1
00:00:00,600 --> 00:00:02,440
Speaker 1: If you want to know what's happening on the local

2
00:00:02,440 --> 00:00:05,600
Speaker 1: political landscape, Katy Wolf has it covered on three sixty.

3
00:00:06,040 --> 00:00:09,120
Speaker 1: Everyone is listening mixed one oh four point nine.

4
00:00:09,320 --> 00:00:10,360
Speaker 2: We are You.

5
00:00:10,360 --> 00:00:14,440
Speaker 1: May have just heard the Lord May. Then combat Scarlus

6
00:00:14,520 --> 00:00:17,120
Speaker 1: joins me in the studio, good morning to you are not.

7
00:00:17,160 --> 00:00:18,599
Speaker 2: Quick to put the microphone off.

8
00:00:18,720 --> 00:00:21,640
Speaker 1: Jesus had it all ready and then you yelled.

9
00:00:21,400 --> 00:00:23,120
Speaker 2: At you want to talk about?

10
00:00:23,600 --> 00:00:26,720
Speaker 1: Well, Corn, what don't I want to talk about this morning? Hey,

11
00:00:26,760 --> 00:00:30,960
Speaker 1: let's start with yesterday. Mattie Hepworth spoke fairly extensively about

12
00:00:30,960 --> 00:00:33,879
Speaker 1: this proposal. Let's been put forward for a stadium in

13
00:00:33,920 --> 00:00:36,040
Speaker 1: the CBD. What are your thoughts, as the Lord.

14
00:00:35,920 --> 00:00:40,280
Speaker 2: Mayor don't we have one already? We call it TiO Stadium.

15
00:00:40,400 --> 00:00:42,720
Speaker 3: Now okay, I thought about it extensively and I thought,

16
00:00:42,760 --> 00:00:45,919
Speaker 3: Jesus Sir, a good idea, But how many times will

17
00:00:45,920 --> 00:00:48,680
Speaker 3: we be using it? How many people would be attracting?

18
00:00:48,760 --> 00:00:50,720
Speaker 3: And peoples are But in Queensland, yeah, but if you

19
00:00:50,720 --> 00:00:51,040
Speaker 3: look at.

20
00:00:51,040 --> 00:00:55,560
Speaker 1: Queensland, also Queensland in Townsville they actually have an NRL team.

21
00:00:55,600 --> 00:00:58,120
Speaker 3: But also if you look at the distance between cities

22
00:00:58,160 --> 00:01:01,640
Speaker 3: and Queenslands, about the hundre kilometers hundred three. Our next

23
00:01:02,040 --> 00:01:05,200
Speaker 3: biggest city is Catherine three hundred and fifty kilometers to

24
00:01:05,200 --> 00:01:07,960
Speaker 3: seven thousand people. We've got one hundred ten thousand people here.

25
00:01:08,440 --> 00:01:11,039
Speaker 3: How many people would come here towards in the middle

26
00:01:11,040 --> 00:01:14,360
Speaker 3: of the city again three four times a year? And

27
00:01:14,440 --> 00:01:16,440
Speaker 3: what how were we do with Marari will become a

28
00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:18,959
Speaker 3: ghost down? How about we save two hundred and fifty

29
00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:21,640
Speaker 3: million dollars. We can spend them somewhere else, like the

30
00:01:21,680 --> 00:01:25,399
Speaker 3: government can put it in underground parlor or upgrade royal

31
00:01:25,440 --> 00:01:27,840
Speaker 3: down hostel and put fifty million dollars in Mara to

32
00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:28,600
Speaker 3: make it stead.

33
00:01:28,360 --> 00:01:28,760
Speaker 2: Of the art.

34
00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:31,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, look, I get the argument. You know that it

35
00:01:31,200 --> 00:01:33,559
Speaker 1: would be a great thing obviously to attract people into

36
00:01:33,560 --> 00:01:37,120
Speaker 1: the city, and that other other locations have a similar

37
00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:40,600
Speaker 1: similar stadiums, that they do good things in terms of activating.

38
00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:43,800
Speaker 1: But look for me, first and foremost is do we

39
00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:45,360
Speaker 1: have the money and where do we get the money?

