Now, look, I do just want to give 16 00:00:37,720 --> 00:00:40,920 Speaker 1: a quick police update. The Northern Territory Police say that 17 00:00:41,040 --> 00:00:44,240 Speaker 1: they are calling for public assistance to locate a fifty 18 00:00:44,280 --> 00:00:48,080 Speaker 1: two year old prisoner, mister Clinton Daylight, who was last 19 00:00:48,120 --> 00:00:52,120 Speaker 1: seen at the Darwen Bus interchange yesterday four point thirty 20 00:00:52,200 --> 00:00:54,840 Speaker 1: in the afternoon the Darwen Bus Exchange. Now, he was 21 00:00:54,960 --> 00:00:59,080 Speaker 1: mistakenly released by the Department of Corrections earlier in the 22 00:00:59,160 --> 00:01:02,520 Speaker 1: day and the incident was reported to the police yesterday afternoon. 23 00:01:02,880 --> 00:01:07,000 Speaker 1: Now police are looking for Clinton, and he is urged 24 00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:10,640 Speaker 1: to return himself into custody as soon as possible.

Now, look, 29 00:01:23,040 --> 00:01:25,200 Speaker 1: there's a lot to cover off this morning. There always 30 00:01:25,280 --> 00:01:26,840 Speaker 1: is on the week that was. But I do want 31 00:01:26,880 --> 00:01:28,600 Speaker 1: to talk about the Tafe bungle. 32 00:01:29,040 --> 00:01:29,320 Speaker 2: Now. 33 00:01:29,520 --> 00:01:31,760 Speaker 1: This has been a story that's been rumbling along for 34 00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:35,360 Speaker 1: the last week or two. We spoke last week to 35 00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:39,199 Speaker 1: Michael Hamilton from the TAFE and a couple of days 36 00:01:39,280 --> 00:01:42,360 Speaker 1: later he then stood down from his position. We've got 37 00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:45,600 Speaker 1: a situation now, according to the paper where Alice Springs 38 00:01:45,760 --> 00:01:49,680 Speaker 1: MLA Robin Lamley is calling for a federal inquiry into 39 00:01:49,800 --> 00:01:55,960 Speaker 1: Charles Darwin University after further claims emerged around failed apprenticeship certifications. 40 00:01:56,360 --> 00:01:59,559 Speaker 1: She spoke with the NT News after CDU TAFE chief 41 00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:03,080 Speaker 1: executive Mike Hamilton, as I just said, resigned from his 42 00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:07,040 Speaker 1: post after these revelations that more than one hundred carpentry 43 00:02:07,080 --> 00:02:10,720 Speaker 1: apprentices had been told that they weren't qualified because of 44 00:02:10,760 --> 00:02:12,760 Speaker 1: certification bungles by the tape. 45 00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:16,480 Speaker 2: Now, however, you look at this. It's a bit of 46 00:02:16,480 --> 00:02:17,720 Speaker 2: a shit show, you. 47 00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:22,280 Speaker 1: Know, to have these apprentices going through the tape thinking 48 00:02:22,280 --> 00:02:24,840 Speaker 1: they're getting their quals and then you're finding out you've 49 00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:25,560 Speaker 1: got to go back. 50 00:02:26,240 --> 00:02:26,440 Speaker 2: You know. 51 00:02:26,480 --> 00:02:31,360 Speaker 1: We then had I believe yesterday somebody from the university saying, 52 00:02:31,360 --> 00:02:33,480 Speaker 1: you know that they wouldn't have to pay to go 53 00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:36,799 Speaker 1: back and complete those qualifications. Well, you should almost be 54 00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:40,720 Speaker 1: getting bloody reimbursed for your whole qualification. It's pretty embarrassing 55 00:02:40,919 --> 00:02:43,799 Speaker 1: and not good at all for the university. 56 00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:44,600 Speaker 2: Minister. 57 00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:49,800 Speaker 1: I meant you have indeed got international education as. 58 00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:50,799 Speaker 2: Part of your portfolio. 59 00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:53,480 Speaker 1: That probably doesn't take in so much the tape, but 60 00:02:53,600 --> 00:02:55,079 Speaker 1: however you look at it, you want to make sure 61 00:02:55,080 --> 00:02:58,040 Speaker 1: that people are actually getting their adequate qualifications and able 62 00:02:58,080 --> 00:02:59,000 Speaker 1: to get in the workforce. 63 00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:04,320 Speaker 3: Absolutely, Katie, and I guess the real struggle is it's impossible. 64 00:03:04,320 --> 00:03:08,160 Speaker 3: I'm really struggling to understand how this could happen. Education, 65 00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:10,720 Speaker 3: like health, which I've got a lot of experience in, 66 00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:11,079 Speaker 3: is a. 67 00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:12,480 Speaker 5: Highly regulated area. 68 00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:15,920 Speaker 3: You get accredited for courses, you have external parties come in, 69 00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:18,680 Speaker 3: they check what you're doing, they make sure everything's okay. 70 00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:22,360 Speaker 3: So it just seems every day there's something new coming 71 00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:25,760 Speaker 3: out of this absolute mess that's been created, and it 72 00:03:25,880 --> 00:03:29,120 Speaker 3: justifies logic and I think my colleague, the Minister for 73 00:03:29,320 --> 00:03:32,080 Speaker 3: Education and Training, made it very clear it's not good enough. 74 00:03:32,440 --> 00:03:36,560 Speaker 5: There has to be responsibility and accountability. And you're absolutely right. 75 00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:40,960 Speaker 3: These people who've done their qualifications, done their courses, have 76 00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:44,040 Speaker 3: been out there in the workforce doing their thing that 77 00:03:44,160 --> 00:03:46,800 Speaker 3: they now get contacted to say, oh, sorry, by the way, 78 00:03:46,840 --> 00:03:47,960 Speaker 3: we didn't do X y Z. 79 00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:52,400 Speaker 1: It's really unacceptable, It's totally unacceptable. Well, Kathleen, you interviewed 80 00:03:52,440 --> 00:03:55,560 Speaker 1: the Minister Joe Hersey yesterday. Will play that interview after 81 00:03:55,600 --> 00:03:59,040 Speaker 1: ten o'clock this morning. But very firm on this, like 82 00:03:59,120 --> 00:04:00,800 Speaker 1: she thinks this is a bit of a debarcle. 83 00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:04,160 Speaker 6: Oh beyond a debarcle. Yeah, there's certainly, as you said, 84 00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:06,640 Speaker 6: it's a far stronger word than it has. I mean, 85 00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:09,560 Speaker 6: she revealed that there is an internal audit going on 86 00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:12,200 Speaker 6: and she's demanded to see that once that's completed, and 87 00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:17,320 Speaker 6: will be definitely directing through the department as to overseeing 88 00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:19,159 Speaker 6: any kind of fixtures that they need to. 89 00:04:19,160 --> 00:04:19,960 Speaker 2: Put in place for this. 90 00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:23,120 Speaker 6: But as we spoke about yesterday, this will reflect on 91 00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:25,479 Speaker 6: the entire institution. I mean, if you're looking at coming 92 00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:29,120 Speaker 6: to Charles Dalen University for any kind of course and 93 00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:31,919 Speaker 6: you see this come up, you'd have to question what's 94 00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:33,919 Speaker 6: happening with the rest of the courses, which is terrible 95 00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:36,920 Speaker 6: for the rest of the people that's delivering the education there. 96 00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:37,919 Speaker 2: Chancey. 97 00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:40,320 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know where they go from here. 98 00:04:40,400 --> 00:04:43,920 Speaker 1: I don't know whether the standing down of Michael Hamilton's enough. 99 00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:45,160 Speaker 2: What's your take on it all? 100 00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:48,039 Speaker 7: Well, look, I think that CD you need to probably 101 00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:50,240 Speaker 7: do the same thing that the member for Fong Limb 102 00:04:50,279 --> 00:04:52,080 Speaker 7: needs to do, and that step up and face the 103 00:04:52,200 --> 00:04:55,320 Speaker 7: music and be honest with territorians, tell us what actually 104 00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:58,080 Speaker 7: has happened, and tell us how it's happened, and how 105 00:04:58,080 --> 00:05:00,760 Speaker 7: are you going to fix it? That's ultimately what we 106 00:05:00,839 --> 00:05:03,479 Speaker 7: need to know. And there's a question here that we're 107 00:05:03,920 --> 00:05:07,320 Speaker 7: not really touched on. And everyone who's had work done 108 00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:11,600 Speaker 7: by one of these tradees that then wasn't covered, is 109 00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:15,520 Speaker 7: that still covered for insurance purposes and liability purposes or 110 00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:19,320 Speaker 7: is that work invalid? Because we need to understand that. 111 00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:22,240 Speaker 7: And I mean, let's be clear, like you know, these 112 00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:25,440 Speaker 7: men and women have gone through done their trade, got 113 00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:29,880 Speaker 7: their certificates, completed what they thought was their apprenticeship. They've 114 00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:32,760 Speaker 7: been out in the workforce doing the right thing, and 115 00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:36,479 Speaker 7: now they're being inconvenienced. They're being dragged back to Darwin 116 00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:40,599 Speaker 7: from wherever they are across the country, taking to having 117 00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:43,960 Speaker 7: to take leave from their jobs, having to take time 118 00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:45,920 Speaker 7: away from their families to do this. 119 00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:47,320 Speaker 4: So I think it is important. 