Document - Report, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Commission, The first step : a report on the initial community consultations on the Royal Commission into Aboriginal Deaths in Custody, 1992
... Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Commission ...In October 1987, the Royal Commission into Aboriginal Deaths in Custody was established to find out why so many Aboriginal people were dying in prison - 99 between January 1980 and May 1989 alone. Since then, tragically, there have been another 25 deaths.The findings of the Royal Commission and its recommendations have been widely publicised since their release in May 1991. They catalogue the terrible history of dispossession and oppression of our people. The Commission makes 339 recommendations on how the past hurt and current disadvantage of the Aboriginal people can be redressed... The main themes to emerge not surprisingly, underline many of the issues raised in the Royal Commission's Final Report - the plight of families of the deceases, Aboriginal / police relations, the lack of access to land, substance abuse, appalling health, inadequate housing, and the pressing need to provide education and employment for our youth.41 p. ; 25 cm.In October 1987, the Royal Commission into Aboriginal Deaths in Custody was established to find out why so many Aboriginal people were dying in prison - 99 between January 1980 and May 1989 alone.

Photographs: Unions Ballarat building renovations 2018, 2018
... Messrs James and Piper ...The Ballarat Trades Hall building is located at 24 Camp Street, Ballarat. The foundation stone was laid in October 1887. (Architects were Messrs James and Piper and builders were Messrs Lietch and Outtrim.) Over several decades, the façade of the building has fallen into disrepair and was posing a safety risk. Thanks to Victorian heritage grants and ongoing public donations, refurbishment of the façade is currently underway by Troon Pty Ltd. The photos in this entry show the deterioration of the building and the progress in restoring it to its former state. Progress catalogued by date: 13 February 2018 - 1 photo 19 February 2018 - 1 photo 23 February 2018 - 1-6 photos 5 March 2018 - 1-5 photos 12 March - 1 photo 4 April 2018 - 1-6 photos 18 April 2018 - 1-7 photos 23 April 2018 - 1 photo. The top of our restored building starts to poke out as the scaffold comes down level by level - the rendered wash-coat colour looks fantastic in the sun - as close as we can get to the original 1887 colour.The Hall is a community hub in Ballarat as well as being the point of contact and activism for unions and unionists in the area. These photographs are a critical part of the building's history.Photographs of Ballarat Trades Hall renovations. btlc, ballarat regional trades and labour council, ballarat trades hall, building, building fund, james and piper, lietch and outtrim, troon pty ltd, building - resoration, heritage victoria, grants -

Work on paper - Paintings, Academy of Science, Canberra
... Grounds, Romberg and Boyd ...The Shine Dome is one of seven projects that the Royal Australian Institute of Architects has nominated to the World Register of Significant Twentieth Century Architecture. In 1956 six architects were invited to submit plans for the Academy of Science's new building in Canberra and the Academy's building design committee selected Grounds Romberg and Boyd's proposal designed by Roy Grounds. It features a shallow arcaded concrete dome, sheeted in copper and was one of a number of domed buildings that appeared around this time internationally, expressing the optimism of the post-war years. It perfectly reflected the Academy's ambition to champion excellence in Australian science and promote international scientific engagement. Paul Wallace, a well-known Melbourne renderer, drew this perspective of the proposed design, possibly for the competition submission, in 1956.Coloured perspective of the Academy of Science buiding in Canberra.Printed text on attached sticker, 'ACADEMY OF SCIENCE, CANBERRA / 1958 / Grounds, Romberg and Boyd, / Architects'.
