Constituency Question: freeway noise in Boroondara

Sue Pennicuik

A number of times I have raised the issue of freeway noise that affects the residents of the City of Boroondara in the area abutting the Eastern and Monash freeways and the issue that older roads are subject to the noise levels of 68 decibels, whereas new freeways have to have their noise levels contained to 63 decibels.

Members statement: Glen Eira food waste collection

Sue Pennicuik

I would like to congratulate the City of Glen Eira which from the first of this month has introduced the putting of food waste and food scraps in its green waste collection, which has been running for years. It of course collected garden waste, but from now on in the City of Glen Eira we will be able to put fruit and vegetable scraps, used papers, paper towels, coffee grounds, dairy leftovers, eggshells, meat scraps and bones, bread, pasta and rice in the green waste collection.

Membership of the Privileges Committee

Sue Pennicuik

I move that this house appoints Ms Springle to be the chair of the Privileges Committee and a member from a minority group or Independent member to be the deputy chair of the Privileges Committee.

Motion: Victims of crime support

Sue Pennicuik

I am a bit perplexed by the motion put forward by Mr O'Donohue, motion 538, which asks the house to note that since the election of the Andrews government there has been an increase in calls and referrals to the victims of crime helpline and an increase in victims assistance program cases, both related to non-family violence-related crime.

Minister, work with Grandmas Against Removals

Lidia Thorpe

The Greens are calling on the Government to include local communities in decisions about out-of-home care Aboriginal child placements

Justice Legislation Amendment (Access to Justice) Bill 2018

Sue Pennicuik

I am very pleased to speak today on the Justice Legislation Amendment (Access to Justice) Bill 2018, which is an omnibus bill and makes amendments to a large number of acts in the justice portfolio. In particular it focuses on 16 of the 60 recommendations made in the Access to Justice Review, which was released in August 2016, and that was undertaken by the Department of Justice and Regulation with the assistance of Crown Counsel Melinda Richards, SC, and the former chair of the Queensland Legal Aid Commission, Rachel Hunter. I have read the report, and I think it is a really good report. One would say it is a timely, if not actually overdue, report.

Adjournment: Yarra Boulevard, Kew

Sue Pennicuik

Residents living on and near Yarra Boulevard in Kew continue to raise concerns about the use and safety of this road, which is under the care, management and responsibility of VicRoads, with council responsible for the footpaths and Parks Victoria for the adjacent parkland.

Members Statement: ABC Elsternwick site

Sue Pennicuik

In November last year the famous ABC TV studios in Gordon Street, Elsternwick, officially closed. What is to become of the iconic studios where shows such as Countdown, Adventure Island, Bellbird, Kath and Kim, the Late Show, SeaChange, Spicks and Specks, Shaun Micallef's Mad as Hell, the Big Gig and In Gordon Street Tonight were filmed has been the subject of much debate for at least the past five years or since the ABC started to move TV production to Southbank.