120 00:05:47,440 --> 00:05:50,840 Speaker 7: I think where we go forward here needs to be 121 00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:52,960 Speaker 7: a clear, concise, concerted effort. 122 00:05:53,040 --> 00:05:55,680 Speaker 4: Because CDU is the territories UNI. 123 00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:59,640 Speaker 7: We should all be incredibly proud of CDU and be 124 00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:01,719 Speaker 7: able to back it in every day. So I think 125 00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:04,560 Speaker 7: when it comes to the Tafe side where this issue 126 00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:08,120 Speaker 7: has happened, we absolutely need them to come forward and 127 00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:10,839 Speaker 7: tell us how was this done. You know, a woman 128 00:06:10,880 --> 00:06:13,479 Speaker 7: has spoken about being in health and she's been a 129 00:06:13,480 --> 00:06:14,360 Speaker 7: health administrator. 130 00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:15,200 Speaker 4: I think that's what you'd call it. 131 00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:16,120 Speaker 5: A robin close enough. 132 00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:21,039 Speaker 7: Yeah, and you know there's regulation you have to follow, 133 00:06:21,400 --> 00:06:23,520 Speaker 7: it's the law. So something's happened. 134 00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:26,760 Speaker 1: Do you reckon there's any potential here for some of 135 00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:29,320 Speaker 1: those businesses that have maybe been impacted, You know, if 136 00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:32,279 Speaker 1: they have indeed had an apprentice that now has to 137 00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:34,839 Speaker 1: go back and complete those calls that they might be 138 00:06:34,880 --> 00:06:37,880 Speaker 1: able to like, is there a case for compensation? 139 00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:39,680 Speaker 4: Do you think? 140 00:06:39,760 --> 00:06:43,120 Speaker 3: I think that CDU has a lot of questions that 141 00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:46,280 Speaker 3: they have to answer. The bottom line is yes, I'm 142 00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:49,320 Speaker 3: the Minister for International Education and that's not directly the 143 00:06:49,360 --> 00:06:53,159 Speaker 3: TAFE side of things, but I'm out there selling the university. Yeah, 144 00:06:53,240 --> 00:06:57,200 Speaker 3: and so it's cast concerns and doubts around everything, whether 145 00:06:57,400 --> 00:07:00,960 Speaker 3: the university wants to admit that or not. And I 146 00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:06,599 Speaker 3: think this is such a fundamental error that I think 147 00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:10,400 Speaker 3: that I don't believe that for the people who've had 148 00:07:10,440 --> 00:07:12,080 Speaker 3: work done, because you don't always have to get a 149 00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:14,120 Speaker 3: trade to do your work. You understand that, you know, 150 00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:15,520 Speaker 3: you can get your mate next door to do your 151 00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:19,240 Speaker 3: thing as long as things have been certified appropriately and 152 00:07:19,440 --> 00:07:21,960 Speaker 3: the you know, the electrics and all of that stuff 153 00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:26,760 Speaker 3: has been independently certified, which for homes and small projects 154 00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:30,160 Speaker 3: are I think people should be reassured that these people 155 00:07:30,240 --> 00:07:32,960 Speaker 3: have done the right thing. But it's such an inconvenience 156 00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:35,239 Speaker 3: for them, and it is it's going to cost them money, 157 00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:37,040 Speaker 3: whether they have to pay for the extra training or not, 158 00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:39,559 Speaker 3: which I understand CE to you has said they won't 159 00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:39,920 Speaker 3: have to do. 160 00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:43,480 Speaker 5: But as we've heard from Chancey. 161 00:07:43,520 --> 00:07:45,720 Speaker 3: They have to take time off work, they have to 162 00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:47,440 Speaker 3: make their way back to dah and they have to 163 00:07:47,440 --> 00:07:49,040 Speaker 3: do all it. There has to be a better way 164 00:07:49,080 --> 00:07:52,960 Speaker 3: to help them rectify the oversight that's been caused by 165 00:07:53,360 --> 00:07:53,800 Speaker 3: the universe. 166 00:07:53,840 --> 00:07:57,080 Speaker 1: At the very least, it's a massive inconvenience, So the 167 00:07:57,160 --> 00:07:59,600 Speaker 1: very most, you know, there's a lot more to it. 168 00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:03,080 Speaker 2: I think, Katie, oh, you'd be just how do you. 169 00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:05,880 Speaker 7: Their social and emotional wellbeing is like you're out on 170 00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:08,120 Speaker 7: the tools and then you get home that night and 171 00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:11,080 Speaker 7: you're being told to get you're a phone call. Hey, 172 00:08:11,240 --> 00:08:13,520 Speaker 7: you're actually not signed off anymore. 173 00:08:13,720 --> 00:08:14,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, but that's a thing. 174 00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:17,920 Speaker 6: The minister also revealed that she found out from a 175 00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:21,360 Speaker 6: third party. It wasn't an even CDU that informed the government, 176 00:08:21,360 --> 00:08:24,360 Speaker 6: which I think is real. That is a massive Look. 177 00:08:24,440 --> 00:08:28,160 Speaker 1: Somebody has literally just messaged through and said Katie, it's 178 00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:30,680 Speaker 1: going to be more like a thousand or more apprentices. 179 00:08:30,760 --> 00:08:33,120 Speaker 1: Now I don't know whether that number is correct or not, 180 00:08:33,400 --> 00:08:36,640 Speaker 1: and we'll certainly be following that up. But however you 181 00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:39,320 Speaker 1: look at this, it needs to be rectified. We know that, 182 00:08:39,440 --> 00:08:42,200 Speaker 1: of course, we have got different people in charge of 183 00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:46,640 Speaker 1: different faculty areas, Michael Hamilton was in charge of the tafe, 184 00:08:46,720 --> 00:08:48,840 Speaker 1: so looking after that stream of things. 185 00:08:48,880 --> 00:08:50,480 Speaker 2: But I would think that the board of. 186 00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:53,240 Speaker 1: Charles Darwen University as well is going to be taking 187 00:08:53,280 --> 00:08:56,120 Speaker 1: a really close look at this and asking a lot 188 00:08:56,120 --> 00:08:58,959 Speaker 1: of questions as to how on earth this has been 189 00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:01,920 Speaker 1: able to happen. And I think that you know, as 190 00:09:01,960 --> 00:09:05,480 Speaker 1: a mom of teenagers who aren't sure whether they want 191 00:09:05,480 --> 00:09:07,760 Speaker 1: to go to university, aren't sure whether they want to 192 00:09:07,800 --> 00:09:11,040 Speaker 1: do a trade, you know, you want to be to 193 00:09:11,040 --> 00:09:12,920 Speaker 1: the point that was made earlier this morning. You want 194 00:09:12,920 --> 00:09:15,240 Speaker 1: to be proud of that university and the tafe that is, 195 00:09:15,360 --> 00:09:17,280 Speaker 1: you know, that is part of that UNI. And you 196 00:09:17,360 --> 00:09:20,040 Speaker 1: want to be sure that if you're young, or you're 197 00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:22,680 Speaker 1: a little bit oldert whatever age you might be deciding 198 00:09:22,679 --> 00:09:24,600 Speaker 1: to go through the UNI, whether it's through a course 199 00:09:24,640 --> 00:09:27,920 Speaker 1: at the university or a tape course, that the qualifications 200 00:09:27,960 --> 00:09:30,600 Speaker 1: that you get are at the same standard as what 201 00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:33,720 Speaker 1: they would be in any other location around Australia. 202 00:09:33,800 --> 00:09:36,319 Speaker 7: And I think like the important thing is as well, 203 00:09:36,400 --> 00:09:38,840 Speaker 7: I think for all of us, you know, we're all Territorians, 204 00:09:38,960 --> 00:09:41,080 Speaker 7: we love the place and we know many people that 205 00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:43,240 Speaker 7: work there. So I think the best thing is for 206 00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:46,920 Speaker 7: the board to really just make that process. Come out, 207 00:09:47,040 --> 00:09:49,440 Speaker 7: talk to people, be honest, tell people what's happened. Tell 208 00:09:49,440 --> 00:09:51,280 Speaker 7: people how are you going to fix it? Because you know, 209 00:09:51,320 --> 00:09:54,040 Speaker 7: I know so many great people that work at CDU, 210 00:09:54,440 --> 00:09:57,120 Speaker 7: whether they're lecturers or administrators, they do a good job 211 00:09:57,160 --> 00:09:59,200 Speaker 7: and I can't imagine how they'd be feeling. 212 00:09:59,000 --> 00:09:59,440 Speaker 4: At the moment. 213 00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:03,280 Speaker 7: Will pretty also, you know, we need the board to 214 00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:07,240 Speaker 7: come out and you know, the Chancellor and just say hey, 215 00:10:07,679 --> 00:10:08,440 Speaker 7: this is what's happened. 216 00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:10,800 Speaker 4: I mean, they've got an incredible chancellor, Trevor Riley. 217 00:10:11,559 --> 00:10:15,840 Speaker 3: You know, just that's a bigger issue here than say 218 00:10:15,840 --> 00:10:19,240 Speaker 3: to you, and that's there are external bodies that have 219 00:10:19,360 --> 00:10:24,040 Speaker 3: come in and accredited these courses, so you have to 220 00:10:24,080 --> 00:10:26,679 Speaker 3: ask a question about what's happening in that space as well. 221 00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:27,920 Speaker 2: Yea, yeap, good point. 