WHAT IS AN ISSUE?
WHEN CITIZENS HAVE A CONCERN ABOUT ANY GOVERNMENT DEPARTMENT OR A NON GOVERNMENT DEPARTMENT. THERE WILL BE
TWO FORMS OF ISSUES: *A LOCAL ISSUE *A FEDERAL,
STATE AND TERRITORY ISSUE ALL LOCAL ISSUES OF
CONCERN WILL BE SUBMITTED BY THE CITIZEN TO THEIR LOCAL COUNCIL. ALL FEDERAL, STATE
AND TERRITORY ISSUES OF CONCERN WILL BE SUBMITTED BY THE CITIZEN TO THE GOVERNMENT DEPARTMENT, AGENCY, PUBLICLY FUNDED ORGANIZATION
OR BRANCHES ETC TO WHOM THE ISSUE IS IN CONTEXT WITH. FOR EXAMPLE: AN ISSUE OF CONCERN
ABOUT SEAT BELTS ON A SCHOOL BUS OR BUSES. MUST FIRST BE DIRECTED TO THE BUS COMPANY INVOLVED. IF THE ISSUE HAS NOT BEEN RESOLVED, THEN THE ISSUE MUST BE TO THAT STATE OR TERRITORIES TRANSPORT DEPARTMENT.
FOR EXAMPLE:
A SCHOOL ISSUE OF CONCERN
MUST BE DIRECTED TO THAT SCHOOL IF THE ISSUE IS NOT RESOLVED, THAN THE ISSUE WILL BE TO THAT STATE OR TERRITORIES EDUCATION
DEPARTMENT. FOR EXAMPLE:
A DISAGREEMENT
WITH A STORE, A BUSINESS, OR A COMPANY ETC WILL BE DIRECTED TO THAT BUSINESS ETC IF THE ISSUES OF CONCERN ARE NOT RESOLVED,
THEN THE ISSUE WILL BE TO THAT STATES OR TERRITORIES CONSUMER AFFAIRS DEPARTMENT. FOR EXAMPLE:
A CIVIL ISSUE
OF CONCERN WOULD BE TO YOUR LOCAL POLICE STATION. IF THE CONCERN COULD NOT BE RESOLVED, THEN THE ISSUE WOULD BE TO THAT STATE
OR TERRITORIES POLICE DEPARTMENT. FOR EXAMPLE: A RIVER ISSUE OF CONCERN
MUST BE IN THE RIGHT CONTEXT OF THAT RIVER FOR EXAMPLE, A COMPLAINT ABOUT OVER FISHING, FOREIGN FISH OR DEAD FISH IN THAT
RIVER, MUST BE A ISSUE FOR THAT STATE OR TERRITORIES FISHERIES DEPARTMENT, ALTHOUGH IF THERE IS AQUATIC WEEDS, POLLUTION OR
SOIL EROSION IN THAT RIVER IT WILL BE AN ISSUE FOR THAT STATE OR TERRITORIES ENVIRONMENTAL DEPARTMENT. ALL ISSUES SUBMITTED
BY CITIZENS WILL BE PLACED INTO THE RIGHT CONTEXT OF THE ISSUE AND THEN COMPILED. WHEN STATE OR
TERRITORY ISSUES WITHIN THE SAME CONTEXT REACH A REQUIRED LIMIT, THIS WILL BE CALCULATED BY THE POPULATION OF EACH STATE OR
TERRITORY. WHEN LOCAL ISSUES OF
CONCERN WITHIN THE SAME CONTEXT REACH A REQUIRED LIMIT, THIS REQUIRED LIMIT WILL BE CALCULATED BY THE MAJORITY OF CITIZENS
THAT MAKE UP THE POPLULATION OF A CITY, SHIRE, MUNICIPAL ETC A SELECTED LOCAL REPRESENTITIVE
WILL SUBMIT ALL ELIGIBLE ISSUES OF CONCERN ON THE BEHALF OF THE CITIZENS OF LOCAL SHIRES, CITIES, MUNICIPLES, BOROUGHS, TOWNS
AND DISTRICTS ETC. ALL LOCAL ISSUES OF
CONCERN WILL BE BROADCASTED TO THE DEBATE DEPARTMENT VIA VIDEO CAMERA FROM YOUR COUNCIL CHAMBERS; IF NO CHAMBERS EXISTS AN
APPROPRIATE FACILITY WILL BE ESTABLISHED. WHEN A CITIZEN SUBMITS
AN ISSUE BY TELEPHONE THE OPERATOR WILL ASK FOR YOUR TAX FILE NUMBER AND YOUR FOUR DIGIT PASSWORD NUMBER, THEN THE OPERATOR
WILL ASK YOU TO SUBMIT YOUR ISSUE OF CONCERN. IT WILL BE ILLEGAL
FOR THE PUBLIC TO SUBMIT ISSUES ON BEHALF OF OTHER PEOPLE UNLESS PRIOR ARRANGEMENTS HAVE BEEN MADE TO THE DEBATE DEPARTMENT. IT ALSO WILL BE ILLEGAL TO SUBMIT THE SAME ISSUE MORE THAN ONCE. PERSONS FOUND GUILTY OF THIS WILL BE PROSECUTED BY A COURT OF LAW FOR FRAUD. IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO
CHANGE THE ISSUE OF CONCERN YOU HAVE SUBMITTED YOU MUST CONTACT THE GOVERNMENT DEPARTMENT, AGENCY, PUBLICLY FUNDED ORGANIZATION
OR THEIR BRANCHES ETCWHERE YOUR ISSUE FIRST ORIGINATED. AUSTRALIAN CITIZENS
OVERSEAS AT THE TIME OF A DEBATE WHO DESIRE TO SUBMIT AN ISSUE OR VOTE MAY DO SO BY TELEPHONING THE DEBATE DEPARTMENT. THE DEBATE DEPARTMENT WILL FULLY INFORM THE CITIZEN OF WHICH ISSUES THAT ARE BEING
DEBATED OR VOTED UPON. ALL ISSUES AND VOTES SUBMITTED BY OVERSEAS AUSTRALIANS
WILL BE NO DIFFERENT TO AUSTRALIAN CITIZENS SUBMITTING ISSUES OR VOTES IN AUSTRALIA.
WHEN A CITIZEN SUBMITS
AN ISSUE TO A GOVERNMENT DEPARTMENT, AGENCY, PUBLICLY FUNDED ORGANIZATION OR THEIR BRANCHES ETC THEY WILL RECEIVE A RECEIPT
NUMBER TO VERIFY THAT THEIR ISSUE HAS BE RECORDED. IF YOU HAVE ANY
PROBLEMS SUBMITTING AN ISSUE THE OPERATOR WILL BE HAPPY TO ASSIST YOU. ALL ISSUES WILL THEN
BE CATALOGUED WITHIN THE CONTEXT OF THAT ISSUE THEN COMPILED BY THAT GOVERNMENT DEPARTMENT, AGENCY, PUBLICLY FUNDED ORGANIZATION
AND THEIR BRANCHES ETC. ALL ISSUES SUBMITTED
TO ANY GOVERNMENT DEPARTMENT, AGENCY, PUBLICLY FUNDED ORGANIZATION OR THEIR BRANCHES ETC WILL BE SUBMITTED TO THE DEBATE DEPARTMENT
AT THE BEGINNING OF EACH DEBATE.
