E-scooter trial extension to be considered at next week’s Council meeting

Source: New South Wales Ministerial News

Council will next week consider if the share hire e-scooter trial in Greater Bendigo should be extended for another 12 months.

The City of Greater Bendigo appointed Beam Mobility (Beam) following a public Request for Quote process to operate the trial until May 23, 2025 at no cost to the City.

The trial was developed in consultation with the City to assess the success of shared hire e-scooters as an alternative mode of transport for residents and visitors.

Beam has been operating a small trial area in urban Bendigo to provide better links between precincts and encourage a shift away from cars for shorter trips.

The purple e-scooters are only available for hire between 5am and 11pm, 7 days a week. The maximum speed limit is set at 20km/h, and 15km/h in some busy areas, and e-scooters are only allowed to ride on roads, bicycle lanes, and shared cycle paths in line with Victorian road rules.

It is illegal to ride e-scooters on footpaths and significant penalties apply. The Victorian Police enforce fines.

Manager Strategic Planning Anthony Petherbridge thanked community members and external stakeholders who provided valuable feedback about the trial.

“824 people contributed to our Let’s Talk Greater Bendigo survey and the results indicated mixed sentiment from the community with 66.88% expressing some level of dissatisfaction with the trial, 17.9 per cent offered solutions to improve the trial, 8.5 percent found it to be good and 6.6 per cent said it was excellent,” Mr Petherbridge said.

“The City also collaborated with internal and external stakeholder groups throughout the trial to improve it. They support the proposal for a trial extension with further recommendations in place. This includes expanding the area to include Golden Square, Long Gully and White Hills to align with shared walking/cycling networks. They also want to see improved operator patrols and a faster response to incidents if the trial extends.

“The trial demonstrated that e-scooters continue to have potential as an alternative transport option that is sustainable. However, community and stakeholder feedback has informed a set of recommendations.

“A 12-month trial extension in an expanded urban Bendigo is recommended with improved trial requirements. This would allow the share hire scheme’s full potential to be assessed over a larger area and incorporate important lessons from the initial trial. This phase may also explore integrating e-bikes and technological improvements for e-scooters to curb illegal footpath riding.”

The feedback collected through the survey and insights from key stakeholders has contributed to the overall evaluation of the trial in a Council report. It will be presented at the next Council meeting at The Capital on Monday May 19. 

Woman reported after road rage crash at Nailsworth

Source: New South Wales – News

A driver has lost her licence after a road rage crash on Main North Road, Nailsworth on Monday night.

Just before 10pm on Monday 12 May, police and emergency services were called to Main North Road, Nailsworth after a silver sedan crashed into and ruptured a fire hydrant.

Footage obtained from an eyewitness captured the collision.  The silver sedan also crashed into the side of a blue sedan, which did not stop at the scene, before colliding with the fire hydrant.

The blue sedan continued south on Main North Road.

Following investigations, a 21-year-old Para Hills woman, who was the driver of the silver sedan, was reported for driving in a manner dangerous to the public and issued with a 12-month instant loss of licence.  She will be summonsed to appear in court at a later date.

Anyone with information about the blue sedan or its driver is asked to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or online at www.crimestopperssa.com.au

A year and a half of annual real wages growth

Source: Australian Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister for Industry

New data released by the Australia Bureau of Statistics shows that annual real wages have grown for 18 months in a row under the Albanese Labor Government.

Under Labor, more Australians are working, earning more and keeping more of what they earn.

We’re really pleased with today’s figures which show annual real wages have now grown for six quarters in a row, after going badly backwards under the previous Liberal government and falling for the five quarters in the lead up to the 2022 election.

Australians voted for higher wages at the election, and that’s what today’s numbers show.

The wage price index grew 0.9 per cent in the March quarter 2025, to be 3.4 per cent higher through the year.

Real wages grew 1.0 per cent through the year to the March quarter 2025.

This is the strongest rate of annual real wage growth in five years.

Annual real wages have grown by more than 0.8 per cent for three quarters in a row, which is the longest consistent run of real wage growth in almost ten years above that rate.

Since we’ve come to Government average annualised nominal wages have been growing at 3.7 per cent, much higher than the 2.2 per cent under our predecessors.

