1
00:00:00,640 --> 00:00:03,520
Speaker 1: New Jersey and Amanda jam Nation.

2
00:00:03,680 --> 00:00:07,080
Speaker 2: Just reading the prospective new counselors have already been read

3
00:00:07,120 --> 00:00:10,319
Speaker 2: the Riot Act by Planning Minister Paul Scully who said

4
00:00:10,320 --> 00:00:12,360
Speaker 2: it will use the local government elections.

5
00:00:12,360 --> 00:00:14,400
Speaker 1: They're all coming up the local.

6
00:00:14,120 --> 00:00:15,840
Speaker 3: Government posters everywhere there, everywhere.

7
00:00:15,840 --> 00:00:20,000
Speaker 1: There's a lot of independence, which worries me because nothing

8
00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:22,759
Speaker 1: gets done when it's all independence. They're just so niche,

9
00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:24,240
Speaker 1: so nothing gets done.

10
00:00:24,440 --> 00:00:28,640
Speaker 2: But that's where we're at politically. But analysis of council

11
00:00:28,680 --> 00:00:31,400
Speaker 2: planning data has shown seven New South walest councils over

12
00:00:31,400 --> 00:00:34,200
Speaker 2: the last financial year took more than two hundred days

13
00:00:34,680 --> 00:00:36,720
Speaker 2: to put a pergola up to make a decision on

14
00:00:36,760 --> 00:00:38,080
Speaker 2: development applications.

15
00:00:38,840 --> 00:00:42,200
Speaker 3: There are some councils that are so notoriously slow.

16
00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:45,199
Speaker 2: I think of the gray Gums Cafe up with the

17
00:00:45,240 --> 00:00:48,280
Speaker 2: Putty Road there. It's a nice motorcycling destination, but they've

18
00:00:48,320 --> 00:00:51,080
Speaker 2: had Singleton councilors just put them through the ringer about

19
00:00:51,080 --> 00:00:53,159
Speaker 2: the difference to a gazebo and a pergola.

20
00:00:53,320 --> 00:00:54,200
Speaker 1: It is nuts.

21
00:00:54,440 --> 00:00:56,480
Speaker 2: The place is like in the middle of nowhere and

22
00:00:56,480 --> 00:01:01,320
Speaker 2: they've got these got to do an acoustics study and

23
00:01:01,360 --> 00:01:05,720
Speaker 2: it's in the middle of zebo and then the councils

24
00:01:06,040 --> 00:01:08,360
Speaker 2: they go and spend all this money on an acoustic study,

25
00:01:08,560 --> 00:01:11,280
Speaker 2: and then the council charges them eighteen hundred bucks to

26
00:01:11,319 --> 00:01:12,600
Speaker 2: listen to it.

27
00:01:12,600 --> 00:01:14,000
Speaker 1: So the acoustics.

28
00:01:13,480 --> 00:01:15,480
Speaker 3: Study, How do any businesses survive?

29
00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:17,280
Speaker 1: How did we build that? How did we build the

30
00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:20,520
Speaker 1: Harbor Bridge? I have no idea so on that. There's that.

31
00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:23,280
Speaker 2: And I was watching ACA last night and there's a

32
00:01:23,360 --> 00:01:27,040
Speaker 2: story about a Sydney immrogant's decision to protect her Australian

33
00:01:27,080 --> 00:01:28,800
Speaker 2: citizenships certificate.

34
00:01:29,200 --> 00:01:31,600
Speaker 1: So she laminated it back in the seventies.

35
00:01:31,680 --> 00:01:34,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, correct, And so she's never had a passport, she's

36
00:01:34,760 --> 00:01:36,640
Speaker 2: never had a driver's license, she's never had any of

37
00:01:36,680 --> 00:01:37,119
Speaker 2: those things.

38
00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:40,440
Speaker 1: All she's got is this certificate that she laminated.

39
00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:42,560
Speaker 3: Well, there be so many stories that people who came

40
00:01:42,560 --> 00:01:45,240
Speaker 3: in without passports came here under die conditions and didn't.

