Human Rights Watch reveals harassment, surveillance of Chinese students studying in Australia

Matthew Doran - 30 June 2021

1/2

As Bonnie Wong* watched a pro-democracy protest at the University of Queensland in mid-2019, she noticed some people loitering off to the side.

The student did not recognise them, but their presence triggered both curiosity and fear.

"They weren't participating in a protest, but just taking pictures of us," she said.

Bonnie hails from Hong Kong, and had been instrumental in helping to organise the rally.

The demands at the protest for Beijing to drop its highly contentious national security law, planned for the semi-autonomous city, attracted the attention of people she suspected to be pro-China activists.

"They actually send those pictures online to Chinese social media, for example Weibo, to publicly defame us and try to expose our identities," she said.

"[That] will put us at risk, to say that we are actually separators, and we are challenging the security or the national security of China, which is definitely not the case.

"I'm very worried about my family back home, so I seldom talk to them about these kinds of activism that I do."

Bonnie said one of the other organisers of the rally, who is a member of the persecuted Uyghur minority, felt the full force of reprisals after the protest.

"After a certain period of time, he suddenly received a phone call from [Chinese Communist Party] agents," she said.

"But then the phone call was actually a video call, and in the video his mum actually got sent to the concentration camp in Xinjiang.

"This is very concerning, and this is definitely exposing how dangerous it is just to speak up at protests at universities."

Students fear being 'doxed'

Bonnie is among almost 50 students and academics who spoke to Human Rights Watch, as it investigated allegations of intimidation, harassment and surveillance of Chinese and Hong Kong students on Australian university campuses.

Many reported concerns about being "doxed", which is when people on social media share personal details about individuals, such as their home address, without their consent.

But for others the fear of reprisals went much further, as they dreaded what would happen to their family and friends if they made a stand on issues such as the political situation in Hong Kong.

Researcher Sophie McNeill said the behaviour by supporters of the Chinese state was fuelling an atmosphere of anxiety across the country, and students and academics were choosing to not express honestly held opinions so as not to rock the boat.

"It was really quite shocking to see how pervasive and common not only harassment and intimidation, but it's the self-censorship, I think, that is really quite shocking," Ms McNeill said.

"We verified three cases of students who had their parents back home in the mainland visited by the police or questioned because of activities that they had engaged in in Australia.

"We interviewed people who had been teaching Chinese students for years and just said, 'look, I don't use negative examples of China anymore, because I'm worried about being reported on or doxed online, or I have already been talking about China now'."

Human Rights Watch said the activities that attracted the attention of Chinese authorities and supporters ranged from the fairly mundane, such as creating a personal Twitter account (where Twitter is blocked in China), through to participating in pro-democracy rallies and debating the sovereignty of Taiwan in university tutorials.

Ms McNeill said she had confirmed one Chinese student who had set up a social media profile in Australia had his passport confiscated once he returned to China.

"Someone who expressed support for pro-democracy movements in Australia was threatened with being reported to Chinese authorities. And it actually happened, and he's now suffering real personal repercussions for that."

Australia needs to be 'laying down a firm line'

Education Minister Alan Tudge said the Human Rights Watch report raised "deeply concerning issues".

"Any interference on our campuses by foreign entities cannot be tolerated," he said in a statement.

"We have already taken several actions to combat foreign interference and are working closely with the universities and we will soon be updating our university guidelines."

Mr Tudge said Federal Parliament's powerful Joint Committee on Intelligence and Security was already investigating national security risks in the higher education sector.

The Minister's concerns were echoed by the federal Opposition.

"One of the great benefits of an Australian university education should be that we can show students from around the world that freedom of thought, robust debate, and polite disagreement is healthy," Shadow Education Minister Tanya Plibersek said.

"It's important that universities protect these freedoms."

The Chinese Embassy in Canberra said the report was "rubbish".

"Human Rights Watch has decayed into a political tool for the West to attack and smear developing countries," a spokesman said.

"It is always biased on China."

The Human Rights Watch report made a number of recommendations as to how the situation could be improved for foreign students enrolled at Australian institutions, after finding many students were not reporting their concerns because they did not believe their complaints would be handled properly.

One of the organisation's demands was for universities to publicly acknowledge instances and allegations of harassment and intimidation.

