With reports of people fraudulently claiming from the NDIS, a squad of 100 officers has been created to investigate those abusing the system.
Dan Tehan, the Minister for Social Services said that the Government has so far spent $8 billion AUD on the NDIS last year and this figure would grow to $22 billion AUD by 2022. This news comes after one of the scheme’s architects said that there was “no excuse” for Government staffing caps.
He said that the Government wants to make sure that the funding “goes to those people who need it” and that they were “putting criminals on notice”.
The Government seems particularly focused on reports of organised crime groups exploiting the NDIS. Recent stats have shown that there were as many as 500 allegations made regarding criminal misuse of the NDIS since its launch in 2016.
While it is still unclear if all of those allegations are accurate, Mr Tehan said that the numbers presented a large risk.
Mr Tehan said the creation of the fraud squad was to stop organised crime syndicates from “getting a foot in”.
The squad will draw from the AFP as well as local police members and other departments that are associated with the NDIS.
Neil Gaughan, the Deputy Commissioner of the AFP said that there was “intelligence to suggest” that fraud was taking place but that it “is quite minimal”.
The Deputy Commissioner also cited previous cases of fraud taking place in the family day care system under which government funds were misused. He said that they were aware of criminals “sniffing around” the NDIS.
He also mentioned that part of the squad’s job was going to be to try and patch weaknesses in the system to protect the NDIS from exploitation by criminal elements.
Michael Keenan, the Human Services Minister, said that his staff had had extensive experience in detecting and preventing fraud. He said that the Government was aware that most people were doing the right thing and that they were only going after a small group of abusers.


The Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) will also put up its own hotline number this month so that employees will have a chance to air their complaints against their employers, Undersecretary Joel Manglungsod said.
“Hopefully this month we will have our hotline. If the president has his own 8888 and 911, we will also have our own hotline that will operate 24/7)” Maglungsod said in a news briefing.
He said that through the hotline, contractual workers will be able to inform tge government of their violations being committed by their employers.
“We also call for the help of other unions to report [violations], and even the individual workers who are victim of these routines,” he added.
Maglungsod said the department has also established a technical working group to review and research on the issue of contractualization.
President Rodrigo Duterte has earlier ordered companies to stop the illegal practice of hiring workers as contractuals to save on costs.
Manglungsod said DOLE will crack go after companies practicing contractualization.
He also said the department will require private and public companies to provide their employees a general wage increase until the government has fixed the issue on a national minimum wage.
The DOLE official said the general increase will be taken from the company’s corporate profit.


Joys, Madrasati Initiatives Ink Agreement To Support Science Enthusiast Youth
(MENAFN- Jordan News Agency)
Amman, Oct. 2 (Petra) -- The Jordan Young Scientist (JoYS) initiative and Madrasati, an initiative launched by Her Majesty Queen Rania Al Abdullah, signed Sunday a memorandum of understanding to solidify their partnership and highlight the importance of implementing STEM-focused projects in schools across Jordan.
'The JoYS initiative is a new national initiative for Jordanian youth that is based on a proven model originally implemented in Ireland over fifty years ago with the aim of encouraging young people who wish to study science and leverage it to create change in society,' according to a statement by the Embassy of Ireland in Jordan, which oversaw the agreement.
It strives to transform Jordan by empowering young people to develop solutions to social, technological and economic challenges, through the application of evidence-based scientific approaches, the statement added.
Madrasati contributed to the first national JoYS exhibition which was held on the 8th of June 2022 by facilitating the participation of 10 public schools from several governorates across Jordan.
Over the next year, with the cooperation of the Madarsati Initiative, the JoYS program will be carried out nationwide with the expectation that the initiative will become a national competition for students studying science subjects in secondary schools.
The Embassy of Ireland in Jordan said it will also continue its role, pledging to continue to work with partners to ensure the initiative's success for many years to come.

MADISON — Paychecks have been mailed to the 14 Senate Democrats who fled Wisconsin rather than vote on a bill taking away collective bargaining rights from public workers.
Senate Majority Leader Scott Fitzgerald said Tuesday he decided to mail the checks to the AWOL Democrats on Friday even though the Senate had voted to keep them as a way to pressure Democrats to return.
Fitzgerald said he mailed the checks Friday because it was unclear whether the law allowed for the checks to be kept more than a couple days and because negotiations were going well.
Fitzgerald says he remains optimistic that the ongoing negotiations will lead to a solution.

