"title": "Sea World crash families tell of 'loss beyond measure'",
"body": "The families of three tourists killed in a helicopter collision have given emotional statements about their loss and ongoing struggles, leaving a coroner visibly affected.\n\nSea World Helicopters pilot Ashley Jenkinson, 40, and three passengers were killed when his aircraft struck another chopper during a joy flight near the Gold Coast theme park on January 2, 2023.\n\nThe adult children of the British newlyweds Ronald and Diane Hughes, aged 65 and 57, were the first to give their family statements at Brisbane Coroners Court on Friday following several weeks of hearings spread over 15 months.\n\nRonald's daughter Jane Manns said not a day went by that she was not reminded of her father.\n\n\"We miss him beyond measure every day,\" she said.\n\nThe couple were on their first holiday since the COVID-19 lockdowns, with Ronald meeting one of his grandchildren in-person for the first time five days before the crash.\n\n\"He made the most of every moment, letting her paint his nails, put makeup on him and playing endless games with all his grandchildren,\" Ms Manns said.\n\nRonald's son Phil's voice broke with emotion as he described his father's absence at his upcoming wedding.\n\n\"I always imagined him as my best man: standing by my side, to tell him I loved him, and to know he was so proud of the man I'd become,\" he said.\n\n\"More than anything, I wish I could get one last hug from him before walking down the aisle.\n\n\"That moment has been taken away from me.\"\n\nSydney father Simon Tadros, whose wife Vanessa died in the crash and son Nicholas was critically injured, said he would not wish his family's ongoing daily grief and trauma on his worst enemy.\n\n\"Getting closure will be impossible for us, because Vanessa is not with us and I have to see my son living with the consequences of this fatal day,\" Mr Tadros said.\n\nNicholas, who has attended the inquest day in, day out with his father, still faced health problems and further surgeries after the crash left the then-10-year-old on life support and needing a leg amputated, Ms Lee was told.\n\nMr Tadros recalled the first time he met Vanessa in a cafe.\n\n\"Once I got to know her, I knew I wanted to be with her forever,\" he said.\n\nSea World Helicopters barrister Michael Trim also provided a statement passing on \"very sincere sympathies\" to the families for the loss of their loved ones in the \"terrible accident\".\n\nThe coroner has heard several weeks of evidence spread over three main sets of hearing days starting from April 2025.\n\nPassenger Winnie De Silva, a tourist from Victoria, relived how she initially thought she heard the helicopter striking a bird before it plunged 40 metres onto a sandbar.\n\n\"There was hot machinery on my body. I was screaming and screaming,\" she testified.\n\nPolice recalled a scene of \"absolute chaos\" as they rushed to locate survivors in the \"mangled wreck\".\n\nThe pilot killed in the crash, Ashley Jenkinson, later tested positive for the remnants of cocaine, the coroner heard.\n\nWitnesses testified seeing him snorting multiple lines of the drug following a New Year's Eve party in the days before the crash.\n\nVictoria's chief forensic toxicologist Dimitri Gerostamoulos, who gave evidence at mushroom murderer Erin Patterson's trial, testified that Mr Jenkinson was likely impaired by the after-effects of cocaine, alcohol and little sleep.\n\nSea World Helicopters chief executive Brett Newman strenuously denied any knowledge of Mr Jenkinson having any interest in recreational drugs.\n\nThe company had doubled its number of flights for the holiday busy season in what, the coroner heard, was \"one of the busiest air corridors in the country\".\n\nSea World owner Village Roadshow Theme Parks sold its joy flights operation in 2019 to Sea World Helicopters, which recently dumped the Sea World name.\n\nBoth the Hughes and Tadros families thanked the coroner and the Australian Transport Safety Bureau for their work investigating the crash and hoped it would prevent a similar tragedy in the future.\n\nThe inquest will spend the next several months receiving written submissions from the parties involved.",

