiar exists equally online. They were urged never to give their name, age, address or details of their school to anyone online, and most certainly never arrange to meet someone whom they have met through a chat room etc. Similarly, they were warned that whatever they posted online would always be there – even if you think it has been deleted, it will make an indelible digital footprint, which could prove harmful to future career plans if it is offensive or contravenes the law. Before posting anything, they should imagine how they would feel if someone said anything unkind or hateful to them – “ if you wouldn’t like it yourself, then don’t say it about anyone else”. Like ‘stranger-danger’ , bullying does not just exist in the real world but online, and increasingly cyber-bullying is subject to the same rules and laws which protect us all from harassment. Above all, Mrs Burton emphasised that there is always someone to whom they can turn for advice, and if there is anything about which they feel unsure, unhappy or uncomfortable, they must tell someone – a parent or grandparent, an aunt or uncle, a friend, an older brother or sister, a teacher or any adult in school. The assembly was followed up by a video in class about a child meeting someone online; I hope that this, together with the excellent assembly will provoke lively and open discussion in families and that all adults together, prepare our children to be safe and keep others safe in an increasingly digitised world.

Disability Advisory Committee Terms of Reference Version Control Note The statutory term of the Commission’s Disability Committee expired on 31 March 2017. A new Disability Advisory Committee with a transitional membership of former statutory Disability Committee members was formed on 1 April 2017. Working terms of reference for the new Committee were agreed by the Board at its meeting of 9 March 2017, subject to review when the membership of the Committee is finalised. The Committee at its first meeting reviewed and made minor operational changes to its terms of reference to reflect its incomplete membership. The first meeting of the fully-constituted Committee took place on 31 May 2018. At that meeting, the Committee agreed further changes to its terms of reference for agreement by the Board. The Board agreed these changes at its meeting of 5 July 2018. Introduction In exercise of its powers under paragraph 11 of Schedule 1 to the Equality Act 2006 (the Act), the Equality and Human Rights Commission’s (Commission’s) Board has established the Disability Advisory Committee (“Committee”) as an advisory Committee. The Committee will operate from 1 April 2017 and will be dissolved on 31 March 2019, unless the Board agrees to extend its term. Any such extension will be agreed by 31 December 2018 to give sufficient notice to Committee members of any extension to their terms of appointment. Purpose The aim of establishing the Committee is to add considerable value to the strategic direction and work of the Commission in relation to disability, building on the progress made by the statutory Disability Committee and advising on how to leave a legacy lasting beyond the period of this Committee. The purpose of the Committee is to bring disability expertise to inform and advise the Commission’s decision making across all its work. The Committee will work in partnership with the Commission to: provide advice on how the Commission’s overall long-term strategic approach can support disabled people; and advise on specific areas of Commission business, including domains and functions (such as legal, inquiries or communications).

In January 2013, the Governor-General of the Commonwealth of Australia appointed a Royal Commission (the RC) to investigate Institutional Responses to Child Sexual Abuse and provide a final report by the end of 2015. The RC will inquire into how institutions with a responsibility for children have managed and responded to allegations and instances of child sexual abuse. It will investigate where systems have failed to protect children, and make recommendations on how to improve laws, policies and practices to prevent and better respond to child sexual abuse in institutions. The RC will investigate government and non-government organisations (including those currently involved with children as well as those which have been involved with children in the past), including government agencies, schools, sporting clubs, orphanages, foster care and religious organisations. As part of its process to collect information the RC released an Issues Paper Child Safe Institutions requesting submissions from interested parties. The RC is concerned with child sexual abuse within an institutional context and seeks submissions about the content and effectiveness of strategies aimed at creating ‘child safe organisations’. Cabinet endorsed the Queensland Government submission in response to the Royal Commission into Institutional Responses to Child Sexual Abuse Issues Paper No. 3 – Child Safe Institutions. Attachments
Recommendation 18 (paragraph 9.32) The committee recommends the Australian Government urgently review the adequacy of Commonwealth Rent Assistance (CRA). The Australian Government notes this recommendation. CRA plays a critical role in reducing the cost of rental housing and the incidence of rental stress for people receiving income support and Family Tax Benefit (Part A) payments. In 2016-17, the Government improved rental affordability for more than 1.3 million Australian individuals, couples and families with children by spending around $4.4 billion in CRA. To maintain its value, CRA is indexed in line with increases in the CPI in March and September each year. The Government continually maintains and reviews welfare payments including CRA to ensure they are meeting their policy objectives. Recommendation 19 (paragraph 9.33) The Australian Government should look closely at its aged care policy so that it takes account of the particular difficulties confronting older Australians in the rental market. The Australian Government notes this recommendation. CRA assists age pensioners, as well as other welfare recipients on low to moderate incomes, to pay for housing costs in the private and community housing rental market. In addition, as part of a comprehensive package to address housing affordability in the 201718 Budget, the Government announced it will improve outcomes by: establishing the National Housing Finance and Investment Corporation to operate an affordable housing bond aggregator to provide cheaper and longer-term finance for the community housing sector; incentivising more private investment in affordable housing through tax incentives; encouraging the development of standard long-term leases; working with State and Territory governments to reform Commonwealth funding arrangements under a new National Housing and Homelessness Agreement, retaining current funding and indexation arrangements; providing additional funding of $375 million over three years as part of the new National Housing and Homelessness Agreement to fund front line services to address homelessness; and
in the future. Government Response: Accepted Energy The MCE’s initiatives of the National Energy Customer Framework and Energy Technical and Safety Regulatory Harmonisation Enhancement Plan are expected to minimise the burden on industry of providing information by promoting national consistency. Existing information provision requirements within energy legislation are being considered in the development of these initiatives with a view to streamlining the provision of information to energy market institutions. In June 2008, the MCE established an industry group to identify opportunities for greater harmonisation in energy supply industry regulation, compliance and training. The group provided its Energy Technical and Safety Harmonisation Enhancement Plan to the MCE in November 2009, which was accepted in principle by the MCE on 4 December 2009. This Plan recommended the development of an Intergovernmental Agreement to commit the state and territory governments to adopt a new ‘safety case’ standard for the electricity supply industry, mutual recognition by regulators of the standard and the establishment of an ongoing governance body to facilitate the sharing of information by regulators. The MCE considers these recommendations will assist in reducing the compliance costs and reporting for multi-jurisdictional network operators and ensuring the consistent interpretation of reporting requirements by regulators. In implementing reporting processes, the Government notes that applying a standard model may not be consistent with all reporting requirements, such as for network business regulatory resets or for the calculation of industry-wide parameters for economic regulation. Those specific recommendations on economic regulation should be appropriately referred to the Australian Energy Regulator. The Government also notes that industry has previously indicated concerns about the sharing of information between energy market institutions, particularly with respect to the broad information gathering powers of the new Australian Energy Market Operator. In response to those concerns, the MCE has agreed that these powers should not be widely utilised, nor should there be unnecessary sharing of the information gathered. Water Under the Water Act 2007 the Bureau of Meteorology (BoM) was tasked with collecting, holding, interpreting and disseminating Australia's water information, together with providing reports, forecasts and water accounts information. BoM is working closely with water data owners to coordinate and implement the development of a national system for water information storage, analysis and reporting which requires a high level of collaboration between stakeholders. An external Steering Committee has been formed to oversee the development of the Australian Water Resources Information System (AWRIS). The first phase of AWRIS is focussed around a two-year, $10 million project funded by the National Water Commission's Raising National Water Standards programme. This will deliver
