Australian National Flag Day – 3 September History of Australian National Flag Day Australian National Flag Day celebrates the first time the flag was flown on 3 September 1901. On that day Prime Minister Edmund Barton announced the winners of a competition to find a flag for Australia. It was a large flag, 5.5 metres by 11 metres, and was flown over the dome of the Exhibition Building in Melbourne. At that time the flag was known as the Commonwealth blue ensign; later, the flag became known as the Australian National Flag. Australian National Flag Day was proclaimed by the Governor-General on 28 August 1996 and has been celebrated since 3 September 1996. Celebrating Australian National Flag Day All Australians are encouraged to fly or display the Australian National Flag to celebrate Australian National Flag Day on 3 September each year. Australian National Flag Day is an opportunity for individuals, community organisations, local authorities, businesses and schools to celebrate with pride the anniversary of the Australian National Flag. Some ideas for Australian National Flag Day are: Conduct a flag-raising ceremony. Business and organisations don’t have a flagpole may wish to display the Australian National Flag in the public areas of their buildings, such as foyers.

Join the Commonwealth Flag Network. Australian Flags booklet. School children holding the Australian National Flag at a flagraising ceremony at Parliament House, Canberra. Photo: Auspic. Protocols for Raising the Flag While there are no official guidelines in relation to conducting flag raising ceremonies, basic flag protocol should be observed: the flag should be treated with respect and dignity; the flag should be raised no earlier than dawn and lowered no later than dusk, but may be flown at night when illuminated; the flag should be raised briskly and lowered ceremoniously; the Australian National Flag should be raised first and lowered last; two flags should not be flown from the same flagpole; and the flag should not be allowed to fall or lie on the ground.

[MARC code list for relators ] Changing AACR2 authority records to RDA? All of the above will raise questions in our minds about dealing with legacy AACR2 authority data. Whatever approach is taken comes with advantages, disadvantages and resource challenges. The issues are difficult for individual libraries to resolve in isolation, given the shared environment in which we now operate. Decisions about whether to make retrospective changes to legacy data will therefore need to be considered at local, national and international levels. Discussions are already taking both within Australia and on the international scene but individual libraries will also need to consider these issues for their local catalogues. Example authority records So let’s just refresh ourselves by looking again at the examples we saw in Module 8, to see how our authority records may change. The first example is a brief authority record for Simon Scarrow. There is some information recorded in the 670 that helps to identify Simon, including that he is a college teacher in England. Here is the same record with RDA elements added 040 - $e indicates this is an RDA record 374 – Occupation from RDA 9.16 375 – Gender from RDA 9.7 377 – language from RDA 9.14 (RDA instructs to record the language used by a person in their activity, however the marc $a is the code from the marc language code lists. This RDA authority record, for Anna Marie Johnson, gives us this same information, but in a much more readable and dynamic way. It’s still in the 670, but now each piece of information that helps us uniquely identify Anna is also now in its own element. We can immediately see that she is a female theologian at the Garrett Theological Seminary and that her native language is English. In the previous example, this information was buried in the 670 field and not as easy to see. Not only that, but computer systems can’t distinguish between the different pieces of information contained in that field.
Search for an instruction number – Eg. 2.3.1 Search for “Title proper”. For a phrase search like this you should put the phrase in quotation marks to get the best results. “Wildcard” or “truncation” symbol is * On results screen: In the top of the screen you can see the total number of items found, and the number that are showing on the first page. In the bottom right of the screen is where you can navigate to the next page. Blue “core” icon comes up next to results relating to “core” elements of RDA (see explanation of “core elements” earlier in this presentation). Red “basic” icons indicate those rules which JSC identified as being basic to RDA cataloguing. Results are relevance ranked and you can change this to document order Click on the hyperlinked text of the result you want, (eg 2.3.1 Title proper) to go to that section of RDA. The term you searched by will be highlighted in yellow wherever it appears. If you want to go back to your results set, click on “Return to results” – which is the magnifying glass icon that has now appeared in the Document Menu. 2 things to note: While the “RDA Quick Search” box is VISIBLE wherever you are in the Toolkit, it is only searching the text of RDA, not all the other parts of the Toolkit. To do this, you need to do an advanced search, which we will look at in a moment. For you search to be thorough, you will need to make sure your text view [see view text icon] is “full” (ie not “core” or “hide examples”). If your text view is less than “full”, you will get a warning message that you are only seeing a “filtered” version, and you are therefore not seeing all the results. Advanced Search Screen image from the RDA Toolkit () used by permission of the Co-Publishers for RDA (American Library Association, Canadian Library Association, and CILIP: Chartered Institute of Library and Information Professionals) Search box Advanced search allows you to search the entire Toolkit, or selected parts of it. You can also limit your search by type, or exclude examples.
As well as better defining and expanding the types of relationships that can be recorded, RDA makes provision for, and encourages, the use of “relationships designators”. These are controlled vocabulary terms that can be added to an access point in a bibliographic record to indicate the nature of the relationship between the entity in the access point, and the entity it is attached to. Appendix I, J, K, and L list and explain these designators. Again, they have been divided up according to the various Group 1 entities and types of relationships mentioned above. RDA Section What’s in it 1 – Recording attributes of manifestations and items Instructions on recording the bibliographic description of manifestations and items – eg title, publisher, date of publications etc. 2 - Recording Attributes of Work & Expression Instructions for recording preferred titles (uniform titles) – eg title of the work (note this is different to recording the title of a manifestation) Instructions on recording expression elements of the item being catalogued – eg how the work is expressed, language etc. 3 - Recording Attributes of Person, Family, & Corporate Body Data elements that are recorded in name authority records Constructing access points for persons, families and corporate bodies NOTE: This is not constructing access points 4 - Recording Attributes of Concept, Object, Event & Place Data elements that are recorded in subject authority records – Not yet written 5 - Recording Primary Relationships Between Work, Expression, Manifestation, & Item Broadly about making links between work, expression, manifestation and item by using identifiers, authorised access points and composite descriptions 6 - Recording Relationships to Persons, Families, & Corporate Bodies Choice of access points for persons, families and corporate bodies Relationships established through ‘relationship designators’

