Mitchell Freeway to be extended decreased pressure on local arterial roads and increased residential and business development in the area,” he said.
Last week, Minister for Transport, Dean Nalder, announced that Leighton Contractors had been awarded the $160 million design and construct contract of the Mitchell Freeway extension from Burns Beach Road to Hester Avenue. The six kilometre extension to the freeway, consists of two lanes in each direction with the capacity to add a third lane in the future.
The extension will significantly improve transport flow to the outer northern suburbs and ease traffic on local roads. Mr Nalder said the area had experienced strong traffic growth due to widespread residential development over recent years, which was expected to continue. “The community in the far northern suburbs will benefit from a reduction in travel times,
Works will include the extension of Neerabup Road east from Connolly Drive to Wanneroo Road, duplication of Hester Avenue, and construction of principal shared paths, pedestrian underpasses and gradeseparated interchanges at Burns Beach Road, Neerabup Road and Hester Avenue. Detailed design work will start this month and construction is expected to commence mid-2015. The freeway extension is planned for completion by mid-2017. City of Wanneroo Mayor, Tracey Roberts, welcomed the early
commencement of the Mitchell Freeway Extension Project but says a more northern exit would alleviate congestion concerns at Hester Avenue. Mayor Roberts said: "The City of Wanneroo is the fastest growing local government in Western Australia growing by 8,000 new residents every year, this long awaited freeway extension to Romeo Road is needed to take pressure off the already significantly congested Wanneroo Road and Marmion Avenue.” Mayor Roberts has wrote to Premier Colin Barnett in March urging the State Government to reconsider its decision to end the extension at Hester Avenue.
“While we do appreciate the investment, which will benefit many residents to the north in the City of Wanneroo, there are other projects that will be impeded,” Mayor Roberts said. “Extending the freeway to Romeo Road would prompt early construction of the Wanneroo Road to Marmion Avenue eastwest link, providing access to Butler train station and amenities for residents in Carabooda and surrounding suburbs. “Our Northern Coastal Growth Corridor, which comprises Alkimos, Eglinton, Yanchep and Two Rocks, is expected to welcome 73,000 additional people by 2036 and we need to start accommodating for that growth now.”
Gingin water plan Minister for Water, Mia Davies, recently announced climate-resilient allocation limits and expanded trading rules are two features of a State Government water plan to support future growth and development in the shires north of Perth. The Gingin groundwater areas allocation plan spans five shires and includes the towns of Bindoon, Chittering, Gingin, Guilderton, Lancelin, Seabird, Dandaragan and Moora. “This is a very important area with a valued horticultural sector and tree-change lifestyle, however it is feeling some significant climate change impacts,” Ms Davies said. “To meet the calls for regional water security in the face of the climate and growth challenges, we have invested time and effort to create a framework to balance the needs of all groundwater uses. “The allocation limits and licensing rules set in this plan are based on the best available science, including information from recent hydrogeological investigations, environmental studies, rainfall data and trends in groundwater levels in the Gingin plan area.” The Minister said the plan was developed and finalised through consultation with stakeholders. “Consultation has been critical in developing this plan, and concerns raised with us centred on the impact of the changing climate and groundwater use on valued rivers such as Gingin Brook, and the reliability of current and future entitlements in the face of growth and climate challenges,” she said. The total allocation limit for the area has been reduced by 67GL/yr to 235GL/yr to factor the impact of the changing climate with 41GL/yr reserved for public water supply. Water is still available for licensing in 29 out of the 35 resources with 20GL/yr available for new licences on top of the 30GL/yr in applications under consideration. The plan can be viewed on the Department of Water web site at http://www.water.wa.gov.au

ANZAC - Commemorating 100 years ANZAC Day, 25 April, is one of Australia’s most important national occasions. It marks the anniversary of the first major military action fought by Australian and New Zealand forces during the First World War. When war broke out in 1914 Australia had been a federated nation for only 13 years, and the new federal government was eager to establish its reputation among the nations of the world. When Britain declared war in August 1914, Australia was automatically placed on the side of the Commonwealth.
