Cotton Plenty of thrills when picking kicks off ‘motorX’ comes to town across the region By HARRIET GILMORE PICKING for the 2024 cotton season has kicked-off across the region in the past few weeks, with varying results and yields anticipated after a patchy and unpredictable season. Cotton Australia CEO, Adam Kay, said the crop results across Australia are looking positive considering the predictions last September of an El Nino dry weather climate event. “Our growers were expecting a long hot and dry summer, forcing a crop revision below four million bales,” Mr Kay said. “The rains across our largest growing areas, were very welcome and now we are expecting at least 4.5 million bales which will result in more than $3.6 billion for the Australian economy, much of which will flow back into rural and regional communities,” he added. This season, close to 480,000 green hectares of cotton was planted across the country, predominantly in NSW and Queensland.

Flying high! Hundreds lined Victoria Oval on Monday afternoon for a free motocross show supported by the Warren Youth Foundation. PHOTO: WARREN STAR. By HARRIET GILMORE THERE were plenty of thrills for hundreds of local spectators on Monday afternoon when three professional motorcross performers put on a free show at Victoria Oval. Visiting as part of a tour of western NSW, Warren was the second stop on Aussie FMX’s, one of Australia’s top professional motorcross teams, circuit after a performance in Nyngan on Monday morning. Freestyle motocross, or “FMX” as it’s known in the industry, is one of the fast-

est-growing sports for participants and spectators in Australia. The local crowd was thrilled with tricks, stunts and jumps during the 90-minute show with riders jumping almost 10 metres in the air across a length of more than 20 metres using a jump and landing ramp on the back of their truck. Brought to town thanks to the support of the Warren Youth Foundation, the show not only showcased incredible stunts by the performers but also set to inspire

young bush kids. Kelly Sinclair, Executive Officer of the Warren Youth Foundation was thrilled with the day. “Today’s motocross event was awesome!” Kelly said after the show on Monday afternoon. “It was a great chance for everyone to come together and have a good time with their families. “Thanks to the NSW Office of Regional Youth and the Royal Flying Doctors, the event was completely free, so people of all ages

could join in on the fun. “The Fire and Rescue team was also there with their hazmat van, giving out free goodies, and the RFDS put on a free BBQ. Dipping Dots was there too, selling their yummy ice cream. “A big shoutout to everyone who helped make today’s event a total success! It was an amazing time, and I’m sure everyone who went will remember it for a long time.”

Two members of the Warren SES team, joined in the search for a missing woman from Hermidale last week. PHOTOS: WARREN SES By HARRIET GILMORE TWO volunteers from Warren SES helped in the successful search to locate a missing woman near Hermidale last week. The woman. 24-year-old Grace Kiss, was last seen at an 32,000ha (80,000 acre) property on Kallara Road, about 15km south west of Hermidale, about 10pm on Sunday, April 7. When she was unable to be locat-

ed or contacted, she was reported missing to officers attached to Central North Police District, who commenced inquiries to locate her. Warren SES Unit members, Glenn Midgley and John Quarrie, joined volunteers from the Coonamble and Cobar SES, as well as the NSW Police Rescue squad, local officers, the NSW Police K9 unit, an RFS helicopter, and dozens of locals on motorbikes, quad-bikes, and on foot, to search the remote property on Tuesday, April 9.

Following the search, inquires and an appeal for assistance, Ms Kiss was located at about 9pm that evening. A spokesperson from the Warren SES, said he understood the missing woman had made her way back to the homestead during the night on Tuesday April 9. “An excellent result,” he said. NSW Police said in a statement, the police would like to thank the media and community for their assistance after the Ms Kiss was located.

Farmers, gardeners, watch out, Aust plague locusts, are about! FAITH MATTERS

Watch-out, locusts are about! There have been a number of recent reports of increasing numbers of Australian plague locusts in the district, with the Local Lands Service reminding landholders to remain vigilant and report any activities of the serial pest immediately. PHOTO: LLS.

