Do you have what it takes to write a hit TV series?

Applications are now open for Screenworks 2019 Writing for TV Intensive, a two-day workshop that will guide participants through key elements fundamental to writing a successful TV drama series.  Open to early career writers living in regional NSW, regional Queensland and Western Australia, 12 selected applicants will develop their skills to enable them to bring their stories from regional Australia to our screens.  

Being held in Byron Bay on 13th and 14th July, the workshop will be delivered by acclaimed screenwriter and tutor Holly Lyons and is supported by Create NSW and Linnaeus Estate Education Fund.  Applicants selected from regional Queensland will be supported by Screen Queensland and Western Australian participants by Screenwest.  The deadline for applications is Monday 17th June 2019.

During the two-day workshop, Holly will guide selected applicants through the processes of how to devise characters, challenge protagonists, develop premise and plot.  This workshop will help writers understand how to apply these skills when developing their own original series, and how to prepare for opportunities in television writers’ rooms.

Holly has extensive screenwriting experience both in Australia and the UK, with over 400 hours of broadcast credits as a writer or script editor.  Holly has worked on numerous and diverse series such as Home and Away, Neighbours, Skinner Boys and Bananas in Pyjamas.

“This is the third year Screenworks has run this Writing for TV Intensive,” explained Screenworks CEO Ken Crouch.  “Previous participants have secured producer and broadcast interest in their projects.  They have also gone on to be selected for our Career Pathways Program which has helped them to achieve their regional screenwriting dreams.  We look forward to supporting another 12 talented participants and seeing where this workshop will take them.”

This opportunity will appeal to early career screenwriters and writers that are interested in pursuing TV drama. 

Applicants must be living in regional NSW, regional Queensland or Western Australia (preference will be given to regional Western Australian applicants) and will be asked to submit a sample of their script writing as part of the application. 

Recognising our Rural Women Volunteers

The outstanding achievements of female volunteers across regional NSW will be recognised as nominations for the 2019 Hidden Treasures Honour Roll officially open.
 
Minister for Agriculture Adam Marshall and Minister for Mental Health, Regional Youth and Women Bronnie Taylor encouraged members of the community to submit nominations for the Honour Roll, which shines a spotlight on the accomplishments of female volunteers across the regions. 
 
“The annual Hidden Treasures Honour Roll provides well-earned recognition of the outstanding achievements of female volunteers and the invaluable role they play in our regional communities,” Mr Marshall said.
 
“Since the Honour Roll was introduced in 2010, we’ve heard incredible stories of tireless work and achievement from rural volunteers, from boosting educational opportunities to helping communities through events such as drought.”
 
Ms Taylor said the opening of nominations coincides with the 30th annual National Volunteer Week and was a reminder to reflect on the wonderful female volunteers in our community.
 
“As a country woman, I have seen first-hand the way regional women support one another and volunteer in so many capacities, they are the backbone of their communities,” Ms Taylor said.
 
“The theme of this year’s National Volunteer Week is ‘Making a world of difference’ and reflects the impact regional women have, particularly when times are tough.”
 
To nominate a Hidden Treasures volunteer, complete a nomination online or download a nomination form and share a few paragraphs about why your nominee deserves to be recognised. Nominations close 2 August. For more information, contact the Rural Women’s Network on 02 6391 3612 or email rural.women@dpi.nsw.gov.au

Bomen Solar Farm

Renew Estate has announced that two key milestones have been reached for the 120 megawatt (DC) Bomen Solar Farm project located near Wagga Wagga. Spark Infrastructure has acquired 100% of Bomen Solar Farm and the construction contract has been awarded to Beon Energy Solutions. Bomen Solar Farm has also signed a Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) with Westpac. Under the PPA, Westpac has committed to purchase just over a quarter of the solar farm's output under a 10-year agreement. Deputy Prime Minister Michael McCormack said "...it demonstrates yet again that regional Australia is at the leading edge of technology and capable of hosting big projects which have statewide and national benefits."
The farm will require a peak workforce of up to 250 workers during the construction phase and produce energy equivalent to powering 36,000 homes. 