The Australian and New Zealand forces landed on Gallipoli on 25 April, meeting fierce resistance from the Ottoman Turkish defenders. What had been planned as a bold stroke to knock Turkey out of the war quickly became a stalemate, and the campaign dragged on for eight months. At the end of 1915, the allied forces were evacuated from the peninsula, with both sides having suffered heavy casualties and endured great hardships. More than 8,000 Australian soldiers had been killed.
In 1915, Australian and New Zealand soldiers formed part of the expedition that set out to capture the Gallipoli peninsula in order to open the Dardanelles to the allied navies.
The Gallipoli campaign had a profound impact on Australians at home, and 25 April soon became the day on which Australians remembered the sacrifice of those who died in the war.
The ultimate objective was to capture Constantinople now Istanbul, the capital of the Ottoman Empire, an ally of Germany.
Although the Gallipoli campaign failed in its military objectives, the Australian and New Zealand actions during the campaign left us all a powerful legacy. The
creation of what became known as the ‘ANZAC legend’ became an important part of the identity of both nations, shaping the ways they viewed both their past and their future. ANZAC Day goes beyond the anniversary of the landing on Gallipoli in 1915. It is the day on which we remember Australians who served and died in all wars, conflicts, and peacekeeping operations. The spirit of ANZAC, with its human qualities of courage, mateship, and sacrifice, continues to have meaning and relevance for our sense of national identity.

Dose of Dorin
FROM THE EDITOR’S DESK Actions always speak stronger than ‘promising words’. Too many times, supposedly influential people make an array of promises, but rarely deliver - I call it the ‘I’m gonna’ syndrome. The most prolific ‘I’m gonnas’ are politicians, from local council through to federal politics, and land developers. They rave about what is going to be done, what will happen, and what is proposed, but how often do we actually see them ensure the apparitorate funding is secured and the project is delivered?
If you talk to some of our older citizens, it appears these promises have been around since the Bondy days, some 40 years ago. I would have thought, 40 years has been more than enough time to start delivering on some of these promises. The most honest politician I’ve met has to be Troy Buswell - At least at his only visit to the region, he admitted ‘He’d never been here before and didn’t know what was going on’. So it makes me wonder about all these approaches to governments and politicians by a variety of
money-grabbing lobbyists and the tens of thousands of dollars they received. The latest catch phrase is ‘It’s in the ten years plan’ This means squat! Real projects need full funding, commitment and delivery, not staging, partfunding or endless consultations. Development of the region to its full potential needs ‘action people’ willing to get the job underway, not ‘warm and fuzzy’ speeches. If I had a dollar for every promise I’ve heard made, I’m sure, I’d be quite a wealthy person.
OPINIONS Thank you
Thank you for the Opinion letter in the last edition of Sun City News. Friends of Moore River Estuary fully support Moore River Company (MRC) and Shire of Gingin in their efforts to keep 4WD vehicles off the beach and hinterland between Wilbinga Conservation Park and Moore River. The south side of Moore River Estuary is unspoiled and delicate. Even if development goes ahead, large areas of foreshore are to be
protected for future West Australians to appreciate in it natural state. These coastal and riverine foreshores will also provide wildlife corridors so that the plants, animals and birds that live here will still have homes too. Continued incursions by off road vehicles will rip up and ruin this bushland so must be prevented now. That MRC has decided to monitor their land and prosecute repeat offenders is good news.
YOUR LETTERS AND EMAILS OPINIONS EXPRESSED are those of the writer and do not necessarily reflect those of the Sun City News staff. Guest editorials are encouraged as are letters to the editor. Letters will be published on a space available basis. It is our intention to publish all letters we receive, except those that are libelous or unsigned. Preference will be given to those that are emailed to editor@suncitynews.com.au. All letters must include the author’s name and phone number for purpose of verification. All letters and guest editorials are subject to editing for space and content.
