                     Politics is in the air this winter
                     with Liverpool facing not just
                     the Federal election in July, but
                     also our Council elections on
                     September 10.

who might come throwing money at Liverpool during
their campaigns like you see them doing for other
areas.                                                                           the local issues that Liverpool Council is actually

MEET YOUR CANDIDATES WHO ARE STANDING FOR COUNCIL
Understanding Liverpool Council is Local Government
as opposed to Federal and State levels of government
is important to know when people vote on September
10 at the Council elections.
Liverpool Council, apart from lobbying State and
Federal Governments for infrastructure funding and
investment in our area (which we love them to do) has
no control over all the issues you will have heard so
much about during the Federal election.
So, what are the issues Liverpool Council is responsible
for?

Liverpool Chamber of Commerce and
Industry has encouraged Craig Rispin
to come to Liverpool and provide
monthly mentoring to businesses and
individuals who want to stay up-to-date
on technology and innovation.
The mentoring sessions are maintained on a one to
one basis by limiting each group to no more than
10 people. This gives the attendees the opportunity
to work with Craig on unique intellectual property,
discover easy-to-use automation tools, reduce
marketing costs, create new income streams and              Artist Impression of the Hyperloop - the latest technology in Fast Rail.
launch new products and services.
Chamber President Mr Harry Hunt OAM said “Craig’s
mentoring encourages Liverpool businesses to focus
on the very latest technological advancements that
will transform local businesses to become more
efficient and leaders in their fields.”
At the first Liverpool mentoring session Craig spoke
about “Watershed Moments” which are technological
breakthroughs like the i phone that have changed how
the world operates. Craig foresees that car automation
will be the next technological advancement that will
impact in a similar way.
Craig also touched upon Australia’s need to become
the “Clever Country” and believes that some

Dr William Trinh, recipient of the prestigious
Professor Lederer Award for Optometry, stressed the
importance of regular eye examinations.
“Sometimes early stages of an eye disease do not
have symptoms so it is important to have an eye
examination every one to two years. The earlier the
disease is detected, the more vision a person is likely
to retain.”
It is a frightening fact that almost 1.2 million Australians
over the age of 50 are living with some evidence of
MD and in the electorate of Fowler, the estimated
prevalence of Macular Degeneration will grow by 62%
by the Year 2030.