By HARRIET GILMORE PRODUCERS are being reminded on the importance of monitoring and reporting locusts, after an increase in activity recently. Central West Local Lands Service (LLS) have received a number of reports of Australian plague locusts in the area and urged the community to be on the look-out for signs of their activity. The Australian plague locust can be identified by the dark spots on the tips of their hind wings and distinctive red hindleg shanks. This species is also one of three “notifiable locust species” under the Biosecurity Act 2015, which means that landholders and managers are legally-obligated to report any suspected occurrence or activity as these pest species can devastate crops and pastures, causing major environmental and agricultural damage. Lands Service Biosecurity and Emergency Management Director, Andrew Mulligan, said that his team had received a number of reports of plague locusts in the district adding that it was vital that producers be on the lookout and report any instances of sightings. “Local Lands Service staff can then conduct property visits or inspections, just to gain an understanding of what the locusts are up to, and then also talk about methods of control options as well,” Mr Mulligan said. “Most importantly, we are asking landholders to remain

vigilant for signs of plague locusts, and then call the LLS to report and ask for any advice and ideas for controls for this locust,” he added. Early detection is the key for preventing widespread plague conditions, Mr Mulligan said. “If landholders report early, we can supply them with control methods to prevent the pest from building up in high numbers so they don’t swarm and move on to other areas. The sooner we get the reports, the sooner we can prevent swarming activities,” he emphasised. The current increase in activity is a normal occurrence for NSW, added Mr Mulligan, with the numbers at this stage not considered overly-high in regard to the amount of reports and the amount of activity. “But like all plague locust outbreaks, it’s just really important to keep an eye on the numbers building, whether you’re grazing or cropping,” he added. Mr Mulligan suggests that landholders who do notice evidence of these pests species on their land, should make note of where they are congregating and laying their eggs so that they can go back and monitor that area during spring and summer when the eggs will be hatching. Lands Services warns that, if left unmanaged, locusts can cause major damage to vegetation, crops, pastures, home gardens, sporting fields and parks. They can also swarms over large distances, leading to large economic losses for affected landholders, land managers, the community, and regional economies.

Faithfulness By MICHAEL CAMPBELL FAITHFULNESS always takes priority over faith. Let me explain. Remember that story in the Bible, where Abraham offers his son Isaac as a sacrifice. God commanded, Abraham obeyed – but he was not a robot. He wrestled with the idea of it, even as he walked with his son to the mountain. When he left camp, on the final day, he said to the servants who travelled with him, “Stay here with the donkey while I and the boy go over there. We will worship and then we will come back to you.” Abraham was not expecting to be alone when he returned. He reasoned: this test cannot void God’s promise. What Abraham does cannot override what God has promised: “your offspring will be counted

through Isaac.” Sure enough – The Angel of the Lord stops him, provides a ram to take Isaac’s place – a resurrection of sorts. He says, “Now I know that you fear God, because you have not withheld from me your son, your only son.” Isaac was never at risk, because God is committed to His promises. God’s faithfulness takes priority over everything we do, including faith. We trust in God’s faithfulness. So much so, if Abraham had lived to see Jesus die on a cross, he would have said, “Now I know that God loves me (and my children), because He has not withheld from me His Son, His only son.” The story of Isaac’s resurrection is found in Genesis 22. The explanation is found in Hebrews 11:17-19.

“Born and bred” local, Fred, now at the helm of new Elders branch By HARRIET GILMORE NO-ONE knows the central west, like a local! Manager of the new Elders Warren branch — driving the renowned national agribusiness’ local return after more than 30 years — is district born-and-bred manager, Fred Langby. Fred, who now runs both the Trangie and the new Warren branch said at the official opening, that he’d had an underlying desire to open a store in town, jumping into action when the old NAB building became vacant last year. Warren is an extremely important agriculture area, Fred believes, with the new outlet — joining the established branches in Trangie, Nyngan, and Coonamble — now completing the missing link in their network of stores. “There’s no losers here,” Fred said. “I mean it’s the farmers themselves who are going to have stronger competition and stronger options here now,” he added. Fred revealed that, when the NAB branch closed down, he approached Warren Shire

Councillor, Andrew Brewer about the building, considering it the perfect opportunity and location for the new store. Seven short months later, the new branch is open. Fred said that he was thrilled to be back working in Warren, having started his career here in 1996 with Ag N Vet. The Warren Elders branch will offer a range of products and services to assist with agronomy, crop protection, seed and fertiliser and animal health. They’ll also offer livestock and wool production support and sales, real estate services and fi nance. “We’re really looking at listening to what they [customers] want. “We have a whole gamut of agribusiness products supported by a strong team,” he revealed. Fred is supported by two full time staff at the Warren branch, Hilary Yabsley, from Girilambone and Meg Rosenbaum, who relocated to Warren from Dubbo for the position. “Loma Evan will backstop my animal health. “We have a strong network of state team, based in Dub-

bo, and we’ll grow the local team as required,” he said The team of three will be supported by neighbouring branch staff in Trangie, Nyngan, Dubbo and Coonamble. “Kevin Webber will join at the end of the year as Wool and Livestock agent. “We’ll just be looking to meet the needs of our customers and what they would like to see here,” Fred revealed. The branch held an official opening celebration event last Tuesday with more than 120 locals and visitors attending. Fred said it was a great afternoon with the turn-up a very positive response from the Warren community. Farm and Rural Supplies Specialist for the new Branch, Meg Rosenbaum, said that the new store’s opening is a good sign for the local agribusiness economy. “We’re so excited to have launched our branch in Warren and get such great support from our clients and the Warren community,” Ms Rosenbaum said. “We’re eager to explore the opportunities out here and continue to develop strong relationships with existing and prospective clients.” she concluded.

