1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,199 Speaker 1: Well, we have just learned that the Minister for Local Government, 2 00:00:03,279 --> 00:00:07,600 Speaker 1: Chancey Paigs today place the Berkley Regional Council under official 3 00:00:07,640 --> 00:00:10,920 Speaker 1: management and all elected members have been suspended from office. 4 00:00:11,160 --> 00:00:14,440 Speaker 1: Now joining me in the studio is the Darwin Lord 5 00:00:14,520 --> 00:00:16,720 Speaker 1: Mayor convat Scarlars. Good morning to Yukon. 6 00:00:17,239 --> 00:00:19,320 Speaker 2: Good morning kid. But I can't comment on that as 7 00:00:19,320 --> 00:00:21,280 Speaker 2: the mayor of the Mayor of Darwin. But I can 8 00:00:21,280 --> 00:00:23,759 Speaker 2: comment as the president of a logo. Yes, associate you 9 00:00:23,880 --> 00:00:24,279 Speaker 2: so can. 10 00:00:24,200 --> 00:00:25,960 Speaker 1: I ask you? This isn't the first time that this 11 00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:31,080 Speaker 1: has happened. Palmerston was placed under under that management and 12 00:00:31,200 --> 00:00:32,559 Speaker 1: number of years back as well. 13 00:00:33,040 --> 00:00:36,520 Speaker 2: Absolutely. Look, there is the Local Government Act. All councils 14 00:00:36,560 --> 00:00:38,959 Speaker 2: are bound to comply with the Act. If you don't 15 00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:42,040 Speaker 2: comply with the Act, don't blame anybody else but yourself. 16 00:00:42,360 --> 00:00:46,760 Speaker 2: Obviously the problem Buckley. I'm aware that two CEOs resigned 17 00:00:47,280 --> 00:00:51,559 Speaker 2: within twelve to eighteen months. Are the pit resigned? There 18 00:00:51,840 --> 00:00:55,040 Speaker 2: was in fighting. I could hear that one was happening. 19 00:00:55,360 --> 00:00:56,960 Speaker 2: It's not for me to short it out. It's for 20 00:00:56,960 --> 00:00:59,720 Speaker 2: the council themselves to short it out. And I'm disappointed 21 00:00:59,720 --> 00:01:02,840 Speaker 2: to that stage when the Minister has to intervene and 22 00:01:02,920 --> 00:01:05,959 Speaker 2: actually suspend the council. It gives a really bad name 23 00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:09,600 Speaker 2: to local government. But local government is not a bad place. 24 00:01:09,880 --> 00:01:12,400 Speaker 2: It's a good place. Now in the past eight years. 25 00:01:12,319 --> 00:01:14,319 Speaker 1: Sounds like it's a basket case at the. 26 00:01:15,160 --> 00:01:18,039 Speaker 2: Partly obviously basket case. Now in the past eight years, 27 00:01:18,040 --> 00:01:20,720 Speaker 2: who had two councils in the territory suspended. You go 28 00:01:20,840 --> 00:01:24,319 Speaker 2: down south and you've got suspensions every day. Again, that's 29 00:01:24,360 --> 00:01:27,480 Speaker 2: not an excuse. My advice to the local government here 30 00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:31,039 Speaker 2: the territory is behave yourself, comply with the act. Don't 31 00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:34,360 Speaker 2: blame that anybody else. Look inwards and see what you've 32 00:01:34,400 --> 00:01:36,840 Speaker 2: done right, what you've done wrong. I'm not going there 33 00:01:36,840 --> 00:01:38,280 Speaker 2: to defend you if you don't do the right thing. 34 00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:42,679 Speaker 2: I'm going actually to tell tough biggie guys, you behave yourself, 35 00:01:42,880 --> 00:01:45,800 Speaker 2: you comply with the act. Minister has to act is 36 00:01:46,360 --> 00:01:49,960 Speaker 2: bad to act under the legislation, and he acted well. 37 00:01:50,040 --> 00:01:54,360 Speaker 1: Fundamentally, councils are elected by territorians to do their jobs. 38 00:01:54,360 --> 00:01:56,480 Speaker 1: If you're not doing it, Oran expect councils to do 39 00:01:56,520 --> 00:01:58,520 Speaker 1: that exactly. And if you're not doing your job, and 40 00:01:58,560 --> 00:02:01,200 Speaker 1: if you're not managing things properly. You do then expect 41 00:02:01,440 --> 00:02:02,400 Speaker 1: the government to step in. 42 00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:05,040 Speaker 2: Make it clear. I don't think they's got to do 43 00:02:05,160 --> 00:02:08,639 Speaker 2: match with the mayor because he suspended the whole council. 44 00:02:09,160 --> 00:02:12,200 Speaker 2: Otherwise you could suspend only the mayor because the mayor 45 00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:15,360 Speaker 2: still has to face investigator by the police. Do you 46 00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:18,040 Speaker 2: suspend the whole council? And the thing it means it 47 00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:21,600 Speaker 2: was the whole council at fault, not one individual. 48 00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:25,600 Speaker 1: Interesting stuff, No doubt there'll be some further detail come through. 49 00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:28,079 Speaker 1: I mean con in your role though, as the local 50 00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:32,720 Speaker 1: government head, local government association head, I mean, are we 51 00:02:32,760 --> 00:02:34,880 Speaker 1: talking about mismanagement of money here? Do you know what 52 00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:36,119 Speaker 1: we're talking It's something. 53 00:02:35,919 --> 00:02:39,120 Speaker 2: To be investigated. That's why they appointed the investigator. What 54 00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:42,000 Speaker 2: I was here in the Great Barn was in fighting. 