"Laying down a firm line, letting students know that if you engage in this behaviour that it's violating the academic code of conduct, and you could lose your spot at the uni if you do it," Ms McNeil said.

Universities Australia chief executive Catriona Jackson was wary of what that might mean for the privacy of the students involved.

"That could be really very complex," she said.

But Ms Jackson conceded there was work to be done.

"Every single university leader will be saddened and concerned to read the details of the Human Rights Watch report," she said.

"I'd like to say I'm surprised, but no, we're not particularly surprised.

"It's not just one country, it's a number of countries — but certainly there are issues of students and staff not feeling free to speak, and that's absolutely not on."

Ms Jackson said the higher education sector was in deep discussion with the government on how to address issues of freedom of speech and interference on campuses.

"Universities just can't deal with this all by themselves, it's got to be a matter of it gets dealt with at a government level, as well as institution level," she said.

"Your heart does go out to those students who are afraid — they're afraid of what might happen when they go home.

"Universities can do lots of things, but they can't surround them and protect them when they're not even in the same country's institution."

According to Human Rights Watch, around 40 per cent of international students studying in Australia came from China.

Ms Jackson rejected suggestions universities were sweeping the issue under the carpet, concerned about losing the lucrative Chinese student market.

"I don't see any evidence at all that institutions are less forthright with a commitment to free academic inquiry and free speech on campus," she said.

Bonnie is adamant that despite the fear she has experienced, she would not stop advocating for causes she believed in.

"No matter how huge the threat is, I don't think we should stop, and I don't think I will stop," she said.

"This fight is not only related to Hong Kongers, but also Australians because I think the Australian authorities should be protecting Australian students and also stand up for what they used to stand up for.

"I don't feel protected here … and this is very disappointing for me."

Environment Minister Sussan Ley invites UN to inspect Great Barrier Reef

ADESHOLA ORE - JUNE 30, 2021

Federal Environment Minister Sussan Ley has formally invited UNESCO to visit the Great Barrier Reef and conduct an on-the-ground assessment, after the agency proposed declaring its health status was “in danger”.

Australia has vowed to fight a recent decision by the China-chaired UNESCO World Heri­tage Committee to downgrade the reef’s health class­ification without any consultation or any on-the-ground verification.

Last week, 11 countries backed Australia in denouncing UNESCO’s lack of consultation process following the draft listing.

Writing in The Australian on Wednesday, Ms Ley said an in-person visit to the reef by committee representatives was the only way to assess its status.

“The reef is big enough to be seen from space, but you can’t see it from an office in Paris, and that is the least that was deserved in this instance,” she said.

Ms Ley said Australia was being used as a “poster child” for the wider climate change agenda, which she argued eroded both confidence in, and the credibility of, the World Heritage Committee’s processes. “UNESCO representatives admit they want to sound an international warning note about the dire fate that awaits all countries if global warming is not halted,” she said. “If UNESCO wants to make an example of Australia, despite all it is doing to protect its reefs, what incentive is there for those who do not have the same level of resources?”

She acknowledged climate change was the biggest threat facing the Great Barrier Reef, but said it required global action. “Are the (WHC) advisers seriously sugges­t­ing Australia can single-handedly change the emissions trajectory of the whole world?” she said.

Ms Ley said following past bleaching events in 2016, 2017 and 2020, Australia had refocused its efforts to invest in research on heat-resistant corals and water-quality strategies.

She said in May the World Heritage Centre advised Australia’s officials that none of its properties would be considered for an “in-danger” listing this year.But a senior UNESCO official told Guardian Australia that Australia had not been provided – either formally or informally – any assurances before the decision was announced.

The draft listing will be presented for ratification at the 44th meeting of the World Heritage Committee next month. The Morrison government will heavily lobby members of the World Heritage Committee to push back against the ruling. However, it faces an uphill battle because a majority of the body’s members have signed up to China’s Belt and Road Initiative.

Labor has accused the government of years of inaction ­on protecting the reef, pointing to past UNESCO decisions and bleaching events which the opposition claims should have “sounded alarms” for the government.

Australia shouldn’t be poster boy for climate change perils

SUSSAN LEY - JUNE 30, 2021

1/2

Once again, the sometimes troubled waters of the Great Barrier Reef are being politicised as a lens through which the world can argue climate change.

