Staff training
2 Hansard officers, Nazarette
Adeang and Noeleen Reiyetsi, visited the Melbourne Parliament from
3 December to 14 December 2012 to undertake a training
attachment funded by the Commonwealth Parliamentary
Association Education Trust Fund.
Extract from Statement of Speaker
21 December 2012:
"Parliament's Director of Hansard,
Noleen Reiyetsi, and Hansard Manager and Assistant to PAC, Sukie
Adeang, have just returned this week from a two week attachment to
the Parliament of Victoria, which is Nauru's twin Parliament under
the Commonwealth Parliamentary Association's Parliament Twinning
Program. Noleen and Sukie promoted to their new leadership
positions at the start of the financial year and having received
their report on the recent attachment I believe that they have
benefitted enormously from this opportunity. They will now be able
in the New Year to apply what they have learned about Parliament
administration, and in particular managing the workflow of Hansard
production, to improve the way in which our parliament Secretariat
and Hansard office operate in Nauru.
Their attachment was funded through
the Commonwealth Parliamentary Association Education Trust Fund,
which provides opportunities each year for staff training and
capacity building. I would like to extend my sincere thanks to the
CPA Education Trust Fund for their generosity, and also to the
Presiding Officers of the Victorian Parliament and Clerk of the
Victorian Parliament, Ray Purdey, for their generous support and
devotion of their time and resources to making the attachment so
worthwhile."
Ann-Marie Thoma, Assistant Clerk,
participated in a workshop in New Zealand.
Extract from Statement of Speaker
21 December 2012:
"The Assistant Clerk recently
participated in a workshop on Parliamentary procedures and
Parliamentary Committees held in New Zealand, and I believe she
benefitted greatly from that opportunity."