Please keep up the pressure until there is no longer a problem. We also agree with the Shire of Gingin that this whole area, north of Wilbinga to the river, should be made off limits to offroaders. At the March council meeting they made this resolution: Moved Councillor Aspinall, seconded Councillor Kestel that: 1. Council refer the proposal for establishment of a Prohibited Area under the Control of Vehicles (Offroad Areas) Act 1978 over an area of land bounded by the Indian Ocean to the west, Reserve
49994 (Wilbinga ReserveDepartment of Parks and Wildlife) to the south, Indian Ocean Drive to the east and Barragoon Road and the Moore River to the north to the Shire’s Department of Regulatory Services for further investigation; and 2. A Discussion Paper in relation to this proposal be presented to the Concept Forum on 5 May 2015. Carried unanimously. Moore River Estuary and the adjacent desert have been favourite playgrounds for thousands of people for more
than 50 years - Let's all look after it so we can continue to enjoy this wonderful spot forever. Linda Johnson, Convenor FOMRE, Guilderton.

More on thefts at school staff of names, details and more.
After publishing the article ‘Theft at school - Who is responsible? in the Sun City News, last issue, there has been plenty of community concern about both these senseless crimes and the lack of accepting responsibility.
The Sun City News understands that at least one parent tried to contact the school principal, Alan Curtis, but he is on long service leave. This parent is believed to have then spoken to a deputy - Who didn't seem overly concerned but took the names anyway.
Several parents contacted the Sun City News complimenting the editor for speaking out - One mother said: “Well done on this article! It's about time some truths were told!” Another parent contacted the Sun City News with even more concerning information - Yanchep District High School had been informed of who was involved in the theft of several scooters and skateboards, plus several other concerning issues including ongoing school bullying and drug issues at the school. One parent said: “I have spoken to numerous parents, personally and via social media, who are extremely peeved off with the lack of interest or concern shown by YDHS - principal and staff alike.”
The Sun City News contacted the Regional Manager from North Metropolitan Education Office about the recent issues at Yanchep District High School.
The Sun City News is aware that parents have fronted the school for answers. The schools response was: "It's not our responsibility.” One dad said: "They don't give a damn." The Sun City News was told: “A lot of students know (who was
involved in the theft), but are too scared to say anything as the physical violence at YDHS is very much alive and very much hidden; and the school doesn't care about that either”. The Sun City News understands some students who are believed to have witnessed this crime have informed the principal and other
Paul Meacock, Regional Executive Director, said very few parents had reported or made complaints to the North Metropolitan Regional Office about Yanchep District High School. “We have received very little evidence or correspondence to support suggestions that Yanchep District High School has major issues with drugs, assaults and bullying,” Mr Meacock said.
Boating facilities receive funding Last week, Minister for Transport, Dean Nalder, announced 21 projects from Port Hedland to Denmark would be funded under the latest round available through the Recreational Boating Facilities Scheme (RBFS). Within the Shire of Gingin two projects received funding. Some $137,276 has been granted for a two part study to determine the most suitable site for an ocean boat launching facility at either Lancelin or Ledge Point. The second phase of the project will involve the preparation of engineering drawings, cost estimates and
obtaining necessary approvals for the selected site. A further $20,000 has been made available for an upgrade at the Guilderton Foreshore car park, the aim being to maximise parking spaces and improve traffic flow. State Member for Moore, Shane Love, said both projects had the potential to greatly enhance recreational boating facilities on the Gingin Shire coast. “The Gingin Shire experiences a huge influx of tourists to its coastal towns and enhanced boating facilities will ensure the needs of WA’s growing boating
community are met,” he said. “These two projects will, in time, provide great new assets for local and visiting boaties.” The grants are the remaining funds from a $20 million commitment through the WA Government’s Royalties for Regions program. The scheme is managed by the Department of Transport and provides up to 75 per cent of funding for new or improved facilities which benefit the recreational boating public. Eligible authorities may also apply for planning grants which result in detailed plans, cost
estimates, approvals or similar for public recreational boating facilities. Since 1998, the Recreational Boating Facilities Scheme has allocated nearly $42 million to 395 projects. Two Rocks boat ramp received $518,100 for an upgrade, the Minister for Transport, Dean Nalder, will be at Two Rocks marina today, Thursday 23 April, with further announcements about the future of the marina. Keep up to date with this announcement by following the Sun City News Facebook page.