Global climate change threatens landscapes, biodiversity, nature and people. Tropical and temperate coral reefs, and the marine ecosystems they support, are no exceptions.

Climate change is real and it is the biggest threat facing the reef; it requires global action rather than global promises.

Our vast and magnificent reef remains a natural wonder and an amazing place to visit, but it also has been through a rough few years from warming oceans, tropical cyclones and coral bleaching events in 2016, 2017 and last year.

As Environment Minister, I did not back away from the sobering assessment of “poor to very poor” when I released the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park Authority’s 2019 Outlook report.

Investment in the reef, in partnership with the Queensland government, has risen to more than $3bn under the Reef 2050 Plan, a commitment the World Heritage Committee continues to praise.

Notwithstanding the realities we face, I was stunned last week by the draft recommendation to the WHC that singled out our reef for an “in danger” listing. I say this because an “in danger” listing effectively asks a country to change or accelerate its management of the listed site to mitigate the threat. Are the WHC advisers seriously suggesting Australia can single-handedly change the emissions trajectory of the whole world?

UNESCO representatives admit they want to sound an international warning note about the dire fate that awaits all countries if global warming is not halted. Australia shouldn’t be the poster child of a wider agenda.

If the World Heritage List is to be used as a lever for global emissions policy, instead of an assessment of how sites are being managed by individual countries, then there are many more sites around the world, from reefs to rainforests and glaciers, that should face the spectre of imminent danger listing.

If Australians ceased driving our cars and using fossil fuels tomorrow, the threat of climate change to the reef and the impact of warming oceans would remain.

We need broader global action and that is why Australia is forging ahead with international partnerships on hydrogen as we lead the world in the uptake of renewable energy.

As a signatory to the Paris Agreement, we are party to the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change, the correct forum for deliberations on emissions policy. We take our responsibilities seriously. If UNESCO wants to make an example of Australia, despite all it is doing to protect its reefs, what incentive is there for those who do not have the same level of resources?

Up and down the 2300km coastline of a 400,000sq km catchment, how do we maintain, support and engage our reef communities if we tell them that, regardless of the outstanding work they do, their life blood will be classified as in danger?

It promotes a false “reef is dead” narrative that risks affecting tourism and the 65,000 jobs the reef supports.

Internationally it also erodes confidence and credibility in the WHC process, which assesses 83 natural World Heritage properties as facing very high or high threats from climate change. Under the global threat logic of this draft decision, these properties, too, should be subject to the same treatment as Australia.

When considering a property for “in danger” listing, paragraphs 183 to 189 of the operational guidelines state “the committee shall develop, as far as possible, in consultation with the State Party, a Desired State of Conservation for the removal of the property from the In Danger List”. This did not occur.

In May, the World Heritage Centre advised our officials that none of Australia’s properties would be considered for “in danger” listing this year. This decision, based on a desktop review, did not include the latest science showing coral recovery and water quality improvements or the strength of collaborations on reef restoration and adaptation, and that is why it came as a shock.

The reef is big enough to be seen from space, but you can’t see it from an office in Paris, and that is the least that was deserved in this instance.

Australia is not on its own in expressing its broader international concerns. On June 23, 11 other countries, including France, Canada, Britain, Indonesia, Bangladesh, Poland, Hungary, Spain, Thailand and Turkey, wrote to UNESCO to add their collective voice to concerns about a broader lack of transparency and proper process in the lead-up to the 44th World Heritage Committee meeting next month.

I would be pleased to invite the World Heritage Centre to conduct a site visit to the Great Barrier Reef. This is the only way to assess its true state. From there, we can work together. That is what the World Heritage Convention is meant to be about: working together to protect iconic properties, not punishing one country to draw focus to a global threat that requires global co-operation and global commitment.

Sussan Ley is the federal Environment Minister.

SA DPP drops two charges in case against HIV+ pedophile Jadd William Brooker but says he is guilty of two more sex crimes

Two sex charges against an HIV+ pedophile who vowed to infect children and adults with the virus have been dropped – but two more will proceed, a court has heard.

Sean Fewster - June 30, 2021

Prosecutors have dropped two sex abuse charges filed against HIV+ pedophile Jadd William Brooker – but still allege he is guilty of yet more crimes against children.