For a compilation consisting of: a) two or more but not all the works of one person, family, or corporate body, in a particular form or b) two or more but not all the works of one person, family, or corporate body, in various forms record the preferred title for each of the works in the compilation applying the basic instructions on recording titles of works given under 6.2 2. What is the alternative instruction at 6.2.2.10.3 Answer: Instead of (or in addition to) recording the preferred for each of the works in the compilation, record a conventional collective title as instructed under 6.2.2.10 or 6.2.2.10.2, as applicable, followed by Selections. 3. Record the preferred titles applying the instruction at 6.2.2.10.3 for the following example? *The Raven is a poem *The pit and the pendulum is a short story Answer of manifestation: The raven ; the pit and the pendulum Preferred title: Raven (recorded in marc 240 field) Pit and the pendulum (recorded in marc 700 field) 4. What is the instruction for choosing the preferred for a work that is published concurrently under two different titles proper in the same language in different countries? Hint: See instructions for choosing the preferred title 6.2.2.4 Preferred title is based on the title proper of the manifestation first received, not on the manifestation published in the home country 5. What is the preferred title for a journal with the title proper “Rabbit droppings” and what MARC field would you record it in?
Total workers 100% 100% 100% Proportion of worked Employees 75% 88% 80% With paid leave entitlements 64% 72% 67% Without paid leave entitlements 11% 16% 13% Owner managers 25% 12% 20% Total workers 100% 100% 100% Table 2 shows that in 2009–10, Employees had more than twice the incidence rate of injury than Owner managers. While males recorded a similar ratio, the difference was more pronounced for female workers. In 2009–10, female Employees experienced an incidence rate of injury nearly three times greater than the rate for Owner managers. These differences are likely to be linked to the different industries in which Owner managers work compared with Employees. Just over one-quarter (26%) of male Owner managers were employed in the Construction industry with 12% in the Agriculture, forestry & fishing industry and a further 12% in the Professional, scientific & technical services industry. For female Owner managers, 14% worked in the Professional, scientific & technical services industry, followed by 12% in Agriculture, forestry & fishing and 10% each in Retail services and Other services. Industry injury rates, which will be discussed later in this report, show lower rates in the Professional, scientific & technical services, Retail services and Other services industries which partially explains the lower overall rates for Owner managers compared with Employees who worked in industries with higher rates. Within the Employee group, males recorded similar incidence rates for both the casual and non-casual (Employees with leave entitlements) groups, however, female had a 20% higher incidence rate compared with female casuals. When hours worked are considered, a substantially different pattern emerges. On a per hour worked basis, male and female casual workers experienced the highest injury rates. The frequency rate for casual female employees was 47% higher than the rate for non-casuals and three and a half times the rate for female Owner managers. For males, the frequency rate for casual employees was 54% higher than the rate for and three times the rate for Owner managers. Females worked as casuals mainly in the Retail trade, Accommodation & food services and Health care & social assistance industries. Males worked as casuals mainly in the Retail trade, Accommodation & food services and Construction industries.