41
00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:46,959
Speaker 2: Have no But she wasn't under die conditions. She went

42
00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:50,840
Speaker 2: through the whole thing, the citizenship, passport, but her past.

43
00:01:51,120 --> 00:01:53,200
Speaker 2: I'm not too sure why she doesn't have a passport,

44
00:01:53,480 --> 00:01:56,240
Speaker 2: but she came out here, did the citizenship and.

45
00:01:56,320 --> 00:01:57,840
Speaker 3: Was so proud of it. She laminated it.

46
00:01:58,000 --> 00:01:59,080
Speaker 1: They said, you better look after this.

47
00:01:59,120 --> 00:02:01,520
Speaker 2: We went down to office and she came from India

48
00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:04,200
Speaker 2: where they didn't have things like laminating machine, so she thought,

49
00:02:04,240 --> 00:02:04,840
Speaker 2: how good is this?

50
00:02:05,520 --> 00:02:06,840
Speaker 1: So she's got it laminated.

51
00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:10,040
Speaker 2: The thing about that is she has to go to

52
00:02:10,160 --> 00:02:14,520
Speaker 2: her bank and the bank will only accept an ID

53
00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:18,040
Speaker 2: photo ID from Service New South.

54
00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:21,040
Speaker 3: Wales, so she means a passport or a driver's license.

55
00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:22,040
Speaker 1: Yet which she doesn't have.

56
00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:25,240
Speaker 2: But so she goes to Service New South Wales with

57
00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:29,280
Speaker 2: her stific laminated and then they said no, no, no, Dice,

58
00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:30,440
Speaker 2: this can't happen.

59
00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:34,400
Speaker 4: Her only crime was to value the document she was

60
00:02:34,480 --> 00:02:36,360
Speaker 4: issued in nineteen seventy one.

61
00:02:36,639 --> 00:02:39,760
Speaker 5: So proud was Eudorra to become an Aussie citizen. She

62
00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:43,960
Speaker 5: took her certificate to get laminated a plastic coating to

63
00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:47,400
Speaker 5: keep it from being torn or damaged. And you just

64
00:02:47,440 --> 00:02:49,560
Speaker 5: thought you were doing the right thing by looking after

65
00:02:49,600 --> 00:02:51,880
Speaker 5: this pressures it didn't to.

66
00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:54,799
Speaker 4: Want to know life. Then you'll get if you want

67
00:02:54,840 --> 00:02:58,160
Speaker 4: to give this intol get it laminated too, off Ivent,

68
00:02:58,360 --> 00:03:02,239
Speaker 4: I didn't know you're in Australia there, so I wanton

69
00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:04,919
Speaker 4: did it and I didn't think there was a big.

70
00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:08,800
Speaker 5: Deal, But laminating turns out is a big deal.

71
00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:10,440
Speaker 1: So that's where we're at now.

72
00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:12,519
Speaker 3: It's not being accepted because it was laminated.

73
00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:15,560
Speaker 1: Yes, because people can tamper with it underneath.

74
00:03:15,720 --> 00:03:18,079
Speaker 3: Oh, this makes my head cave in, because it's the

75
00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:19,400
Speaker 3: sort of thing that wakes up at one in the

76
00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:22,320
Speaker 3: morning inexplicably. Where's my? Where's my?

77
00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:25,240
Speaker 1: I saw this exactly. I saw this story last night,

78
00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:27,240
Speaker 1: and I'm going to Helen, where's the last name? Why

79
00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:28,640
Speaker 1: are you doing this now? And I said, I've just

80
00:03:28,639 --> 00:03:29,680
Speaker 1: got to find the staff I know.

81
00:03:29,720 --> 00:03:32,920
Speaker 3: And the minute you start ruminating on it, goodbye sleep.

82
00:03:33,600 --> 00:03:34,560
Speaker 1: You know what you find?

83
00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:37,760
Speaker 2: You find a manual to a VCR that you chucked

84
00:03:37,760 --> 00:03:38,800
Speaker 2: out sixteen.

85
00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:41,040
Speaker 3: I've had mine laminated. I know exactly where that is.