Brooker appeared in the Adelaide Magistrates Court on Wednesday by video link, and was scheduled to answer the four outstanding charges laid against him.

However Tim Clarke, for Brooker, said that could not occur because attempts to negotiate a resolution to those remaining charges had been unsuccessful.

“The prosecution is going to say it’s not proceeding with two of the counts, but is proceeding with the other two,” he said.

“I’ve sought to obtain instructions from my client … regrettably, because of the need to get (copies of the) electronic evidence, he’s not been in a position to give those instructions.”

Brooker, 38, of Glenelg East, has already earned two sentencing discounts for pleading guilty to dozens of child sex charges.

He earned up to 40 per cent off his prison time for confessing to seven crimes just weeks after his arrest in September, and 15 per cent for 32 guilty pleas in May.

Previously, the court has heard Brooker expressed his intention to infect adults and children with HIV and filmed himself attempting to do so, meaning a victim had to be tested.

Prosecutors alleged he had committed “category five” crimes – involving acts such as coerced bondage, sadism, torture or bestiality – against six children and teenagers.

They also alleged the 4.5 million files of child abuse material on Brooker’s electronic devices could link him to pedophiles in Australia and around the world.

Investigations into that material led to the arrests of former Labor staffer Ben Waters, former senior corrections officer Stewart Iain Berry and a third man.

On Wednesday, Mr Clarke asked for further time to speak with Brooker and ascertain what pleas he would enter to the two remaining charges.

The state’s chief magistrate, Judge Mary-Louise Hribal, remanded Brooker in custody until next month.

Lockdown measures extended in Australia amid COVID-19 outbreak

Renju Jose - June 30, 2021

SYDNEY, June 30 (Reuters) - Australian officials extended lockdown and social distancing measures to more of the country on Wednesday, with four major cities already under a hard lockdown in a race to contain an outbreak of the highly contagious Delta coronavirus variant.

Around one in two Australians are under stay-at-home orders, with millions of others subjected to movement curbs and mandatory mask-wearing amid COVID-19 flare-ups in several locations.

With more than five million residents of greater Sydney under a two-week lockdown until July 9, New South Wales state reported 22 new locally transmitted COVID-19 cases on Wednesday, all linked to prior infections.

That was up slightly from the previous two days, but still below the peak of the current outbreak of 30 new cases reported on Sunday.

"New South Wales is demonstrating a steady rate of cases at this stage … but to date our fears about huge escalation haven't materialised and we certainly want to keep it that way," state Premier Gladys Berejiklian told reporters in Sydney.

With a total of around 170 new locally transmitted cases since the first infection was detected two weeks ago in a limousine driver who transported overseas airline crew, NSW is the worst-affected state or territory in the current outbreak.

Residents of Sydney, Perth, Brisbane and Darwin were joined in lockdown on Wednesday by those of the outback town of Alice Springs, the gateway to UNESCO World Heritage-listed Uluru. Officials issued stay-at-home orders for the town after a potentially infected traveller used the airport.

South Australia, meanwhile, reported its first locally transmitted cases for 2021, but stopped short of imposing a full lockdown, saying they believed the threat was contained.

Officials instead limited home gathering and urged people to wear masks in public after they reported five new cases - a miner who had returned home from a Northern Territory mine and his wife and children who had been in self-isolation.

Elsewhere in the country, Queensland reported three new locally acquired cases, Western Australia logged one and the Northern Territory recorded none.

Singapore on Wednesday said travellers from Australia will have to undergo home quarantine for a week from Friday.

VACCINE WOES

Lockdowns, tough social distancing, swift contact tracing and a high community compliance have helped Australia quash prior outbreaks and keep its COVID-19 numbers relatively low. It has reported just over 30,550 cases and 910 deaths since the pandemic began.

But less than 5% of its 20 million adult population has been fully vaccinated, leading to criticism of a sluggish national inoculation drive.

The federal government on Monday announced it would indemnify doctors who administer AstraZeneca's (AZN.L) vaccine shots to people under 60, after previously preferencing Pfizer (PFE.N) doses for that age group due to blood clot concerns.

Two deaths have been linked to the AstraZeneca vaccine, a 52-year-old woman and a 48-year-old woman.

However, Queensland state authorities said they would not endorse the move, saying it would unnecessarily put their younger population at risk.