40
00:01:45,560 --> 00:01:48,480
Speaker 1: Has the landholder in the location we were actually talking about,

41
00:01:48,920 --> 00:01:51,200
Speaker 1: are they for it? You know, what's the what's the

42
00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:53,840
Speaker 1: go in that sense? But also we don't have an

43
00:01:53,920 --> 00:01:56,480
Speaker 1: NRL team or we don't have an AFL team, so

44
00:01:56,520 --> 00:01:58,720
Speaker 1: as you've rightly pointed out that I have time.

45
00:01:58,920 --> 00:02:00,960
Speaker 3: It's going to be here from our to come here

46
00:02:01,040 --> 00:02:03,280
Speaker 3: to play, and that will happen probably about three or

47
00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:06,120
Speaker 3: four times a year. Three hundred million dollars for three

48
00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:08,679
Speaker 3: four times a year. I think it's a very big

49
00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:10,920
Speaker 3: spend and quite right, who is going to pay for it?

50
00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:14,119
Speaker 3: Because if the government decides to put the money, boy,

51
00:02:14,160 --> 00:02:17,160
Speaker 3: they're going to be very brave government when they can't

52
00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:18,919
Speaker 3: find money for other essential things.

53
00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:21,799
Speaker 2: Look, I don't think the government's very keen to find

54
00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:22,920
Speaker 2: three hundred million dollars.

55
00:02:23,480 --> 00:02:25,320
Speaker 1: I don't think they've got three hundred million dollars.

56
00:02:25,639 --> 00:02:28,400
Speaker 3: And to be fair, to be fair, they've got other

57
00:02:28,440 --> 00:02:32,160
Speaker 3: things to address at the moment. And how many house

58
00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:34,640
Speaker 3: can you build in a remote community with three hundred

59
00:02:34,639 --> 00:02:35,200
Speaker 3: million dollars?

60
00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:37,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, And look, this is the thing I you know,

61
00:02:37,320 --> 00:02:39,760
Speaker 1: I always admire people thinking outside the box, and I

62
00:02:39,760 --> 00:02:43,280
Speaker 1: always admire coming up with different ideas. But for me,

63
00:02:43,280 --> 00:02:45,760
Speaker 1: there's a lot of questions there that still need to

64
00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:46,360
Speaker 1: be answered.

65
00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:49,240
Speaker 3: If you look at it the way the land falls,

66
00:02:49,320 --> 00:02:51,720
Speaker 3: you can actually put a beautiful resort there to actually

67
00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:53,600
Speaker 3: attract tourists in the city which they come.

68
00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:57,280
Speaker 2: Then we know they will come because they're already here now.

69
00:02:57,160 --> 00:02:59,800
Speaker 1: Connor, I want to talk about these old fresco dining

70
00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:02,400
Speaker 1: I know that it's something that we spoke about last

71
00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:05,920
Speaker 1: week when the council handed down the proposed budget, but

72
00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:08,400
Speaker 1: I read in the paper over the weekend the Darwen

73
00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:11,560
Speaker 1: Council Alderman hopes to build an incentive for cafes and

74
00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:15,639
Speaker 1: restaurants to adopt these elfresco dining fees across the municipality

75
00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:19,400
Speaker 1: in the wake of the proposed reintroduction. So in response

76
00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:22,720
Speaker 1: to the council's twenty twenty one twenty two draft budget

77
00:03:22,840 --> 00:03:26,760
Speaker 1: and municipal plan proposed to bring back these elfresco dining

78
00:03:26,760 --> 00:03:30,960
Speaker 1: fees costing CBD venues seven dollars per table per week

79
00:03:31,360 --> 00:03:35,200
Speaker 1: and suburban venues four dollars per table per week, Alderman

80
00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:38,320
Speaker 1: Paul Arnold set a spin off of the successful My

81
00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:41,920
Speaker 1: Darwin scheme could offset the fees and be run from

82
00:03:42,040 --> 00:03:45,880
Speaker 1: funds raised through that levee. Is this a good idea?

83
00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:49,440
Speaker 3: What do you think if we are going to subsidize

84
00:03:49,480 --> 00:03:52,120
Speaker 3: on fresco or what happened to all the other retailers

85
00:03:52,160 --> 00:03:55,120
Speaker 3: that people they sell shoes or bags or books? How

86
00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:57,040
Speaker 3: are we going to help them? And if we're going

87
00:03:57,080 --> 00:03:58,600
Speaker 3: to help all these people, we have to find the

88
00:03:58,640 --> 00:04:03,080
Speaker 3: money somewhere. Are you agreeing to increase to increase your

89
00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:05,400
Speaker 3: rate to subsidize a business.