10 The Committee recommends that, in order to limit discretionary decision making, promote consistency and safeguard transparency, the guidelines prohibit the use of qualitative assessments across whole tenders. Not supported. For strategic or complex procurement processes the inclusion of qualitative assessment is critical to ensuring for money is achieved by the Commonwealth. Restriction of value for money assessment to only quantitative measures could result in the inability to consider non-financial differences between potential suppliers, and result in an inability for potential suppliers to differentiate themselves from the market. This could result in sub-optimal value for money outcomes for the Commonwealth. 14 The Committee recommends that the Australian Government legislate as a statutory authority under the responsibility of the Minister for Industry, Innovation and Science an Australian Industry Advocate to: • aid Commonwealth agencies to design procurement processes which maximise benefits to the Australian economy and increase opportunities for SME participation; • support Australian businesses to access Commonwealth procurement by promoting opportunities and assisting businesses to promote the economic benefits they can offer; • provide independent, transparent and consistent evaluation of the unique economic benefits offered by different suppliers; • guide Commonwealth agencies’ application of weighted criteria and assessment rubrics to overall procurement evaluations; and • monitor suppliers’ delivery of contracted economic benefits. Not supported. The Government does not support the establishment of a statutory authority, or limiting flexibility within the procurement framework by standardising the assessment of value for money. There are already several Australian Government entities advocating in the interests of Australian businesses, including the Australian Industry Participation Authority, the Australian Small Business and Family Enterprise Ombudsman and the Centre for Defence Industry Capability. These entities and Finance will continue to work closely to ensure all Commonwealth entities are aware early in procurement processes of obligations to provide full, fair and reasonable opportunity for Australian businesses, including SMEs, to compete for major public projects. Australian suppliers are already well represented winning approximately 94% of Commonwealth contracts by number, worth $48.27 billion in 2015-16.
16 The Committee recommends that a Parliamentary inquiry is established by March 2018 to evaluate: • supplier feedback, including on the rewording of clauses identified in this report; • interaction with the Anti-dumping framework and the tax system; and; • recent changes to the Australian Industry Participation Plan policy. • The inquiry should report by the end of 2018. Not supported. Noting the Joint Committee on Public Accounts and Audit already has the duty to 'examine the financial affairs of authorities of the Commonwealth', which can include procurement and tax issues.
MoRA’s uptake of C3 initiatives has sought to bring private Madrasah under the closer supervision of MoRA. Potential exists for resistance from a sector that is defined by its independence from state oversight (see §4.4.4).

TIMELINE National Heritage Places tell the of Australia’s first peoples over tens of thousands of years. The first meeting of the continent’s first people with Europeans probably occurred in Western Australia as Dutch ships were wrecked on the trip north to the Spice Islands (now Indonesia), and sailors such as Dirk Den Hartog left records of their temporary presence at the DIRK HARTOG LANDING SITE. But it is on the KURNELL PENINSULA on Botany Bay that in 1770 they first met men of the British Empire from the scientific expedition led by James Cook. At Sydney Cove in Colonial Sydney, Bennelong and others faced for the first time the colonisation of their land by another people, the first claim by outsiders to the land and the first attempts to farm and create permanent settlements on the land. The records of the D’Entrecasteaux expedition to Recherche Bay are important observations of the Tasmania people before European settlement, and surviving archaeological remains of that visit define an associative cultural landscape of outstanding heritage value. Sites in the World Heritage TASMANIAN WILDERNESS demonstrate human occupation during the last ice age, showing how people practiced hunting and gathering over long periods of time in extreme climatic conditions. In the region of Western Tasmania, also as the Tarkine, the WESTERN TASMANIA ABORIGINAL CULTURAL LANDSCAPE represents some of the best evidence of the lifestyle of Aboriginal people in the past. Dotted along the coastline are the remains of numerous hut depressions found in Aboriginal middens. These huts and middens are the remnants of an unusual specialised and more settled Aboriginal way of life that began almost 2000 years ago and continued up to the 1830s, based on the hunting of seals and land mammals, and the gathering of shellfish. The WILLANDRA REGION provides an exceptional sequence of Aboriginal cultural occupation extending over tens of thousands of years, and is World Heritage listed. The ancient site of the JORDAN RIVER LEVEE contains artefacts showing Aboriginal occupation from approximately 37,000–40,000 years ago.

