		Geoff Prosser, Minister for Small Business and Consumer Affairs, 1997.
		Prosser resigned from his post in July 1997 after a series of questions in Parliament about an alleged conflict of interest between his duties as Small Business Minister and his private financial interests in shopping centers.
		It was widely believed that the government did not wish Prosser to still be in his post when Parliament resumed in August.

	Attitudes to nuclear power changing, says inquiry head. 11/08/2005. ABC News Online
		The head of an inquiry into Australia's uranium resources says community attitudes are changing towards the use of nuclear-powered energy and says there has been little objection about the future development of the industry.
		Inquiry chairman and Liberal MP Geoff Prosser says Australia has 45 per cent of the world's uranium resources, but only supplies about 16 per cent of the market.
		But Mr Prosser says community attitudes are changing as pressure grows to reduce the reliance on fossil fuels.

	smh.com.au - The Sydney Morning Herald-
		Addressed to Jim, Joanna, Judi, Mal, Barry and Geoff (being Jim Lloyd, Joanna Gash, Judi Moylan, Mal Washer, Barry Haase and Geoff Prosser), there are more accusations of back-stabbing and treachery in Senator Sue's epistle than a pre-selection bout for a safe Labor seat.
		First up, Sue says Alan was duped by Judi and Geoff over the chairmanship for the China Friendship Group, which, Sue said, "was an extremely low thing for her and Geoff to do".
		And, as for Geoff, well Sue had "always assisted him in every way possible", and above and beyond the call of duty was the way she had defended Geoff when he was ousted as small business minister in 1997.

	Media Statement (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		The signing of an agreement with the owners for the acquisition of the land was announced in Perth today by Environment Minister Cheryl Edwardes and Federal Member for Forrest Geoff Prosser.
		Mr Prosser said reservation of this area and its integration into the surrounding national park network will form a critical part of the recovery strategy for the frogs.
		Mr Prosser said the Commonwealth would meet two-thirds of the cost of the land and the State Government would fund the remainder.

	The Association of Mining and Exploration Companies - Western Australia Mining & Exploration Membership (via CobWeb/3.1 ... (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		The inquiry, commenced in mid-2002, was carried out by the House of Representatives Standing Committee on Industry and Resources and was chaired by the Member for Forrest, the Hon Geoff Prosser.
		In February, 2004, the WA Premier, Geoff Gallop, announced an allocation of $12 million over the next four years to boost the State’s exploration effort.
		Evidently, the Howard Government fails to understand that it is essential that Australia needs to send a clear and strong message that it is dedicated to providing on-going geoscientific information at a level of excellence that ensures that Australia is seen as an exploration destination of first choice in the globally competitive exploration industry.

	Australian Labor Party: Prosser's Potato Import Scarmongering Unfounded And Irresponsible
		Irresponsible claims about potato imports made this week by Member for Forrest Geoff Prosser were exposed today in a Senate committee today as absolutely unfounded.
		Yesterdays West Australian reported Mr Prossers allegations that Western Australias potato growers, already feeling the pinch as a result of a glut on the market, are now exposed to the threat of additional competition from Libyan imports.
		Mr Prosser should have checked the facts with AQIS before going off half cocked with his scare mongering half baked story.

	John Howard
		Howard had tried to achieve a "clean governance" image by setting a strict ministerial code of conduct at the start of his term.
		This backfired, when a succession of five of his ministers (Jim Short, Geoff Prosser, John Sharp, David Jull and Peter McGauran) resigned following breaches or petty corruption.
		Another two ministers (John Moore and Warwick Parer) were saved after Howard simply dropped the code of conduct.

		Archives reveal that the first serious suggestions for the Natal Midlands Centre (Pietermaritzburg) to embark on a project to build their own observatory was made at a committee meeting on the 4th of December 1986 at the home of Mr Rusty Jarmain, the incumbent chairman.
		Various sub-committees were formed, sky-clarity surveys were done and some fund-raising efforts were made under the general heading of 'Project Palomar', but nothing much really happened over the next 8 years except the tragic fracturing of the new 16" mirror glass while being ground by Mr Ron Dale and Dr Geoff Prosser.
		The dream was not completely dead however, and in 1994, under the chairmanship of Mr Tim Chance, negotiations were concluded with the Girl Guides Association to sub-lease approximately 1 hectare of their land at World's View on the hill overlooking Pietermaritzburg.