Cotton picking kicks off across the region

Cotton picking is underway across the region with Cotton at ‘Strathern’. Yields are expected to be varied across the Macquarie Valley but early classing has shown signs surprisingly good yields so far. PHOTO: BEN THOMAS. of great quality. From page 1 Cotton Info Regional Extension Officer, Amanda Thomas, said, that locally, this season there was a total of 38,340 hectares, including 791 hectares of dryland (green hectares) planted. “The season had a tough start with a dry winter impacting seed bed preparation and some cooler temps at the

start impacting the early season vigour,” Ms Thomas said. The crop had caught-up by Christmas time, and we were certainly ahead of where were thought we would be at the start,” she added. Due to a wetter than expected summer, water use was generally lower than predicted with on average

around 380mm in crop rainfall occurring via storms throughout the season. “Defoliation conditions have been very good, and the crops have experienced a really good finish which should translate to some exceptional crops around the valley. “The early yields are quite varied but, in general, they

are sitting on a pretty good average, and we hope it will continue as more cotton is harvested,” she added. So far with the harvest, things are looking good, Ms Thomas said. It’s a bit too early to say on overall yields, as the gins are still getting started, but early classing, has shown signs of great quality, she said.

Locals beware! Driveway scammers on the prowl By HARRIET GILMORE

Congratulations to Adalyn McAlary, winner of our Taronga Western Plains Zoo family pass. A big thank-you to all who entered. It was an extremely tough job judging all of your wonderful animals.

Before the accident she was a top female rider and told spectators the sport is not just for the boys, and there are so many opportunities these days for female riders.

LOCAL residents are being warned to be wary of potential scammers offering to lay bitumen or gravel driveways for a low fee, after a number of reported incidents in the region this week. Orana Mid-Western Police District, posted a warning on Facebook last week, after reports of scammers approaching homes and properties in Dubbo and surrounding areas, offering to lay bitumen or gravel driveways at a discounted rate. The scammers claim that the low cost is due to excess material being leftover from a job nearby,

with NSW Police warning that the fi nal job was either performed poorly, or not at all. On Monday, April 15, a number of Warren and Nevertire residents reported similar situations. One property owner located on the Bundemar Road just outside of Warren, reported two males in a white vehicle, with either an English or Irish accent, who had approached their home offering to grade and lay hot mix (bitumen) on their driveway for free. The two allegedly said that only a small payment was required to pay for the hot mix, which had supposedly been left-over from work being done on the

Trangie-Collie Road. The residents declined the offer, suspecting something suspicious, and said they planned to share CCTV footage of the suspects and their vehicle with Police. Police are encouraging members of the public to be vigilant when engaging in contractors that lay driveways, suggesting that they ask for a written quote and to check the business’ details.

Political News & Opinion COULTON’S ULTON’S CATCH TCH UP Comment ment by K COULTON, MARK ral Member Federal arkes for Parkes

Big week out west I SPENT last week on a big road trip, visiting many of my western communities, including Warren, Cobar, Wilcannia, Menindee, Broken Hill, and Nyngan. On this trip, I caught-up with each of the councils in these towns to discuss a range of local issues. I also met up with a number of constituents, community groups, and various other organisations. One of the highlights of the week, was my visit to Klondyke Range Complex — a military-grade testing facility located on approximately one million acres of uninhabited land about 130 kilometres north of Wilcannia. Able to accommodate a diverse range of testing and live-fi ring capabilities, there’s no other testing range in Australia like it, making it a unique asset for the Parkes electorate.

