White Hat criticism of Grocery Choice vindicated?
In August 2008 the Australian Government launched its
Grocery Choice website as part of an election promise which it said
would combat grocery price rises by publicising individual item price comparisons
between major distributors. White Hat believed to model was flawed
from the start and gave our reasons in the strong criticism we in
our food newsletter published two days after the launch of the site.
In June, the Australian Government suddenly and unexpectedly
terminated the scheme. You can read White Hat's initial criticisms
which could also prove useful in the implementation of any future
scheme at

White Hat Food Newsletter of August 2008. |
TOURISM NEWS
Qantas In Flight Magazine chooses
White Hat
Cemetery Tour as its featured Australian tour for May
There are many fine historical tours
throughout Australia including cemetery tours. From these, the
prestigious Qantas In Flight Magazine has chosen the White Hat Tour
of Melbourne Cemetery as its featured Australian tour for the May
2007 edition. This tour was also featured by ABC radio on 24 May and
will feature in a documentary series on Burke and Wills to be shown
on European television in 2008. The tour has been operating for many years and has won
praise from a wide range of sources. This is not a dry and stuffy
tour but in keeping with all White Hat offerings it is Informed,
Intelligent, Independent (and occasionally) Irreverent. You can find
details of the tour at White
Hat Tour of Melbourne Cemetery and view the article at
Qantas In Flight Magazine. |