222 00:10:28,440 --> 00:10:31,719 Speaker 7: Accreditation in general, h we need some looking. I mean, 223 00:10:32,480 --> 00:10:35,320 Speaker 7: Robin makes the point and we don't always agree, but 224 00:10:35,640 --> 00:10:37,959 Speaker 7: we're laughing at times. But you know, like we've got 225 00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:39,760 Speaker 7: to make sure, particularly out Bush as well. You know, 226 00:10:39,840 --> 00:10:42,439 Speaker 7: like a lot of my family, they've got enough certificates 227 00:10:42,440 --> 00:10:45,760 Speaker 7: to wallpaper their houses, but have they actually been given 228 00:10:45,800 --> 00:10:49,360 Speaker 7: the appropriate skills in training to be able to get 229 00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:50,199 Speaker 7: meaningful employment. 230 00:10:50,559 --> 00:10:53,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's exactly right. Look, let's take a quick break. 231 00:10:53,080 --> 00:10:55,240 Speaker 1: There is a lot to discuss this morning. There always 232 00:10:55,360 --> 00:10:57,960 Speaker 1: is on the week. That was right here on three sixty. 233 00:10:58,520 --> 00:11:01,000 Speaker 1: If you are just join us, we'll in the studio 234 00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:04,800 Speaker 1: this morning. We've got Chancey Paige, Robin Karl and Kathleen Gazola. 235 00:11:04,920 --> 00:11:07,800 Speaker 1: Now it's been a busy week. Earlier in the week, 236 00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:11,360 Speaker 1: on Monday, we were discussing an ABC report. The Member 237 00:11:11,400 --> 00:11:14,960 Speaker 1: for fong Limb Tansel Rahman accused of bullying by two 238 00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:19,319 Speaker 1: female staffers in what's been described as a very serious matter. Now, 239 00:11:19,320 --> 00:11:22,040 Speaker 1: according to the report by Matt Garrick, he was the 240 00:11:22,080 --> 00:11:25,079 Speaker 1: chair of the Legal and Constitutional Affairs Committee, which was 241 00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:29,320 Speaker 1: leading consultations into the Northern Territory's voluntary assisted dying laws 242 00:11:29,640 --> 00:11:31,319 Speaker 1: when the formal complaints. 243 00:11:30,800 --> 00:11:34,079 Speaker 2: Were made late last year. The ABC has. 244 00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:38,560 Speaker 1: Confirmed through multiple sources that the allegations against Dr Rahman 245 00:11:38,800 --> 00:11:41,880 Speaker 1: were made by two staffers who'd been on the road 246 00:11:41,920 --> 00:11:46,000 Speaker 1: with the politician for the voluntary assisted dying consultations. Now, 247 00:11:46,040 --> 00:11:48,439 Speaker 1: the Chief Minister joined us on the show on Monday 248 00:11:48,760 --> 00:11:51,680 Speaker 1: and she said it is a hr matter. 249 00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:53,839 Speaker 2: We also spoke to Robin. 250 00:11:53,640 --> 00:11:56,480 Speaker 1: Lambley about this, who is indeed the Speaker of the House, 251 00:11:56,880 --> 00:12:00,400 Speaker 1: and spoke about that a little earlier in the world week, 252 00:12:01,240 --> 00:12:04,440 Speaker 1: I mean, Kathleen, she had said that obviously there've been 253 00:12:05,120 --> 00:12:10,319 Speaker 1: steps taken within the Legislative Assembly, however, you know, sort 254 00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:13,560 Speaker 1: of stepping aside. Had also said that, you know, an 255 00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:17,400 Speaker 1: apology in this situation would be a good thing to do. 256 00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:18,160 Speaker 5: Well, that's right. 257 00:12:18,200 --> 00:12:21,160 Speaker 6: I mean, claims have been made because someone feels like 258 00:12:21,200 --> 00:12:24,040 Speaker 6: they have copped it unfairly, and so when you've done 259 00:12:24,040 --> 00:12:27,720 Speaker 6: something wrong, you front up and apologize. And continued silence 260 00:12:27,760 --> 00:12:31,440 Speaker 6: from Tansor, Rahman suggests basically that he doesn't feel like 261 00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:32,480 Speaker 6: like he's done anything wrong. 262 00:12:32,600 --> 00:12:34,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't understand the not coming out and sort 263 00:12:34,880 --> 00:12:38,640 Speaker 1: of just speaking and saying, you know, if I've offended somebody, 264 00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:40,920 Speaker 1: or if somebody feels as though I've treated them in 265 00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:45,319 Speaker 1: a poor manner, then I apologize or you know, I 266 00:12:45,720 --> 00:12:48,120 Speaker 1: did do the wrong thing and I've you know, and 267 00:12:48,160 --> 00:12:51,160 Speaker 1: I apologize for that. And I mean, to me, the 268 00:12:51,240 --> 00:12:53,880 Speaker 1: fact that even though the Chief Minister has said this 269 00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:57,720 Speaker 1: is a hr matter, but he's also been sidelined from 270 00:12:58,400 --> 00:12:59,160 Speaker 1: that committee. 271 00:12:59,160 --> 00:13:01,360 Speaker 2: Now he's sort of been you know, if you look 272 00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:01,640 Speaker 2: at her. 273 00:13:01,720 --> 00:13:05,719 Speaker 1: She's been pushed away from being the chair of that committee. 274 00:13:06,080 --> 00:13:08,640 Speaker 1: As I understand Laurie Zeo is now in that role. 275 00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:11,760 Speaker 1: That would suggest to me that well, the Chief Minister 276 00:13:11,800 --> 00:13:14,160 Speaker 1: maybe wasn't overly happy with what had gone on or 277 00:13:14,160 --> 00:13:18,120 Speaker 1: the behavior and had decided to quietly. 278 00:13:17,720 --> 00:13:20,040 Speaker 2: Make that move. I mean, Robin, does he need to 279 00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:21,320 Speaker 2: come out and apologize here? 280 00:13:21,480 --> 00:13:24,400 Speaker 3: Look, I think as I know the Chief Ministers said, 281 00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:27,079 Speaker 3: really it isn't matter for the Member for Fong Limb. 282 00:13:27,120 --> 00:13:31,280 Speaker 3: I don't actually know appropriately any of the details of 283 00:13:31,360 --> 00:13:34,880 Speaker 3: what occurred, because well, the process is confidential in terms 284 00:13:34,880 --> 00:13:37,720 Speaker 3: of the committee. But hr matters are always handled that 285 00:13:37,800 --> 00:13:41,400 Speaker 3: way and quite rightly. And the Speaker has done what 286 00:13:41,520 --> 00:13:44,400 Speaker 3: she is in her role able to do as the 287 00:13:44,440 --> 00:13:49,120 Speaker 3: person responsible for their staff in that department, and she 288 00:13:49,480 --> 00:13:52,839 Speaker 3: has progressed it. There was an outcome, as I understand it, 289 00:13:52,960 --> 00:13:57,880 Speaker 3: that everybody has been agreed to. That's the detail that 290 00:13:57,960 --> 00:14:02,040 Speaker 3: I have. I think anything further than that, Really it 291 00:14:02,120 --> 00:14:03,960 Speaker 3: is a matter for the Member for fone Limb. 292 00:14:03,920 --> 00:14:06,000 Speaker 2: What is and we've reached out to him, We've tried 293 00:14:06,040 --> 00:14:06,920 Speaker 2: to get him on the show. 294 00:14:07,400 --> 00:14:10,160 Speaker 1: It's difficult then for it to be you know, to 295 00:14:10,320 --> 00:14:12,959 Speaker 1: sort of clear the air when you've got somebody who's 296 00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:15,600 Speaker 1: not prepared then to come out and speak publicly. Now, 297 00:14:15,920 --> 00:14:17,599 Speaker 1: all that I can see is going to happen is 298 00:14:17,640 --> 00:14:20,040 Speaker 1: it's going to end up an issue next time Parliament seats, 299 00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:23,000 Speaker 1: because if I was running Labour strategy, I'd be like, right, oh, 300 00:14:23,040 --> 00:14:24,720 Speaker 1: we're asking some questions about this. 301 00:14:24,960 --> 00:14:27,200 Speaker 4: Yeah, look Katie, I think absolutely. 302 00:14:27,240 --> 00:14:29,880 Speaker 7: I mean we've said already publicly that if the Member 303 00:14:29,960 --> 00:14:32,800 Speaker 7: for Fong Limb doesn't man upstep up and speak out 304 00:14:33,040 --> 00:14:36,680 Speaker 7: about what has happened, yes or no, are these allegations 305 00:14:36,880 --> 00:14:39,440 Speaker 7: true or are they false? I think we've said that 306 00:14:39,480 --> 00:14:42,280 Speaker 7: we'll consider what options we have on the floor of Parliament. 307 00:14:42,280 --> 00:14:46,400 Speaker 7: Whether it's referral to a committee like Privileges for an investigation, 308 00:14:46,840 --> 00:14:49,400 Speaker 7: then that needs to happen. Now the Chief Minister's come 309 00:14:49,400 --> 00:14:52,280 Speaker 7: out and she's you know, said it's cute, which completely 310 00:14:52,280 --> 00:14:58,000 Speaker 7: dismisses the seriousness of these allegations. This behavior was that's 311 00:14:58,040 --> 00:15:01,880 Speaker 7: been alleged is bullying. He's swearing, is using heated tones 312 00:15:01,920 --> 00:15:05,400 Speaker 7: and languages at hard working public servants is not acceptable. 313 00:15:06,200 --> 00:15:09,120 Speaker 7: Simple yes or no and an apology if it did 314 00:15:09,160 --> 00:15:12,360 Speaker 7: happen is what people want. When you don't confront something, 315 00:15:12,640 --> 00:15:17,040 Speaker 7: it grows in the avoid of silence, it is fuelled 316 00:15:17,520 --> 00:15:19,880 Speaker 7: with something else, and that's what's happening right now. I 317 00:15:19,920 --> 00:15:23,440 Speaker 7: don't particularly know the member for FONLIM very well, but 318 00:15:23,520 --> 00:15:26,400 Speaker 7: what I do know is that people of FONLM elected 319 00:15:26,520 --> 00:15:29,520 Speaker 7: him to serve and represent them, and they want to 320 00:15:29,560 --> 00:15:33,880 Speaker 7: know did he or didn't he make these comments or 321 00:15:33,880 --> 00:15:37,480 Speaker 7: this behavior. And you know, everyone can say there's been 322 00:15:37,520 --> 00:15:40,160 Speaker 7: a consequence. They've taken him off the chair of a committee, 323 00:15:40,160 --> 00:15:42,320 Speaker 7: put him on another committee. He's still earning an additional 324 00:15:42,360 --> 00:15:45,520 Speaker 7: ten thousand dollars and he's been given an assistant ministry. 325 00:15:45,960 --> 00:15:49,600 Speaker 7: That doesn't tell me that there is too much seriousness 326 00:15:49,720 --> 00:15:53,320 Speaker 7: around those allegations. So the easiest thing here is come 327 00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:56,560 Speaker 7: out and say yes or no, and offer an apology 328 00:15:56,600 --> 00:15:59,600 Speaker 7: if it is true, and let's all learn and walk 329 00:15:59,640 --> 00:16:00,280 Speaker 7: forward together. 