“Only when specific reports are made can matters like these be properly dealt with. We always encourage parents who have concerns about a school to raise them with the principal, and if they do not believe proper action is being taken to deal with problems and keep students safe, they should report this to the regional office so we can investigate and take action where necessary. “Personal property is always brought to school at students’ own risk and while theft is extremely disappointing, police are better placed to investigate.” In closing, the Sun City News understands teachers and staff have been warned not to talk to anyone from Sun City News after an article about a bullying and one particular incident, last year was reported. Sun City News’ enquiries directed to the school have not been responded to either.
Drug charges Police executed a search warrant on a house in Ashmore Avenue, Two Rocks, on Monday 13 April. Officers allegedly located items associated with the manufacture of illicit drugs and chemicals. It was believed that the house was being used for the manufacture of illicit drugs at some stage. Police seized the equipment and chemicals, and will conduct further inquiries. A quantity of cannabis was also located. A 28 year old man was charged with attempt to possess certain substances or things, namely glassware, three charges of possession of certain substances, chemicals and apparatus, and possession of a prohibited drugs, Cannabis. He will appear in court at a later date. On the same day, several police attended a property in Leichhardt Drive, Two Rocks - Police say it was not related to the Ashmore Avenue incident.

Spending questioned At the April City of Wanneroo monthly council meeting held in the Phil Renkin Centre at Two Rocks, State Member for Butler, John Quigley, asked three question related to City of Wanneroo’s spending on external representation and advice, including but not limited to lawyers, planners and experts for State Administrative Tribunal (SAT) matters the council has been involved in for the 2013/2014, and 2014/2015 financial years. This follows from the State Member for Wanneroo and former North Ward councillor, Paul Miles, submitting questions at the March briefing session about how many times the City of Wanneroo had taken matters to SAT in the past year. In response to Mr Miles’ questions, the City of Wanneroo said 13 applications had been to SAT for reviews. Mr Quigley’s questions were taken on notice and answers will be provided to the 28 April council meeting.
Chicken farm update In September, last year, the Sun City News alerted the City of Wanneroo about possible health and water problems at the Swan Valley Egg Farm on Carabooda Road. Now over seven months later, the City of Wanneroo told the Sun City News: “The City is currently engaged in legal action against the property owner.” In relation to possible water issues, the City of Wanneroo said environmental issues related to the water was managed Department Environmental Protection and officers from the Department have carried out inspections of the property. City of Wanneroo has been in contact with neighbouring properties and has provided them with information about this problem.
On the agenda At next Tuesday’s City of Wanneroo council meeting, the council will consider 30 different reports including: considering modifications required by the WAPC to the draft North Alkimos Local Structure Plan This structure plan is for approximately 240 hectares of land at Lots 9001 and 9003 Marmion Avenue, Alkimos plus various other lots located between Lots 9001 and 9003 Marmion Avenue, Alkimos. Administration is recommending that the WAPC requirements are not significantly or materially different to the original structure plan and should be accepted by the council. In another report, City of Wanneroo administration are recommending the council adopt the Yanchep-Two Rocks Development Contribution Plan Report and Cost Apportionment Schedule, noting that the cost contribution for the plan is based on a developer dwelling projection of 10,603 and an estimated cost of $21.9 million. Seven submissions were received from Yanchep-Two Rocks landowners - One submission stated that they consider the City of Wanneroo was using the developer contribution plan to
resolve short to their medium term funding mismatches without any negative consequences. They noted that developer cost contributions are ultimately passed on to the homebuyer and that this has the direct effect of increasing the cost of housing and shifting the risk of borrowing from the City of Wanneroo to new homeowners. Council administration’s response was that they were aware of the impact of development contributions on housing affordability and had worked with landowners to keep the cost contribution to a minimum amount that will deliver the facilities for the local community. Within the council reports it states: ‘There is some risk associated with the YanchepTwo Rocks and AlkimosEglinton DCPs in relation to the unpredictability of expenses and revenue associated with their implementation. “Development contribution schemes have been identified as a high corporate risk that requires ongoing management.” Currently administration’s recommendations do not detail how they will manage the risk.