90
00:04:05,480 --> 00:04:07,200
Speaker 1: Look for me, I'm not a big fan of the

91
00:04:07,200 --> 00:04:10,160
Speaker 1: Elfresco dining fees going up. I actually think we should

92
00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:12,839
Speaker 1: be just trying to get people into the city, get

93
00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:15,680
Speaker 1: people using those Elfresco dining areas. But I know that

94
00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:18,799
Speaker 1: this is all open to, you know, to people actually

95
00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:19,960
Speaker 1: putting forward their submissions.

96
00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:22,839
Speaker 3: At this point, you just said you don't agree with

97
00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:25,080
Speaker 3: our freshcrow fear has been put up. Let me tell

98
00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:27,480
Speaker 3: you that our freshco fee has come down fifty percent.

99
00:04:27,560 --> 00:04:30,359
Speaker 1: Yeah, I understand, I get all that we spoke about it.

100
00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:34,359
Speaker 3: Last thing is a table a dollar a day In

101
00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:36,480
Speaker 3: a table you can put four people, that's twenty five

102
00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:37,200
Speaker 3: cents of person.

103
00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:39,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, But if you're talking about a small business that

104
00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:41,680
Speaker 1: maybe has a few tables, it's obviously going to have

105
00:04:41,720 --> 00:04:43,800
Speaker 1: an impact on them over the course of the year.

106
00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:45,560
Speaker 1: I understand why you guys are doing it, and I

107
00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:47,760
Speaker 1: understand all the things that you told us last week.

108
00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:50,560
Speaker 1: But for them, for those businesses, they might be going

109
00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:53,360
Speaker 1: through a good time at the moment, but we don't

110
00:04:53,360 --> 00:04:54,880
Speaker 1: know what's going to happen in the web season, and

111
00:04:54,920 --> 00:04:57,080
Speaker 1: I just think it's a weird time to be putting

112
00:04:57,120 --> 00:04:57,800
Speaker 1: up these faces.

113
00:04:58,040 --> 00:05:01,000
Speaker 3: Somebody point out people actually prepared to pay the landlord

114
00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:06,560
Speaker 3: a rent to hire a property. What people doing now

115
00:05:06,640 --> 00:05:09,440
Speaker 3: is actually paying a fee to hire a public property

116
00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:10,760
Speaker 3: from the council.

117
00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:13,479
Speaker 1: It belongs to a sign council that says that I

118
00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:14,279
Speaker 1: want to activate.

119
00:05:15,080 --> 00:05:18,200
Speaker 2: It happens everywhere, and the cost is so minimal.

120
00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:20,800
Speaker 3: And not only that, but the cost actually tutroductible because

121
00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:23,880
Speaker 3: it's actually running business. So in reality, if you if

122
00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:26,000
Speaker 3: you think how much people will be paying, not to

123
00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:28,120
Speaker 3: mention of course they never pay because they passity to

124
00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:29,840
Speaker 3: you and to me. Every time I get a coffee,

125
00:05:29,960 --> 00:05:31,800
Speaker 3: my cost probably will go about twenty says up to

126
00:05:31,839 --> 00:05:32,480
Speaker 3: cover the cost.

127
00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:34,039
Speaker 2: And I can understand that one.

128
00:05:34,080 --> 00:05:37,120
Speaker 3: So you pay to hire a public place that belongs

129
00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:38,760
Speaker 3: to the public, not to the council. It belongs to

130
00:05:38,760 --> 00:05:40,880
Speaker 3: the public, and we collect this money on behalf of

131
00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:43,520
Speaker 3: the public. And that's why rage can be kept to

132
00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:45,560
Speaker 3: two point fiber tendency insteads two point six.

133
00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:45,960
Speaker 2: Or two points.

134
00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:48,039
Speaker 1: Well, look, I guess you and I could talk to

135
00:05:48,080 --> 00:05:50,359
Speaker 1: we're blue in the face about the old Fresco dining fees.

136
00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:52,400
Speaker 1: But at the end of the day, you don't think

137
00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:54,599
Speaker 1: that this is a good idea. This uh, this you know,

138
00:05:54,800 --> 00:05:57,240
Speaker 1: reintroduction of it of a different voucher scale.

