The Esperance Rock Lobster Working Group interim report by the chairman Mr. A. Pallot to the Western Australia Fishing Industry.

In July 1985 the Minister for Fisheries released a discussion paper titled Arrangements for entry to all fisheries off and along the Western Australian coast for consideration by all members of the fishing industry. The Australian Fishing Industry Council (W.A. Branch), now the Western Australian Fishing Industry Council (Inc), responded to the discussion paper in March 1986. The following were included in the Council\u27s recommendations: 1. The rock lobster fishery near Esperance be a limited entry fishery. 2. The bench mark date for determining access by April 30, 1985. 3. that the Minister for fisheries establish a representative Government/Industry Working Group to prepare a management plan for the fishery. 4. The Working Group as a matter of procedure to submit draft proposals to the participating industry for its consideration prior to submitting a final report to the Minister for Fisheries

UX-FFE Model : An Experimentation of a new innovation process dedicated to a mature industrial company

Most of mature companies, operating through a certain form of repeat business in producing incremental innovations, have lost their ability to conduct radical or breakthrough innovations. While this is not necessarily a bad strategy for short-term sustainability, this is more questionable for future growth and long-term sustainability. Hence, we present in this paper a new innovation model, named UX-FFE because it combines both User eXperience and Fuzzy Front-End approaches. It is intended to tackle economical and social challenges of a successful innovation process. Beyond the systemic processes, like the FFE, addressing the economic stake of a company, our model includes an UX-based process in order to address also the social stake. Then, we explain how this new innovation model was concretely implemented, through the use of several techniques and tools, within a mature industrial company. Finally, we unveil the results of this innovation process experiment for evaluating its potential to overcome both economical and social challenges.Company SOURIAU ESTERLIN

Mapping the landscapes of the Stalinist mass repressions

Publisher Copyright: © 2022 Pallot J and Gavrilova S.In this article, we focus on the ways in which a variety of different carceral techniques used to punish and exploit people's labour during the Stalin period (1927-1953) in the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR) created a distinctive landscape of repression. Using the tools of historical geographic information science (GIS) to map the material landscape, we foreground space in the discussion of the USSR's exceptional history of repression. The 'carceral conditions' frame allows us to deconstruct boundaries erected over more than half a century of writing the history of the USSR that have maintained artificial distinctions between the victims and impacts of different punishment modalities. In the article, we follow the example of the Stanford Holocaust Geographies Project in combining quantitative and textual data with the spatial analytical tools of geovisualisation to reveal the patterns of events as the Stalinist repressive apparatus extended its reach across Soviet space. In fixing the geolocation of carceral institutions and layering the resultant pattern with different types of qualitative and quantitative information in the same visual space, we hope to counter some of the myths and generalizations that exist in the literature about the geography of Soviet gulag. We use the case study of Perm' region in the Urals to highlight the spatiality of the production of the material landscape of repression in one region. Our aim is to position the USSR in the now substantial geographical literature discussing the twentieth century history of crimes against humanity and genocide and to suggest to historians that the geovisualisation of data can add a new dimension their studies of the Stalin period.Peer reviewe

Ethnic and religious identities in Russian penal institutions: A case study of Uzbek Transnational Muslim prisoners

Russia has become one of the main migration hubs worldwide following the collapse of the Soviet Union. The vast majority of migrant workers travel to Russia from three Central Asian countries. However, Russian immigration laws and policies are ambiguous and highly punitive. The result is that many migrants resort to undocumented status working in the shadow economy, which places them in a disadvantaged and precarious position. In this position they are vulnerable to becoming targets of the Russian criminal justice system as they take to crime to overcome economic uncertainty, become embroiled in interpersonal conflicts ending in violence, or fall victim to fabricated criminal charges initiated by Russian police officers under pressure to produce their monthly quota of arrests. The impact on Russian penal institutions is that they have become ethnically, culturally, and religiously diverse sites as a consequence of the incarceration of growing numbers of transnational prisoners. Using person-to-person interviews conducted in Uzbekistan with men and women who served sentences in Russian penal institutions during the past two decades, we show in this article how the large-scale migratory processes have transformed Russian prisons into sites of ethnic and religious plurality, in which formal rules and informal sub-cultures - the colony regime, so-called thieves' law (vorovskoy zakon), ethnic solidarity norms, and Sharia law - coexist and clash in new ways compared with the status quo ante. Thus, we argue there is a need to revise the prevailing understanding about the power dynamics in Russian penal institutions. Our findings undermine the prison service's insistence of the ethnic and ethno-religious neutrality and cosmopolitanism of Russian penal space, which is presented as a latter-day manifestation of the Soviet-era 'friendship of nations' policy. Russian prisons today must be understood as sites of ethnic and religious pluralism

How much does style matter? Investigating legibility and speed of writing in Year 2 children

Efficient transcription skills underpin the writing process and have been shown to explain variance in both quality and quantity of written composition. Although there is broad consensus that the development of legible handwriting produced at sufficient speed is a priority in the early years of school, there is much debate about how this is best achieved. The present study compared the performance of two groups of Year 2 pupils, with contrasting instructional regimes and experience, across a range of tasks assessing writing speed and legibility, and spelling. Participants from School M (n=74) had initially been taught to form individual (manuscript) letters and had only been introduced to joining at the end of Year 1; while participants from School CC (n=39) had been taught to form letters with entry strokes from the baseline since school-entry and a continuous cursive style had been promoted throughout. Results showed that participants from School CC were more productive than those from School M; however, participants at School M produced text that was more legible. The evidence regarding the merits of particular regimes and styles is not conclusive, nor is a secure relationship between handwriting style and spelling established. However, for both settings, findings provide useful implications for practice

Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership: international trade law, health systems and public health

The London School of Economics and Political Science study Free trade agreements (FTAs) have the declared aim of seeking to increase global trade and promote economic growth. Historically, economic growth has led to improved population health. Yet this link is now weakening, and attention is being focussed on assessing the effect of FTAs on health and the ability of government to mitigate against negative impact. Within this context, this study presents an assessment of the health impact of the proposed FTA between the United States and the European Union