Increased economic participation: By providing women with the skills, resources, and support they need to start and grow their own businesses, entrepreneurship programs can help to increase women’s economic participation and income-generating potential.
Improved financial stability: Access to funding and other resources can help women entrepreneurs to achieve financial stability and independence, which can have a positive impact on their personal and family lives.
Greater self-confidence: Entrepreneurship programs can help women to build their self-confidence and develop a sense of autonomy and control over their lives, which can have a positive impact on their mental health and well-being.
Enhanced leadership skills: By providing opportunities for mentorship, networking, and training, entrepreneurship programs can help women to develop their leadership skills and become more effective leaders in their businesses and communities.
Increased social impact: Women-led businesses are often more likely to have a positive social impact, such as creating jobs, supporting local communities, and promoting sustainability.

Former Prime Minister and Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf Chairman Imran Khan has termed the close aide of former first lady Bushra Bibi, Farah Khan, as “absolutely innocent”.
In a press conference today, the former premier stated that the corruption investigation against Farah Khan was “political vendetta” against him.
The PTI chairman’s comments come days after the national accountability watchdog launched an investigation against Farah Khan for possession of assets beyond means.
The National Accountability Bureau had said that a huge turnover of Rs847 million had been discovered in an account belonging to Farah Khan during the past three years.
In the press conference today, Imran Khan invoked the fact that Farah Khan was not a public office holder, implying that an investigation could not be conducted against her.
Imran Khan said that Farah Khan had been working in real estate and indicated that people associated with that business had made a lot of money in recent years.
The former premier emphasised that Farah Khan was completely innocent and a proper hearing should be carried out.
Furthermore, the PTI chairman said that he was presenting a white paper about the ruling coalition’s corruption cases launched in their own tenures from 2008 to 2018 so that the people could know about them.
The former premier alleged that the new government was doing away with cases, which was their true interest.
He said that Nawaz Sharif and Maryam Nawaz were on bail in the Panama Papers case, while the former had three properties along with businesses abroad, calling it the ‘tip of the iceberg’.
He added that there were money laundering cases against members of the current government.
He further alleged that they [the government] had transferred the investigator and investigating officer, while the special prosecutor had been told not to come.
The former prime minister also alleged that a drain using the public’s money was built towards the Ramzan Sugar Mills and that Shehbaz Sharif had used the prime minister’s plane in the past.
He also stated that the record of corruption cases against members of the ruling government might disappear soon and the current rulers would resume money laundering activities.
The former prime minister also talked about the Masjid-e-Nabwi incident and termed the case against him and other PTI leaders “foolish”.
He added that the government should be ashamed while laying down accusations that he [Imran] had planned the incident.
Imran Khan also criticised Chief Election Commissioner Sikandar Sultan Raja and said that his party had no confidence in him.
He also spoke about the party’s march to Islamabad in May, and said that it would be the “biggest ever”.
He said that he wanted the country to understand that this would be the biggest movement, and added that it would be peaceful.

BY JEFFREY ELAPA
MINERAL Resource Development Cooperation Managing Director Augustine Mano said PNG needs people and communities that want to help themselves to improve their lives.
Mr Mano made this remark when making a commitment of K50,000 for the next five years to a remote community in the Southern Highlands help sustain their community health post.
Mr Mano who visited the Marara village in Lai Valley on the border of Kandep district in the Enga province and Mendi Miunhu in the Southern Highlands last week said that he believes in people who wanted to help develop their community.
He said the attitude of taking things for granted was the reason why many communities lacked development but if people start to help develop their communities then many communities will change and the people would be able to enjoy changes.
He said the Marara community was one of those communities that have shown others by taking up their own initiative to help improve their lives despite being ignored by successive governments.
Mr Mano said since the people have taken up the initiative to help themselves, he would fund the community aid post with an annual funding of K10,000 for the next five years.
Meanwhile the Southern Highlands provincial health authority CEO Joseph Turian commended MRDC and the Management under Mr Mano for being a partner in the development of health services to the people of Southern Highlands Province.
“Even if I leave MRDC and become a private citizen, I will continue to fund K10,000 annual to maintain and sustain the aidpost because I support people and communities that have the spirit to volunteer to work hard and want to help themselves where they do not wait money from the government and the politics to come and help them.
“I want to help people who put time and effort to do something to help themselves and their communites. The country cannot change if the people continue to wait for free hand-outs. People need to volunteer and start to help themselves if we want the country to change,” he said.
Meanwhile the Southern Highlands provincial health authority CEO Joseph Turian commended MRDC and the Management under Mr Mano for being a partner in the development of health services to the people fo Southern Highlands.
He said MRDC has assisted health facilities like the Mendi general hospital and other health centres throughout the province.