139
00:05:58,080 --> 00:05:59,600
Speaker 2: The market is prepared.

140
00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:02,120
Speaker 3: To put anything they want the council to be debated,

141
00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:05,240
Speaker 3: to be discussed, and the other twelve oldermen will make

142
00:06:05,279 --> 00:06:07,360
Speaker 3: a decision of that one. But again, as the year before,

143
00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:10,000
Speaker 3: why only the Alfresco, Why we stop there? We don't

144
00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:14,200
Speaker 3: go to the bookshops, the placers will sell clothes, the participlaces,

145
00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:16,880
Speaker 3: we're actually selling shoes because they're not doing as well

146
00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:18,400
Speaker 3: as the hospitality does.

147
00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:20,360
Speaker 1: SoCon Is it just a matter of you know, like

148
00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:22,719
Speaker 1: the businesses do just need to suck it up, just

149
00:06:22,760 --> 00:06:25,000
Speaker 1: sort of go well, you know, look, give you've got

150
00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:27,360
Speaker 1: to accept that sometimes these face have to go up.

151
00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:30,400
Speaker 3: Well, the same business complained here about Alfresco. They're prepared

152
00:06:30,440 --> 00:06:34,080
Speaker 3: to pay a per square meter rate in the waterfront

153
00:06:34,360 --> 00:06:36,839
Speaker 3: because when they actually rent a property in the waterfront,

154
00:06:37,160 --> 00:06:40,919
Speaker 3: they rent the whole package, both inside and outside.

155
00:06:41,120 --> 00:06:42,040
Speaker 2: So and in.

156
00:06:41,960 --> 00:06:44,719
Speaker 3: Some cases the cost to rent properties in the waterfront's

157
00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:47,320
Speaker 3: much much higher that one they pay here for Al Fresco.

158
00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:50,640
Speaker 1: It's going to be bugger all in terms of revenue

159
00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:52,600
Speaker 1: rising though for you guys, isn't well.

160
00:06:52,640 --> 00:06:55,799
Speaker 3: The thing again is that money that we actually forgive

161
00:06:55,880 --> 00:06:58,240
Speaker 3: to may have to come from somewhere else. And the

162
00:06:58,320 --> 00:07:01,040
Speaker 3: council budget, as to you before, it has to be balanced.

163
00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:03,640
Speaker 2: We can't go into deficit. That's what the law requires.

164
00:07:04,040 --> 00:07:06,080
Speaker 3: So if we actually take money from one place, we

165
00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:09,200
Speaker 3: have to get from somewhere else. The voucher the money

166
00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:11,720
Speaker 3: came from a parking levee, so we had to take

167
00:07:11,760 --> 00:07:14,320
Speaker 3: money out of the parking levee. At the time we

168
00:07:14,400 --> 00:07:17,640
Speaker 3: had also forgiven the parking fees.

169
00:07:17,880 --> 00:07:20,640
Speaker 1: It does sound like the council has really made up

170
00:07:20,680 --> 00:07:23,880
Speaker 1: its mind on these El Fresco dining fees. Though you know,

171
00:07:23,920 --> 00:07:25,880
Speaker 1: I know that you've said that. You still people can

172
00:07:25,920 --> 00:07:28,000
Speaker 1: still give that feedback, but it sounds like you've made

173
00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:29,320
Speaker 1: up your mind like it's going up.

174
00:07:29,520 --> 00:07:32,400
Speaker 3: Well, answer to you before, again, the council has a budget,

175
00:07:32,760 --> 00:07:35,960
Speaker 3: we allocated it might of different areas. If I take money,

176
00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:38,000
Speaker 3: even a thousand dollars somewhere, I have to take it

177
00:07:38,040 --> 00:07:41,680
Speaker 3: from somewhere else. And again I said to you has

178
00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:43,960
Speaker 3: pointed out quite rightly the other day on the radio,

179
00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:46,960
Speaker 3: why only the hospitality industry about the rest of the

180
00:07:46,960 --> 00:07:50,360
Speaker 3: industry in the territory that's not doing as well as

181
00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:52,640
Speaker 3: the hospitality industry. And I think that's a valid argument.

182
00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:55,760
Speaker 1: Council. Is there another meeting tonight.