"title": "Whitsundays wind farm plan scaled down after backlash",
"body": "Alinta Energy says it is still seeking to create a solar farm in the area.\n\nA lack of strong wind along and fierce community opposition have forced Alinta Energy to scale back the size of its proposed Whitsundays wind farm.\n\nThirty turbines were planned to be installed near cane and cattle farms between Proserpine and Bowen.\n\nAlinta Energy general manager of development Andreas Maasing said six months of monitoring led to the conclusion that the \"wind resource\" was insufficient to generate power at the southern end of the site.\n\nA map produced by Alinta Energy shows 14 wind turbines were proposed for the Crystal Brook area in the south and 16 in the Mount Challenger area to the north.\n\nMr Maasing said there were positive signs from satellite data but local monitoring revealed that was not the case.\n\n\"We have identified the overall project has very good prospects [going] forward, however, the southern end ... unfortunately did not have enough wind yields,\" he said.\n\nIn an email to landholders Mr Maasing said community concerns were also a factor in the decision.\n\n\"Through our consultation to date, we also heard that some members of the community were concerned about turbines being located in that area,\" the email said.\n\n\"We have taken that feedback on board and considered it alongside the wind-monitoring data and other assessments.\"\n\nMr Maasing said Alinta would continue to explore the feasibility of the northern project on property owned by a single landholder.\n\nThe company said a solar farm at the southern end was still proposed and that it had asked Whitsunday Regional Council to extend its planning and development application.\n\nLocal opposition\n\nCrystal Brook cane farmer Darren Lee was one of more than 4,000 people to sign a petition opposing the wind farm.\n\nHe said he would not celebrate until the entire project was abandoned.\n\n\"They presented the project as one and it should be scrapped as one,\" Mr Lee said.\n\n\"The location was terrible from the start, but there are other people just as impacted as we were and will still be impacted at the northern site.\"\n\nHe said community opposition would continue until there were bigger setbacks from property boundaries and turbines, and funds guaranteed to decommission the site at the end of its life.\n\nKelly Dalling, whose 4-hectare property sits halfway between the southern and northern areas of the proposed wind farm, welcomed the decision.\n\nShe said she was potentially looking at turbines on two sides of her property.\n\n\"I'm extremely emotional, very happy for our community who have been immensely stressed for almost a year now fighting this project,\" Ms Dalling said.\n\n\"At the same time, I feel for our northern neighbours. I still feel the project is wrong for their location too.\"",

"title": "What is GST and how does asset depreciation work?",
"body": "Brisbane-based tax agent Tauseef Abbasi spoke exclusively to SBS Urdu about key aspects of the Goods and Services Tax, or GST, including the registration threshold, different rules for Uber, rideshare and taxi drivers, and the depreciation of business assets.\n\nTausif Abbasi explained that GST registration becomes mandatory for most businesses once their annual turnover exceeds A$75,000. However, this threshold does not apply to Uber, DiDi, Ola and taxi drivers, who are required to register for GST and charge it from their very first dollar of income. He added that once they have an Australian Business Number (ABN) and are registered for GST, they must lodge a Business Activity Statement (BAS) every three months.\n\nAbbasi also noted that businesses can claim back the GST paid on eligible business expenses, such as fuel and vehicle costs. Regarding the depreciation of business assets, he said that small businesses with an annual turnover of less than A$10 million can immediately deduct the full cost of eligible assets worth less than A$20,000 in the year they are purchased. Assets above that threshold, however, must generally be depreciated over a number of years.",

"body": "Qantas cannot say when passengers will be able to fly non-stop between Melbourne and London as part of its Project Sunrise ultra-long-haul plan, even as the first test flight of new aircraft from the Airbus factory in France touched down at Tullamarine on Friday.\n\nInstead, the airline will base the first six of its 12 custom-built Airbus A350-1000ULR aircraft in Sydney, where its non-stop services from London and New York are scheduled to launch late next year. For now, Melbourne passengers will have to transit through Sydney after stepping off either flight, adding more time to the already 19-plus-hour routes.",

"title": "Minister Must Explain Her Role In Payout",
"body": "Shadow Minister for Families and Communities\n\nThe NSW Liberals and Nationals are demanding answers from the Premier after further reports show the Minister for Families and Communities had direct involvement in the payment of nearly $40,000 of taxpayers' money to an NGO so it would drop legal action against a former foster carer with ties to the Labor Party.\n\nShadow Minister for Families and Communities Natasha Maclaren‑Jones said reports that NGO staff were directed to remove references to the Minister from correspondence, and a non‑disclosure agreement was drawn up, raise serious questions about what the Minister was trying to hide and suggest a deliberate effort to conceal her role.\n\n\"This was not a routine decision. Minister Washington overruled her own department and presided over a process to hide her role. This stinks to high heaven,\" Mrs Maclaren‑Jones said.\n\n\"It has all the hallmarks of a cover‑up.\"\n\n\"The public deserves straight answers. Were records altered? Was the NGO pressured? And why was ministerial intervention required at all?\" Mrs Maclaren‑Jones said.\n\nMrs Maclaren-Jones said the Premier must answer these questions and explain why he continues to shield Minister Washington from accountability.\n\n\"When experienced stakeholders are warning that a Minister has misused her authority, Chris Minns cannot simply look the other way, Mrs Maclaren-Jones said.\n\n\"Chris Minns must explain why the public is only learning about this now. The public deserves transparency, but instead they get secret payouts, children placed with dangerous offenders, and welfare reports closed without kids even being seen.\"\n\n\"The Minister has blamed her department for every disaster on her watch, children living with a serial killer, ROSH reports closed because there's 'no capacity to allocate', kids not even being seen before their welfare reports are shut down. Not this time.\"\n\n\"This payout was her call, her signature, her responsibility, and she has serious questions to answer about her judgment, transparency and integrity.\"\n\n/Public Release.