Construction on Broken Hill’s new library begins I WAS also thrilled to join Broken Hill City Mayor, Councillor Tom Kennedy and General Manager, Jay Nankivell, in Broken Hill last week for the turning of the fi rst sod for the city’s new library development. This project has been a long time coming, and I’m proud to have helped secure $8.7 mil-

lion under the former Coalition Government’s Building Better Regions Fund, to go towards Broken Hill’s CBD revitalisation. Having a modern library is a key part of attracting families to town. A library is more than just books; it’s a meeting place, a cultural and educational centre, and an important community facility, and this project will provide a wonderful asset that the people of Broken Hill will be able to enjoy for years to come. I look forward to seeing the development come to life over the coming months.

Grants benefitting local community groups LAST week, it was wonderful to catch-up with a number of recipients of Round Eight of the former Coalition Government’s Stronger Communities Programme (SCP). In Cobar, I met up with members of the Cobar Pony Club, which received a $7499 grant to purchase a new lawnmower. This has made it much easier for local volunteers to keep the Pony Club grounds neat and tidy, for the safety of horses and riders. The Cobar Roosters Rugby League Club, was also awarded $11,500 to rebuild the ticket booth and refurbish the toilet block and change rooms. This has significantly improved the ground’s facilities, making it much more welcoming for the hundreds of rugby league fans who attend home games throughout the football season. Meanwhile, Menindee Charities Incorporated, received $14,125 to replace the “Op Shop’s” old tile flooring, with new heavy duty-lino, which is safer and easier to clean, as

Federal Member for Parkes, Mark Coulton toured Maari Ma Health’s new Wilcannia Health and Wellbeing Centre, which will be officially opened this week. The former Federal Coalition Government, provided funding for the construction of this new purpose-built facility. well as paint the walls, so it now looks less like the butcher shop it once was, and more like a welcoming store. It’s these grants that allow groups like Menindee Charities to donate their profits to organisations that directly benefit locals, without having to dip into what little savings they have. In fact, while I was there, the volunteers donated $1000 to Menindee Health Service for upgraded beds, which wouldn’t have been possible, if they had to fund the store upgrades themselves.

More overseas workers to help fill job vacancies I’M pleased that a new and expanded Orana Designated Area Migration Agreement

(DAMA) has been reached between the Federal Government and Regional Development Australia (RDA) Orana. The Orana DAMA enables employers to sponsor skilled overseas workers in specified industries in our region that are currently experiencing critical skill and labour shortages. Previously covering just the Orana region, the DAMA has been expanded to include the Central West, Murray, Riverina and Southern Inland regions — a further 41 Local Government Areas — which now covers more than 60 per cent of NSW. Businesses across this area will now also have access to overseas workers from 129 occupations, up from 65 previously. This is very positive news for those businesses that are in desperate need of people to fi ll

positions but were fi nding the original DAMA guidelines too specific to sponsor overseas workers. They’ll now have more flexibility to fi nd potential employees from overseas to fi ll the skills shortage that we’re experiencing throughout regional NSW.

I have long been an advocate for the DAMA, because I believe that our regional areas, won’t reach their full potential while we’ve got positions vacant. One of the biggest issues currently facing our region is the labour shortage, with job vacancies across a range of different occupations, from hospitality and retail to trades and farmers, school teachers and medical professionals. I’m hopeful these changes, will bring more workers to our region to fi ll these vacancies.

On the market? Concern over the future of Dubbo saleyards By HARRIET GILMORE FUTURE of one of Australia’s largest livestock selling centres is up in the air, with concerns it could be shut down or introduce huge price hikes, if a proposal to sell or lease the facility goes ahead. Dubbo Regional Council, which owns the Dubbo Regional Livestock Markets (DRLM), recently passed a motion seeking Expressions of Interest for the possible sale or lease of the centre, leaving many across the Central West reeling. However, Dubbo Mayor, Councillor Mathew Dickerson, has said that legislative and regulatory changes, mean that the status quo at the facility, cannot continue as it has up until now. The Dubbo facility is considered Australia’s largest selling centre, in terms of the combined volume of sheep and cattle sold through the facility. Last year, it was reported the centre handled more than 1.1 million sheep and 156,000 cattle, making it NSW’s top saleyard for cattle and third for sheep.