In another report, the council will consider the outcomes of CSRFF applications including $98,333 towards the $295,000 Oldham Reserve multi-purpose room. While the Oldham Park project was eligible for funding through the CSRFF grant, the project was not deemed to be a priority by the Department of Sports and Recreation. Projects are evaluated on the premise that they will increase physical activity and be multi-purpose in function. While the facility will be multipurpose in nature, it was not seen to increase physical activity. In the next report, council will be asked to approve writing off a debt of $9,416.12, run up by ATI Martial Arts for facility hire during 2013 and 2014. The manager of the City of Wanneroo’s Governance and Legal department said that it would not be viable to take this matter further as legal costs for commencing court proceedings for debt recovery would be in the region of $3,000 to $5,000 for solicitor’s fees and another $3,000 to $6,000 in further disbursements to locate ATI. Advice was to the council that unless the City of Wanneroo was aware of any asset that
may be seized, there would be only a slim chance of recovery through the legal process. In the final report for the meeting, council will consider the City of Wanneroo’s submission to the Office of the Electoral Distribution Commissioner regarding a review of the State electoral boundaries in Western Australia (the Review) in preparation for the next State general election in March 2017. The council’s submission highlights the urban growth along the northern coastal corridor and increased urban densities in established southern suburbs as Girrawheen and Koondoola. Behind closed doors, the council will consider a confidential ‘employee related matter’ - As the council is only responsible for employing the chief executive office and they delegate the CEO to be responsible for the 700 odd staff employed at the City of Wanneroo, there is considerable interest in this report. All residents, rate-payers and members of the public are welcome to attend the council meeting, starting at 7.00pm, Tuesday 28 April, in the City of Wanneroo council chambers in Wanneroo.

Demand for new school
Ocean Keys K Carpets Carp pets p
Back in February, this year, the Member for Butler, John Quigley, wrote to the Minister for Education, Peter Collier, informing him that parents from Yanchep District High School invited him to attend a meeting at the school. Now two months down the track, the Minister has not replied to Mr Quigley’s letter or letters sent by Yanchep District High School parents. Earlier this week, John Quigley met with irate parents frustrated by the Minister’s apparent lack of priority and interest in their plight. Mr Quigley acting on behalf of Yanchep DHS parents and students is demanding the State Government allocate $70 million in this year’s budget to build a new high school on land they already own at Jindowie Estate, and $10 million to upgrade the Yanchep Primary School. The Jindowie land was allocated and purchased for a new high school over four years ago. In November 2012, the State Government announced a $10.5 million upgrade for Yanchep DHS, then after being re-elected the entire $10.5 million was cut. Many parents feel if the State Government can find $800 million for Elizabeth Keys, $1.5 billion for a sports stadium and $2.2 billion for a railway to the airport, that no one wants, surely they can find $80 million for the two schools at Yanchep.

Not that long ago, the Minister for Education, Peter Collier, described Yanchep DHS as the worst school in Western Australia, yet he continues to ignore the needs of our local students. Many parents feel if a new school is not built at Yanchep immediately, a generation of local students from Yanchep DHS will be under-educated and affected for life. John Quigley, told the Sun City News, that on behalf of the Yanchep community he will make the new Yanchep High School his number one priority and he will be asking questions in State Parliament, today Thursday 23 April. “It is absolutely outrageous that the State Government continually ignores the needs of Yanchep District High School,” he said. “I will work vigorously for the Yanchep community until the State Government delivers the new Yanchep High School.” After meeting with about 50 parents before school earlier this week, Mr Quigley was

Yanchep District High School was first opened in 1975 as a primary school and was reclassified to a district high school in 1981. On the TAG - The Architecture Group’s web site it states: “At present, an increased student population and demand for specialist curricula has prompted an expansion of current facilities.” The new buildings would have included a performing arts studio, staff offices, science laboratories, a visual arts classroom, materials and technology workshops and ancillary sporting facilities. The school was to remain occupied and fully functional throughout the construction of the project.

