A 52-year-old Darley man
facing 57 charges including
alleged rape and indecent
assault appeared in Ballarat Magistrates Court last
Thursday morning.
The accused, Ronald Van
Dorp, is a local business
owner of The Vitality Centre, a privately owned massage business, and is now
alleged to have sexually
assaulted up to 26 different
clients.
Mr Van Dorp previously
appeared in Bacchus Marsh
Magistrates Court on November 1 after he allegedly assaulted two women,
one aged 21 and the other
25-years-old (as reported in
The Moorabool News, Nov
4).
Magistrate Cynthia Toose
said the case was a complicated and intensive matter and agreed to adjourn
Mr Van Dorps case until
March 13 for a further committal hearing.

Breaking the
By Kate Taylor
He was President of the
Djerriwarrh Health Services
Board during the period
that the avoidable deaths of
seven babies occurred and
now, Michael Tudball has
broken his silence.
The Board was abruptly
sacked by the Health Minister on the same day the
lengthy investigation into
high infant mortality rates at
the Bacchus Marsh Hospital
was made public, but Mr
Tudball had left his position
in June this year after serving 13 years on the Board.
Boards such as Djerriwarrh are Minister appointed, non-paid, skills-based
Boards in Corporate Governance, Business, Legal,
Financial and Community,
Mr Tudball said.
There are few, if any medical-based skills on Boards
and that is mostly Victoriawide, particularly regionally-based services like DjHS.
This is not the call of the
Board as to that make-up.
Michael Tudball is a former Board member of DjHS.

CEO APPOINTED
After a turbulent few months - including three Chief Executives in less than
a year - Djerriwarrh Health Services has filled the position, permanently.
Hundreds of babies are delivered at Djerriwarrh Heath Services each year, and
birthing numbers fluctuate from month to month. The hospital has delivered 27
babies since 16 October 2015.
It is not unusual for women to transfer to another health service during their
antenatal care. Since 16 October 2015, 32 women have transferred their future
care to other health services due to their individual circumstances, and in
consultation with their obstetrician or midwife, the statement read.

Andrew Freeman, who has been acting in the role in an interim capacity
since August this year, was last week officially appointed as CEO.
Mr Freeman replaced David Grace, who in turn replaced Bruce Marshall.
Mr Freeman comes to the role after leading Benalla Health Services since
2011.
He has forged a successful career in health administration and leadership
at organisations like Northeast Health Wangaratta, Yarrawonga District
Health Service and Southern Health, said Dr John Ballard, Administrator of
Djerriwarrh Health Services.
Dr Ballard said that the appointment provides certainty and continuity for
Djerriwarrh as work continues to enhance the standards of care, safety and
systems of clinical governance.
It follows an investigation into the deaths of 11 babies at the hospital which
found that seven of the deaths were likely avoidable.
The cornerstone of any health service is strong and focused leadership,
Dr Ballard said.
I am confident that Andrew will provide this, as he transitions from the
interim role of Chief Executive that he has held since August of this year.
Mr Freeman said he looks forward to working with the staff and people of
the City of Melton and the Shire of Moorabool.
I understand Djerriwarrh Health Services has had its challenges. I will work
with our dedicated staff to provide excellent care and I am committed to
rebuilding the trust and confidence of the community, he said.

COMRIE REIGNS
Humble words
Cr Paul Tatchell.
Saturday 22 October.
There is also another
election on the horizon
next years federal election,
and the opportunities it
presents in lobbying for
funding.
Youve really got to be
talking to both parties
all the time, whether its
state or federal, and well
continue to do that. But yes,
its an opportunity to lobby
harder.
Although he nominated Cr Comrie as Mayor, East Ward Councillor Dave Edwards offered thanks to outgoing Mayor Paul Tatchell.
During the traditional vote of thanks to the outgoing Mayor, Cr Edwards said that on behalf of the shire he wanted to personally thank Cr Tatchell
for what he believed had been a terrific time.
A couple of words about his style commitment and sacrifice. Theres not many people who would do 16 hours a day, he attends absolutely
everything theres no task to big or small, Cr Edwards said.
Ive never seen an advocate that wants to sell Moorabool like he does - sell, sell, sell, tell people how good Moorabool is. He handles difficult
situations very well, works tirelessly to keep jobs in Moorabool (Fiskville); he got the Eastern interchange back, and attracted significant funding.
In his report as outgoing Mayor, Cr Tatchell said there are few privileges that can surpass the opportunity to serve and represent in ones own
community, and for that he is extremely grateful.
He said the appointment of Rob Croxford as CEO for another five years provides stable management in an unstable financial environment.
The Eastern end of the Shire is suffocating by the inaction of successive governments over decades, and the Western region by Governments
failure to acknowledge the potential on the East side of Ballarat.
Its a sad indictment on the political landscape, when regional investment takes a back seat to the myopic world of election cycles.
Cr Tatchell also pointed out that council has reduced operating costs by $3 million in four years, has just handed down the best audit report in
decades, yet neither is deemed to be worthy of performance based reward.
The residents of Moorabool deserve better.
With compounding infrastructure gaps, reductions in Federal assisted grants and the implementation of rate capping; the shortfalls in Government
investment our fiscal exposure will determine our future and illustrate the contemptible nature of populous politics.
Cr Tatchell said the greatest asset in the Shire is its people.
And its a humbling process in the role as Mayor to visit each and every community group across the shire.
This Shire was built on the goodwill and community spirit of the people that live within it. Projects are driven and completed by the unsung
dedication of people taking positive steps towards a community lifestyle.
You dont have to look very far to see community handprints on infrastructural investment throughout the length and breadth of the Moorabool
community.
This is what regional living was founded on, and we owe these unsung heroes an enormous gratitude for their selflessness and commitment.
Cr Tatchell said he is uncomfortable with nominating achievements during a Mayoral term.
The reality is that anything that has been achieved has been done over a number of Council cycles.
We often cut ribbons on behalf of those that have come before us and will continue to do so. The Council Chambers belongs to the people, and it
is they that should take credit where credit is due.
But he did thank council staff for the brilliant job they do, as well as mentioning the good work of departments led by Satwinder Sandhu, Phil
Jeffrey, Danny Colgan, Peter Forbes as well as Di Elshaug.
Cr Tatchell also praised the work of the Youth Action Group, among others, as well as thanking his fellow councillors and finally, his wife, for her
unconditional support.