183
00:07:55,720 --> 00:07:59,040
Speaker 3: Yes, there is a number of issues. Well, renaming the

184
00:07:59,120 --> 00:08:02,760
Speaker 3: Chinatown cup pack. We had consultations with the people from them.

185
00:08:03,160 --> 00:08:06,120
Speaker 3: The I said, well, guys, why we call it Chinatown?

186
00:08:06,280 --> 00:08:07,960
Speaker 3: He says, well, we don't know. It was an original

187
00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:10,120
Speaker 3: idea from the original proponents here has nothing to do

188
00:08:10,160 --> 00:08:13,720
Speaker 3: with Chinatown. Chinatown was in Kavanagh Street, not in Smith Street.

189
00:08:14,080 --> 00:08:16,440
Speaker 3: Namely what you like it. So the proposal is actually

190
00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:20,560
Speaker 3: to call it the Dragonfly car pack, which the symbol

191
00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:23,120
Speaker 3: of the city of Darwin. We're talking about the Natal

192
00:08:23,160 --> 00:08:27,080
Speaker 3: Places temporary closure. The owner of Monsoon they ask us,

193
00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:29,920
Speaker 3: because of a lot of people going through, they want

194
00:08:29,960 --> 00:08:33,560
Speaker 3: to put some ballarts temporarily from Thursday to Sunday between

195
00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:37,319
Speaker 3: eight pm and four am, just for security of people

196
00:08:37,400 --> 00:08:38,360
Speaker 3: quelling to.

197
00:08:38,480 --> 00:08:42,119
Speaker 2: Scan the you know, the Q code where they get.

198
00:08:42,720 --> 00:08:43,439
Speaker 2: It's a good idea.

199
00:08:43,480 --> 00:08:45,760
Speaker 3: We had a couple of property owners says oh no,

200
00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:47,320
Speaker 3: it's going to be permanent, and I said, no, no,

201
00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:49,480
Speaker 3: it's going to be temporarily. Oh no, we don't like

202
00:08:49,520 --> 00:08:53,920
Speaker 3: it matter effect our future future development. It's not going

203
00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:58,040
Speaker 3: to affect it's development. It's eight pm to four am

204
00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:01,199
Speaker 3: theresday to Sunday public safety.

205
00:09:01,320 --> 00:09:02,319
Speaker 2: I mean, it's not the bigause.

206
00:09:02,440 --> 00:09:04,240
Speaker 1: And I reckon so long as it is just between

207
00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:06,480
Speaker 1: those days and those times, it'll be fine. You know

208
00:09:06,640 --> 00:09:08,480
Speaker 1: a lot of people do use it throughout the day,

209
00:09:08,600 --> 00:09:11,040
Speaker 1: but it is about that patron safety. And I think

210
00:09:11,040 --> 00:09:12,880
Speaker 1: that you're talking about people who in a lot of

211
00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:15,240
Speaker 1: cases have been drinking as well. You've got to make

212
00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:16,600
Speaker 1: sure that the people are saying.

213
00:09:16,840 --> 00:09:19,720
Speaker 2: Ruth Palmer's jumping up and down. Ruth usually does that.

214
00:09:19,880 --> 00:09:22,920
Speaker 3: One obviously does like it because he reckons that we

215
00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:24,200
Speaker 3: are against property owners.

216
00:09:24,200 --> 00:09:26,800
Speaker 2: I mean, Ruth, come down, it's for public shelf.

217
00:09:26,880 --> 00:09:29,040
Speaker 1: We will give Ruth the opportunity to respond to that,

218
00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:29,520
Speaker 1: because it's.

219
00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:31,559
Speaker 3: The first time me and Ruth getting along really well.

220
00:09:31,600 --> 00:09:33,400
Speaker 3: But we have our argument because he represents a good

221
00:09:34,120 --> 00:09:34,880
Speaker 3: that council.

222
00:09:34,720 --> 00:09:37,840
Speaker 1: Absolutely anyway, regardless of what she said, why do you

223
00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:39,480
Speaker 1: think it's a good idea that this closes?

224
00:09:39,720 --> 00:09:43,080
Speaker 3: Because if I save a person's life from injury or

225
00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:45,400
Speaker 3: death because something can go wrong.

226
00:09:45,880 --> 00:09:47,680
Speaker 1: I think it's a good idea, and so tonight it

227
00:09:47,679 --> 00:09:49,000
Speaker 1: will go to a vote.