55 00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:46,200 Speaker 2: There were people there waiting campaign against others, which is 56 00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:48,640 Speaker 2: really really bad if you've got such a division a council. 57 00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:50,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, it truly is. And what it does is it 58 00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:52,799 Speaker 1: means that you're not actually doing your job for the people. 59 00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:55,799 Speaker 2: And the thing is, please people that you're electing council. 60 00:02:55,960 --> 00:02:58,840 Speaker 2: Leave your egos and your ambitions outside the door when 61 00:02:58,880 --> 00:03:01,959 Speaker 2: you enter the chambers and work the best for your people. 62 00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:04,799 Speaker 1: Well, no doubt, we'll find out more detail about this 63 00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:07,280 Speaker 1: over the coming days. Con I do want to ask 64 00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:09,240 Speaker 1: you what was your reaction to the voice to the 65 00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:10,560 Speaker 1: resounding no vice. 66 00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:13,480 Speaker 2: Not surprised, Not surprised at all. From the very beginning 67 00:03:13,520 --> 00:03:15,000 Speaker 2: when I was talking to people who were asking me 68 00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:17,480 Speaker 2: what I thought, I said, it's going to be lost, 69 00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:20,800 Speaker 2: and it's going to be lost because the government not 70 00:03:20,880 --> 00:03:24,600 Speaker 2: come out with you know, campaign or one, tell people 71 00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:27,320 Speaker 2: what you actually want to do, How is it going 72 00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:30,040 Speaker 2: to work, what is going to be? What we look like? 73 00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:32,800 Speaker 2: We didn't have any of this information. So I'm not 74 00:03:32,840 --> 00:03:35,000 Speaker 2: surprised that people says, well, what am I going to vote? 75 00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:37,920 Speaker 2: Trust me? Does work anymore? People want to have a 76 00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:41,400 Speaker 2: concrete evidence before them to make a decision. The government 77 00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:45,400 Speaker 2: left a void. That void was filled with misinformation and doubt. 78 00:03:45,920 --> 00:03:48,640 Speaker 1: Speaking of coin, someone's just messaged through and said, can 79 00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:51,840 Speaker 1: you please ask about reconciliation, which is listed as a 80 00:03:51,920 --> 00:03:54,680 Speaker 1: major work on both or on the Darwin and Palmerston 81 00:03:54,840 --> 00:03:58,480 Speaker 1: your Rights Explained pamphlet.

We've got a significant number of employees 86 00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:13,200 Speaker 2: in our council, the Indigenous people, and we've got a 87 00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:16,920 Speaker 2: reconciliation plan and many many years considering that our city 88 00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:20,679 Speaker 2: has got the significant Edigenous population. Sorry about my voice, guys, 89 00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:23,279 Speaker 2: but it seems like I've got something. But I will 90 00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:27,159 Speaker 2: talk about it because it's important to understand it. Living 91 00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:29,800 Speaker 2: together in harmony, it's great. And I have to say 92 00:04:29,800 --> 00:04:31,719 Speaker 2: that I've been in down With thirty years and I 93 00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:35,480 Speaker 2: always admired how people in Darwin are so friendly and 94 00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:36,280 Speaker 2: relate to each other. 95 00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:38,400 Speaker 1: Is it something that's costing money though? Is that why 96 00:04:38,400 --> 00:04:39,719 Speaker 1: it's only your rights pampilts? 97 00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:43,240 Speaker 2: No, we try to explain people what reconciliation is. The 98 00:04:44,120 --> 00:04:47,919 Speaker 2: amount of money we spent for this reconciliation event and 99 00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:50,560 Speaker 2: council it's minimal. It's very very small. 100 00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:52,840 Speaker 1: I mean, is it something that the council needs to 101 00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:53,920 Speaker 1: be focusing on now? 102 00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:58,360 Speaker 2: Even when organization Australia private and non private doing it 103 00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:01,560 Speaker 2: because they won't maintain the good lession between Indigenous and 104 00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:02,480 Speaker 2: Indigenous people. 105 00:05:02,640 --> 00:05:06,719 Speaker 1: Con Do you know if tonight I understand council's meeting again. 