The Government’s policies are driving strong and sustainable wage growth for workers.

We’re acting to boost wages, close the gender pay gap, deliver workplace relations reforms and secure pay rises for some of the lowest‑paid workers in our community. Our support for the lowest paid workers means minimum wage earners are now earning $143.30 per week more than when we came to government.

At the same time, we’ve overseen the creation of more than 1 million jobs in our first three years, a record for a Parliamentary term and stronger employment growth than any major advanced economy.

This means under Labor real wages are up, unemployment is low, inflation is down, interest rates have started to fall, every taxpayer is getting a tax cut and living standards are growing again in our economy.

This is the result of the remarkable progress Australians have made together in the economy over the past three years.

We know the job isn’t finished because Australians are still under pressure and we know we will be faced with more global economic volatility and unpredictability over the next three years, not less.

Getting wages moving again is one of the ways we can help households right around Australia prepare for more uncertainty and instability in the global economy.

We know that productivity growth is the key for strong and sustainable wages growth in the long term and that’s why our five‑pillar productivity agenda across technology, human capital, energy, care and competition is so important.

Statement on ministerial appointment

Source: Workplace Gender Equality Agency

I am honoured to have been sworn in as Federal Minister for Emergency Management, and to be reappointed as Minister for Regional Development, Local Government and Territories.

In my maiden speech to Parliament, I committed to supercharging the response to bushfire recovery, after parts of our community in Eden-Monaro experienced some of the worst fires our country has ever seen.

I am incredibly proud to be part of a government that is serious about reducing disaster risk, and strengthening our emergency management and disaster recovery capabilities.

Under the leadership of Minster Watt and Minister McAllister, the Albanese Government has launched the National Emergency Management Agency and the Disaster Ready Fund, funded Disaster Relief Australia, established our National Emergency Management Stockpile, and expanded our National Aerial Firefighting capabilities.

We have delivered all 15 Commonwealth-led recommendations from the Royal Commission into National Natural Disaster Arrangements, and we continue to boost the disaster resilience of our telecommunications networks.

I am humbled to continue the critical work of the Emergency Management portfolio alongside Assistant Minister Wilson, including progressing the National Messaging System.

I also look forward to continuing to work with Minister King to strengthen the local government sector, which is not only on the front line of disaster response and recovery, but responsible for many services our communities rely on. 

I am proud to have brought local government back to the table as a trusted delivery partner – including at National Cabinet and through two successful Australian Council of Local Government forums – while increasing local road funding for every council and launching transparent grant programs that every community can apply for.

We remain committed to supporting councils, including through our response to the Parliamentary Inquiry into Local Government Sustainability, which we will finalise this term.

I have always lived in our regions and love the quality of life it affords us, which is why I will continue standing up for Eden-Monaro and regional Australia to ensure we get our fair share.

ATO warns against websites sharing fake news on superannuation preservation age

Source: New places to play in Gungahlin

The Australian Taxation Office (ATO) is warning the community about a proliferation of dodgy websites sharing fake news about changes to the superannuation preservation rules and withdrawal rules starting on 1 June.

ATO Deputy Commissioner Emma Rosenzweig confirmed the maximum preservation age (the age when you can access your superannuation savings on retirement) is 60 for anyone born from 1 July 1964.

Taxpayers who have questions about the legitimacy of tax information should refer to the ATO’s website or speak to their registered tax professional if they have one.

Quotes attributable to ATO Deputy Commissioner Emma Rosenzweig:

‘This is classic fake news. Always consider the source of information you see, and if in doubt go to trusted sources such as the ATO website www.ato.gov.au, your super fund website, your registered tax agent or licensed financial adviser.’

‘Beware of websites that might be trying to harvest your personal information such as your TFN, identity details or myGov login details.’

‘Think twice before acting on information heard from third-party sources, including non-official websites or on social media.’

‘Be cautious about ‘free expert’ tax advice. If you are going to approach someone to help you manage your tax affairs, ensure they are a practising lawyer or registered with the Tax Practitioners Board. You can check if a tax professional is registered on the Tax Practitioner’s Board websiteExternal Link.’
