  1. Jillian Segal refuses to release conflict of interest docs claiming they’re “private”.
    Segal, stumbling, then claims her conflicts are actually “public”.
    David Shoebridge: “if it’s public, why do you object to them being published?”

  2. At the Senate's Estimates today, #Bishop waxed lyrical about the funds she has personally brought into ANU from Philanthropists in WA and elsewhere (Over $60M). She also mentioned that in 2019 ANU's financial position was 'vastly' better (ie. before she took it over), and then COVID happen, nasty Covid made everything dearer and expenditure went up apparently. That was the entire focus in her defence. Verbal garbage a plenty avoiding any explanations for ANU's alledged financial woes or financial mismanagement.

    I blame the #Senators for focussing on #Bishop rather than ANU's financial management and the doctered financial reports which show something like $142M deficit whereas the auditors had the university with a $90M surplus. Instead they wasted time on student numbers, student scholarships and the Kambri programme giving Bishop the lecturn she gladly used. Funny though, she now accepts credit for turning the ANU financial position around -- just like that in a few months, magically.

    It's also convenient that the interim #Vice Prof Brown was the one who made changes to RenewANU implementations in January this year and is implementing those changes now.

    Senators Shoebridge, Pocock and Faruqui were more on point (on leadership and finance) and made a few uncomfortable - Covid came up again then. But it was confirmed that ANU's dire financial position stems from an accounting perspective (different buckets of money)

    Giving Bishop an opportunity to glaze the cherry and ignore accounting practices was irresponsible. And I am now convinced that the Chancellor is blind to her conduct and reponsibility for the current state of affairs on campus.

    Throughout, Bishop appears in total denial else she's completely clueless.

    If you haven't watched the Senate Estimate hearing with ANU Chancellors answering questions from Senators.

  3. The ARC is up at #SenateEstimates this Friday. As per tradition, they come in last on the schedule ▶️ aph.gov.au/Parliamentary_Busin

    I'm sure there won't be many questions about ANU & TEQSA, so there'll definitely be time for lengthly discussion about the ARC 🫠

  8. Adrian Collette is basically saying that it doesn't matter how good an artist is considered to be if they're considered a "risk". That the body that's supposed to be the major advocate for Australian arts "freedom of artistic expression" is saying this is beyond disturbing. #senateestimates

  10. As usual in ARC #SenateEstimates, Coalition Sen. Henderson attacked individual researchers & projects 🚮

    She went on about the Oz article (confected for Estimates fodder) on ARC projects “wasting taxpayer money”.

    But … one was approved by the Coalition 🤭

  15. Sen. Mehreen Faruqi asked ARC, again, in #SenateEstimates if they can just email outcomes with a short publicity embargo.

    ARC tries to sell their tweet-a-day-before as a "system we've developed" that’s "gone past [the embargo] approach".

    The spin, man😒

  20. "I think it’s a real mess to put researchers in that position"

    Sen. Mehreen Faruqi asks in #SenateEstimates why ARC ask applicants to assess other applications to the same scheme.

    Seems like an obvious conflict of interest!?

    ARC say they're reviewing their peer review system!

  25. ARC were asked by Sen. Mehreen Faruqi in #SenateEstimates about the rapid decline in the number of Discovery Projects.

    They didn’t answer the question at all. Instead they wanted to "check the data". How uninformed about their own schemes can the ARC be??

  30. The acting ARC CEO is very confused about how webpages work.

    Greens Sen. Mehreen Faruqi asked for an explanation in #SenateEstimates about ARC's accidental early publication of #DECRA outcomes.

  35. Help me out here. Are misinformation & disinformation really fundamental to Judaism? I thought that was just an 🇮🇱 Zionist thing.

    Australian Jewish Association CEO Robert Gregory tells Senate Estimates that the AJA is against legislating to help stamp out misinformation and disinformation because he says it will mean that “Jewish practises which are thousands of years old could come under breach of the law”🤔

    AJA’s President David Adler raised concerns and insisted that new misinformation laws will affect Jewish people “directly” because of their faith.

    Bear in mind that there are religious exemptions in the Bill.