330 00:16:00,480 --> 00:16:02,680 Speaker 6: And that's the point of what we've been making this 331 00:16:02,720 --> 00:16:04,680 Speaker 6: whole week that we've been talking about it. We've copped 332 00:16:04,680 --> 00:16:06,000 Speaker 6: at a fair bit on the text line. 333 00:16:06,080 --> 00:16:07,880 Speaker 2: People going to come on, we're talking about it. 334 00:16:07,880 --> 00:16:10,320 Speaker 6: It's a hr issue and they're entitled to their opinions. 335 00:16:10,360 --> 00:16:12,840 Speaker 6: But he is an elected official getting paid for by 336 00:16:12,880 --> 00:16:17,600 Speaker 6: the taxpayer to represent people and you know, based on 337 00:16:17,600 --> 00:16:19,160 Speaker 6: those claims, lately. 338 00:16:20,280 --> 00:16:21,440 Speaker 4: There's an HR process. 339 00:16:21,560 --> 00:16:24,000 Speaker 7: No one's saying that there isn't and no one's saying 340 00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:24,800 Speaker 7: that there shouldn't be. 341 00:16:25,160 --> 00:16:26,800 Speaker 4: I'm not asking what he said. 342 00:16:27,040 --> 00:16:30,080 Speaker 7: I'm asking did this happen to a public servile and 343 00:16:30,160 --> 00:16:31,160 Speaker 7: did you apologize? 344 00:16:31,240 --> 00:16:34,480 Speaker 1: Look, we did speak to the former Speaker of the 345 00:16:34,560 --> 00:16:37,600 Speaker 1: Legislative Assembly, Kezy Epiric a little bit earlier. The easy 346 00:16:37,720 --> 00:16:40,680 Speaker 1: now Kesey did also sort of say to us that 347 00:16:40,760 --> 00:16:43,880 Speaker 1: there's been different occasions where different allegations have been made 348 00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:47,160 Speaker 1: inside of Parliament House as well, and one of those 349 00:16:47,360 --> 00:16:49,960 Speaker 1: was several years ago when there was an allegation made 350 00:16:49,960 --> 00:16:53,400 Speaker 1: against Evil Laula in an elevator. Now Eva then came 351 00:16:53,400 --> 00:16:57,360 Speaker 1: out and apologized. There was another situation that involved Dave 352 00:16:57,400 --> 00:17:02,120 Speaker 1: Tolna many many years ago that he had used some 353 00:17:02,360 --> 00:17:06,120 Speaker 1: very derogatory language towards the staffer, and again he came 354 00:17:06,160 --> 00:17:08,080 Speaker 1: out and apologized and had to step down. 355 00:17:08,600 --> 00:17:09,560 Speaker 2: Yes, yep. 356 00:17:09,600 --> 00:17:12,640 Speaker 1: And then there was another situation in the car park 357 00:17:12,680 --> 00:17:15,920 Speaker 1: where Duran Young and Josh bergoin there were words exchanged 358 00:17:16,200 --> 00:17:17,280 Speaker 1: a couple of years back. 359 00:17:17,359 --> 00:17:20,080 Speaker 2: Again Duran had apologized so to me. 360 00:17:20,200 --> 00:17:23,399 Speaker 1: I feel as though a precedent has been set either 361 00:17:23,440 --> 00:17:26,000 Speaker 1: that or the member for formlim really needs to come 362 00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:27,960 Speaker 1: out and say, well, I didn't do anything wrong. 363 00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:31,800 Speaker 3: If that's the case, I think with thirty odd years 364 00:17:31,840 --> 00:17:34,679 Speaker 3: of managing teams and staff and stuff, one of the 365 00:17:34,760 --> 00:17:37,679 Speaker 3: challenges often in these spaces is the nature of whatever 366 00:17:37,720 --> 00:17:41,479 Speaker 3: the outcome of the investigation is and whatever the agreement is. 367 00:17:41,520 --> 00:17:44,639 Speaker 3: Often it's confidential and it actually bars people from speaking. Now, 368 00:17:44,680 --> 00:17:46,720 Speaker 3: I'm not saying that is or isn't the case in 369 00:17:46,760 --> 00:17:50,400 Speaker 3: this situation, and really the only person who could answer 370 00:17:50,440 --> 00:17:53,600 Speaker 3: that question would be either the speaker or the parties involved. 371 00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:59,600 Speaker 3: But again, the person who can answer the question and 372 00:17:59,640 --> 00:18:02,200 Speaker 3: make the decision really is the member for Fong Limb. 373 00:18:01,960 --> 00:18:04,959 Speaker 7: And he's going to have to, you know, stop hiding 374 00:18:05,000 --> 00:18:07,120 Speaker 7: and come out and face the music. I mean, as 375 00:18:07,560 --> 00:18:10,560 Speaker 7: Kathleen has said, Dave Toner had said something that was 376 00:18:10,600 --> 00:18:13,560 Speaker 7: in the CLP's party and that's when the CLP stood 377 00:18:13,640 --> 00:18:16,719 Speaker 7: up and actually delivered a hard blowing consequence. He had 378 00:18:16,760 --> 00:18:20,480 Speaker 7: to step down as the deputy of the party and 379 00:18:20,520 --> 00:18:22,360 Speaker 7: as the chief Minister and treasurer. 380 00:18:22,600 --> 00:18:24,119 Speaker 4: Like that was a direct consequence. 381 00:18:24,200 --> 00:18:26,159 Speaker 7: Right now, we don't even know if it's true or not, 382 00:18:26,240 --> 00:18:29,880 Speaker 7: because the fong limb is hiding and we just need 383 00:18:29,920 --> 00:18:30,240 Speaker 7: to know. 384 00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:31,639 Speaker 4: I don't want to know the details. 385 00:18:31,680 --> 00:18:33,040 Speaker 7: I don't think people out there want to know, but 386 00:18:33,080 --> 00:18:35,800 Speaker 7: they want to know that there is been an action 387 00:18:36,359 --> 00:18:38,760 Speaker 7: and that if it is true, offer an apology. 388 00:18:39,359 --> 00:18:39,600 Speaker 4: Well. 389 00:18:39,640 --> 00:18:41,800 Speaker 1: Look when the Chief Minister spoke to us on Monday, 390 00:18:41,880 --> 00:18:44,399 Speaker 1: she questioned the timing around this and said it's a 391 00:18:44,400 --> 00:18:47,480 Speaker 1: bit cute with the Nightcliff by election just around the corner. 392 00:18:47,720 --> 00:18:49,840 Speaker 1: I mean, on the Nightcliff by election, bit of a 393 00:18:49,840 --> 00:18:52,040 Speaker 1: pivot there. But on the Nightcliff by election, we know 394 00:18:52,119 --> 00:18:54,760 Speaker 1: that that race for the seat of Nightcliffe is. 395 00:18:54,720 --> 00:18:56,280 Speaker 2: Well and truly underway. 396 00:18:57,080 --> 00:18:59,400 Speaker 1: We have got a situation where we've got Labor running 397 00:18:59,560 --> 00:19:02,880 Speaker 1: Ed Smell, Suki Doris Walker is running for the Greens. 398 00:19:03,200 --> 00:19:05,879 Speaker 1: Phil Scott the Independent has announced that he's going to 399 00:19:05,880 --> 00:19:11,440 Speaker 1: put his hand up and the COLP announcing Angine Perdell. Now, 400 00:19:12,480 --> 00:19:16,320 Speaker 1: it is always interesting when a by election happens. I 401 00:19:16,359 --> 00:19:19,120 Speaker 1: mean there's always this suggestion that it's a litmus test 402 00:19:19,200 --> 00:19:22,200 Speaker 1: for you know, the leader of the CLP or the 403 00:19:22,280 --> 00:19:24,399 Speaker 1: leader of the Labor Party. If there's one thing I 404 00:19:24,440 --> 00:19:27,160 Speaker 1: know about Nightcliff, it is going to be a test 405 00:19:27,240 --> 00:19:29,639 Speaker 1: of what they see as being the major issues for 406 00:19:29,720 --> 00:19:33,080 Speaker 1: them in that electorate. And what we saw at the 407 00:19:33,160 --> 00:19:37,639 Speaker 1: last Northern Territory election is those preferences really come into place. 408 00:19:38,160 --> 00:19:40,080 Speaker 2: I mean, I'm a bit surprised. Usually in a by 409 00:19:40,119 --> 00:19:40,800 Speaker 2: election you have. 410 00:19:40,760 --> 00:19:42,920 Speaker 1: Every man and their dog decided to put their hand up, 411 00:19:43,160 --> 00:19:45,639 Speaker 1: but fortunately only four people this time around. 412 00:19:45,640 --> 00:19:46,440 Speaker 2: That's manageable. 413 00:19:46,600 --> 00:19:48,760 Speaker 3: I think the short time frame may have had something 414 00:19:48,840 --> 00:19:51,080 Speaker 3: to do with that. But look, I have to say 415 00:19:51,640 --> 00:19:55,760 Speaker 3: I've had the ability. I've met Angine before and I've 416 00:19:55,800 --> 00:19:58,000 Speaker 3: had some the opportunity to spend some time with him, 417 00:19:58,000 --> 00:20:01,480 Speaker 3: as have the team, and he's an incredible, impressive young 418 00:20:01,560 --> 00:20:05,080 Speaker 3: man and absolutely passionate about his community. 419 00:20:05,400 --> 00:20:08,440 Speaker 1: Unknown Robin, there was a few things I asked a 420 00:20:08,480 --> 00:20:10,480 Speaker 1: couple of questions so on the ABC and you could 421 00:20:10,480 --> 00:20:13,439 Speaker 1: see him looking for assistance in terms of how to 422 00:20:13,520 --> 00:20:15,760 Speaker 1: answer whether he was pro fracking or whether he I 423 00:20:15,800 --> 00:20:18,400 Speaker 1: think it was about middle arm or something. 424 00:20:18,440 --> 00:20:21,040 Speaker 6: Very easy questions in terms of acal people. 425 00:20:21,160 --> 00:20:24,000 Speaker 1: Look, we've definitely seen ministers need to look for assistance 426 00:20:24,320 --> 00:20:29,439 Speaker 1: on this show over the years. You neither of you 427 00:20:29,520 --> 00:20:33,120 Speaker 1: two struggle answering a question about that. 428 00:20:33,160 --> 00:20:35,280 Speaker 6: He's one of the outliers, though, I mean, the three 429 00:20:35,560 --> 00:20:39,879 Speaker 6: others are very well versed in kind of running an lecture. 430 00:20:39,960 --> 00:20:42,480 Speaker 3: And you know what, I think sometimes people want something 431 00:20:42,480 --> 00:20:46,240 Speaker 3: new and fresh and a new perspective is really important. 432 00:20:46,400 --> 00:20:49,320 Speaker 3: And certainly he's out on the doorstep. He's getting a 433 00:20:49,359 --> 00:20:52,760 Speaker 3: really good response, and he's working very very hard in 434 00:20:52,800 --> 00:20:56,760 Speaker 3: this very compact time, and the people have been for 435 00:20:56,840 --> 00:21:00,280 Speaker 3: looking for change, I think, and I think he's got 436 00:21:00,280 --> 00:21:00,880 Speaker 3: a very good chance. 437 00:21:01,080 --> 00:21:03,480 Speaker 1: And we will be fascinated to see what kind of 438 00:21:03,560 --> 00:21:06,439 Speaker 1: happens when it comes to preferences as well. And I 439 00:21:06,480 --> 00:21:09,160 Speaker 1: think that we're probably going to see a situation where 440 00:21:09,160 --> 00:21:13,080 Speaker 1: Phil Scott and Suki do preference each other. I don't 441 00:21:13,080 --> 00:21:15,679 Speaker 1: know how that's all going to play out then for 442 00:21:15,760 --> 00:21:18,200 Speaker 1: the two major parties, and I guess we'll wait and see. 443 00:21:18,200 --> 00:21:20,360 Speaker 1: But what I do know is that there are some 444 00:21:20,400 --> 00:21:23,360 Speaker 1: people within the Nightcliff electorate who are really very annoyed 445 00:21:23,400 --> 00:21:25,440 Speaker 1: about the fact that they're going to a by election, 446 00:21:26,200 --> 00:21:28,760 Speaker 1: rightly or wrongly, you know, they do feel as though 447 00:21:28,800 --> 00:21:32,560 Speaker 1: that's a ridiculous situation for them to be in. I 448 00:21:32,600 --> 00:21:34,440 Speaker 1: wonder whether there will be a bit of a protest 449 00:21:34,520 --> 00:21:37,800 Speaker 1: vote against the Greens as a result of that. The 450 00:21:37,840 --> 00:21:40,200 Speaker 1: other thing that keeps getting raised with me, which I 451 00:21:40,240 --> 00:21:43,359 Speaker 1: think is really important to bring up, is do all 452 00:21:43,480 --> 00:21:48,719 Speaker 1: four of the people running for Nightcliff actually live in Nightcliff. 