"I don't want an 18-year-old in Queensland dying from a clotting illness who, if they got COVID probably wouldn't die," Queensland state Chief Health Officer Jeannette Young said in a media conference.

Prince Andrew’s ex believes Ghislaine Maxwell was ‘brainwashed’ by Jeffrey Epstein

Lee Brown - June 29, 2021

A socialite ex of Britain’s Prince Andrew insisted Tuesday that their “secretive” mutual friend Ghislaine Maxwell was “brainwashed” by late pedophile Jeffrey Epstein.

“I think she was so brainwashed by [Epstein] and so in love with him that she lost the reality of what she was doing,” Lady Victoria Hervey, 44, told ITV’s “Lorraine” talk show, according to a clip shared by Metro.

“It was very shocking when I first heard everything about her because that was not the Ghislaine I knew,” insisted Hervey, the daughter of the 6th Marquess of Bristol.

“I think she got in way too deep and just couldn’t leave,” she said of Maxwell, who remains in custody in Brooklyn awaiting trial on federal sex trafficking charges tied to Epstein.

Hervey said she has known Maxwell — the daughter of disgraced media baron Robert Maxwell — at least 20 years. She has previously said Maxwell introduced her to Andrew, whom she dated briefly in 1999.

“She was always the centre of every fun party and she was a vibrant character that a lot of people wanted to be around,” Hervey said, recalling one party where former President Bill Clinton joined them all.

“She loved fame and power. If you weren’t going to be of any use to her, she wasn’t going to pay you any attention.

“Bill Clinton was the president at the time and I think she liked to flaunt that she was friends with someone so powerful,” she said.

Still, Hervey said Maxwell “always exuded this air of mystery about her, you just never really knew where she’d flown in from and was quite secretive about her life.”

Hervey said she noted Epstein’s behavior with young women, but put it down to typical behavior of many rich men she met in high society in both London and New York.

“I think there’s a lot of people in his position that like to be surrounded by young models — it didn’t look that different to what I’d seen before,” she said.

“I was very young and very naive and didn’t realise what was happening.”

Hervey believes Epstein gave her pal the financial security she needed, while she provided access to “all these powerful people.”

“Everybody knew Ghislaine Maxwell but no one knew him. It was a partnership they had,” she said.

Hervey said that it will be “really tough” for Maxwell in custody.

“If you’re used to luxury, it will be hell on Earth for her I’m sure,” she said.

“I think she’s very tough but it’s a front, I don’t think she is as tough on the inside as what she exudes on the outside,” she warned.

Maxwell is accused of procuring four girls for Epstein to abuse in the 1990s and early 2000s and also charged with lying under oath. She has pleaded not guilty and maintains her innocence.

Epstein killed himself in his Manhattan lockup in August 2019 while awaiting further serious sex charges. Andrew has repeatedly denied any knowledge of his late pal’s crimes and denied having sex with one of his accusers.

Chinese rail firm refutes 'forced labor' claims in Australia

Global Times - Jun 29, 2021

Chinese railway equipment manufacturer KTK Group on Tuesday pushed back against claims from some Australian media outlets that the company used "forced labor" from Northwest China's Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, saying that the allegations are "groundless" and its overseas business operations remain normal.

A staff at the company told the Global Times on Tuesday that the claim was an old slander that started a while ago, and the company has already clarified the matter and even asked third-party organizations to inspect the company to reassure its clients.

"We did hire dozens of Uygur workers before, as part of a poverty alleviation program, but the workers were all voluntary," said the staff, adding that the allegations were "groundless."

Some Australian media reports recently claimed that a billion-dollar train deal in Perth involving French firm Alstom was linked to "forced labor" in China, because KTK Group was a supplier.

The staff at KTK said that the company has businesses both in France and Australia, and Alstom has been its customer for many years.

The company's products cover all the main bullet train models and major urban rail vehicles in China, and they are exported to dozens of markets, including the UK, France and Australia, according to a company report published in August 2020.

The "forced-labor" allegation regarding the Chinese trainmaker has circulated in some foreign media reports since July 2020, when KTK became one of the 11 companies on a US blacklist over the allegation.

After the US blacklist came out, the transport minister of Australia's Queensland state, Mark Bailey, asked his department to urgently review whether parts manufactured by KTK overseas and installed in the state's new trains involved any forced labor, while looking for alternative suppliers, media reports said.