106 00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:09,480 Speaker 1: Are we going to have a situation where that motion 107 00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:12,120 Speaker 1: was moved a few weeks ago where one of the 108 00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:15,840 Speaker 1: counselors was wanting to actually have council staff be able 109 00:05:15,839 --> 00:05:18,039 Speaker 1: to wear the Yes campaign shirts and be able to 110 00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:21,280 Speaker 1: if they chose to support that campaign. That had been 111 00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:23,400 Speaker 1: delayed basically till tonight after the vice. 112 00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:26,520 Speaker 2: It's still in the paper to be debated. Yeah, it's 113 00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:29,479 Speaker 2: up to the council if you wants to actually be debated, 114 00:05:29,520 --> 00:05:32,880 Speaker 2: which I can't see what will achieve or can we 115 00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:35,080 Speaker 2: throw it? But still in the paper now. 116 00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:38,080 Speaker 1: Con We just caught up with Leofanocchiaro, the opposition leader, 117 00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:41,080 Speaker 1: just after nine o'clock this morning. She is reintroducing some 118 00:05:41,240 --> 00:05:44,479 Speaker 1: legislation tomorrow around the two kilometer law when it comes 119 00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:47,240 Speaker 1: to drinking in public now the governments. It pains to 120 00:05:47,240 --> 00:05:49,480 Speaker 1: say that this law is still in place, but I 121 00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:51,360 Speaker 1: know that you and I have spoken about it before. 122 00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:54,920 Speaker 1: It does not seem to be getting well. People are 123 00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:57,919 Speaker 1: still drinking in public places now. She said that the 124 00:05:58,040 --> 00:06:00,600 Speaker 1: legislation that she's putting forward would be the police are 125 00:06:00,640 --> 00:06:03,640 Speaker 1: able to ask someone for their license, They're able to 126 00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:05,680 Speaker 1: then run a search or or you know, run that 127 00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:08,920 Speaker 1: license through and see whether they're you know, whether they've 128 00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:11,240 Speaker 1: got any warrants out against them and that kind of thing. 129 00:06:11,520 --> 00:06:13,400 Speaker 1: Do you think that that will work? Is that something 130 00:06:13,440 --> 00:06:14,400 Speaker 1: counseled would support? 131 00:06:14,760 --> 00:06:18,320 Speaker 2: Well, course, only Leah for bringing this legislation on the 132 00:06:18,400 --> 00:06:20,839 Speaker 2: reality is, first of all, I don't think will pass 133 00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:22,440 Speaker 2: because you don't have the numbers. I mean, and I'm 134 00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:25,920 Speaker 2: talking about as a person who's been in PYM before. Second, 135 00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:28,200 Speaker 2: even if it goes through, who is going to policit? 136 00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:30,360 Speaker 2: We've got the police are tell us they don't have 137 00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:32,719 Speaker 2: people to put on the streets. So if they are 138 00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:34,720 Speaker 2: not police on the streets, who is going to policit 139 00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:38,200 Speaker 2: because rangers, my rangers cannot don't have the legal power, 140 00:06:38,480 --> 00:06:40,600 Speaker 2: don't have the authority, and they will not do it. 141 00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:43,480 Speaker 1: So who at the moment is going around and tipping 142 00:06:43,520 --> 00:06:44,320 Speaker 1: out alcohol? 143 00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:47,479 Speaker 2: The police only the police only has the power to 144 00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:48,839 Speaker 2: tip alcohol off. 145 00:06:48,880 --> 00:06:49,800 Speaker 1: And are they doing that? 146 00:06:49,880 --> 00:06:53,080 Speaker 2: From your perspective, my understanding is where they can they do? 147 00:06:53,279 --> 00:06:55,719 Speaker 2: Where they're out, they're doing it if they see something 148 00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:56,440 Speaker 2: doing something wrong? 149 00:06:56,480 --> 00:06:59,159 Speaker 1: Well, so they wouldn't you support this actually happening? Meaning 150 00:06:59,200 --> 00:07:01,159 Speaker 1: that it's a struct think of the laws I've. 151 00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:03,839 Speaker 2: Been asking for that enforced the legislation of two kilometer laws. 152 00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:06,279 Speaker 2: Remember when we have the argument about is it on 153 00:07:06,440 --> 00:07:08,599 Speaker 2: or not, and the visays it's on, and our argument 154 00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:10,880 Speaker 2: as well, why it's not happening. That's exactly the police 155 00:07:10,880 --> 00:07:12,680 Speaker 2: said to us because first of all, we don't have 156 00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:15,120 Speaker 2: people to put on the street. I understand that. Second 157 00:07:15,200 --> 00:07:18,000 Speaker 2: is because we can only tip alcohol out and nothing 158 00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:20,600 Speaker 2: else is strong legislation. 