Reports from the Dubbo Stock and Station Agents, an organisation comprising of the 13 selling agents that operate at the saleyard, said the facility brought in more than $3.3 million to the Dubbo Regional Council in the 2022/23 fi nancial year. Malcolm Kater from Egelabra, who is a major supplier of prime cattle and sheep to the Dubbo saleyards, said he was unable to understand why a facility like the DRLM would be sold, if it is profitable. “The question needs to be asked, if there is a revenue issue or budget ‘black hole’ within Council, that is forcing a review of the saleyards, that will culminate in the decision being made to sell or lease it,” Mr Kater said. “You don’t sell a cow in full milk, so why should the saleyards be any different?” he asked. Dubbo stock and station agent Paul Dakin from AWN Lord, is concerned that producers in the region could be stung with fee increases of up to 100 per cent or more, if the

facility is privatised. “The sale or lease of the facility will only end in heartburn due to increased costs to cover the next layer of ownership or management,” Mr Dakin said. “This process is being driven by someone within the Council ranks, elected or staff, as a review of this substantial nature is not taking place at other similar Council-run facilities,” he added. Mr Dakin said that Dubbo Regional Livestock Market (DRLM) is a premier livestock marketing facility that was given to the Dubbo Council unencumbered by the Talbragar Shire, and now generates a large economic benefit to the local community and ratepayers of the Dubbo region. He said the substantial capital on the Council balance sheet of this facility, along with the ongoing economic benefits, brought the motives of such a review into question. “The privatisation of similar selling facilities in NSW had proven to cost stakeholders more to operate with the same

outcomes,” Mr Dakin said. Producers in the Central West region are being encouraged by advocates to approach Council and their elected representatives with their concerns. “If this facility is not already sold, producers must be aware that fees may increase by double, as has happened in other centres who faced the same shift to privatisation as we are,” Mr Dakin said. “All ratepayers should be alarmed at the speed of which this process to sell or lease the facility has been managed by Council, rather than being presented during the upcoming election, where a democratic outcome is achieved and greater thought and consideration can be given to such a large decision for the region.” According to Dubbo Regional Council, it costs around $5.5 million a year to operate and maintain the saleyards and, although the facility generates income through usage fees, it is a “business” which could better be run by a private operator.

Dubbo Mayor, Councillor Mathew Dickerson, said Council was yet to make a fi nal decision on the future of the yards. “The only decision undertaken by councillors, is that we must ensure all our different business units are run as efficiently as possible,” Cr Dickerson said. “I can’t stress enough that no decision has been made for the future of the saleyards, but with changes in legislation and further advice Council has received, leaving the status quo is not a viable option,” he added. Whatever happens, the current model for operating the facility, will need to evolve to remain viable, Cr Dickerson explained. “If Council does retain ownership, the operating model will have to change,” Cr Dickerson said. “An in-section across the State, shows the main saleyards are either council owned and operated, council owned and leased, or privately owned,” he concluded.

ROY’S OY’S OUND-UP ROUND-UP Comment mment by ROY Y BUTLER, te Member State for Barwon

G’day folks, THE cooler weather is finally here, daylight saving time has ended, and the year is already more than one third over! After the frantic burst of activity that usually marks the start of the year, Parliament now doesn’t sit until May, by which time things will be all about the budget, which is coming in June. I will keep you posted about any developments. In case you haven’t heard, I am on an overseas study tour. There are some interesting things being done overseas that are applicable to Western NSW, or that we can learn from in some way, and the best way to properly understand something is to see it in person.

Commonwealth Study Tour EACH year, members of the Commonwealth Parliamentary Association (CPA), who pay a subscription, can apply to go on a study tour of overseas Commonwealth countries and other nations outside the Commonwealth. For me, I get one trip, which is available to all members in their second term. With Parliament not sitting till May, and with no life-threatening crisis happening in the electorate, I saw the chance to take that study tour to see a range of things that I think will be beneficial to Barwon. I left Australia last week and I am visiting several countries, to learn about their parliaments and investigate how other governments and their people do things and if that could help us in the electorate. My tour started in Singapore, where I went to better understand their city/rooftop agriculture. The Singaporeans make use of limited space and resources to help feed their densely populated city, to break the dependence on imports. I looked at a commercial “Urban Farm” attached to a hotel in Singapore. I also went to a Community Garden in Tiong Bahru, that is supported by local government but is operated by volunteers. My last site visit was Edible Garden City on the 51st floor of the CapitaSpring building in