Bilawal also targeted Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan saying that he has said that he will come to free the people of Sindh after the elections but if Imran wins he will play with resignation even in that case too.
Bilawal questioned Imran Khan why was he doing the long march. He said that PTI Chairman was playing with democracy in the country.
Bilawal said that the people of Sindh have been at the forefront of the right to freedom and the people of Karachi have struggled against every dictator
Talking about the by-elections Pakistan Peoples party (PPP) Chairman said that the current by-elections are very important for the country. He said that he has been trying to collect funds for the people affected due to floods.
He further stated that elections are important but providing relief to flood affectees is more important. Urging people to cast vote for PPP he also said that he could not run a campaign for by-polls because flood affectees need the response more than ever.


How do they work?
An integrated care community is where teams work together to improve the overall health and wellbeing of their community.
How will we do this?
- Joining up health and care services to work better together
- Providing more care out of hospital where possible
- Supporting people to have information about their health conditions
Health and social care professionals, GPs, the voluntary and third sector along with the community will work as one team to support the health and wellbeing of local people.
North Cumbria has been divided into 8 ICCs based on groups of GP practices and their patients.
By understanding the challenges that each area faces, it is hoped that the community can work together with health and care organisations to improve the health and wellbeing of local people.

A cholera epidemic has swept across Chiredzi district in the southern part of the country with at least a dozen people having been reportedly hospitalized during the past week.
Health officials in Masvingo said that they were still battling to contain the epidemic which claimed two lives in the Boli area last year.
The epidemic according to reliable sources has hit Chikombedzi and Chizvirizvi resettlement area amid fears that several parts of the district might have been affected.
Officials in the health ministry said more than ten villages might have been affected by the disease. Masvingo provincial epidomeologist Amadeuf Shamu said health personnel were still battling to contain the disease.
Shamu however could not give figures of those currently detained in hospital.
However an official within the health ministry who refused to be named since he not allowed to talk to the press said a dozen people were detained in different health institutions in the districts.
"We so far have a dozen people who have tested positive and are currently receiving treatment at different hospitals in the district", said the official.
Health officials have attributed the outbreak to lack of good drinking water as some families in the affected areas are sharing drinking water with both wild and domestic animals.
Chiredzi West member of parliament Moses Mare last year appealed to the government to drill more boreholes in the area to ensure that clean water is accessible to villagers.
Mare said the water situation in parts of Chiredzi remains a stumbling block to contain the disease which he said is now a time bomb. "The water supply in the district is not good at all", said Mare.

KATHMANDU, Finance Minister Yuba Raj Khatiwada on Monday said that Guthis (trusts) can contribute to promoting social security schemes launched by the government.
Speaking at a conference titled "On the path to Universal Social Protection in Nepal” in the capital, Minister Khatiwada said that the tradition of loving and respecting juniors has greatly contributed to the social protection.
Khatiwada said that social protection has also contributed to the disaster management. Stating that the constitution has enshrined social protection as a fundamental right of the people, the minister vowed to promote social security schemes.