228
00:09:48,679 --> 00:09:50,920
Speaker 2: It goes through what tonight to discuss about it, and.

229
00:09:50,920 --> 00:09:52,880
Speaker 1: So between the hours of just tell us again the

230
00:09:52,880 --> 00:09:54,360
Speaker 1: hour eight pm.

231
00:09:53,960 --> 00:09:56,960
Speaker 2: And four am Thursday to Sunday.

232
00:09:57,240 --> 00:09:58,719
Speaker 1: Yeah, look, I don't have an issue with it. I

233
00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:01,320
Speaker 1: think if we can keep people safe between those hours.

234
00:10:01,640 --> 00:10:05,000
Speaker 1: It's been a long time since I've frequented any any

235
00:10:05,120 --> 00:10:05,920
Speaker 1: venue at that time.

236
00:10:06,280 --> 00:10:08,920
Speaker 3: You kids, kady As, you probably know you don't go

237
00:10:09,040 --> 00:10:11,000
Speaker 3: to this kind of place at that time.

238
00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:13,319
Speaker 2: Where are you going, ma'am?

239
00:10:13,920 --> 00:10:15,840
Speaker 3: The other thing, of course, tonight we're discussing in a

240
00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:19,200
Speaker 3: proposal to have a new friends reach friendly city with

241
00:10:19,360 --> 00:10:22,240
Speaker 3: den Pasa. We're approached by them Passa, which is really

242
00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:25,480
Speaker 3: interesting because the lord, the mayor of proposed to me

243
00:10:25,559 --> 00:10:28,240
Speaker 3: that the den Persa city is prepared to pay the

244
00:10:28,360 --> 00:10:32,120
Speaker 3: quarantine expenses for workers to come from Bali to Darwin

245
00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:33,640
Speaker 3: because they're really desperate.

246
00:10:33,920 --> 00:10:35,720
Speaker 1: Right there is the proposals.

247
00:10:36,240 --> 00:10:37,880
Speaker 3: I need to discover that with the government, because of

248
00:10:37,920 --> 00:10:39,880
Speaker 3: course there has to be space to quarantine.

249
00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:41,920
Speaker 1: Them in what type of in what type of jobs

250
00:10:41,960 --> 00:10:45,880
Speaker 1: are we talking about hospitality, right, so that put for this.

251
00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:48,760
Speaker 3: They want to do that one. That's the momentary informal proposal.

252
00:10:48,800 --> 00:10:50,440
Speaker 3: We have to do a lot of work to find

253
00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:52,800
Speaker 3: out if we can do it. Who wants these workers,

254
00:10:52,800 --> 00:10:54,360
Speaker 3: how are they're going to pay them? Where are we

255
00:10:54,480 --> 00:10:56,880
Speaker 3: going to quarantine them? But then that shows you have

256
00:10:57,000 --> 00:11:00,760
Speaker 3: desperate the industry in Bali is and course nobody goes

257
00:11:00,800 --> 00:11:01,800
Speaker 3: there anymore.

258
00:11:01,480 --> 00:11:02,440
Speaker 2: And can't go there anymore.

259
00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:04,840
Speaker 1: So who's that informal proposal come from?

260
00:11:04,880 --> 00:11:06,600
Speaker 2: The mayor of them persides?

261
00:11:06,640 --> 00:11:09,040
Speaker 1: Well, yeah, they'd be doing it tough, there's no doubt.

262
00:11:09,040 --> 00:11:10,640
Speaker 1: And we've got to work a shortage. So you sort

263
00:11:10,679 --> 00:11:12,320
Speaker 1: of think if there's one that we can marry these

264
00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:12,839
Speaker 1: things up.

265
00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:17,320
Speaker 3: You have to take the public safety to consideration. If

266
00:11:17,320 --> 00:11:19,120
Speaker 3: they're going to come, they have to be quarantined. At

267
00:11:19,160 --> 00:11:21,280
Speaker 3: the moment, I think we're struggling with the impacts. We've

268
00:11:21,280 --> 00:11:23,640
Speaker 3: got too many people come from India yesterday to another

269
00:11:23,679 --> 00:11:27,120
Speaker 3: airplane from Turkey, so we've got a problem.

270
00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:29,040
Speaker 1: The other problem I can point back on the agenda.