453 00:21:49,359 --> 00:21:50,399 Speaker 2: I believe Ed does. 454 00:21:51,119 --> 00:21:52,440 Speaker 4: Ed lives in Nightcliff. 455 00:21:52,600 --> 00:21:55,439 Speaker 7: Ed's a local, very much connected to the community and 456 00:21:55,560 --> 00:21:57,080 Speaker 7: very much going to be a strong voice for the 457 00:21:57,080 --> 00:21:58,520 Speaker 7: people of Nightcliff. 458 00:21:59,080 --> 00:22:00,399 Speaker 4: Been out with Ed. 459 00:22:00,520 --> 00:22:03,600 Speaker 7: He's certainly well known, certainly works hard, and he's got 460 00:22:03,600 --> 00:22:07,560 Speaker 7: a track record of delivering in Nightcliff. So certainly really 461 00:22:07,600 --> 00:22:09,639 Speaker 7: really happy there had good reports. 462 00:22:10,240 --> 00:22:10,439 Speaker 4: You know. 463 00:22:10,520 --> 00:22:13,640 Speaker 7: I guess let's acknowledge here that every term of government 464 00:22:13,960 --> 00:22:18,359 Speaker 7: there is at least one by election. I think we 465 00:22:18,440 --> 00:22:21,960 Speaker 7: had three in the last term of government. So look, 466 00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:24,760 Speaker 7: there's always by elections. It's the nature of the game. 467 00:22:24,760 --> 00:22:28,760 Speaker 7: As frustrating as it is, that's where we're at. Look, 468 00:22:29,040 --> 00:22:33,160 Speaker 7: preferences will be important in this election. I think we're 469 00:22:33,200 --> 00:22:35,240 Speaker 7: already seeing that. We're already hearing that people. 470 00:22:35,920 --> 00:22:38,000 Speaker 5: Saidy Nightcliff in the last election, you know. 471 00:22:38,560 --> 00:22:40,399 Speaker 7: So I think, yeah, Look, it's going to be a 472 00:22:40,400 --> 00:22:44,760 Speaker 7: tough election for all all parties. But you know, I 473 00:22:44,760 --> 00:22:47,400 Speaker 7: think we do need to continue to do the work 474 00:22:47,440 --> 00:22:49,320 Speaker 7: we've been out on the doors. We've been on the 475 00:22:49,320 --> 00:22:53,680 Speaker 7: foreshore doing that work. It's been incredibly important and it's 476 00:22:53,680 --> 00:22:56,439 Speaker 7: been a valuable insight. And our message is clear, Katie. 477 00:22:56,440 --> 00:22:59,520 Speaker 7: You know you know we're saying, get behind, vote for Ed. 478 00:22:59,600 --> 00:23:01,080 Speaker 7: He'll be a young voice for you and put the 479 00:23:01,080 --> 00:23:02,240 Speaker 7: colp last. 480 00:23:02,440 --> 00:23:04,040 Speaker 2: Authorized by Chancey Paige. 481 00:23:06,840 --> 00:23:07,960 Speaker 4: My life politics. 482 00:23:08,840 --> 00:23:14,160 Speaker 1: You'll be doing live reads for me soon. Look, somebody 483 00:23:14,200 --> 00:23:16,600 Speaker 1: did message through as well in US. Does Suki live 484 00:23:16,760 --> 00:23:19,080 Speaker 1: in Nightcliffe? Now? Somebody else had been in contact with 485 00:23:19,080 --> 00:23:20,960 Speaker 1: me and said that they believe she doesn't, that she 486 00:23:21,040 --> 00:23:25,359 Speaker 1: lives in one of the m's Malacle or Milner, But anyway, 487 00:23:25,400 --> 00:23:26,320 Speaker 1: we'll follow that up. 488 00:23:26,359 --> 00:23:27,840 Speaker 2: I think it's Milner. We will follow that. 489 00:23:28,000 --> 00:23:31,720 Speaker 3: Because Angine lives in Coconut Grove, very close to the border, 490 00:23:31,760 --> 00:23:34,760 Speaker 3: and as we all know, the boundaries in our Northern 491 00:23:34,800 --> 00:23:39,040 Speaker 3: cyburb electorates changed very frequently. So I think the important 492 00:23:39,080 --> 00:23:42,600 Speaker 3: thing is he's part of that community. He understands the 493 00:23:43,040 --> 00:23:46,239 Speaker 3: things that are challenging in that community, absolutely understands that 494 00:23:46,720 --> 00:23:50,560 Speaker 3: people's concerns, and he's absolutely passionate about fighting for residents. 495 00:23:50,600 --> 00:23:53,800 Speaker 2: And that one was written and authorized there. All right, we. 496 00:23:53,880 --> 00:23:56,320 Speaker 1: Better take a very quick break you are listening to 497 00:23:56,400 --> 00:23:59,479 Speaker 1: Mix one O four nine three sixty.

Earlier in the week, Kathleen, 501 00:24:09,520 --> 00:24:11,520 Speaker 1: she's the best stalker in the Northern Territory. 502 00:24:11,520 --> 00:24:12,480 Speaker 2: I reckon our Kathleen. 503 00:24:12,880 --> 00:24:15,959 Speaker 1: She was stalking the Health Minister, Mark Butler, the Federal 504 00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:17,680 Speaker 1: Health Minister, to try and get him on the show. 505 00:24:17,880 --> 00:24:19,320 Speaker 2: We couldn't quite get him on the show. 506 00:24:19,600 --> 00:24:20,920 Speaker 5: Had fled. 507 00:24:20,960 --> 00:24:22,400 Speaker 2: I know, well, but you know. 508 00:24:24,720 --> 00:24:25,840 Speaker 5: It's got a book three weeks. 509 00:24:27,640 --> 00:24:30,880 Speaker 1: But we did get a response from him because there'd 510 00:24:30,880 --> 00:24:34,280 Speaker 1: been a discussion with Luke Gosling who had said that 511 00:24:34,320 --> 00:24:37,520 Speaker 1: there really hadn't been the detail needed in terms of 512 00:24:37,680 --> 00:24:41,680 Speaker 1: maternity funding provided by the Northern Territory government until last week. 513 00:24:41,720 --> 00:24:44,440 Speaker 1: Now the health Minister, the Federal Health Minister, did say 514 00:24:44,440 --> 00:24:47,840 Speaker 1: that he's been working very closely and collaborative with the 515 00:24:47,880 --> 00:24:51,520 Speaker 1: Northern Territory government to ensure that the public maternity care 516 00:24:51,600 --> 00:24:55,200 Speaker 1: services are provided for all women. Now, the Northern Territory 517 00:24:55,200 --> 00:24:57,720 Speaker 1: government and private health insurances have been working together to 518 00:24:57,800 --> 00:25:01,800 Speaker 1: deliver different private options for maternity services in Darwin, is 519 00:25:01,840 --> 00:25:04,760 Speaker 1: what he'd told us in a statement now this week, 520 00:25:04,840 --> 00:25:08,000 Speaker 1: though we also know that well, we only had a 521 00:25:08,000 --> 00:25:11,920 Speaker 1: couple of private obstetricians still working in the Northern Syritory, 522 00:25:12,400 --> 00:25:15,000 Speaker 1: but we caught up with one of those obstetricians a 523 00:25:15,000 --> 00:25:17,640 Speaker 1: little bit earlier in the week. She's now finished up, 524 00:25:18,200 --> 00:25:21,080 Speaker 1: which is a really sad situation, Kathleen, I know that 525 00:25:21,119 --> 00:25:22,960 Speaker 1: she was your private obstetrician. 526 00:25:23,119 --> 00:25:23,720 Speaker 5: Yes, that's right. 527 00:25:23,760 --> 00:25:28,400 Speaker 6: Alia Vmieri delivered my little boy, who's now sixteen months old, 528 00:25:28,400 --> 00:25:31,280 Speaker 6: and yeah, she was incredible. I went through the private 529 00:25:31,320 --> 00:25:34,679 Speaker 6: option both times with my babies because of miscarriages and 530 00:25:34,720 --> 00:25:38,000 Speaker 6: health complications and the like, and I wanted that continuity 531 00:25:38,080 --> 00:25:41,800 Speaker 6: of care to see the same doctor and midwives throughout. 532 00:25:42,119 --> 00:25:45,800 Speaker 6: And I thought it was a really enlightening conversation with 533 00:25:45,960 --> 00:25:49,840 Speaker 6: Alia because of the reasons why you do need to 534 00:25:49,920 --> 00:25:52,959 Speaker 6: have that choice and the assistance that both private and 535 00:25:53,080 --> 00:25:57,919 Speaker 6: public working together make for a better health system, expectively 536 00:25:58,320 --> 00:25:59,080 Speaker 6: maternity care. 537 00:25:59,240 --> 00:26:02,119 Speaker 1: Yeah, and I mean this situation with the private hospital 538 00:26:02,200 --> 00:26:05,760 Speaker 1: Maternity Services closing, it has had an impact in different 539 00:26:05,760 --> 00:26:08,080 Speaker 1: ways then on our public hospital. 540 00:26:08,880 --> 00:26:10,040 Speaker 2: There's no doubt about that. 541 00:26:10,680 --> 00:26:13,480 Speaker 1: But we also have had a lot of discussion in 542 00:26:13,520 --> 00:26:16,440 Speaker 1: the last couple of weeks now, Chancey, you made headlines 543 00:26:16,480 --> 00:26:18,560 Speaker 1: after saying that the air con hadn't been working in 544 00:26:18,640 --> 00:26:22,000 Speaker 1: maternity for five hundred days. Now, we've had different mums 545 00:26:22,040 --> 00:26:25,359 Speaker 1: contact us and speak to us about their concerns within 546 00:26:25,760 --> 00:26:28,679 Speaker 1: you know, within the ward around the air con. We 547 00:26:28,760 --> 00:26:32,760 Speaker 1: also spoke to the CEO of Health, Chris Hoskin, just 548 00:26:32,760 --> 00:26:35,560 Speaker 1: a couple of days ago. He said that there, you know, 549 00:26:36,119 --> 00:26:39,920 Speaker 1: there has been some issues with the air conditioning and 550 00:26:39,920 --> 00:26:41,919 Speaker 1: and you know that if there was any confusion in 551 00:26:42,040 --> 00:26:46,480 Speaker 1: terms of the response that was provided within Parliament, that 552 00:26:46,600 --> 00:26:47,800 Speaker 1: you know, that was on him. 553 00:26:47,880 --> 00:26:49,400 Speaker 2: That information had come from him. 554 00:26:49,400 --> 00:26:51,600 Speaker 1: But he said that it's not a case where it 555 00:26:51,640 --> 00:26:54,880 Speaker 1: hasn't been working for five hundred days. But we've got 556 00:26:54,880 --> 00:26:57,680 Speaker 1: a very old air conditioner in there. I think they 557 00:26:57,680 --> 00:27:00,320 Speaker 1: had to get like a part custom made because it's 558 00:27:00,320 --> 00:27:03,240 Speaker 1: that bloody old that you can't just replace things. But 559 00:27:03,359 --> 00:27:05,520 Speaker 1: all the while, you know, we have got mums, like 560 00:27:05,560 --> 00:27:07,520 Speaker 1: we had a mum on the show earlier in the week, 561 00:27:07,640 --> 00:27:12,240 Speaker 1: Chantelle Chanell, Sorry Chanelle, who had they thought her little 562 00:27:12,240 --> 00:27:14,880 Speaker 1: bub had some serious issue. 563 00:27:15,080 --> 00:27:18,600 Speaker 2: Because it was yeah, padded raised temperature in the neonatal 564 00:27:18,640 --> 00:27:20,840 Speaker 2: intensive key and when she was just hot. 565 00:27:21,600 --> 00:27:26,200 Speaker 7: You know, Okatie rule number one, mums don't lie exactly 566 00:27:26,200 --> 00:27:28,720 Speaker 7: when Territory mums are telling us that it is too 567 00:27:28,760 --> 00:27:31,360 Speaker 7: hot and that they are having to bring in fans 568 00:27:31,640 --> 00:27:34,680 Speaker 7: into the hospital to keep themselves cool and their bubs cool. 569 00:27:35,080 --> 00:27:37,679 Speaker 7: That is what's going on. Territory mums don't lie. And 570 00:27:37,720 --> 00:27:40,600 Speaker 7: I backed Territory mums every day I get. I'm getting 571 00:27:40,600 --> 00:27:43,920 Speaker 7: messages on my phone every day of people sending it through. 