Wednesday, April 17, 2024 Local News for the Warren Shire WARREN STAR Singapore’s CBD. Samuell from Edible Garden City has built 280 gardens over 12 years. He spent an hour showing me around and explaining the history. It’s an international team with Stella from the UK as the farm manager. Everything is composted on site and recycled into the garden. Samuell was very keen to show me Australian varieties that are thriving including fi nger limes. Greening our cities and CBD will happen over time, it would be great if there is a focus on edible plantings instead of just ornamental plants. I have also been to Thailand where they are doing amazing things with agritourism at places like the Hang Tueng Farmstay and workshop Chiang Mai, an educational facility just outside Chiang Mai. There they have diversified from just farming, and now provide accommodation and hands-on workshops for people of all ages. Barwon already has some excellent farm stay accommodation; it provides another income stream to landholders. Having a handson approach can help people understand where their food comes from and appreciate the effort that goes into producing it. It would be great to see kids from Sydney and other non-rural areas have the opportunity to go and spend some time on a working farm. Distance would be a problem, but a bit of time on a bus could be good patience training. In Malaysia, I will tour the Parliament and also meet with its minister for International Affairs and International Trade, to better understand our trade relationship with that part of south-east Asia. In Italy, I will be visiting to look at and learn from their domestic manufacturing and agriculture. I will seek to understand how their government supports these industries and see what might be done for producers and manufacturers in NSW. In Canada, I will visit the G3 Grain terminal site, which transfers bulk grain from road or rail to transport shipping. While in Canada, I will also pay a visit to their Parliament in Ottawa. It is a massive tour; I will continue to share what I am learning along the way. I will also be submitting a fi nal written report, which will be added to the Parliament of NSW library as a resource. This is how Australia has been able to adapt and grow in the past, learning from the rest of the world and applying the best of what has been

learnt to our own situation.

Virtual Fencing Submissions AT the last session of Parliament, a bill came up for debate to amend the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act to allow virtual stock fencing, for the purposes of confi ning, tracking, and monitoring livestock. Introduced by my colleague, Phil Donato in February this year, after debate, the Bill was referred to the Investment Industry and Regional Development Committee (IIRDC), of which I am the chair. The role of a Parliamentary Committee is to thoroughly investigate a given topic, or piece of legislation, that has been brought before Parliament, conducting hearings, inviting members of the public and experts in the field to make submissions or present evidence. The committee then reports its fi ndings to Parliament, allowing them to make more informed decisions. The IIRDC will therefore look closely at the key issues with virtual fencing, considering all the evidence that is presented, for-and-against, and prepare a report that will better inform parliament. The committee is therefore inviting submissions on the potential impacts of the Bill on farming, the environment and animal welfare.

Kapooka March Out LAST week, I had the great privilege of attending my son, Gabe, marching-out from Kapooka Army Training Base at Wagga Wagga. This was a proud moment for me, it took me back to 1995, when I marched-out from IET (Initial Employment Training) in Brisbane, and my Dad was there. I even tried to recreate a photo I have from that time — after seeing that photo online, a few people have remarked on the likeness between the 18-year-old me and my son. The poor young fella. My family has a proud military history, my father served in the Korean War, was at the battle of Kapyong, but was classified TPI (totally and permanently incapacitated) after returning home. My grandfather served in both World War I and World War II, adjusting his age both times to get in. My father died in 2003, but he would have been proud to see his grandson following in the family tradition.

Roundtable on jobs in the North-west region

EVEN though I am overseas, my team is still on the ground in Barwon, representing me, wherever possible. Last week, members of my team were in Gunnedah, along with the Minister for Finance, Domestic Manufacturing and Government Procurement and Natural Resources, Courtney Houssos, at a roundtable discussion on the future of regional jobs and investment in the North-west region. There was a good roll-up from different sectors, including skills and training, local government, and mining and manufacturing. There was some discussion about the formation of a transition authority, which will help structure jobs post-mining; this Authority will be the eyes and ears of the State Government. I will work with the Minister to ensure it is an effective and well-resourced structure. Some issues raised that are seen as impediments to job creation and new investment, are the lack of amenities, health services, and education services, in the Northwest. It’s fantastic to see the Minister back out in the regions, hearing directly from the people who live and work there, and I hope to be able to throw in some more ideas about regional jobs and investment following my study tour.

Flexible Initiatives Trial in Menindee CHILDCARE is such a roadblock to population growth in regional towns. People who want to move with their family to the country, to take-up jobs, or to enjoy a tree change, are often deterred by the lack of childcare or flexible childcare options. That’s why it is great to hear the news that Menindee Children’s Centre has been selected as part of a Flexible Initiatives Trial, to be given funding to help expand its operations, to offer extended hours and more places better suited to local conditions. Menindee is one of 16 schools across the State that have been chosen for this trial. This preschool is one that offers a great environment for early learning, and expanding its operations will allow more flexibility in childcare arrangements for parents in Menindee. I look forward to seeing the results of the trial and the possibility that this could be rolled out to other parts of Barwon.

Queensland Carbon Capture plan A CARBON capture proposal by a mining corporation in

Next week’s edition will be published on Wednesday. Deadline is 12pm Monday.