"body": "The families of three tourists killed in a helicopter collision have given emotional statements about their loss and ongoing struggles, leaving a coroner visibly affected.\n\nSea World Helicopters pilot Ashley Jenkinson, 40, and three passengers were killed when his aircraft struck another chopper during a joy flight near the Gold Coast theme park on January 2, 2023.\n\nThe adult children of the British newlyweds Ronald and Diane Hughes, aged 65 and 57, were the first to give their family statements at Brisbane Coroners Court on Friday following several weeks of hearings spread over 15 months.\n\nRonald's daughter Jane Manns said not a day went by that she was not reminded of her father.\n\n\"We miss him beyond measure every day,\" she said.\n\nThe couple were on their first holiday since the COVID-19 lockdowns, with Ronald meeting one of his grandchildren in-person for the first time five days before the crash.\n\n\"He made the most of every moment, letting her paint his nails, put makeup on him and playing endless games with all his grandchildren,\" Ms Manns said.\n\nRonald's son Phil's voice broke with emotion as he described his father's absence at his upcoming wedding.\n\n\"I always imagined him as my best man: standing by my side, to tell him I loved him, and to know he was so proud of the man I'd become,\" he said.\n\n\"More than anything, I wish I could get one last hug from him before walking down the aisle.\n\n\"That moment has been taken away from me.\"\n\nSydney father Simon Tadros, whose wife Vanessa died in the crash and son Nicholas was critically injured, said he would not wish his family's ongoing daily grief and trauma on his worst enemy.\n\n\"Getting closure will be impossible for us, because Vanessa is not with us and I have to see my son living with the consequences of this fatal day,\" Mr Tadros said.\n\nNicholas, who has attended the inquest day in, day out with his father, still faced health problems and further surgeries after the crash left the then-10-year-old on life support and needing a leg amputated, Ms Lee was told.\n\nMr Tadros recalled the first time he met Vanessa in a cafe.\n\n\"Once I got to know her, I knew I wanted to be with her forever,\" he said.\n\nSea World Helicopters barrister Michael Trim also provided a statement passing on \"very sincere sympathies\" to the families for the loss of their loved ones in the \"terrible accident\".\n\nThe coroner has heard several weeks of evidence spread over three main sets of hearing days starting from April 2025.\n\nPassenger Winnie De Silva, a tourist from Victoria, relived how she initially thought she heard the helicopter striking a bird before it plunged 40 metres onto a sandbar.\n\n\"There was hot machinery on my body. I was screaming and screaming,\" she testified.\n\nPolice recalled a scene of \"absolute chaos\" as they rushed to locate survivors in the \"mangled wreck\".\n\nThe pilot killed in the crash, Ashley Jenkinson, later tested positive for the remnants of cocaine, the coroner heard.\n\nWitnesses testified seeing him snorting multiple lines of the drug following a New Year's Eve party in the days before the crash.\n\nVictoria's chief forensic toxicologist Dimitri Gerostamoulos, who gave evidence at mushroom murderer Erin Patterson's trial, testified that Mr Jenkinson was likely impaired by the after-effects of cocaine, alcohol and little sleep.\n\nSea World Helicopters chief executive Brett Newman strenuously denied any knowledge of Mr Jenkinson having any interest in recreational drugs.\n\nThe company had doubled its number of flights for the holiday busy season in what, the coroner heard, was \"one of the busiest air corridors in the country\".\n\nSea World owner Village Roadshow Theme Parks sold its joy flights operation in 2019 to Sea World Helicopters, which recently dumped the Sea World name.\n\nBoth the Hughes and Tadros families thanked the coroner and the Australian Transport Safety Bureau for their work investigating the crash and hoped it would prevent a similar tragedy in the future.\n\nThe inquest will spend the next several months receiving written submissions from the parties involved.",