(MENAFN- The Journal Of Turkish Weekly) Although the majority people who voted in an advisory referendum in the Labin region of Istria opposed plans for a new coal-fired thermal power plant, the project is to go ahead.
A total of 94.5 per cent of people who turned out to cast ballots in the referendum on Sunday expressed disapproval about the building of the power Plomin C plant near the town of Labin.
But the turnout at 36 per cent was not high enough to make the vote binding because it did not pass the 50 per cent legal threshold.
The Croatian state electricity provider, HEP, has insisted that the project will go ahead regardless of the referendum.
But campaign groups Croatian Greenpeace, Green Action and Green Istria said the vote had however sent out a strong message that people in the region were opposed to the new plant because of ecological and health fears.
"[The referendum] didn't fail; since it is advisory, it makes no difference if the turnout was 50 per cent. Citizens have clearly shown their opinion. The government must not ignore it," Marko Gregovic from Greenpeace told BIRN.
Gregovic said the campaign groups would not strive to ensure that the process of building the plant was transparent.
"We demand that everything is transparent and that the public is presented all contracts and conditions, especially when it comes to Marubeni," he said.
Japanese company Marubeni has already signed an agreement with HEP to become a potential partner in constructing the power plant.
The NGOs however said that Marubeni was an unsuitable partner because it pleaded guilty last year to involvement in a corruption scandal over the building of a power plant in Indonesia.
Istria county prefect Valter Flego meanwhile said that the decision whether to use coal at the new power plant should not be taken lightly.
"The decision about what will be the energy used at Plomin C is an extremely serious decision... Unfortunately, the turnout [in the referendum] was not large, but those who did vote made it clear that they are against coal," Flego said, adding that local politicians were advocating gas as an energy source.
The mayor of Labin, Tulio Demetlika, said that the referendum result was "a clear message to all".
"Unfortunately, all those who did not vote in the poll probably think that this is a done deal, given the recent comments coming from HEP, which announced that regardless of the outcome of the referendum, the project will go on," Demetilika said.
The construction of Plomin C is one of the most important strategic infrastructural projects launched by the Croatian government in recent years.
The other projects were a thermal power plant near the town of Ploce on the southern Adriatic coast, a hydropower plant near Dubrovnik and a liquid natural gas terminal on the island of Krk.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi said: I have assured people that elections in Jammu and Kashmir will continue and it is the people of these regions only who will represent the larger public. Yes, those who ruled Kashmir thinking it is their divine right to do so will dislike democratisation and peddle incorrect narratives.
They do not want a self-made, younger leadership to emerge. These are the same people whose own conduct in the 1987 elections has been suspect. Article 370 has helped the local political class avoid transparency and accountability. Its removal will only empower democracy even more.”

Precious Kashmir News
Srinagar, Dec 5: Jammu and Kashmir Pradesh Congress Committee (JKPCC) on Saturday alleged that the party candidates and leaders are being denied security.
Former minister and senior Congress leader, Peerzada Mohammad Sayeed, who was accompanied by the party vice president G N Monga, while addressing a news conference, said Congress leaders and the party’s DDC candidates are being deprived of the security.
“Such is the height that the officials concerned don’t bother to take our calls as they know that the phone call is being made to seek security,” he said.
He said it is difficult to move around without security. “It is imperative to have security while venturing out as anybody who raises a slogan of India in Kashmir, there is always a threat for him,” he said.
The Congress leader said he is categorized in the Z plus category, but has no security cover at all.
“Despite being attacked many times in the past, the security cover given to me has been withdrawn,” he said, adding that there are many Congress leaders as well as the party candidates contesting the ongoing polls who have the same complaints.
“Whenever we demand security to visit any place, we are being told that there is no vehicle available. If such is the case then what was the need to conduct elections,” he asked while stating that the time has gone when a few voters were coming out to cast ballots as the people in large numbers are exercising their franchise in Kashmir.
“In contrary, the leaders of BJP and its allies including Apni Party are being provided adequate security while other parties are being pushed to the wall,” he alleged. (KNO)

Ben Jealous, the president of the NAACP, said it is unlikely the South Carolina law requiring voters to present government-issued photo identification at the polls will remain in place, saying that it clearly discriminates against elderly and African-Americans.
In an interview with BET.com, Jealous said if the issue goes to the United States Supreme Court opponents of the law will prevail.
“I feel confident that we will be successful in blocking this law in South Carolina,” said Jealous, who has made opposition to voter identification laws a central effort of the civil rights organization. “And if the Supreme Court has to decide it, I don’t see the state of South Carolina getting the five votes that they would need.”
The United States Justice Department refused to grant the needed approval of the South Carolina law, saying the law would disproportionately diminish turnout among eligible minority voters.
Thomas E. Perez, the assistant attorney for civil rights, said that allowing the new requirement to go into effect would have “significant racial disparities.”
Furthermore, in a letter to the South Carolina government, Perez said that data provided by the state of South Carolina indicated there were “81,938 minority citizens who are already registered to vote and who lack” government-issued identification.
The Justice Department official said that these voters are nearly 20 percent more likely to be “disenfranchised” than white voters.
South Carolina’s governor, Nikki Haley, sharply criticized the Justice Department’s move, saying that the Obama administration was “bullying” the state.
Jealous, who led a rally against the South Carolina law on Martin Luther King Jr.’s birthday, said that public awareness and concern has increased regarding recent efforts by Republican-led legislatures and governors to enact voter identification laws.
“My sense is that the tide is turning,” Jealous said. “People are getting increasingly focused and engaged in the battle to make sure that voting rights attacks are being fought. In South Carolina, just like everywhere, people who are in the minority have rights, too.”
