Text of the page (random words):
f the australian conservation foundation ended in june 2004 labor leader mark latham announced that garrett would become an australian labor party candidate for the house of representatives at that year s federal election in the safe new south wales seat of kingsford smith which was being vacated by the former cabinet minister laurie brereton there was some initial criticism from labor members within the electorate as the local branch had wished to select their own candidate 34 in the end garrett was comfortably elected for the seat in october 2004 in 2015 garrett alleged in his autobiography and an abc documentary that he had been handed an envelope containing hundreds if not thousands of dollars in cash by a representative of clubs nsw at a function following the 2004 election he subsequently retracted his allegations and stated that the envelope in fact contained a cheque which he returned and also that the incident took place before he was elected which would mean the possible offence of bribery or attempted bribery of a public official would not apply 35 clubs nsw subsequently sued the abc for defamation but withdrew the suit in 2016 following a court ruling on discovery that would have granted the abc access to the organisation s financial records 36 six months after entering parliament garrett was appointed shadow parliamentary secretary for reconciliation and the arts 37 it was reported that he had modified some of his earlier views 38 he expressed support for the u s australia alliance and recanted earlier opposition to the joint u s australian defence facility at pine gap 39 he also stated that while he would argue the case for environmentalism inside the labor party he would observe the ultimate decision of the party caucus including accepting any decision on the no new uranium mines policy 40 garrett s change of stance drew criticism from both journalists and midnight oil fans who contrasted garrett s former pronouncements on environmental and political issues he had made before joining the labor party 41 a garrett poster at a polling booth 2007 while some in the media labelled him a turncoat some such as eureka street and the canberra times columnist and anu academic john warhurst defended his need to be a team player if he was going to succeed in the political game from the inside 38 garrett campaigned for labor in the 2006 victorian state election causing some controversy when he sent a letter to voters in the seat of melbourne where labor and the greens were embroiled in a tight contest in the letter garrett urged voters not to vote for the greens claiming they were in alliance with the conservative liberal party this incurred the ire of greens leader and former garrett ally bob brown who accused garrett of having sold out and of going against the environmental movement since joining the labor party 42 in december 2006 kevin rudd appointed garrett to his shadow cabinet as shadow minister for climate change the environment heritage and the arts 43 garrett supported rudd in that month s leadership spill a decision he would later come to regret saying years later that it was certainly the biggest mistake he made in his political career 44 during the 2007 election campaign garrett caused some controversy after the journalist steve price claimed that garrett had said to him labor would change their policies if put in power this was disputed by garrett as a short jocular conversation 45 garrett was comfortably re elected for kingsford smith in the election with a 4 56 swing towards him 46 environment minister 2007 2010 edit after labor s victory in the 2007 election prime minister kevin rudd appointed garrett as minister for the environment heritage and the arts in the cabinet although responsibility for climate change was separated from the portfolio and handed to senator penny wong 47 45 although garrett requested to represent the government on climate change within the house of representatives rudd instead gave that responsibility to treasurer wayne swan 48 in his first acts in the role garrett approved a controversial plan to dredge melbourne s port phillip bay 49 this move attracted strong criticism from some environmental groups who were concerned that the 23 million cubic metres of sand rock and contaminated silt dredged from the bay s shipping channels would affect fishing and tourism in the area 50 51 garrett also refused federal funding that would have enabled a remount of elke neidhardt s acclaimed adelaide production of der ring des nibelungen in 2008 52 53 54 as environment minister garrett was responsible for implementing the government s whaling conservation policy which included the cessation of commercial and scientific whaling 55 the most controversial issue was japan s annual trips to the southern ocean to kill whales in the name of science with the australian government attempting to negotiate a cessation of scientific whaling at the annual meetings of the international whaling commission these negotiations were unsuccessful culminating in australia taking japan to the international court of justice icj although the case was concluded after garrett had left politics the icj eventually announced its judgement based on his application that japan must stop whaling in the southern ocean 56 in august 2008 garrett approved a major expansion of south australia s beverley uranium mine saying the mine would demonstrate global best practice for environmental protection 57 garrett s decision was praised by the uranium industry but criticised by the australian conservation foundation the organisation garrett previously led which said the decision would result in the mine spreading acid and radioactive pollution over 100 square kilometres 39 sq mi 58 later that year garrett announced the withdrawing of all a 2 6 million funding from the australian national academy of music anam 59 in 2009 garrett chose not to give the proposed a 2 billion tamar valley mill approval until more studies were undertaken on its potential impact on marine environments a new condition was put on the mill meaning gunns could be liable for criminal and civil penalties if the mill was approved and broke defined environmental limits 60 that same year saw garrett also rejected proposals to impound the mary river through the construction of the traveston crossing dam garrett determined that the impacts of the proposed dam on the threatened species of australian lungfish the mary river turtle and the mary river cod would be too great and of national environmental significance 61 in a 2010 reshuffle of his cabinet rudd demoted garrett to the outer ministry in response to garrett s administration of the home insulation program hip which was linked to four deaths over 100 house fires and allegations of fraud 62 63 64 it was subsequently revealed in may 2010 that garrett had written to rudd on four occasions raising concerns about safety 65 following the leadership spill in june 2010 which saw rudd replaced by julia gillard garrett s colleague gary gray revealed most mps believed garrett was demoted because rudd had a shocking interview on the 7 30 report and needed a scapegoat gray stated 66 the majority of caucus felt he had been badly treated for rudd and his office to position garrett as the fall guy was disgraceful weak sneaky unprincipled and just plain wrong all along peter properly put his objections to the administration of the program on the record how can you have a situation where rudd executes complete and total influence micromanages everything yet not the home insulation program the shape and execution of the program was certainly designed by the prime minister s office if not the prime minister himself education minister 2010 2013 edit garrett initially retained the portfolio of environment minister in the first gillard ministry and was re elected at the 2010 election albeit with a substantially reduced majority suffering a two party preferred negative swing against him of 8 1 67 after the election gillard promoted him back to the full cabinet as minister for school education early childhood and youth 68 69 in september 2011 garrett announced an alteration of the national school chaplaincy program by offering schools the opportunity to employ instead of a religious support worker chaplain a secular student well being officer 70 71 72 in february 2012 garrett alongside indigenous affairs minister jenny macklin announced an expansion of the improving school enrollment and attendance through welfare reform measure seam a program through which parents of indigenous students in the northern territory can have their centrelink payments suspended for three months if their children are not attending or enrolled in school though the government claimed that the program improved indigenous school attendance it was heavily criticised by some indigenous spokespeople and academics for being excessively punitive rather than implementing other policies that may have been far more effective in improving school attendance in 2013 garrett pledged to increase funding to public schools as recommended in the gonski report in order to reduce inequality in educational performance 73 in a 2014 book review garrett stated that he was concerned at the growth of private schools which could lead to an increasingly segregated school system he noted that the national school chaplaincy program needed to change their guidelines because the line between chaplains acting to support students in the provision of general pastoral care and proselytising was too easily crossed 74 75 garrett supported gillard in both 2013 leadership spills after the june spill where rudd defeated gillard garrett immediately announced his resignation as education minister and the following day declared that he would not seek re election at the 2013 election ending his career in parliament after nine years 9 76 other roles and activities edit garrett left and other commissioners at the 2026 aukus public inquiry in adelaide in september 2023
