2.
That this House notes that:

That this House acknowledges the 300,000 people directly involved in the 850 awareness activities
across Australia, including 254 events being held in New South Wales.
Question put and passed.
3
18TH BIENNALE OF SYDNEY (Formal Business)
Mrs Maclaren-Jones moved, according to notice:
1.
That this House notes that:
(a)
the 18th Biennale of Sydney will be held from 27 June to 16 September 2012,
(b)
the Biennale of Sydney is a non-profit organisation that presents Australia’s largest and
most exciting international festival of contemporary visual art, and

the Biennale is held every two years, providing a public program of artist talks,
performances, forums, film screenings, family events, guided tours and exhibitions.

That this House acknowledges that, since the Biennale began in 1973, it has achieved critical
acclaim and international recognition, and been instrumental in creating Australia’s cultural
ambassadors and showcasing the work of local artists.

That this House notes that this year the Biennale of Sydney is presented in partnership with the Art
Gallery of New South Wales, the Museum of Contemporary Art and a number of outdoor

APPLICATION FOR LIQUOR LICENCE FOR ALDI, MT HUTTON (Formal Business)
Dr Kaye sought the leave of the House to amend private members’ business item no. 935 outside the
order of precedence by omitting paragraph 3.
No objection taken.
Leave granted.
1274
Legislative Council Minutes No. 112—Wednesday 17 October 2012
Dr Kaye moved, according to notice, as by leave amended:
1.
That this House notes that the supermarket chain ALDI has applied for a Packaged Liquor Licence
for their existing supermarket in Mount Hutton that is located within 100 metres of Mount Hutton
Public School.
2.
That this House notes that:
(a)
the Office of Liquor, Gaming and Racing has commissioned research into the social and
economic impacts of liquor licence density but the research is yet to be completed,
(b)
existing research, including that which is quoted by NSW Bureau of Crime Statistics and
Research, indicates that:
(i)
the existing high density of packaged liquor outlets is a contributory factor to the
high rate of alcohol-related violence in areas such as the Lake Macquarie suburbs of
Mt Hutton, Windale and Gateshead,
(ii)
an additional outlet would almost certainly add to the existing rate of alcohol-related
violence,
(c)
this House opposed an earlier proposal by Woolworths for a Packaged Liquor licence for a
BWS store in a similar location in Mount Hutton and that the organised campaign of the
local community highlighted the negative health and social impacts of another alcohol
outlet in the area,
(d)
the same serious concerns raised against the BWS apply equally to the ALDI proposal,
including matters expressed by NSW Health, and
(e)
the community’s ability to raise objections to this application was compromised by the lack
of a Lake Macquarie Council determination of the matter as the Council has already
approved the supermarket without the liquor outlet.
Question put and passed.
