Voters in the coming council elections will be able to check what candidates have to say via an internet webpage. But it’s up to candidates to provide the information. In a South Australian council election first the Local Government Association, with assistance from the State government, has produced a candidates webpage where all 1274 candidates for the November elections will have promotional space. LGA CEO, Wendy Campana, said at the very minimum the website would feature a photograph and a short profile of each candidate as furnished to the Electoral Commission SA with nomination papers. Candidates will also have the opportunity to go on-line and add relevant election material to complement the mandatory information,” Ms Campana said. Candidates had until 5pm yesterday (Tuesday) to register their candidate statements on the website www. lgcandidates.sa.gov.au “After that time the LGA will check statement contents to ensure they comply with the legislation,” Ms Campana said. A list of all candidates is also available on the LGA website - www.lga.sa.gov.au/ goto/elections

Rural Doctors Wo r k f r o c e A g e n c y (RDWA) has started work on a project designed to get more Australian trained doctors into rural areas of South Australia. The Rural Pathways project was launched last Friday by Health Minister, John Hill, at the RDWA annual general meeting. The project has been commissioned by Country Health SA. “We have invited organisations who influence and manage key components of doctor education and training,” said RDWA CEO LynPoole. Ms Poole said the response from these organisations had been terrific. Once the project has determined a model that will suit South Australia it is expected a pilot program will be undertaken.