Tumbarumba to Rosewood Rail Trail Project Begins

Construction has officially begun on the Tumbarumba to Rosewood Rail Trail project. The project is a pilot for the state and a working model for future rail trails, and has been funded  $5.7 million by the NSW State Government. The 2.2km walking and cycling track is scheduled to be completed by the end of February 2020. Snowy Valleys Council has provided support for the project, expecting it to cement the region as a premium cycling destination.

Deadline for Single Touch Payroll transition extended for small businesses

The Single Touch Payroll (STP) for small business commences on 1st July 2019, however the ATO have extended the deadline to September 2019 to allow for the transition as they understand the impost this has on small business.

The Australian Tax Office is urging small businesses to think about STP, how they will adapt and when they will start the change. Single Touch Payroll is happening and small businesses need to start preparing for it.

How STP works

STP works by sending tax and super information from your payroll or accounting software to the ATO as you run your payroll.

When you start reporting:

• you will run your payroll, pay your employees as normal, and give them a payslip

  • your pay cycle does not need to change (you can continue to pay your employees weekly, fortnightly or monthly)

• your STP-enabled payroll software will send the ATO a report which includes the information they need from you, such as salaries and wages, pay as you go (PAYG) withholding and super information

  • see the ATO employer reporting guidelines for a full list of payments that must be reported through STP.

You will be reporting super liability information through STP for the first time. Super funds will also be reporting to the ATO. They'll let the ATO know when you make the payment to your employees' chosen or default fund. This is an important step toward making sure employees are paid their correct entitlements.

The way STP information is sent will depend on the software you use. STP reporting will be offered in one of the following ways with:

• an end-to-end solution, which allows you to run your payroll and send the STP information directly to the ATO from your software

• a solution which allows you to run your payroll and send the STP information through a third party sending service provider (SSP) which is integrated into your software

• a solution that allows you to run your payroll and requires you to send the STP information through a third party sending service provider (SSP) outside your software.

ATO systems will match the STP information to their employer and employee records.

Your employees will be able to see their year-to-date tax and super information in ATO online services, which can only be accessed through myGov. Their data is updated every time you report (each pay day for most employers). Without STP reporting, employee data is only reported at the end of the financial year.

If you believe that your business will not be ready to start reporting through STP by 30 September 2019, you can contact the ATO to discuss putting a deferral in place.

Wagga to the World: A business seminar on export opportunities

Are you looking to develop new market opportunities and expand your business? Or simply interested in learning more about global trade and exporting?

Lockhart's renewable future

THE Nationals Member for Riverina and Deputy Prime Minister Michael McCormack has announced $1 million in Federal Government funding through the Community Development Grants Programme for stage one of the Lockhart Renewable Energy Project.

Under the proposal, electricity would be generated locally from renewable energy sources which, combined with battery storage technology, would not only be sufficient to power the town 24 hours a day, seven days a week, but would also generate surplus power which could be sold back into the grid.

“This proposed microgrid demonstration project shows that big things in the area of renewable energy can come from small but innovative places, such as Lockhart,” Mr McCormack said.

“The Government is supporting communities and businesses at all levels to lower energy cost whether it be through backing microgrids, building Snowy Hydro 2.0 or providing grants to local organisations to install rooftop solar panels.”

Lockhart was chosen as the site for the demonstration project because it has a mix of residential, commercial and industrial electricity consumers, as well as public institutions, such as schools and a hospital.

The town is also established in a grid pattern and is NBN connected.

The vision is for Lockhart to remain connected to the main grid – enhancing energy security – while reducing power prices and providing environmental benefits.

“The community, including Lockhart Shire Council, is fully supportive of the project and that is one of the reasons I am right behind it,” Mr McCormack said.

CSIRO pilot study shows inland rail could save $76 per tonne in transport costs

The results from a pilot study looking at the potential transport cost savings available from Inland Rail were announced by the Deputy Prime Minister, Michael McCormack, on 21 March 2019.

The results demonstrate an average transport cost saving of $76 per tonne, when shifting specific agricultural supply chains from road to Inland Rail.

