Therese Rein's Invisage throws light on Lu Kewen , Rein, John Dawkins connection

From the Invisage website , now inoperative, but held in Web Archives:

Our History
In 1991, Invisage, known then as the Clements School of Management, was approached by the then Federal Minister for Education, Mr John Dawkins, to offer a unique, nationally accredited Associate Diploma in Business Studies.

Since then we have further developed our workplace training programs, which cover the areas of marketing, sales and management.

In January 1998, Invisage as Clements became a Registered Training Organisation under the Australian National Training Authority's Australian Recognition Framework initiative. The initiative guaranteed mutual recognition of qualifications awarded throughout Australia by other registered training organisations.

From the SMH, 1 March 2008:
THE wife of Kevin Rudd's chief of staff, David Epstein, has been appointed to run the Canberra office of major lobbying outfit Government Relations Australia, raising concerns of a potential conflict-of-interest....Ms Eccles is now the general manager for Government Relations Australia based in Canberra — and she is not the only lobbyist in the family.

Before his appointment as Mr Rudd's chief of staff last June, Mr Epstein was also a director at GRA.....Among GRA's current directors are former Keating government treasurer John Dawkins...

From The Australian , 11 April 2008
KEVIN Rudd has failed to declare a company owned by his wife, which has been granted $160,000 of government money in the past four years.

The continued ownership of the company by the Prime Minister's wife, Therese Rein, directly contradicts repeated claims by Mr Rudd and Ms Rein that they have divested themselves of all their Australian businesses.

Mr Rudd's office said yesterday that the company was not declared on the registry of interests to the House of Representatives because it was "inactive" at the time his interests were registered on March 11 this year.

The company - Invisage Australia - was built by Ms Rein to specialise in corporate training, coaching, mentoring and personal development.

Ben Robert-Smith : How was Justice Anthony Besanko of the Federal Court able to find that the crime of murder has a civil twin, which can be determined on a balance of probabilities

Most if not all reports have been at pains to stress that the finding was based on a balance of probabilities, and not beyond a reasonable doubt, for the matter was a civil and not criminal matter.  However,  reading his summary one can immediately see that Justice Besanko  found not that Roberts-Smith had committed murder but that the " respondents had, (on  a balance of probabilities) established the substantial truth"  that  Roberts-Smith had committed murder.  However, murder is a  crime and a finding of murder in a criminal court (which is the court in which crimes like murder can be determined!) inv

Who authorised former NSW Police Commissioner Mick Fuller to say anything about the Berejiklian era quarantine fee and why? Fuller's notice confirms suspicion that NSW Berejiklian government had no basis to impose the quarantine fee, nor quarantine persons who were COVID negative

 by Ganesh Sahathevan      Premier Gladys Berejiklian with NSW Police Commissioner Mick Fuller and Brigadier Mick             Garraway Who authorised former  NSW Police Commissioner Mick Fuller  to say anything about the  Berejiklian era  quarantine fee and why? Fuller's issuance of his  COVID  quarantine notice, and subsequent silence, would seem to confirm suspicions raised on this blog that NSW's Berejiklian government had no basis to impose its quarantine fee. Fuller's conduct also adds to suspicion that the Berejiklian government did not have the authority, even under its COVID emergency powers, to quarantine persons who were COVID negative. International arrivals had to test negative for COVID before boarding their flights to Sydney, and tests had to be administered within 72 hours of departure. Quarantine on arrival of those who exhibited no COVID symptoms was quite likely unnecessary. It did, of course help bolster Gladys Berejiklian's approval ratings. TO BE RE

Mandatory quarantine is needed to stop the spread. of COVID-19 in NSW The qurantine fee has been charged pursuant to Section 70 of  the NSW Health Act. However, as previously reported, that section does not permit any imposition of mandatory fees.  However, in apparent defiance of Section 70 of the Health Act, Fuller issued a notice   in which he said  that Revenue NSW " will be charging a mandatory quarantine fee".