271
00:11:29,040 --> 00:11:30,839
Speaker 1: I know it's for quite some times.

272
00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:32,640
Speaker 3: But I believe that there are actually the defense heav

273
00:11:32,640 --> 00:11:34,400
Speaker 3: We had the moment and then of course, some people

274
00:11:34,800 --> 00:11:37,320
Speaker 3: are working for impacts, so we have to find out

275
00:11:37,320 --> 00:11:38,880
Speaker 3: whether it's going to be empty.

276
00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:42,160
Speaker 2: The other thing, of course, we've got is the.

277
00:11:41,520 --> 00:11:44,800
Speaker 3: People not taking up vaccination, and that really concerns me.

278
00:11:44,920 --> 00:11:47,240
Speaker 3: And the one that conserves is a lot is the

279
00:11:47,320 --> 00:11:49,719
Speaker 3: added vaxers have managed to find their way into the

280
00:11:49,760 --> 00:11:53,120
Speaker 3: digitous communities. They have talked a lot of FIBs to

281
00:11:53,200 --> 00:11:56,880
Speaker 3: the digitous people, scare the settlers and people in the

282
00:11:57,240 --> 00:11:58,720
Speaker 3: communites don't do the vaccine anymore.

283
00:11:59,320 --> 00:12:00,839
Speaker 2: Some of them they said, it's a white.

284
00:12:00,600 --> 00:12:04,760
Speaker 3: Man's disease going to affect us the problem if it comes.

285
00:12:04,440 --> 00:12:07,959
Speaker 2: If by any chance hopefully not comes in our community.

286
00:12:08,280 --> 00:12:10,319
Speaker 3: The ones we're really going to copy big time are

287
00:12:10,400 --> 00:12:13,920
Speaker 3: people from indigenous communities because they're the ones where the commobilities.

288
00:12:14,360 --> 00:12:17,000
Speaker 3: I had Indigenous mayors pleading with me to talk to

289
00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:20,280
Speaker 3: the health department, which I have. I've had people Indigenous

290
00:12:20,280 --> 00:12:22,240
Speaker 3: people telling me they're really, really worried, which I have.

291
00:12:22,559 --> 00:12:24,360
Speaker 3: But I had people hear and down telling me they're

292
00:12:24,360 --> 00:12:27,560
Speaker 3: really worried if something goes wrong. And my answer is,

293
00:12:28,040 --> 00:12:30,560
Speaker 3: you're offered a vaccine, why you don't do it?

294
00:12:30,679 --> 00:12:33,079
Speaker 1: I asked Michael Ganna last week with we just need

295
00:12:33,120 --> 00:12:35,800
Speaker 1: to make the vaccine open to everybody over the age

296
00:12:35,840 --> 00:12:38,160
Speaker 1: of sixteen in the Northern Territory right now. Rather than

297
00:12:38,200 --> 00:12:40,440
Speaker 1: doing it in these tiers, let's just get everyone done.

298
00:12:40,480 --> 00:12:42,840
Speaker 3: They started in another Springs, but it needs to be expanded.

299
00:12:42,960 --> 00:12:45,240
Speaker 3: The problem we've got is we have to counteract this

300
00:12:46,160 --> 00:12:49,320
Speaker 3: untruth by the anti vaxers. They re are, oh they're

301
00:12:49,320 --> 00:12:54,000
Speaker 3: getting throng bosses. Well, twenty four people in two and

302
00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:57,320
Speaker 3: a half million is about one tenth of what women

303
00:12:57,440 --> 00:13:00,560
Speaker 3: get that take contraceptive pills. Yeah, and nobody mentioned that,

304
00:13:00,760 --> 00:13:03,040
Speaker 3: but everybody measure what the vaccine Court is.

305
00:13:03,160 --> 00:13:06,199
Speaker 1: Lord Mayor Convat Scarla's always good to chat with you,

306
00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:08,640
Speaker 1: spirited this morning as always. Thank you.

307
00:13:08,720 --> 00:13:11,520
Speaker 3: Sorry about that, but my public health background comes into

308
00:13:11,520 --> 00:13:12,000
Speaker 3: the surface.

309
00:13:12,240 --> 00:13:14,520
Speaker 1: Good on you, con thank you. That's the Lord Mayor

310
00:13:14,559 --> 00:13:16,480
Speaker 1: of Darwin, Convat Scarlas on Mix