But the government in Australia's Victoria state recently assured that there was no so-called forced labor involved in KTK Group's business. New trains for Melbourne's railway network would continue to be built with parts from KTK, the Australian Broadcasting Corporation reported on June 15.

Queensland's Chief Health Officer rejects Prime Minister's comments on AstraZeneca's COVID-19 vaccine for under-40s

Stephanie Zillman - 30 June 2021

Queensland's Chief Health Officer Jeannette Young has made clear her view on people under the age of 40 getting AstraZeneca vaccinations — don't do it.

Her remarks followed a surprise announcement by Prime Minister Scott Morrison saying anyone under the age of 40 could now approach their GP and request the AstraZeneca vaccine.

But Dr Young has rejected the Prime Minister's suggestion.

"I do not want under-40s to get AstraZeneca," she said.

"It is rare, but they are at an increased risk of getting the rare clotting syndrome. We've seen up to 49 deaths in the UK from that syndrome.

"I don't want an 18-year-old in Queensland dying from a clotting illness who, if they got COVID, probably wouldn't die.

"We have had very few deaths due to COVID-19 in Australia in people under the age of 50 and wouldn't it be terrible that our first 18-year-old in Queensland who dies related to this pandemic, died because of the vaccine.

Dr Young said she "genuinely did not understand" why Mr Morrison had departed from the advice of the Australian Technical Advisory Group on Immunisation (ATAGI).

"We are not in a position that I need to ask young, fit, healthy people to put their health on the line getting a vaccine that could potentially, significantly harm them."

Dr Young said she supported the latest advice from ATAGI that AstraZeneca vaccine should only be administered to people over 60 due to the risk of a rare blood-clotting syndrome.

She said that despite the current lockdowns and outbreak fears, there were not sufficient cases to warrant the risk.

"We are not [where] Indonesia is," Dr Young said.

"If I was the Chief Health Officer in Indonesia, I might be giving different advice."

Western Australia Premier Mark McGowan also said he agreed with Dr Young and that people under 40 should not get the AstraZeneca COVID vaccination, based on health advice.

"That is the advice we have and that is the national advice from the immunisation experts," Mr McGowan said.

'It's a discussion for doctors'

Australia's Chief Medical Officer Paul Kelly argued that AstraZeneca had technically always been available to anyone over the age of 18, and that the Prime Minister's announcement related to indemnity for GPs.

"There's a preference for Pfizer up to the age of 60. But that preference is a preference. It's a discussion for doctors to have with their own patients and the work through their own risk and benefit in relation to that," Dr Kelly said.

Dr Young said she would be attending an urgent meeting with the Commonwealth and other state chief health officers to discuss the confusion.

But as Dr Young spoke on Wednesday morning, Commonwealth's expert medical panel member Dr Nick Coatsworth expressed a different view on Twitter.

"Well, I guess that put me at odds with the QLD CHO," he tweeted.

In response to Dr Young's comments, he also tweeted that the debate had raised a "critical ethical principle of autonomy" and that the federal government should not be "paternalistic".

"Adults should be allowed to consent to an intervention with a 3-in-100,000 risk of thrombosis with thrombocytopenia syndrome and less than 1-in-1,000,000 of death," he tweeted.

'No issues with it'

Disability support worker Jaiden Ivers, 23, has already had his first dose of AstraZeneca and will receive a second vaccination in a fortnight.

He was in the first tranche of frontline workers to be vaccinated and did so before the health advice for particular age groups changed.

"It was probably a week later that they advised people in my age group not to get AstraZeneca," Mr Ivers said.

But he said the changing advice around AstraZeneca did not concern him at all.

"I have no issues with it whatever. Just knowing it's such a small proportion of people who have adverse reactions, I guess the advantages just outweigh the risks for me personally."

Queensland Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk said National Cabinet had not agreed to the Prime Minister's announcement.

"My message to Queenslanders today is: please listen to Dr Young's advice and listen to the health experts when it comes to the vaccine," Ms Palaszczuk said.

‘A personal choice’: NSW clinics will not give AstraZeneca to under-40s

Mary Ward - June 30, 2021

1/2

NSW authorities have held firm on health advice regarding the COVID-19 vaccine, saying the state’s vaccine clinics will not administer AstraZeneca to under-40s.