In my discussions to date
with the Turnbull Government it is clear that these
funds are not a gift voucher
for the Andrews Labor Government to waste on bad
projects and blow-outs, Mr
Guy said.
Mr Guy did say that the
money should be used for
a congestion-busting road
but no mention of one in
Bacchus Marsh.
It is also clear that the
community still wants the
construction of the East West
Link and the thousands of
jobs that comes with it and I
am pleased that the Turnbull
Government still supports
this critical congestion-busting road.

Commissioner Craig Lapsley

Fire Action Week is a
great time to increase your
understanding of the fire
risk where you live, prepare
your property, and talk to
your family and friends
about what youll do if a fire
starts.
Mr Lapsley said that
making informed decisions
about what to do before a fire
started was vital to stay safe
during the summer.
Now is the best time to
understand your fire risk
and get prepared, not when
a fire starts.

Dear Editor,
I write in response to the article Hospital Board Scapegoats
For Government (MN 27 Oct, 2015).
As a longtime resident of this town and volunteer at Grant
Lodge, I would like to commend your paper on about the
only example of responsible reporting I have read during
the sad and sorry saga of press hype and hysteria about
infant mortality rates at our local hospital.
Your in-depth interview with Mayor Paul Tatchell
demonstrates the type of responsible government at a local
level that his State Government colleagues would do well
to emulate. Im not surprised that Minister Hennessey has
not responded to questions by The Moorabool News in regard
to the sacking of the board. Your agenda highlights how her
handling of the situation may have serious implications
to the role of the volunteer in Victoria. The Victorian
Minister for Healths inexperience in the role of a minister
Dear Editor,
I have noticed some discussion and opinion in our regional media in past weeks
about the China-Australia
Free
Trade
Agreement.
Some of this has included
reference to and in some
cases criticism of Labors
position.
As negotiations were proceeding at the time, I resisted making a contribution.
Now that issues around the
Agreement have been settled, I would appreciate an
opportunity to outline Labors position.
In negotiations with the
Government, Labor secured
a comprehensive package
of safeguards for Australian jobs. These safeguards
are complementary to the
China-Australia Free Trade
Agreement (ChAFTA). This
was always our intention.
Labor successfully argued
for safeguards in three specific areas: requiring labour
market testing, protecting Australian wages and
conditions, and upholding
workplace skills and safety
standards.
Through our efforts, Labor has delivered new legal
safeguards in each of these
areas.
Having secured these outcomes, Labor supported the
ChAFTA enabling legislation in Parliament, ensuring
Australian exporters including the rural sector so

Dear Editor,
Earlier this year the Anakie/
Staughton Vale community
learned that Bacchus Marsh
Grammar was investigating establishing a farming/
environmental campus at
Staughton Vale. Those who
attended an information
session came away with
the understanding that the
proposed campus would be
small. The reality is evidentlyfar from what most people
imagined.
In 2015, almost 2016, schools
have the unique challenge
of preparing students for a
planet undergoing Climate
Change. Children will need
wisdom beyond their years,
compassion, practical skills,
and an understanding of the
natural environment. They
will need support in discovering more harmonious
ways of living on this planet
The long term stages of the
Bacchus Marsh Grammar
proposal, currently with
Geelong Council, indicate
expansion to a campus for
1300 students. A new school
with concerns for sustainability has the opportunity
to prioritise footprint and
aim for a carbon neutral operation. This would involve
locating as near as possible
to the client catchment, regulating permissible traffic to

By Scot Nicholson
Division 3 v North Ballarat
A home ground advantage proved to be crucial as
North Ballarat secured a 16shot victory over Ballan last
Saturday.
The 109 93 score line was
enough to see Ballan endure
their first defeat of the season and now leaves the side
in third place on the ladder.
Jordan Steen said that despite losing by 29-shots in
his debut match as a skip,
there were many positives
to be taken away from the
encounter.
We knew it would be
a challenge coming to

With only 9 players this week the boys were always going to
struggle bowling their 50 overs. To their credit they put in a
solid effort with their bowling and fielding. Ryan Penn and
Ben Rivett both took excellent catches.

tight bowling. When Ballan took the field the boys once again
put in a great effort with the ball and fielding. Unfortunately
they ended up losing by two runs.