I was screaming and screaming,\" she testified.\n\nPolice recalled a scene of \"absolute chaos\" as they rushed to locate survivors in the \"mangled wreck\".\n\nThe pilot killed in the crash, Ashley Jenkinson, later tested positive for the remnants of cocaine, the coroner heard.\n\nWitnesses testified seeing him snorting multiple lines of the drug following a New Year's Eve party in the days before the crash.\n\nVictoria's chief forensic toxicologist Dimitri Gerostamoulos, who gave evidence at mushroom murderer Erin Patterson's trial, testified that Mr Jenkinson was likely impaired by the after-effects of cocaine, alcohol and little sleep.\n\nSea World Helicopters chief executive Brett Newman strenuously denied any knowledge of Mr Jenkinson having any interest in recreational drugs.\n\nThe company had doubled its number of flights for the holiday busy season in what, the coroner heard, was \"one of the busiest air corridors in the country\".\n\nSea World owner Village Roadshow Theme Parks sold its joy flights operation in 2019 to Sea World Helicopters, which recently dumped the Sea World name.\n\nBoth the Hughes and Tadros families thanked the coroner and the Australian Transport Safety Bureau for their work investigating the crash and hoped it would prevent a similar tragedy in the future.\n\nThe inquest will spend the next several months receiving written submissions from the parties involved.",

"body": "The families of three tourists killed in a helicopter collision have given emotional statements about their loss and ongoing struggles, leaving a coroner visibly affected.\n\nSea World Helicopters pilot Ashley Jenkinson, 40, and three passengers were killed when his aircraft struck another chopper during a joy flight near the Gold Coast theme park on January 2, 2023.\n\nThe adult children of the British newlyweds Ronald and Diane Hughes, aged 65 and 57, were the first to give their family statements at Brisbane Coroners Court on Friday following several weeks of hearings spread over 15 months.\n\nRonald's daughter Jane Manns said not a day went by that she was not reminded of her father.\n\n\"We miss him beyond measure every day,\" she said.\n\nThe couple were on their first holiday since the COVID-19 lockdowns, with Ronald meeting one of his grandchildren in-person for the first time five days before the crash.\n\n\"He made the most of every moment, letting her paint his nails, put makeup on him and playing endless games with all his grandchildren,\" Ms Manns said.\n\nRonald's son Phil's voice broke with emotion as he described his father's absence at his upcoming wedding.\n\n\"I always imagined him as my best man: standing by my side, to tell him I loved him, and to know he was so proud of the man I'd become,\" he said.\n\n\"More than anything, I wish I could get one last hug from him before walking down the aisle.\n\n\"That moment has been taken away from me.\"\n\nSydney father Simon Tadros, whose wife Vanessa died in the crash and son Nicholas was critically injured, said he would not wish his family's ongoing daily grief and trauma on his worst enemy.\n\n\"Getting closure will be impossible for us, because Vanessa is not with us and I have to see my son living with the consequences of this fatal day,\" Mr Tadros said.\n\nNicholas, who has attended the inquest day in, day out with his father, still faced health problems and further surgeries after the crash left the then-10-year-old on life support and needing a leg amputated, Ms Lee was told.\n\nMr Tadros recalled the first time he met Vanessa in a cafe.\n\n\"Once I got to know her, I knew I wanted to be with her forever,\" he said.\n\nSea World Helicopters barrister Michael Trim also provided a statement passing on \"very sincere sympathies\" to the families for the loss of their loved ones in the \"terrible accident\".\n\nThe coroner has heard several weeks of evidence spread over three main sets of hearing days starting from April 2025.\n\nPassenger Winnie De Silva, a tourist from Victoria, relived how she initially thought she heard the helicopter striking a bird before it plunged 40 metres onto a sandbar.\n\n\"There was hot machinery on my body. I was screaming and screaming,\" she testified.\n\nPolice recalled a scene of \"absolute chaos\" as they rushed to locate survivors in the \"mangled wreck\".\n\nThe pilot killed in the crash, Ashley Jenkinson, later tested positive for the remnants of cocaine, the coroner heard.\n\nWitnesses testified seeing him snorting multiple lines of the drug following a New Year's Eve party in the days before the crash.\n\nVictoria's chief forensic toxicologist Dimitri Gerostamoulos, who gave evidence at mushroom murderer Erin Patterson's trial, testified that Mr Jenkinson was likely impaired by the after-effects of cocaine, alcohol and little sleep.\n\nSea World Helicopters chief executive Brett Newman strenuously denied any knowledge of Mr Jenkinson having any interest in recreational drugs.\n\nThe company had doubled its number of flights for the holiday busy season in what, the coroner heard, was \"one of the busiest air corridors in the country\".\n\nSea World owner Village Roadshow Theme Parks sold its joy flights operation in 2019 to Sea World Helicopters, which recently dumped the Sea World name.\n\nBoth the Hughes and Tadros families thanked the coroner and the Australian Transport Safety Bureau for their work investigating the crash and hoped it would prevent a similar tragedy in the future.\n\nThe inquest will spend the next several months receiving written submissions from the parties involved.",