The Government also funds a number of other mental health services that provide a range of support, from telephone crisis support through to online peer forums, with many addressing LGBTIQ specific issues. These include QLife, Qheadspace, Lifeline, Kids Helpline, and ReachOut. The 2017-18 Federal Budget provided $15 million in additional funding for mental health research, $9.1 million to improve access to psychological services through telehealth in regional, rural and remote Australia, and $11.1 million for suicide prevention programs. In January 2018, the Government also announced a further $110 million to extend and expand mental health programs for young Australians. The Government recently launched Head to Health, a digital gateway which aims to support people to more easily access online and phone mental health and wellbeing advice provided by a range of trusted organisations. This provides a further avenue of support for vulnerable people, including those in the LGBTIQ community. Recommendation 3 The committee recommends that the Australian Electoral Commission actively engage with remote communities and Indigenous peak bodies to increase the number of enrolled people in remote electorates and to increase the participation of enrolled people in local, state and federal elections. Response The Government supports this recommendation, noting that the Australian Electoral Commission (AEC) is responsible for conducting federal elections, including maintaining the Commonwealth electoral roll. Increasing the participation of enrolled people in local and state elections is a matter for state and territory governments. The Government recognises the importance of assisting disadvantaged communities in participating in the electoral process, and supports the Indigenous Electoral Participation Program (IEPP) which aims to help close the gap in Indigenous disadvantage in electoral participation: . The AEC is currently reviewing the IEPP as part of its commitment to continuously educate, improve enrolments and increase participation in federal elections.

Senate Finance and Public Administration References Committee Report on Commonwealth procurement procedures No. Recommendation Government Response 2.34 - The committee recommends that the Department of Finance (Australian Government Procurement Coordinator) consult with Australian industry, and in particular Australian manufacturers, to develop an alternate test which can provide more meaningful information on the quantity of Australian content in goods and services procured by the Commonwealth government, and how to build this information into data collected in AusTender. Not supported. From a practical perspective, any alternate test for capturing data on the quantity of Australian goods and services procured would be impractical to implement and impose significant compliance costs. In particular, a consensus definition of what is ‘Australian’ is difficult to achieve. For example, ‘Australian’ businesses may be resellers of goods manufactured entirely or partially overseas; equally, non-Australian businesses may deliver services that are developed and delivered within Australia, by Australians. In addition, the creation and maintenance of a supplier register, along with the associated authorisation and data quality controls, would impose significant red tape on suppliers for limited benefit. 3.19 - The committee recommends that the Department of Finance provide a detailed explanation of the barriers to developing a preferencing scheme, takes into account Australia's free trade obligations. Not supported. The Department of Finance (Finance) has previously advised that international agreements limit the extent to which the Government can preference local suppliers. Finance has also advised that the CPRs incorporate relevant provisions from the Australia and New Zealand Government Procurement Agreement, Australia Chile Free Trade Agreement, Australia United States Free Trade Agreement, and Singapore Australia Free Trade Agreement. The texts of these agreements are publicly available and detail the commitments entered into by Australia. Free trade agreements (FTAs) give Australian producers and manufacturers access to a market of billions of consumers rather than just Australia’s 23 million. To achieve the full potential of our trade, we must overcome any barriers that face our exporters, whether tariffs or other impediments, which are attached to our goods and services. Reduced tariffs give Australian companies greater opportunities for expansion into previously protected markets.
E. Indigenous measures The 2014-15 Budget investment of $A 4.8 billion includes several new initiatives including the Community Development Programme; The Employment Parity Initiative; Commonwealth Indigenous Procurement; and environment programmes. These measures aim to create greater participation and employment opportunities for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples

Protect and restore specific spawning habitat in catchments with important populations of Australian Grayling. Corangamite CMA, West Gippsland CMA, East Gippsland CMA, Melbourne Glenelg Hopkins CMA Standard objective Objective explanation To secure populations or habitat from potentially incompatible land use or catastrophic loss Important life history stages of Australian Grayling, including spawning and dispersal, are associated with increases in flow. Poor water quality as a result of low flows can also impact upon this species. Consequently, modifications to the natural flow regimes of streams and rivers are a major threat to this species. Standard action Details Responsible agents Provide adequate environmental flows Sites which are highly regulated may not provide conditions which are required to initiate spawning and the associated flows necessary to carry larvae to sea. Furthermore, highly regulated may not provide adequate attraction flows for returning juveniles following their marine larval phase. Additionally, lack of flows through water abstraction may lead to a reduction in the period in which the rivers estuarine entrance is open to the sea. This may lead to the inability of larval Australian Grayling to access habitat necessary for their early development. Poor water quality, as a result of low flows, may also adversely impact this species, through increased water temperatures and low dissolved oxygen levels. Corangamite CMA, West Gippsland CMA, East Gippsland CMA, Melbourne Water, Glenelg Hopkins CMA, DELWP Develop, provide input to or implement park, reserve or land management plan. Incorporate actions to conserve Australian Grayling into catchment management and river health programs where appropriate Melbourne Corangamite CMA, West Gippsland CMA, East Gippsland CMA, Port Phillip and Westernport CMA, Glenelg Hopkins CMA