Key findings:

• Inland Rail could reduce supply chain costs by saving an average of $76 per tonne for horticulture and post-processed food supply chains (compared with transport by road); and $31 per tonne for horticulture products currently transported by rail on the coastal line

• Inland Rail could lead to a reduction in heavy vehicle congestion, with the pilot study finding a reduction of up to 63,000 heavy vehicle trips per year along segments of the Newell Highway

The Pilot Study marks the beginning of two phases of work (to be done sequentially, for two periods of 12 months) that will be applied to the broader Inland Rail corridor, commencing with the southern corridor, from Narromine to Seymour, and then on to the northern corridor, from Narromine to Toowoomba, to obtain even more detailed potential cost savings across a broader range of agriculture and other supply chains.

"The CSU AgriTech Incubator provided an opportunity to meet with other entrepreneurs in the early stages of their business ventures. We were able to share our journeys, ideas, thoughts, questions and experiences in a supportive environment, and the weekly meetings helped create accountability for our progress throughout the program. This was important for me, because I had been working on my business idea for years but had felt unable to take the next step. At each stage of the program, I was able to address and overcome some of the barriers that had kept my business concept from becoming a reality, and the positive relationship built with my mentor was pivotal in this process. By the end of the eight weeks, I was not only ready to present my pitch, but put the initial phase of my business plan into action."

Australian UAV drone services expands into the Riverina

Australian UAV Pty Ltd (AUAV) drone services announced today the continued expansion of its business with a new location in Wagga Wagga, NSW.

In recent years drone data has provided increased efficiency and safety across a wide range of industries. Drone aerial mapping of land and the environment allows for more effective analysis, planning and monitoring over time. Precise and detailed 3D data can record the condition of any site or asset, from heritage items through to maintenance inspections of high-value assets and infrastructure. Digital capture reduces the need for people to travel to site and avoids most work at heights or in hazardous conditions.

The opening of AUAV’s Wagga Wagga office recognises the city’s position as a major regional centre, with a growth rate exceeding the national average and with important new economic developments underway such as the Intermodal Freight & Logistics hub. “We’re excited to be bringing this technology directly into the heart of regional NSW”, says AUAV’s NSW Operations Manager, Andrew Chapman. “We will be able to better service the area, be more responsive to local events, and avoid the travel costs from our Sydney and Melbourne offices”.

Regional areas stand to benefit from drone technology to perhaps an even greater degree than the capital cities, due to the large expanse of land and environment needing to be managed and the distances involved when mobilising engineers and other specialists to project sites. Drones are the perfect way to cover more ground in regions where there are often less staff available. For example a drone aerial survey can typically achieve in an hour what a traditional land survey team would cover in a day.

The expansion also represents a positive move for jobs growth in Wagga Wagga and other regional areas for highly-skilled technical and engineering roles.

In addition to AUAV’s most common inquiries around survey, engineering projects and assisting local councils, it is anticipated there will be specific requirements in the region around irrigation design, flood modelling and environmental management, as well as opportunities to work with the university on development projects and to provide high-quality research data. “CSU has run an innovative teaching and research program in the areas of precision agriculture and remote sensing which have incorporated drone technology for a number of years”, says Dr Remy Dehaan, Senior Lecturer in the School of Agriculture and Wine Sciences. “We’ve done some projects with AUAV in the past and are excited to see them setting up here and look forward to future collaborations. Combined with the university program and Silvertone drone manufacturing, Wagga is now very much a hub for drone innovation in the region.”

The new Wagga Wagga location is helmed by Lachlan Feeney, previously a member of the Australian Defence Force and more recently working with the local branch of the NSW Office of Environment and Heritage. Lachlan has a degree in Environmental and Spatial Science, and is also completing a Masters of Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems, making him a perfect fit for AUAV’s work in the area. “I love the Riverina area and in particular our Murrumbidgee River”, says Lachlan. “I’m excited to see what we can achieve working with the local government and industry to take best advantage of this new technology to improve the environment and grow our local economy”.

AUAV is a leading provider of drone flight services and data solutions throughout Australia, with existing offices in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth, Hobart and regional centres. The company is on a fast-growth trajectory since it was founded in 2013, with a focus on large area drone mapping and the inspection of assets and infrastructure for Top 500 companies and government agencies throughout the country.

For more information contact AUAV’s NSW Operations Manager Andrew Chapman (0488 130 900, andrew.chapman@auav.com.au) or Lachlan Feeney (0417 026 318, lachlan.feeney@auav.com.au).