159 00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:23,560 Speaker 1: So do you support the strengthening of that legislation. 160 00:07:23,800 --> 00:07:27,400 Speaker 2: Absolutely? I support the lester of the legislation. I support 161 00:07:27,440 --> 00:07:30,160 Speaker 2: bringing more police on the streets. I support make changes 162 00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:33,560 Speaker 2: in the roster, may change the arrangements to strengthen the police. 163 00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:37,080 Speaker 2: The poor baggers, they're doing the best they can returs 164 00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:39,520 Speaker 2: they've got, and I admire them from them for that. 165 00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:41,920 Speaker 2: I have given my full support the police, and I 166 00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:45,160 Speaker 2: will continue to do so. I put proposals on the table. 167 00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:48,320 Speaker 2: Let me tell you something else. I have a liquor 168 00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:51,960 Speaker 2: person works in a liquor outlet. It told me make 169 00:07:52,120 --> 00:07:55,400 Speaker 2: all the transactions in the liquor outlets cast free as 170 00:07:55,400 --> 00:07:57,960 Speaker 2: a why because a lot of people come and buying 171 00:07:58,120 --> 00:08:01,600 Speaker 2: huge quotes of alcohol with cash and we can't. You 172 00:08:01,640 --> 00:08:02,280 Speaker 2: can't trast that. 173 00:08:02,520 --> 00:08:07,480 Speaker 1: So why are we not strengthening the kissing around with this? 174 00:08:07,600 --> 00:08:10,200 Speaker 2: Bdo have the BDR to find out who buys alcohol? 175 00:08:10,840 --> 00:08:14,000 Speaker 2: Limit supply per day use it? If you don't live 176 00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:16,160 Speaker 2: in down we can only buy so much alcohol. 177 00:08:16,280 --> 00:08:20,080 Speaker 1: Why is the government not doing that? Like it's there 178 00:08:20,520 --> 00:08:24,160 Speaker 1: head on it. Well, you might need to, but the 179 00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:27,560 Speaker 1: BDR is already there. Like you know, people are already 180 00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:31,480 Speaker 1: presenting their licenses when they go to purchase alcohol. How 181 00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:34,599 Speaker 1: are we this far in and we've not streamlined it. 182 00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:38,280 Speaker 2: That's the question I'd be asking to and I get 183 00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:39,320 Speaker 2: don't get no answer. 184 00:08:39,920 --> 00:08:42,360 Speaker 1: You know, why are they not listening? Like Marian Strangel 185 00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:44,600 Speaker 1: joined us on the show yesterday, she said, they need 186 00:08:44,640 --> 00:08:46,040 Speaker 1: to sit down and they need to listen. 187 00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:48,640 Speaker 2: Mary and I talked to each other very very often. 188 00:08:48,880 --> 00:08:50,960 Speaker 2: We've got the same ideas and no Marian for a 189 00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:54,079 Speaker 2: long time. She's a very strong advoge for Indigenous people 190 00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:57,239 Speaker 2: and she sees that damage alcohol does to her community. 191 00:08:57,840 --> 00:09:00,839 Speaker 2: How the hell if you realize that that damage happens 192 00:09:00,880 --> 00:09:03,720 Speaker 2: to community and of course to the rest of the community, 193 00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:06,800 Speaker 2: to not step in and take action, well, and the leak, 194 00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:11,880 Speaker 2: the hospitality industry has been telling me they want tougher measures. 195 00:09:12,160 --> 00:09:14,360 Speaker 1: Well, they've said to me on numerous occasions they want 196 00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:16,320 Speaker 1: the BDR to work better. Out that they want the 197 00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:18,520 Speaker 1: BDR to be able to do things like see how 198 00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:21,200 Speaker 1: many transactions someone's made, et cetera. I know it will 199 00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:23,600 Speaker 1: make it hard then for the person working in the 200 00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:25,880 Speaker 1: liquor store to actually be able to go, well, sorry, 201 00:09:25,920 --> 00:09:27,960 Speaker 1: you know you can't purchase that alcohol today. And I 202 00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:30,440 Speaker 1: don't want people in those stores to be put in 203 00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:34,040 Speaker 1: dangerous situations. But the fact is they're already having to 204 00:09:34,120 --> 00:09:35,400 Speaker 1: ask for those licenses. 205 00:09:35,559 --> 00:09:37,560 Speaker 2: Harping about it. I know some people on the fifth 206 00:09:37,559 --> 00:09:39,800 Speaker 2: floor things, I'm a bastard for bringing it up. I 207 00:09:39,840 --> 00:09:41,560 Speaker 2: can be a bustard.