Queensland, which intends to liquify Co2 waste and inject it into aquifers 2.5km underground into the Great Artesian Basin (GAB), is currently having its Environmental Impact Statement reviewed for approval. There is no evidence of this type of carbon capture being undertaken in a usable water source before. In that regard it is dangerously-experimental and could have dire consequences. During the drought, rather than evacuating, residents in towns in Barwon were able to access water from the GAB and stay in their homes. I want to be clear: groundwater should not be put at risk. While the decision to proceed with this proposal lies with Queensland, the GAB is incredibly-important to Barwon. Its aquifers sustain many communities, businesses, agriculture production, and unique ecosystems that live only in the GAB’s wetlands.

Select Committee on Remote, Rural and Regional Health THIS week, the Select Committee on Remote, Rural, and Regional Health, was visiting Broken Hill to take a look at the Royal Flying Doctors Service facility, as well as a tour of Broken Hill Base Hospital, followed by a discussion with senior hospital and LHD staff and a roundtable discussion with local health stakeholders. The Committee was also visiting the Wilcannia Multipurpose Service, for a tour and discussion with local staff, followed by a tour of Wilcannia Health and Wellbeing Centre. This Committee, chaired by colleague Dr Joe McGirr, the Member for Wagga Wagga, is examining the implementation of the recommendations of the Regional Health Inquiry.

Tell us about your community’s achievers EACH sitting week in Parliament, members can submit Community Recognition Statements to the Legislative Assembly. These statements, which can also be read out on the floor of Parliament, go into Hansard, the permanent record of parliamentary proceedings. Community Recognition Statements recognise those in our community who have done something great, done amazing charity work or have reached retirement or honours and awards. They can also be condolence motions.

RACING NG ORT REPORT By COLIN HODGES DUBBO trainer Connie Greig and Muswellbrook based rider Leandro Ribeiro continued their dominance on the circuit when combining on Saturday to win the 1400 metres Lane Cove Legends/Doug Allen Memorial Grenfell Picnic Cup with Valadyium. Frau Holle and Namarari led the Cup field to the halfway point where Celtic Harp ($2.20 favourite) moved up wide to attack. Meanwhile, Ribeiro was

Grenfell Picnics - raced Saturday April 13, 2024 biding his time and when given more rein in the straight Valadyium ($3.50) cruised to the front and won by over a length from the strong fi nishing Bush Warrior (Sebastian Galea, $6) with California August (Madison Wright, $2.80) burdened with a massive 78kg, a brave third. The first leg of a double for Connie Greig and Leandro Ribeiro was Better Judgement ($5.50) which led throughout from the outside barrier to defeat Alaskan Aura (Zara Lewis, $9) and Luscious (Madison Wright, $2.80) by over 4 lengths in the 1000 metres CL Commodities Grenfell Picnic Bracelet. The biggest fields at a picnic meeting for several years

saw emergencies declared in some races, including the 1200 metres Terry Bros Furniture & Bedding Class 2 Trophy Handicap won by the Ashley Gibson, Gilgandra trained Foxstorm. In an exciting fi nish, Foxstorm (Zara Lewis, $8) came from well back to score by a short half head from Pahang (Dylan Parrott, $4.40) with a nose to the third placed Far Too Hot (Madison Wright, $3 equal fav.). Madison Wright had earlier brought the Neil Osborne, Canberra trained debut maker Ima Dubawi ($2.50 fav.) from midfield to win the 1000 metres Mawhood’s IGA Maiden Plate from Jet Missile (Dylan Parrott, $3) and Red Card Ro-

Over the fi nal 300 metres Mayapple (Leandro Ribeiro, $1.80 fav.) and Thetis (Izzy Neale, $8) matched strides with Thetis eventually winning by a head while over five lengths away third was Radiant Glow (Zara Lewis, $3.80).

Thetis which won it’s fi rst race after 40 starts, is trained at Forbes by Peter Kirby who also trained the half-brother Hayne Plane to win five races, mainly over long distances.

Grenfell attracted a very good crowd and the unique array of prizes and bonuses was much appreciated by the owners, trainers and jockeys.