572 00:27:43,960 --> 00:27:46,879 Speaker 7: I think there's actually a broader issue here. I've been 573 00:27:46,920 --> 00:27:51,119 Speaker 7: sent photos yesterday of the ventilation vents in the Darwin 574 00:27:51,200 --> 00:27:55,160 Speaker 7: Hospital covered in mold that's sucking air up and filtering 575 00:27:55,160 --> 00:27:56,920 Speaker 7: it through to the rest of the hospital. So I 576 00:27:56,960 --> 00:27:59,159 Speaker 7: think there's some serious concerns here. Yeah, we do need 577 00:27:59,200 --> 00:28:01,600 Speaker 7: to look at it. But you know, again, hearing those 578 00:28:01,960 --> 00:28:05,119 Speaker 7: heart wrenching stories of Territory mums making the decision to 579 00:28:05,160 --> 00:28:08,720 Speaker 7: go into state to give birth in a private hospital 580 00:28:08,800 --> 00:28:11,480 Speaker 7: is not good enough. You know, Australia has one of 581 00:28:11,560 --> 00:28:14,520 Speaker 7: the best healthcare systems in the world. Darwin should not 582 00:28:14,560 --> 00:28:18,120 Speaker 7: be the exception. We are a capital city. We absolutely 583 00:28:18,160 --> 00:28:23,240 Speaker 7: need a functioning public and private health system for Territorians 584 00:28:23,280 --> 00:28:26,680 Speaker 7: to access. It's incredibly important, and you know, I acknowledge 585 00:28:26,720 --> 00:28:29,439 Speaker 7: the work that Mark Butler is doing in this space, 586 00:28:29,480 --> 00:28:32,000 Speaker 7: and I do acknowledge that Mark has been meeting with 587 00:28:32,720 --> 00:28:35,920 Speaker 7: Minister Edgington as well around that. Because we just need 588 00:28:35,960 --> 00:28:37,640 Speaker 7: to get on with it and we need the territory 589 00:28:37,680 --> 00:28:40,840 Speaker 7: government to come forward and help make sure that that 590 00:28:40,920 --> 00:28:43,400 Speaker 7: air conditioning and that work can be done. 591 00:28:43,800 --> 00:28:46,200 Speaker 1: How do we do like, how do we work through 592 00:28:46,200 --> 00:28:48,840 Speaker 1: this when the truth is we probably need a new hospital. 593 00:28:49,080 --> 00:28:51,120 Speaker 1: You know, we spoke to Chris Hosking about that earlier 594 00:28:51,120 --> 00:28:53,120 Speaker 1: in the week as well, Like our hospital is old, 595 00:28:53,480 --> 00:28:55,680 Speaker 1: it's not really fit for purpose. There was photos over 596 00:28:55,720 --> 00:28:58,120 Speaker 1: the weekend. You know, again we're that same area of 597 00:28:58,160 --> 00:29:00,320 Speaker 1: the roof caving in. You know, there's big of it 598 00:29:00,360 --> 00:29:03,720 Speaker 1: falling in again. But like, let's be for reals here, 599 00:29:03,880 --> 00:29:05,360 Speaker 1: we're not going to be able to get that money. 600 00:29:05,400 --> 00:29:06,520 Speaker 5: I don't want the discussion. 601 00:29:06,760 --> 00:29:09,560 Speaker 3: The discussion around a new hospital has been on the 602 00:29:09,640 --> 00:29:12,960 Speaker 3: table for a really long time. And I worked in 603 00:29:12,960 --> 00:29:15,760 Speaker 3: the health department twenty years ago and it was one 604 00:29:15,800 --> 00:29:17,680 Speaker 3: of the discussion points then. And I think one of 605 00:29:17,720 --> 00:29:20,320 Speaker 3: the challenges is when you live in an area like 606 00:29:20,360 --> 00:29:22,160 Speaker 3: the Northern Territory and it is remote. 607 00:29:22,160 --> 00:29:24,040 Speaker 5: Sometimes it can. 608 00:29:23,880 --> 00:29:26,640 Speaker 3: Be difficult to put your case forward to the federal 609 00:29:26,680 --> 00:29:28,640 Speaker 3: government because it's too far away and it's a small 610 00:29:28,680 --> 00:29:33,200 Speaker 3: population down here, and yeah, that's maybe we have to 611 00:29:33,200 --> 00:29:36,240 Speaker 3: make that happen, But the reality is so it's it's 612 00:29:36,280 --> 00:29:38,920 Speaker 3: again something that is a priority. It's been looked at. 613 00:29:39,040 --> 00:29:43,480 Speaker 3: I think that there's lots of options that are being explored. 614 00:29:43,840 --> 00:29:46,360 Speaker 3: I've worked very closely in this there, and I've worked 615 00:29:46,360 --> 00:29:47,880 Speaker 3: in the public and the private system. 616 00:29:48,840 --> 00:29:51,040 Speaker 5: Managing the facilities. 617 00:29:50,400 --> 00:29:54,080 Speaker 3: In our tropical environment is an extra challenging thing, and 618 00:29:54,120 --> 00:29:56,200 Speaker 3: then you're on top of that when something does fail, 619 00:29:56,280 --> 00:29:57,840 Speaker 3: you've got the challenge of getting parts. 620 00:29:57,880 --> 00:30:03,000 Speaker 5: And you've mentioned you've got system that are quite old, and. 621 00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:05,040 Speaker 3: We even know even you buy a computer today, in 622 00:30:05,040 --> 00:30:07,320 Speaker 3: twelve months time, you probably can't get that repaired because 623 00:30:07,360 --> 00:30:10,520 Speaker 3: it's changed. So Minister Edgington has been working really hard 624 00:30:10,560 --> 00:30:13,520 Speaker 3: to have He's had lots of discussions and meetings with 625 00:30:13,640 --> 00:30:18,480 Speaker 3: Minister Butler. The proposal around getting some funding to actually 626 00:30:18,640 --> 00:30:21,880 Speaker 3: create what is considered to be more in line with 627 00:30:21,920 --> 00:30:24,800 Speaker 3: what a private space would look like is well under 628 00:30:24,840 --> 00:30:28,440 Speaker 3: weigh and the discussions for Healthscope I understand and progressing 629 00:30:28,480 --> 00:30:30,800 Speaker 3: as well, which is really, which is good news to 630 00:30:30,840 --> 00:30:35,040 Speaker 3: hear because as someone who worked for that company a 631 00:30:35,080 --> 00:30:40,040 Speaker 3: lifetime ago, it was absolutely disappointed to see that company 632 00:30:40,280 --> 00:30:42,720 Speaker 3: fall apart the way it did because the hospital here, 633 00:30:43,280 --> 00:30:46,600 Speaker 3: Darwin Private Hospital was always the jewel in the crown 634 00:30:46,880 --> 00:30:50,640 Speaker 3: for Healthscope. It was what gave them national coverage. It 635 00:30:50,800 --> 00:30:52,920 Speaker 3: was very profitable. Certainly when I was there, it was 636 00:30:53,000 --> 00:30:55,680 Speaker 3: very profitable. But we delivered about a thousand babies a year, 637 00:30:55,760 --> 00:30:58,480 Speaker 3: So there's been a significant shift over time about where 638 00:30:58,840 --> 00:31:01,280 Speaker 3: women choose to have their babies and how that goes. 639 00:31:01,480 --> 00:31:04,080 Speaker 5: The good news about the obstetric services that. 640 00:31:03,960 --> 00:31:06,160 Speaker 3: All of the doctors who work in the public system 641 00:31:06,200 --> 00:31:08,200 Speaker 3: do have rights to private practice if they want to 642 00:31:09,040 --> 00:31:11,680 Speaker 3: exercise them. So if we can get that up and 643 00:31:11,760 --> 00:31:15,160 Speaker 3: running and Hellscope and something happens with the dun private 644 00:31:15,160 --> 00:31:18,960 Speaker 3: hospital and enables us to reignite the private maternity service, 645 00:31:19,280 --> 00:31:21,120 Speaker 3: I think that those doctors will come back into this. 646 00:31:21,160 --> 00:31:25,440 Speaker 7: Look, I think we've absolutely I'm one hundred percent convinced 647 00:31:25,440 --> 00:31:27,520 Speaker 7: now that we need Robin Carl to go back and 648 00:31:27,600 --> 00:31:29,480 Speaker 7: run HEALTHCPE and get it rolling. 649 00:31:29,520 --> 00:31:33,120 Speaker 4: Because she said she was I love a VI election. 650 00:31:34,440 --> 00:31:37,200 Speaker 7: No, Look, I think let's be honest. You know, I 651 00:31:37,200 --> 00:31:40,400 Speaker 7: think I'm certainly going to advocate with my colleagues. We 652 00:31:40,440 --> 00:31:44,760 Speaker 7: need a new hospital hospital and before she dies in 653 00:31:45,120 --> 00:31:47,720 Speaker 7: I will absolutely support Robin Ladley as well Alice. 654 00:31:47,520 --> 00:31:52,000 Speaker 4: Springs Hospital needs. You know, I hope you're listening, Robzo. 655 00:31:52,280 --> 00:31:55,440 Speaker 7: Now look, Darwin Hospital, I'm going to advocate and Territory 656 00:31:55,520 --> 00:31:57,280 Speaker 7: Labor are going to look at what our options are. 657 00:31:57,320 --> 00:31:59,880 Speaker 7: We do think that there needs to be a new hospital. 658 00:32:00,080 --> 00:32:04,480 Speaker 7: I mean Darwin Hospital was built. It's designed from Canberra. 659 00:32:04,640 --> 00:32:09,560 Speaker 7: So the shutters on the windows Calgary, so you know 660 00:32:09,760 --> 00:32:13,040 Speaker 7: it's got snow shutters. Yeah, the day it snows in Darwin. 661 00:32:14,720 --> 00:32:16,000 Speaker 2: There's going to be a real worry. 662 00:32:16,080 --> 00:32:16,280 Speaker 1: Yeah. 663 00:32:17,120 --> 00:32:20,840 Speaker 7: To be all honest, let's say we all acknowledge the 664 00:32:20,880 --> 00:32:25,080 Speaker 7: hard working, amazing health an incredible, a great job. They're 665 00:32:25,160 --> 00:32:25,960 Speaker 7: in a crappy hospital. 666 00:32:27,160 --> 00:32:29,480 Speaker 1: Geess it'd be difficult for them though at different times, 667 00:32:29,480 --> 00:32:31,640 Speaker 1: wouldn't it. You know, if you're worried about the bloody 668 00:32:31,640 --> 00:32:33,800 Speaker 1: air con and things like that, and I you know, 669 00:32:33,920 --> 00:32:36,560 Speaker 1: and that's exactly right, and you go. 670 00:32:36,800 --> 00:32:37,560 Speaker 2: You know, people that. 671 00:32:37,600 --> 00:32:40,640 Speaker 1: Work in the health care system they do it because 672 00:32:40,680 --> 00:32:42,920 Speaker 1: they genuinely love their jobs and they want to help people. 673 00:32:42,960 --> 00:32:46,320 Speaker 7: What's important is we should be having the conversation now 674 00:32:46,960 --> 00:32:50,200 Speaker 7: future proofing. If we're going to build a new Darwin hospital, 675 00:32:50,640 --> 00:32:52,880 Speaker 7: is it on the same site or is there another 676 00:32:53,000 --> 00:32:54,360 Speaker 7: site that can be well. 677 00:32:54,360 --> 00:32:56,400 Speaker 1: We had this discussion with Chris earlier in the week 678 00:32:56,440 --> 00:32:59,000 Speaker 1: and he'd spoken about whether it could potentially be Palmeston, 679 00:32:59,040 --> 00:33:01,560 Speaker 1: whether it could bear, but he said he felt. 680 00:33:01,360 --> 00:33:02,760 Speaker 2: That maybe that shit was side. 681 00:33:02,560 --> 00:33:06,160 Speaker 3: Sloping done about fifteen twenty years ago where they looked 682 00:33:06,160 --> 00:33:08,600 Speaker 3: at Berrima as an all in sight. 683 00:33:09,160 --> 00:33:10,720 Speaker 5: I don't know whatever happened to that work. 684 00:33:10,840 --> 00:33:14,120 Speaker 3: Certainly we've got the Palmerston Regional Hospital and there's land 685 00:33:14,200 --> 00:33:17,080 Speaker 3: available there. The reality is, though we need the federal 686 00:33:17,160 --> 00:33:18,920 Speaker 3: government to come on board with this to build a 687 00:33:18,960 --> 00:33:19,880 Speaker 3: brand new hospital. 