Chief Health Officer Kerry Chant said on Wednesday that state-run clinics, including the mass vaccination centre at Sydney Olympic Park, would not change their protocol.

On Monday night, the Prime Minister said anyone could receive AstraZeneca at a GP clinic despite vaccine advisory group ATAGI recommending Pfizer as the preferred shot for under-60s, after announcing an indemnity scheme for practitioners.

Over the past 24 hours, the Australian Medical Association and federal Health Minister Greg Hunt have asked people to follow ATAGI’s advice, with the Royal Australian College of GPs calling for clarity on the rules.

“I think ATAGI is the group that we need to respect,” Dr Chant said, adding that “ATAGI has said that people can make personal choices, but they need to be informed”.

“The view I have is that, in a mass vaccination clinic, the detailed risk discussions cannot take place and they are discussions best to have with your GP.”

NSW Health clinics administer the Pfizer vaccine to frontline workers, people with pre-existing health conditions and people in their 40s and 50s.

People aged 60 and over have been encouraged to received AstraZeneca at a GP or Commonwealth clinic, although bookings are available at NSW Health sites for over-60s without a GP or others seeking a second dose.

Dr Chant said younger people should discuss their personal circumstances with a GP, noting NSW Health was looking to increase Pfizer appointments in coming weeks, provided supply was there.

From July until August, NSW will receive between 104,910 and 120,600 Pfizer doses a week.

Last week, a spokesperson for the federal Health Department said Pfizer would be available at all 136 Commonwealth vaccination centres before the end of July. A small number of GPs will also start to administer the vaccine next month.

There are also plans for a new mass vaccination hub at Lake Macquarie as well as a Wollongong site, confirmed by Premier Gladys Berejiklian on Wednesday.

The Premier said Monday’s national cabinet agreed to an indemnity scheme, not a change to the health advice.

“What we need to do as a state government is follow the federal regulatory health advice, which is that AstraZeneca is offered for over 60s and obviously second doses are strongly, strongly advised,” she said.

She encouraged the state’s 3 million residents aged 60 and over to come forward for their shot.

AMA NSW President Danielle McMullen said the state’s position was “fair enough”.

“The ATAGI advice hasn’t changed and the preferred advice for under 60s is Pfizer, but we recognise there are some people who will want the AstraZeneca now and the best place for them to receive all the relevant information is at a GP.”

NSW/ACT chair of Royal Australian College of GPs Charlotte Hespe said the college’s position mirrored NSW’s: younger people should talk to a GP.

“If they, weighing up the risk, still feel they want to access a vaccination, that is their choice,” she said, noting some people may not be included in Phase 1a or 1b but still consider themselves at higher risk of catching the virus or transmitting it to someone vulnerable, such as retail workers or people who live with grandparents.

“With [Sydney’s Delta COVID-19 variant], you can be behaving yourself and still manage to catch it while walking through the shopping centre.”

Words were stronger in Queensland, where Chief Health Officer Jeannette Young said she did not want under-40s to get AstraZeneca.

“I don’t want an 18-year-old in Queensland dying from a clotting illness who, if they got COVID probably wouldn’t die,” she said.

Western Australian Premier Mark McGowan also said he wanted under-40s to only receive Pfizer.

“The Commonwealth has made a decision to allow for that and provided an indemnity for GPs who do that. The health advice we have is that they shouldn’t,” he said.

Mr McGowan also said people aged 60 and older should be allowed to get Pfizer to tackle hesitancy

Dr Hespe said politicians’ announcements regarding the vaccine over the past two days had been “chaos”.

“It would be really good to have everyone on the same page,” she said.

ATAGI moved to recommend Pfizer as the preferred vaccine for under-60s earlier this month, in response to a very rare blood clotting syndrome which previously led it to make the same recommendation for under-50s.

“For those aged 60 years and above, the individual benefits of receiving a COVID-19 vaccine are greater than in younger people,” the advisory group said.

“COVID-19 Vaccine AstraZeneca can be used in adults aged under 60 years for whom Comirnaty [Pfizer] is not available.”

According to the most recent TGA vaccine safety report there have been 39 confirmed cases and 25 probable cases of thrombosis with thrombocytopenia syndrome (TTS), and two deaths likely linked, from approximately 4.2 million administered doses of the AstraZeneca vaccine in Australia.