By HARRIET GILMORE A HUGE roll up of more than 130 players from across the district aged from six through to under 14s, took part in the fi rst junior rugby event for the Macquarie Emus on Friday evening. The “Friday Night Lights” get-togethers have proved extremely popular for the club, with the latest event attracting players for the Macquarie Emus from across the region, including from Warren, Nyngan, Nevertire, Tottenham, and Trangie, as well as teams from Narromine, Coonamble, and Gulargambone. Jo Noonan from the Mac-

quarie Emus said the most recent tournament was the biggest event to date for the club, and she was extremely pleased to see so many kids coming along, especially some of the older kids and so many girls joining in. “It was an unreal night,” Jo enthused. “We were thrilled with the success of the evening, which was well supported with players, supporters and volunteers from across the region,” she added. The wide age spread of the players was as important as the number, she explained. It was great to have so many older kids come along, and the

Under 14s were able to have a good few games. “What an amazing sight to see so many players enjoying the game of rugby.” The Friday evening models seems to be working, she believes, with the events well-attended every time they host them. “The kids really enjoy playing under the lights,” she said. It’s a fantastic atmosphere and a real novelty that many wouldn’t normally get the chance to do.” The event is as much to do with enjoyment, as skill and competition, she explained. “It’s a real social occasion and chance for kids to come

together, have some fun, and learn and grow their rugby skills. “Everyone shares players, if teams don’t have enough players, it’s all about giving everyone a run; the kids have a ball.” The Club was also grateful for the support from the community, for all of their help to put on the evening. “A special mention to our wonderful band of helpers that make these nights possible,” Jo said. “Thank-you to the Warren Rugby Club for all of their help setting up and manning the barbecue, our parents who assisted with the organisation of

teams, canteen and barbeque helpers, and a big thank you to Gular, Coonamble and Narromine for travelling to Warren,” she added. She also thanked local milk producer, Little Big Diary, which provided all the players with chocolate milks after the game. The next Friday Night Lights event will be held in Narromine in May with a range of gala days coming up, including one in Gulargambone early next month, Jo said. “We have a number of events locked in over the next few months,” Jo explained. So keep an eye on our socials for updates,” she concluded.

Bec’s hole-in-one, kicks-off new ladies golf for the year

Winner of the One One Seven Bakery Trophy Day, Sue Burke, runner-up, Christine Trudgett, with hole-in-one champ, Bec McKay. Contributed WARREN’S lady golfers were very excited to be back on the course after the long summer break and a wash-out of the fi rst games of the season. In more good news, Golf Club volunteers (and their lawn-mowers) have been very hard at work in the break as the course is in pristine condition and looking the best it’s ever looked. On Wednesday April 10, a group of 13 players took to the course in perfect conditions to play in the Ellerslie Lane Trophy Day, an 18-Hole Stableford. Faye Noonan came out on

Straight driver, Bec McKay with her hole-in-one prize.

top with 32 Stableford points, hot-on-her-tail, was Robyn Downey with 31 and, third, was Judy Ridley on 30, all very close. Golf balls went to Faye, Robyn, Judy, Tish, Linda McCutcheon, Josie, and Heather. Nearest-to-the-pin on the fourth, was won by Josie Cosgrove. A big “thanks” also went-out to the Storer family of Ellerslie Lane for supporting the golf and providing the prizes. Last Saturday was the One One Seven Bakery trophy day, an 18-hole stroke-play event and the March Medal fi rst round LGU.

A total of 12 ladies fronted up on the very warm autumn day to play in this event with some great scores, some ordinary scores, and some very dismal scores! Sue Burke, who hasn’t lost her touch or her swing, was the winner of the day with a score of 73, closely followed by Christine Trudgett with 74, and Barb Laws on 79. Golf balls went to Sue, Christine, Barb, Liz, and Rhonda. Sue was also the winner of the March medal and the nearestthe-pin on the 13th. Thanks also went to Lois from One One Seven Bakery for the prizes and support.

Highlight of the day however, was Bec McKay’s hole-inone on the 18th! This is a driveable 142-metre par 3, and she was fortunate to hit the perfect drive. From all accounts, the ball bounced and rolled onto the green. Her two partners, Sue and Lyn, couldn’t see the ball, and they all thought it had gone over the back and spent a while trying to fi nd it before they thought to look in the cup. Talk about a surprise! Bec said it was very special and, of course, a very memorable moment. A huge congratulations and well-done Bec. Upcoming events include

the Heather Druce and Faye Noonan Trophy Day, and 18Hole Stableford, and the Alison Payne trophy Day, an 18hole stroke-play and the April Medal second round LGU Goodwill plate. There will be some changes of trophy days that are in the 2024 programme, because of the cancelled rain days, so take note of the write-up in the paper each week just until we’ve caught-up. Quote of the week: When your shot has to carry over a water hazard, you can either use one more club or two more balls. — The Dirty Birdie
