Sydney, NSW – The Parliamentary Workplace Support Service has revealed a troubling surge in complaints of sexual misconduct within federal parliament, handling 30 cases of sexual assault, harassment, stalking, and assault in its first nine months of operation. The annual report from the support service, established following the landmark Set the Standard report, shows a total of 339 complaints managed between October 2023 and June 2024. This includes 33 cases of bullying and 62 cases involving family or domestic violence, substance abuse, or mental health issues. Health Minister Mark Butler expressed concern over the findings, acknowledging the need for improved workplace conduct at Parliament House. “It’s really concerning, but as many who have worked in parliament or around parliament for a long time perhaps have said, it’s not entirely surprising,” Butler told Sky News. He emphasized the importance of accountability and the need for continued efforts to raise standards. Earlier this year, MPs passed laws to establish an Independent Parliamentary Standards Commission, tasked with investigating workplace conduct and enforcing a behavioural code. Nationals Leader David Littleproud highlighted the progress made but stressed that more work is needed. “What these numbers today demonstrate is that after 12 months of reforms, it shows that we’ve created an environment where people feel comfortable to come forward,” Littleproud said on Nine’s Today program. The report underscores the ongoing challenges in creating a safe and respectful workplace within federal parliament. As reforms continue, the focus remains on ensuring that all individuals feel supported and protected. For those in need of support, the National Sexual Abuse and Redress Support Service can be reached at 1800 211 028, 1800 RESPECT at 1800 737 732, and Lifeline at 13 11 14.

Sydney, NSW – With Donald Trump back in the White House, questions have arisen about the future of the AUKUS deal, a multibillion-dollar agreement that would see Australia acquire nuclear-powered submarines from the US. Despite initial concerns, experts believe the deal will remain intact. Charles Edel , Australia chair at the Washington-based Center for Strategic and International Studies, reassures that Trump is likely to support AUKUS. “AUKUS looks like a deal Trump should be able to get behind. Not only is Australia investing in the United States, but this is a classic example of allies doing more for themselves and alongside the United States,” Edel explained on ABC’s Insiders program. AUKUS was a key topic in the first conversation between Trump and Prime Minister Anthony Albanese following the US election. Under the deal, the US will sell three Virginia-class submarines to Australia starting in the early 2030s, with new submarines to be built subsequently. Health Minister Mark Butler emphasized that Trump’s election does not signal a shift in Australia’s commitment to net-zero emissions, despite Trump’s stance on the Paris climate agreement. “It won’t stop the global investment shift towards net zero technology,” Butler told Sky News. Butler also noted that Trump’s victory highlights voters’ demand for governments to prioritize cost-of-living issues. “Households want their governments focused on them and doing everything they responsibly can to help,” he said. The relationship between Australia and the US is expected to endure, regardless of who is in the White House. However, Butler warned that Trump’s plans to impose tariffs could indirectly impact Australia’s economy by slowing global growth and increasing inflationary pressures. Opposition housing spokesman Michael Sukkar pointed out that Australia’s cost-of-living crisis is more severe than that in the US, urging the government to focus on domestic issues. “The US election result sends a strong message to this government. This government has been very distracted,” Sukkar said. As the political landscape shifts, Australians are encouraged to stay informed and engaged.

Kogarah, NSW – The Albanese government’s plan to ban children under 16 from social media and gaming platforms has sparked significant opposition among local parents and teens. The proposed legislation, intended to protect young Australians from online harms, is facing backlash for potentially limiting freedom of expression and causing more harm than good. Human Rights Commissioner Lorraine Finlay has raised alarms about the rushed nature of the laws, emphasizing the need for careful implementation. “It’s crucial that we don’t rush into creating laws that haven’t been properly consulted with the children who will be most affected,” Finlay stated. She warned that the legislation could negatively impact how children engage online. Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has sought input from state and territory leaders, highlighting the urgency of addressing online harms while ensuring practical and beneficial laws. Local Kogarah parents are voicing their concerns. James Nguyen , a father of three, worries about the broader implications: “Banning social media could isolate kids and prevent them from learning essential digital skills.” Emma Roberts , a local teacher, added, “We need to find a balance that protects children without stifling their ability to communicate and learn online.” The debate intensifies as the Albanese government also tackles online misinformation and disinformation, privacy reforms, and new doxxing offences. Critics argue that these measures, while well-intentioned, might stifle free speech and public debate. With the legislation still in the works, Kogarah residents are encouraged to voice their opinions and stay tuned to 90.1 NBC FM for the latest updates on this developing story. Will this crackdown protect our children or limit their freedoms? The community awaits the outcome with bated breath.