	Western Australia: Much at stake in WA poll - 10 February, 2001 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		After eight years in power the Court Government is facing possible defeat or at least a significant reduction in its present 13 seat majority when Western Australian voters go to the polls on February 10, in the first of a series of State and Federal elections for 2001.
		The campaign by the ALP under would-be Premier, Dr Geoff Gallop, has been generally considered lacklustre and uninspired.
		The predicted swing to Labor is seen as more likely to result from a general feeling that the Liberals have been in office for too long and it is time for a change rather than from any genuine enthusiasm for a Gallop-led Labor Government.

	Note on the Job Market, 1995
		Only the next line, ``Widespread rumors asserted that some departments counted over a hundred applicants for each available position,'' gives away that the year is not 1995, a year in which many departments count over a thousand applicants per position, but 1971.
		This prophet of doom is none other than our own Reese Prosser [Prosser, 1971].
		In 1995 we face a job market which is as bad as or worse than that of the early 1970's.

		The Opposition pushed hard, and Mr Prosser was forced to go.
		Senator Parer has now put the Government in the difficult, if not impossible, position of trying to save him.

		Senator Harradine's dissenting report also highlighted the abuses of human rights carried out internationally by the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) including its involvement with countries such as China with its program of forced abortion and sterilisation and Serbia with its ethnic cleansing by sterilisation and abortion of Kosovar women.
		In a further dissenting report four Coalition members - Liberals, Geoff Prosser, Andrew Southcott and Andrew Thomson as well as De-Anne Kelly from the National Party - opposed ratification of the Rome Statute for the International Criminal Court (ICC).
		Thomson is Chairman, and Kelly a member, of the Joint Standing Committee on Treaties which is independently considering whether it is in Australia's interest to ratify the ICC Statute.

		During the Coalition's first term, five ministers (Jim Short, Geoff Prosser, John Sharp, David Jull and Peter McGauran), two parliamentary secretaries (Brian Gibson and Bob Woods) and several senior staff members were found to have flouted these standards, and consequently lost their jobs (of course, the MPs kept their seats in parliament).
		Two other ministers (John Moore and Warwick Parer) and parliamentary secretary Warren Entsch escaped dismissal because the government was paying too high a price for enforcing the code of conduct.

	FileMaker 8.5: Integrating the Web
		Sebastopol, CA--Just in time for the release of FileMaker 8.5, Susan Prosser's new FileMaker 8.5: Integrating the Web (O'Reilly, US $7.99) is the inexpensive and highly informative PDF for everyone who's ready to jumpstart FileMaker 8.5.
		FileMaker itself is the ideal database, according to Prosser, FileMaker Pro 8 Certified Developer, and president of the consulting firm DBHQ: it's approachable, and user-friendly, but with unsuspected depth for those willing to poke around.
		But you don't have to store or maintain that data, since it stays on the Web, where it belongs." For example, "you'll see a different Google search result or MapQuest map or FedEx tracking page in the Web Viewer for each of the records in your database."

		Hey, did you hear the one about Small Business Minister Geoff Prosser?
		Apparently, back in the early 90s, he employed Jan Pope - wife of WA League of Rights leader Murray Pope - in one of his electorate offices.
		But the drift away from the major parties will continue, the rise of quasi-fundamentalist politics will continue, and one day in the next decade, Australia will reap what has been sown by those who had real power and influence and yet were mesmerised by a shrill wannabe from Ipswich.

		Oh, and Geoff, the politics is not the ALP picking up extra votes but not losing votes they currently have.
		Labor’s position will enable Howard to play the forward-looking leader ready to consider all options, look to the future, etc., etc., and at the same time play the concern about global warming card.
		Except that they’re not; the AFR this morning listed Nick Minchin (Finance Minister), Geoff Prosser (chair of parliamentary inquiry into non-fossil energy) and Ian Macfarlane (Industry Minister) as sceptics.