688 00:33:19,960 --> 00:33:22,720 Speaker 5: You're talking at least one billion, if not more dollars. 689 00:33:23,560 --> 00:33:25,760 Speaker 3: The good news is if you're building a new hospital, 690 00:33:25,800 --> 00:33:27,800 Speaker 3: you don't have to fight for operational funding because you've 691 00:33:27,840 --> 00:33:31,640 Speaker 3: already got that. But you absolutely need the capital work 692 00:33:31,640 --> 00:33:33,200 Speaker 3: and I'm sure that that's part of the work that 693 00:33:33,320 --> 00:33:34,320 Speaker 3: Chris Hoskin's doing. 694 00:33:34,360 --> 00:33:38,200 Speaker 7: And building a hospital is good debt, you know, because 695 00:33:38,320 --> 00:33:40,600 Speaker 7: it's looking after our people. It's making sure they have 696 00:33:40,640 --> 00:33:42,840 Speaker 7: a good experience, it's making sure that their health is 697 00:33:42,880 --> 00:33:43,800 Speaker 7: first and foremost. 698 00:33:43,840 --> 00:33:45,280 Speaker 4: So I think what we do. 699 00:33:45,200 --> 00:33:48,040 Speaker 7: Need to do is before we go down, we all 700 00:33:48,080 --> 00:33:49,760 Speaker 7: know we need a new hospital. No one should be 701 00:33:49,800 --> 00:33:52,320 Speaker 7: denying that because what we've got Isabelle old and had 702 00:33:52,360 --> 00:33:54,760 Speaker 7: its days. But where is the site of a new 703 00:33:54,800 --> 00:33:57,959 Speaker 7: hospital going to be? And then those discussions can go forward. 704 00:33:57,960 --> 00:34:01,040 Speaker 7: But certainly, I absolutely I think and want to commit 705 00:34:01,080 --> 00:34:02,560 Speaker 7: to looking at building a new hospital. 706 00:34:02,600 --> 00:34:03,080 Speaker 4: We need it. 707 00:34:03,360 --> 00:34:05,840 Speaker 2: Well, let's take a quick break. You are listening to 708 00:34:05,880 --> 00:34:08,480 Speaker 2: Mix one O four ninees three sixty. It is the 709 00:34:08,520 --> 00:34:09,200 Speaker 2: week that was. 710 00:34:09,680 --> 00:34:11,799 Speaker 1: You are listening to Mix one O four nine's three 711 00:34:11,880 --> 00:34:14,520 Speaker 1: sixty if you have just joined us in the studio today. 712 00:34:14,760 --> 00:34:16,480 Speaker 2: We've got Kathleen Gazola, We've. 713 00:34:16,320 --> 00:34:19,959 Speaker 1: Got Robin Carl and Chancey Paike all joining us now. 714 00:34:20,320 --> 00:34:25,000 Speaker 1: It's been an interesting, well unfortunately not a great week 715 00:34:25,040 --> 00:34:26,800 Speaker 1: in Alice Springs when it comes to some of the 716 00:34:26,880 --> 00:34:31,480 Speaker 1: shocking vision that has come through and some shocking sort 717 00:34:31,480 --> 00:34:35,520 Speaker 1: of violence experienced in the Red Center on Friday last week, 718 00:34:36,000 --> 00:34:40,799 Speaker 1: there was a well, someone wielding a machete in town 719 00:34:41,000 --> 00:34:43,720 Speaker 1: on Friday and a fight. 720 00:34:43,880 --> 00:34:45,200 Speaker 2: I guess you would call it a brawl. 721 00:34:45,760 --> 00:34:49,480 Speaker 1: We also know then in the early hours of Sunday 722 00:34:49,560 --> 00:34:53,360 Speaker 1: morning outside the Alice Springs Hospital there was a girl 723 00:34:53,520 --> 00:34:58,200 Speaker 1: who was chased inside by multiple defenders with machetes. Then 724 00:34:58,239 --> 00:35:01,879 Speaker 1: we've also vision has been obtained by Sky News. Matt 725 00:35:01,920 --> 00:35:05,719 Speaker 1: Cunningham reporting today police have arrested seven people over the 726 00:35:05,719 --> 00:35:09,960 Speaker 1: brutal bashing of a teenage girl in Alice. Now, this 727 00:35:10,160 --> 00:35:14,680 Speaker 1: happened in a lane way last Friday and shows, you know, 728 00:35:14,880 --> 00:35:18,360 Speaker 1: really terrible stuff where this girl's bashed with a bat, 729 00:35:19,120 --> 00:35:22,320 Speaker 1: has a metal scooter thrown at her. It is understood 730 00:35:22,360 --> 00:35:24,600 Speaker 1: that she had to be taken to hospital, but her 731 00:35:24,640 --> 00:35:25,840 Speaker 1: condition is not known. 732 00:35:26,000 --> 00:35:26,239 Speaker 5: Now. 733 00:35:26,480 --> 00:35:29,960 Speaker 1: Marian Scrimjaw said that she was horrified after watching at 734 00:35:30,320 --> 00:35:32,560 Speaker 1: We did speak to the police earlier in the week. 735 00:35:32,600 --> 00:35:35,719 Speaker 1: We spoke to the commander, James gray Spence, who had 736 00:35:35,760 --> 00:35:39,359 Speaker 1: said that, you know that there had been some issues experienced, 737 00:35:39,600 --> 00:35:42,120 Speaker 1: the police working very hard to make sure that they 738 00:35:42,160 --> 00:35:43,280 Speaker 1: were on top of things. 739 00:35:44,080 --> 00:35:46,640 Speaker 2: I guess it's always, well, it is always. 740 00:35:46,480 --> 00:35:49,920 Speaker 1: Terrible when you see violence, whether it's in Alice Springs, 741 00:35:49,960 --> 00:35:52,720 Speaker 1: whether it's here in Darwin, whether it's in what wherever 742 00:35:52,800 --> 00:35:56,759 Speaker 1: it is, that kind of violence, it's terrible. And then 743 00:35:56,800 --> 00:35:59,480 Speaker 1: it's an added level when it's you know, like a 744 00:35:59,520 --> 00:36:01,480 Speaker 1: young woman on the ground being bashed. 745 00:36:01,920 --> 00:36:06,800 Speaker 3: These incidents are horrific and absolutely unacceptable, and I think 746 00:36:06,880 --> 00:36:09,799 Speaker 3: that it's one of the reasons why we really have 747 00:36:09,880 --> 00:36:11,560 Speaker 3: to focus and look at particularly when you look at 748 00:36:11,560 --> 00:36:15,440 Speaker 3: the ages of the people involved in some of these incidents, 749 00:36:15,480 --> 00:36:20,040 Speaker 3: which I want to emphasize are becoming fewer and fewer. 750 00:36:20,440 --> 00:36:24,040 Speaker 3: And I was in Alice Springs on Wednesday met with 751 00:36:24,080 --> 00:36:26,239 Speaker 3: a lot of businesses and they are saying that yes, 752 00:36:26,280 --> 00:36:29,319 Speaker 3: there are still the occasional incident, which is horrendous, but 753 00:36:29,600 --> 00:36:33,680 Speaker 3: generally there's much less crime happening. They can see the change, 754 00:36:33,719 --> 00:36:36,400 Speaker 3: they can see the uplift, and the reality is that 755 00:36:36,440 --> 00:36:39,160 Speaker 3: for some of these incidents, it's battles that have come 756 00:36:39,200 --> 00:36:41,680 Speaker 3: in from communities. So it tells me that we have 757 00:36:41,760 --> 00:36:43,959 Speaker 3: to do a lot more with our communities to really 758 00:36:44,000 --> 00:36:45,880 Speaker 3: empower them to deal with this. 759 00:36:46,000 --> 00:36:47,279 Speaker 5: It's really frustrating. 760 00:36:47,320 --> 00:36:49,799 Speaker 3: I know from the elders that I've spoken to in 761 00:36:49,840 --> 00:36:54,000 Speaker 3: different communities about how do they get their kids understanding 762 00:36:54,120 --> 00:36:56,840 Speaker 3: that payback, for example, it's not something that you should 763 00:36:56,840 --> 00:36:59,080 Speaker 3: be doing today. There are other ways to deal with 764 00:36:59,120 --> 00:37:03,120 Speaker 3: your frustrations and new concerns, but nobody wants to see 765 00:37:03,120 --> 00:37:05,799 Speaker 3: that we absolutely have to make sure that we deal 766 00:37:05,840 --> 00:37:08,520 Speaker 3: with that and we have to continue to support the 767 00:37:08,560 --> 00:37:10,360 Speaker 3: Alice Springs community in this space. 768 00:37:10,680 --> 00:37:13,840 Speaker 7: Look, I think first of all, it's important to acknowledge 769 00:37:13,920 --> 00:37:16,840 Speaker 7: leadership where leadership shows, and Robin Carle did show leadership. 770 00:37:16,880 --> 00:37:18,080 Speaker 4: She's done more than the Chief. 771 00:37:17,880 --> 00:37:20,480 Speaker 7: Minister in Alice Springs getting out meeting with businesses and 772 00:37:20,520 --> 00:37:23,360 Speaker 7: talking to people. I know that because they've told me 773 00:37:23,400 --> 00:37:25,560 Speaker 7: that she's been there, she's spoken to him and she's listened. 774 00:37:25,600 --> 00:37:28,360 Speaker 7: So that's leadership and I will absolutely acknowledge that. I 775 00:37:28,360 --> 00:37:31,879 Speaker 7: think what we are seeing across Central Australia though, is yes, 776 00:37:32,320 --> 00:37:34,879 Speaker 7: there are some positive trends in the crime stats, absolutely, 777 00:37:35,160 --> 00:37:37,640 Speaker 7: but what is happening is people are saying that the 778 00:37:37,680 --> 00:37:41,480 Speaker 7: intensity and the severity is increasing. You know, like wielding 779 00:37:41,520 --> 00:37:45,600 Speaker 7: machetes and chasing people in hospitals is not normal and 780 00:37:45,719 --> 00:37:48,399 Speaker 7: it hasn't been normal for a while. I absolutely acknowledge that, 781 00:37:49,080 --> 00:37:51,040 Speaker 7: and Robin is right. We do need to do work 782 00:37:51,080 --> 00:37:53,799 Speaker 7: to look at and empower people. So what we need is, 783 00:37:54,520 --> 00:37:56,600 Speaker 7: you know, we need to look at crime prevention by design, 784 00:37:56,960 --> 00:37:59,400 Speaker 7: getting rid of those old yellow led lights, starting to 785 00:37:59,480 --> 00:38:02,480 Speaker 7: light them up with clear lights. We can't arrest our 786 00:38:02,520 --> 00:38:04,799 Speaker 7: way out of it. Please do a bloody good job. 787 00:38:04,920 --> 00:38:07,520 Speaker 7: But they can't be everywhere, So we need to look 788 00:38:07,560 --> 00:38:09,840 Speaker 7: at how do we do stuff around peacekeeping, how do 789 00:38:09,880 --> 00:38:12,760 Speaker 7: we do stuff around mediating, and that can be done. 790 00:38:12,880 --> 00:38:15,160 Speaker 7: The government has sat on its hands for five hundred 791 00:38:15,160 --> 00:38:17,680 Speaker 7: and something days now unable to tell us what they're 792 00:38:17,719 --> 00:38:20,399 Speaker 7: doing with law and justice groups in remote communities. 793 00:38:20,760 --> 00:38:22,799 Speaker 4: We need to know are we going to see more? 794 00:38:22,840 --> 00:38:25,840 Speaker 7: They're supposed to be twenty under the Aboriginal Justice Agreement, 795 00:38:26,120 --> 00:38:31,719 Speaker 7: there are only five at the moment. So empowering local leadership, peacekeeping, mediating. 796 00:38:32,000 --> 00:38:34,040 Speaker 4: I was out in Willowa community. 797 00:38:33,560 --> 00:38:36,319 Speaker 7: A couple of months ago where I saw firsthand the 798 00:38:36,360 --> 00:38:41,400 Speaker 7: local leadership working with the alos completely de escalate a 799 00:38:41,480 --> 00:38:44,600 Speaker 7: complex situation that had been spilling into Alice Springs. 800 00:38:44,960 --> 00:38:47,919 Speaker 4: We need more of that. That's the role of the territory. 801 00:38:47,600 --> 00:38:51,359 Speaker 7: Government, and I'm not going to say it's purely their job. 802 00:38:51,800 --> 00:38:54,759 Speaker 7: It is the role NT ray is money that the 803 00:38:54,800 --> 00:38:58,000 Speaker 7: Commonwealth have given, so we need those local organizations as 804 00:38:58,000 --> 00:39:01,600 Speaker 7: well who are receiving funding or who are way on funding. 