Tasmanian Labor leader to stand aside during investigation into allegations of sexual harassment

Emily Baker - 30 June 2021

1/2

Tasmanian Labor leader David O'Byrne will stand aside while the party investigates allegations he sexually harassed a junior union employee more than a decade ago.

Reading from a statement outside Parliament, Mr O'Byrne said he believed text exchanges and a kiss with a 22-year-old employee at the Liquor, Hospitality and Miscellaneous were consensual, but "I now understand that this was not the case".

"This matter has caused me to reflect deeply on the nature of consent, and I've come to appreciate why the person concerned says our interactions were not consensual."

Mr O'Byrne said he had written to the complainant to apologise.

"I genuinely thank her for having the strength to bring this issue to light, and I also thank other women who have advocated and spoken about their experiences to inform the current national conversation about consent."

He said he would stand aside for the duration of Labor's internal investigation.

"I acknowledge that my behaviour did not meet the standards I would expect of myself," he said.

"I also acknowledge that I have let down my wife and family."

The complainant, who the ABC has not named, wrote in her complaint that working at the LHMU in 2007 and 2008 under Mr O'Byrne "had a negative and significant effect on my mental health".

The complaint — obtained by the ABC — was sent to senior members of the party's national executive, including federal Opposition leader Anthony Albanese.

She claimed that he sent her "sexually suggestive, vulgar and unwanted sexual text messages" and twice kissed her outside of work without her consent.

The woman alleged that when she asked Mr O'Byrne to stop messaging her, she was called into a meeting and given a verbal warning regarding her performance.

"I felt it was nothing to do with my performance and everything to do with me not succumbing to the ongoing advances of David towards me, and my recent message telling him to stop with the sexually inappropriate messages," she wrote.

"During this meeting and up until my resignation, David's behaviour and attitude towards me was very different.

"He didn't talk to me much, he was rude or short with me and treated me differently to the others, but now in a negative and sometimes nasty way rather than the favourable tone he had used previously."

The woman's complaint said she then moved to a new job at the Health and Community Services Union.

Her complaint references two former colleagues she alleges directly witnessed Mr O'Byrne's behaviour, and another three people she said had been made aware of her concerns between 2007 and 2010 — including Clark Labor MP Ella Haddad and Clark independent MP Kristie Johnston, both of whom are close to the complainant.

Ms Johnston released a statement this afternoon, saying she was aware of the allegations and that "they need to be appropriately and thoroughly investigated".

"It is appropriate that Mr O'Byrne has stood aside as Leader whilst these investigations are underway," she said.

When contacted by the ABC, the eyewitnesses would not confirm the allegations.

One person — a HACSU colleague — has written a statement in support of the complainant.

That person wrote that, early in 2008 and just after starting at HACSU, the complainant had broken down in tears when sharing details of Mr O'Byrne's alleged conduct.

The colleague said the complainant had read out "very inappropriate" texts and shared details of the two alleged attempted kisses.

"I found [the complainant's] disposition to be bubbly and energetic and was able to interact with all members of the staff," the person's supporting statement said.

"However, there were occasions when I observed [the complainant] become anxious, nervous and at times distraught when Mr O'Byrne's name was either mentioned or he was there in person attending various places or events, as part of official union business and/or Labor/Left affiliation discussions, functions and conferences."

Woman 'emboldened' by Brittany Higgins and Grace Tame

The woman's complaint acknowledged it had taken almost 15 years to come forward but said she was worried she would not be believed.

She is part of Labor's right faction, while Mr O'Byrne is senior within Labor's left.

The woman wrote that Brittany Higgins and Grace Tame had "emboldened me to finally stand up".

"I'm tired of carrying this weight and I'm tired of the hypocrisy of David himself," the complaint said.

"He knows what he did to me, but he still advertises himself as a supporter and fighter for women's rights."

The complainant did not provide further comment when contacted by the ABC.

It is understood the party's national secretary Paul Erickson has referred the complaint to state secretary Stuart Benson. The status of the investigation is not known.

"The ALP will not comment on any matter that relates to our Code of Conduct and associated policies, save to say that our policies are being complied with," Mr Erikson said in a statement to the ABC.

Mr Benson and Mr Albanese's office did not respond to request for comment.
