Aboriginal leaders in South Australia say they want to see the “highest level of accountability and transparency” in community organisations, but have criticised an inquiry into issues of governance approved by the Marshall government last week.

The inquiry will review the accountability, transparency, cultural authority and financial obligations of community controlled organisations and will be conducted by the Aboriginal Lands Parliamentary Standing Committee.

Haverhill’s newest license commissioner won’t need to come up to speed on procedures and rules when she hears matters for the first time this week.
Up until a year ago Laura Angus served as the city’s assistant city clerk and License Commission clerk and was well known to all of the city’s liquor and automobile sales licensees.

Last year, Angus changed jobs and became benefit counselor to the Haverhill Retirement Board.