805 00:39:01,239 --> 00:39:02,920 Speaker 4: To be delivered to see it. 806 00:39:02,960 --> 00:39:05,319 Speaker 7: So I guess the real question is how much money 807 00:39:05,360 --> 00:39:09,400 Speaker 7: in the ntray is for peacekeeping and mediating and where 808 00:39:09,440 --> 00:39:11,320 Speaker 7: is the government at with the law and justice scripts 809 00:39:11,320 --> 00:39:13,120 Speaker 7: because that's how we change this landscape. 810 00:39:13,200 --> 00:39:14,959 Speaker 6: That's the point I wanted to make is we had 811 00:39:15,080 --> 00:39:18,120 Speaker 6: the Prime Minister come a couple of years ago to 812 00:39:18,320 --> 00:39:21,759 Speaker 6: Alice Springs after a big series of crime that had 813 00:39:21,800 --> 00:39:25,239 Speaker 6: happened that made national headlines, and this money that was 814 00:39:25,320 --> 00:39:29,560 Speaker 6: promised that it really hasn't said much about how those 815 00:39:29,600 --> 00:39:33,160 Speaker 6: are going. KPIs of what organizations have got it, what 816 00:39:33,200 --> 00:39:35,200 Speaker 6: they've achieved, and so on and so forth. 817 00:39:35,719 --> 00:39:39,000 Speaker 7: Question Kathleen about there is a joint committee of the 818 00:39:39,040 --> 00:39:43,000 Speaker 7: Commonwealth and the Territory and the local leaderships, the alg 819 00:39:43,080 --> 00:39:44,359 Speaker 7: the Aboriginal Leadership Group. 820 00:39:44,600 --> 00:39:45,840 Speaker 4: I just want to status update. 821 00:39:45,880 --> 00:39:48,640 Speaker 7: Where's the infrastructure projects that the NT government said that 822 00:39:48,640 --> 00:39:51,319 Speaker 7: they were going to deliver? Where's the programs that were 823 00:39:51,360 --> 00:39:53,360 Speaker 7: going to be rolled out from the Commonwealth and the 824 00:39:53,480 --> 00:39:54,680 Speaker 7: Territory and the leadership. 825 00:39:54,840 --> 00:39:56,839 Speaker 3: I think one of the challenges in this space is 826 00:39:56,880 --> 00:40:00,359 Speaker 3: there are so many groups involved in this space, many 827 00:40:00,920 --> 00:40:04,920 Speaker 3: non government organizations who are all working together, sometimes in parallel, 828 00:40:05,080 --> 00:40:10,240 Speaker 3: sometimes at odds, and gathering all that information together, actually 829 00:40:10,280 --> 00:40:13,200 Speaker 3: working and sitting down where the where the things are 830 00:40:13,360 --> 00:40:16,440 Speaker 3: needed most and where you can execute them best is 831 00:40:16,520 --> 00:40:18,560 Speaker 3: part of the challenge. And that's where the talking to 832 00:40:18,600 --> 00:40:21,680 Speaker 3: community and getting out there and Minister Edgington is a 833 00:40:21,840 --> 00:40:26,800 Speaker 3: minister responsible for Aboriginal affairs and is working really hard 834 00:40:26,880 --> 00:40:30,400 Speaker 3: in creating that community network and looking at the community 835 00:40:31,320 --> 00:40:33,799 Speaker 3: groups who are saying, yes, we want to be able 836 00:40:33,840 --> 00:40:37,040 Speaker 3: to be empowered to self govern and actually take some 837 00:40:37,120 --> 00:40:40,640 Speaker 3: steps in this area. So there is sometimes you know, 838 00:40:40,719 --> 00:40:43,600 Speaker 3: you've got the duck paddling really really hard under the water. 839 00:40:43,640 --> 00:40:46,719 Speaker 5: It's hard to see it, but some were meant to 840 00:40:46,800 --> 00:40:47,920 Speaker 5: have been done posts. 841 00:40:47,960 --> 00:40:49,400 Speaker 4: But it can't just be packed up. 842 00:40:49,880 --> 00:40:53,040 Speaker 7: Steve Edgington is not a bad blake, I know, right, 843 00:40:53,160 --> 00:40:55,160 Speaker 7: but it can't be. You are friends with me, but 844 00:40:55,320 --> 00:40:58,160 Speaker 7: like just to be serious here, like you can't leave 845 00:40:58,320 --> 00:41:00,960 Speaker 7: all the Aboriginal issues to one habnet minister. And I'm 846 00:41:00,960 --> 00:41:04,480 Speaker 7: not saying that I know that Edgo and Robin have 847 00:41:04,600 --> 00:41:07,440 Speaker 7: been out, but Mary Claire Boothy is the Attorney General. 848 00:41:07,960 --> 00:41:10,400 Speaker 7: She cannot tell me how many law and justice groups 849 00:41:10,600 --> 00:41:13,359 Speaker 7: she's actually met with in remote communities or community courts 850 00:41:13,400 --> 00:41:15,799 Speaker 7: she's actually been to. If we're saying that these are 851 00:41:15,800 --> 00:41:19,839 Speaker 7: where the problems are stemming from and growing. You know, 852 00:41:19,880 --> 00:41:22,440 Speaker 7: we can't keep dealing with being the ambulance at the end. 853 00:41:22,800 --> 00:41:24,800 Speaker 7: We do need to look at how do we overcome 854 00:41:24,880 --> 00:41:27,440 Speaker 7: this so that we're not seeing increases in DV or 855 00:41:27,440 --> 00:41:28,720 Speaker 7: alcohol fueled violence. 856 00:41:28,760 --> 00:41:31,560 Speaker 2: Well, look, and we're seeing a bit of tinkering around 857 00:41:31,600 --> 00:41:32,640 Speaker 2: the edges as well. 858 00:41:33,360 --> 00:41:36,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'll give you that we're nearly out of time, 859 00:41:36,200 --> 00:41:38,120 Speaker 1: but we're seeing a bit of tinkering around the edges 860 00:41:38,160 --> 00:41:39,640 Speaker 1: as well when it comes to some of the ways 861 00:41:39,640 --> 00:41:42,719 Speaker 1: that we're trying to deal with different issues in Central Australia. 862 00:41:42,760 --> 00:41:45,720 Speaker 1: And this week, well I cannot let you go without 863 00:41:46,120 --> 00:41:48,239 Speaker 1: talking about the headline that's been around the nation. 864 00:41:48,400 --> 00:41:49,600 Speaker 2: No Palmi, no beer. 865 00:41:50,520 --> 00:41:54,000 Speaker 1: You know, the new rule that came into place from 866 00:41:54,080 --> 00:41:58,640 Speaker 1: the Northern Territory Liquor Commission. So basically, anyone who orders 867 00:41:58,640 --> 00:42:02,120 Speaker 1: a full strength drink twenty venues across our springs during 868 00:42:02,200 --> 00:42:06,319 Speaker 1: lunch hours on Wednesdays to Fridays must also order a 869 00:42:06,400 --> 00:42:08,200 Speaker 1: meal and apparently you got to eat it with a 870 00:42:08,280 --> 00:42:09,000 Speaker 1: knife and fork. 871 00:42:09,239 --> 00:42:10,799 Speaker 5: It's oddly specific, isn't it. 872 00:42:10,800 --> 00:42:12,239 Speaker 2: It's very specific. 873 00:42:12,640 --> 00:42:15,920 Speaker 1: Well, in the hospitality you're pretty annoyed about this as well. 874 00:42:18,760 --> 00:42:23,960 Speaker 3: It's it Well, why Wednesday to Friday, why not the 875 00:42:24,000 --> 00:42:26,200 Speaker 3: rest of the time, And why a knife and fork? 876 00:42:26,280 --> 00:42:28,120 Speaker 5: While all of this you can have other drinks. 877 00:42:28,160 --> 00:42:30,799 Speaker 3: It's a very oddly specific thing, and we have I've 878 00:42:30,840 --> 00:42:33,319 Speaker 3: had some discussions with a couple of. 879 00:42:33,280 --> 00:42:36,839 Speaker 5: Businesses who are impacted. And I know, I don't drink beer, 880 00:42:36,960 --> 00:42:38,839 Speaker 5: so it's such a. 881 00:42:40,320 --> 00:42:43,040 Speaker 3: Girl and I'm a bubbles girl and I you know, 882 00:42:43,120 --> 00:42:45,160 Speaker 3: but I do draw the line at eating a pizza 883 00:42:45,200 --> 00:42:47,040 Speaker 3: with a knife for fork. So look, I think we 884 00:42:47,120 --> 00:42:48,680 Speaker 3: have to have a really strong look at it, see 885 00:42:48,719 --> 00:42:50,920 Speaker 3: what the intent was, because I'm not sure that this 886 00:42:51,040 --> 00:42:51,800 Speaker 3: hits the intent. 887 00:42:52,080 --> 00:42:53,879 Speaker 7: I think there's been a lot of work done here 888 00:42:53,880 --> 00:42:56,920 Speaker 7: with the Riley Review. I think there's risk based licensing 889 00:42:56,960 --> 00:42:59,359 Speaker 7: in the territory already, So how is that working, what's 890 00:42:59,360 --> 00:43:02,600 Speaker 7: that interface and what's telling us? I mean, look, let's 891 00:43:02,600 --> 00:43:05,399 Speaker 7: be clear, and we have to look at measures that 892 00:43:05,560 --> 00:43:08,960 Speaker 7: are blanket measures and practical and practical. So I think 893 00:43:09,040 --> 00:43:11,239 Speaker 7: let's explore this, let's see what it is the Liquor 894 00:43:11,239 --> 00:43:13,279 Speaker 7: Commission have done it. I think we just need to 895 00:43:13,360 --> 00:43:15,480 Speaker 7: understand the rationale a bit more well. 896 00:43:15,520 --> 00:43:18,080 Speaker 1: And I also want to see data any of the 897 00:43:18,160 --> 00:43:20,960 Speaker 1: different changes that we make. I actually think it's important 898 00:43:21,000 --> 00:43:23,720 Speaker 1: to have data because you know, even the former labor 899 00:43:23,719 --> 00:43:26,920 Speaker 1: government was you know, was at different times slammed over 900 00:43:26,960 --> 00:43:29,719 Speaker 1: the BDR or you know, people having a crack about 901 00:43:29,719 --> 00:43:32,960 Speaker 1: different alcohol restrictions that were in place. I think if 902 00:43:33,000 --> 00:43:35,200 Speaker 1: you've got data that supports what you're doing, or you've 903 00:43:35,200 --> 00:43:37,719 Speaker 1: got data more generally to be able to go well, 904 00:43:37,719 --> 00:43:41,080 Speaker 1: this is the situation before, and this is a situation now, 905 00:43:41,120 --> 00:43:44,160 Speaker 1: not with just everything, but with specific change. 906 00:43:44,200 --> 00:43:46,600 Speaker 7: I agree, I think data is important, but I think 907 00:43:46,640 --> 00:43:51,000 Speaker 7: as well, we need to get to this. The territory 908 00:43:51,120 --> 00:43:54,000 Speaker 7: in some places has a problem with alcohol and alcohol 909 00:43:54,040 --> 00:43:57,359 Speaker 7: fueled violence, absolutely, but also I think, you know, I mean, 910 00:43:57,400 --> 00:44:00,399 Speaker 7: we were all around in the nineties and eighties when 911 00:44:00,440 --> 00:44:02,880 Speaker 7: we had these great campaigns at learning to live with 912 00:44:02,920 --> 00:44:06,600 Speaker 7: alcohol and learning how you can drink responsively and not 913 00:44:06,760 --> 00:44:07,440 Speaker 7: go home, and. 914 00:44:07,840 --> 00:44:09,480 Speaker 5: That's missing now, right. That's the thing. 915 00:44:09,960 --> 00:44:11,960 Speaker 3: The thing that I get worked up about is we 916 00:44:12,000 --> 00:44:15,720 Speaker 3: are talking about adults who we want to treat like children, 917 00:44:15,760 --> 00:44:18,560 Speaker 3: and that's not okay. And I think we actually have 918 00:44:18,680 --> 00:44:22,920 Speaker 3: to do things respectfully and make sure the work that 919 00:44:22,960 --> 00:44:26,359 Speaker 3: we did in the past that worked. Sometimes revisiting that 920 00:44:26,560 --> 00:44:30,120 Speaker 3: and bringing back to the future in play is the answer. 921 00:44:30,600 --> 00:44:33,040 Speaker 1: Well, Look we've run out of time. It's after ten o'clock. 922 00:44:33,080 --> 00:44:36,040 Speaker 1: We always run out of time in here.
