In 30 years working in multiple governments of all different persuasions and abilities, the TasGov political and administration systems were the most difficult to work with with such heavily entrenched resistance to any form of change and innovation - risk aversion was there but it was fear of risk!

Tasmanian parliamentary review defends university’s core functions against corporatisation. - Graeme Turner
Finally. Someone in government gets it. The Tasmanian Parliament’s Select Committee’s report on the operation of the University of Tasmania is both scathing and historic.

Yesterday, the Australian newspaper said Tasmania has banned trans women from women’s prisons. Today, the Hobart Mercury reported that’s not true and the TasGov continues to allow trans women to be held in the state’s women’s prison.

Some groups continue to use extreme examples to seek blanket bans on trans women, this time in Tasmanian women’s prison.
The current TasGov case-by-case approach is a sensible one that protects all women. Equality Tasmania has asked the Government to maintain and develop it.