Pirates chasing premiership football and quick hands saw them lead by 26 points. Moora needed to rebound in the second quarter however they fell further behind. Pirates’ centre half back Jamie Koric held Booka Smith to a single goal in two quarters while last year’s league best and fairest runner-up, Warren Benjamin, showed magnificent foot skills hitting up new Pirates' full forward Jackson Harwood with a spearing 40 metre pass. The Lancelin Pirates league team are on top of the CMCFL premiership table after two solid wins from the first two games.
Local Fisheries officer Ryan Bellotti, photo’d, slotted two goals from close range in the first five minutes to get the Pirates off to a solid start.
After defeating Cervantes by six goals in a grand final rematch on 11 April, the reigning premiers hosted Moora in Lancelin on Sunday and turned on a clinical display to trounce them by 132 points.
Newly elected Pirates’ captain, Curtis Reddell, kicked the Pirates third goal before Moora’s Terry Narrier put the Mavericks on the board with a goal from the pocket. By quarter time, the Pirates superior use of the
Ryan Belotti’s check side punt goal was memorable as was the speed with which the Pirates moved the ball. At half time Moora were looking at a 15.12 to 3.2 scoreline. The third quarter held little joy for the Mavericks. Despite good work from captain/ coach Craig Whyte and Terry Narrier, the Mavericks had no answer to the Pirates slick on ballers.

Conor Mills was having a field day in the centre roving to ex WAFL reserves player Tyson Hodge. In the forward line, Harwood and Bellotti were running amok and by three quarter time the Pirates had kicked another five goals while Moora managed just two points. The final quarter saw more of the same with the Mavericks defenders under constant pressure. By game end, the Pirates had scored 25.18 (168) to Moora’s 5.6 (36). Twelve Pirates were on the goal scoring list with Harwood (6) and Bellotti (5) leading the list with young Pirate, Isaac Temby, dominant on the wing.

I have 11 tattoos, but the one that has the most meaning and is the most recent is this one.
The flower and butterfly tattoo was my first tattoo.
I wanted to honour the two most important people in my life - My boys!
Two years ago my husband and I had a miscarriage. So to try and fill the whole in our hearts we got a beautiful dog named, Arya. Well, when our amazing puppy was only eight months old, she was let out of our back yard and was stolen. It shattered my heart into a million tiny pieces, for some closure my husband suggested I get a tattoo for our beautiful baby girl. It took me a little over a year after she went missing to find the artist and the design on paper.
My mum’s friend designed it expecially for me, my uncle tattooed it, it was my first trip home since I was a baby. The baby pink dragon resembles my brother as a child. He asked mum and dad to get a pink dragon to resemble him and they said no, so I got it for him. The last tattoo I got while my partner was in hospital, it reminds me every day that I can make it through anything because nothing is harder than what we went through and we made it with belief, hope and the love we have for each other.
But here it is, my beautiful girls paw print and her name.
DINING OUT
The original one on top I loved when they did it but after only a couple of months the result wasn't worthy of my boys. I went to different artist and told him what I wanted and the result I got was an amazing cover up that truly sums them up. Bright, full of life and they just keep on blossoming the way I'm truly proud of.

DADAA get involved
At the Wangaree Community Centre in Lancelin, DADAA (Disability in the Arts, Disadvantaged in the Arts Australia) have been busy for the past couple of months working on having an arts exhibition to commemorate the 100 years anniversary of ANZAC Day. This exhibition has come about from all of our DADAA clients voicing a desire to do something special in our community to commemorate the ANZACS. Children from the Lancelin Primary school and members of the Lancelin RSL visited the exhibition. There is also an interactive memorial message board where the public can write on a poppy and place it in the wall.
Local real estate sales consultant and keen photographer, Tracy Ewins snapped these great photos last weekend during the perfect autumn weather.
Along with some beautiful paintings they have made 100 ceramic poppies to sit in a white cross as well as a memorial mosaic that will be donated to the RSL, to place at Memorial Park in Lancelin.
The popular Yanchep Lagoon is a favourite with both beach goers and keen photographers - These photos show the sheer beauty of the lagoon, while capturing the power of the ocean and the beach erosion that occurs each season.
