Extractions: Australian Government Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade Skip to content Today is St Kitts and Nevis Independence Day Australia's regional communities are a major source of the nation's export strength and economic wealth. Non-metropolitan Australia generates about half of Australia's export revenue and employs more than one-third of the nation's workforce. Agriculture and mining have always been major contributors to regional exports and remain so. Exports like coal, wool, wheat and sugar still form much of the economic base of regional and rural Australia. But buyers and investors at home and overseas are tuning in to the diversity and quality of other export products, services and opportunities that abound in regional Australia. Automotive components, aeronautics, textile and construction products, Internet technologies, and tourism and education services are just some of the regional outputs creating and fulfilling demand in international markets.

The National Action Plan for Salinity and Water Quality (NAP) has become a commitment of $1.4 billion over seven years for applying regional solutions to salinity and water quality problems. The aim is for all levels of government, community groups, individual land managers and local businesses to work together in tackling salinity and improving water quality. The NAP represents an evolution in Australian natural resource management because it builds on the success of initiatives like the first phase of the Natural Heritage Trust (NHT) On 3 November 2000, the Council of Australian Governments (COAG) endorsed to target some of our worst affected areas (see the COAG communique This process for enhancing the management of our natural resources started with the release of a discussion paper for four months from December 1999 to March 2000 (see Managing Natural Resource Management in Rural Australia for a Sustainable Future ).

There will be a fundamental shift in the Trust towards more strategic investment. The model for regional investment under the extension of the Trust will be based on that used for the NAP , including bilateral and regional partnership agreements, investment against accredited regional plans, and the provision of foundation and priority funding. The Trust will have three overarching objectives.

The Council was established in 1984 as the peak Aboriginal land and heritage body in the region. The vision statement of the GLSC is "to consult with and effectively represent Aboriginal people within its region, particularly with regard to the achievement of meaningful native title outcomes as well as other land justice initiatives, while performing its functions under the Native Title Act 1993" (GLSC Annual Report 2002-2003 p.16). The GLSC was re-recognised as the native title representative body for an area that extends from Wiluna (on the edge of the Great Central Desert) to Esperance on Australia's south coast on 1 July 2000. The GLSC also has jurisdiction over the sea adjacent to its south coast boundary, extending to the edge of Australia's Exclusive Economic Zone.

View all titles in this topic Hot New Articles by Topic Automotive Sports Top Articles Ever by Topic Automotive Sports As the population clock winds down: indicative effects of population ageing in Australia's states and territories Journal of Population Research Nov, 2002 by Natalie Jackson Although there are many excellent studies of Australia's regional demography, these largely focus on individual regions, that is individual states and territories, and concern subregional distribution and migration. Few have examined, in comparative terms, what the combined effects of births, deaths, and migration mean for regional differences in the speed of ageing and onset of natural decline, or the associated social, economic, and political implications (see Hugo 1999; Felmingham, Jackson and Zhang 2002). Reflecting this deficit, most considerations of population ageing in Australia have a strong national focus, with the media regularly reporting that, for example, 'Australia's population of workforce age will rise until 2015 and stay constant after that' (Steketee 2001: 11). Such pronouncements ignore the implications of the marked differences in this indicator projected for each state and territory.

Author details Abstract Objectives: To analyse temporal trends and geographical variations in testosterone prescribing in Australia. Design and setting: An analysis of testosterone prescribing over the past 11 years according to products and region, determined by Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme (PBS) expenditure in Australian states and territories. Main outcome measure: Patterns of monthly PBS expenditure on injectable, oral and implantable testosterone products from 1 January 1991 to 30 December 2001, classified by state or territory. Results: Conclusion: The two striking upsurges in testosterone prescribing despite no convincing new evidence to justify them appear to reflect promotional activity to prescribe testosterone for older men, rather than overcoming the underdiagnosis of androgen deficiency related to pituitary or testicular disease in younger men. The curtailments after the introduced restrictions to PBS prescribing for older men without overt androgen deficiency were partial and temporary, suggesting that such regulatory barriers are only partly successful in counteracting the commercial and populist pressure driving excessive testosterone prescribing. Professional and community education is needed for appropriate diagnosis of genuine androgen deficiency in younger men, while discouraging unproven testosterone treatment for ageing men.

It highlights significant actions for each jurisdiction and provides information on funding and future trends. This paper is one of a number of case studies and research papers commissioned as background to Mapping Australia's Science and Innovation System. On this page Abstract Authors Publication Details Topics Covered ... Availability Abstract Since the latter part of the 1990âs State and Territory Governments have become strategic investors in their science and innovation systems. This represents a change in the long-standing practice of investing in only the elements of the research base necessary to support their direct responsibilities of resource development, public health and the environment. This report seeks to identify the main features of science and innovation in each jurisdiction. It includes an investigation of the main drivers of investment, key instruments in innovation and commercialisation, science and innovation linkages between the states and territories, linkages to Commonwealth programmes, support provided for science and innovation in the regions, examples of local government activities relating to science and innovation and how each State or Territory encourages cooperation in international science and technology.

They include MARC country and geographic area codes for states and territories in Australia requested by the National Library of Australia. From 1972 until the adoption of USMARC as the national standard in 1991, Australia had its own MARC specification, AUSMARC, that included more specific country codes for states and territories. The National Library of Australia has continued to use these more specific codes in its national bibliographic database for the ability to retrieve data by state and territory jurisdiction. Codes are available at this level for similar jurisdictions in the United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom.