Ceramic poppies will be available to ‘pick’ for $10.00 and all artwork is on sale. Make sure you get along to have a look at this exhibition and write a message for the ANZACS. The exhibition will be open until 25 April between 10.00am and 1.00pm.

n Be healthy n Be fit n Be beautiful n Health, Beauty & Wellness ‘No jab, no pay’ policy has a serious ethical sting The Coalition government’s proposed ‘no jab, no pay’ policy may inject enthusiasm into politics, but policies mandating vaccination are ethically very precarious. The plan to withhold payments of child-care and family tax benefits for unvaccinated children could cost non-compliant parents up to $15,000 a year. But is it ethical to punish parents for what should be an individual decision and is based on concern for their kids? Parents are naturally concerned for their children. While some of their fears may be unfounded, not all vaccines are 100 per cent safe; while rare, childhood vaccinations can cause febrile seizures. One of the main reasons for parents' fears may stem from the controversy about the measles, mumps, rubella (MMR) vaccine. Although this fear was famously fuelled by false claims, reviews of multiple scientific studies by the Cochrane Collaboration in 2005 and 2012 show evidence of adverse events associated with that vaccine.
Disturbingly, both reviews highlight that the design and reporting of safety outcomes in MMR vaccine studies have been ‘largely inadequate’.
additional benefit is conferred by mandating vaccinations. The National Health Performance Authority reports that Australia already enjoys high immunisation rates. Over 90 per cent of children are classified as ‘fully immunised’ by the age of five.
Here’s what lies at the heart of the problem: the risk of adverse reactions from vaccines is actually very small but families unfortunate enough to suffer a vaccination reaction are unlikely to be consoled by this improbability. They may be little moved by the fact that their loss nonetheless served the common good.
Unintended consequences The ‘no jab, no pay’ policy has harms beyond the physical: it may unfairly deny funds to people who already suffer from hardship. While much attention is given to the half of non-vaccinators who consciously refuse, people have failed to vaccinate for other reasons such as having an ill child, or being caught up in what may be an already difficult separated family situation. People who do not vaccinate for reasons other than disagreement and concern tend to have lower
And we know that complete elimination of risk of exposure to infected people is unrealistic as reflected in the case of the Brisbane woman who reportedly contracted diphtheria from a friend who had been travelling abroad. household incomes (60 per cent have a household income less than $50,000) and lower education levels (34 per cent have year ten or less education). Single-parent households are also over-represented in this subpopulation – 21 per cent versus 15 per cent of families nationally. For such people, a policy that links vaccination to family benefits may simply increase their disadvantage. It may even add fuel to family tensions if the problem arises because of a separated family situation and parents with differing views. Yet another potential harm resulting from the policy is that mandating vaccinations fails to respect individual autonomy. This tension between individual rights and the public good has been labelled the ‘central dilemma’ in public health. The counter-argument to these harms is that childhood
vaccination can and does save lives. But we now know that not all vaccinations are 100 per cent effective.
Risks of infection will likely always remain, especially because of our unprecedented mobility across national borders.
If they were, there would fewer emotional appeals along the lines of ‘the anti-vaccine movement threatens us all’.
Public health in this instance is about the delicate balance between the desired benefits (protection from preventable disease) and possible costs (adverse events, unfair distribution of costs and undermining individual autonomy).
The same coin The emotional appeals of the opposing views on vaccination are both driven by concern for children. Some parents fear their children may be harmed by vaccines, or harmed by people around them who aren’t vaccinated. Neither wishes to endanger their child. The ultimate aim of public health is the benefit conferred after taking potential harm into account. In the case of vaccination, the gold standard is achieving herd or community immunity. But the moral challenge posed by this policy concerns what, if any,
It’s vital that those guiding the community and especially those seeking to impose their view on others are mindful of the complex ethical issues raised by this policy. Indeed, it’s unfortunate that there’s no vaccine against inadvertently engaging in unethical behaviour. If there were, we could administer it to policy makers first of all. Source: The Conversation.
