- The centenary of Australia's nationhood should be a time for people to celebrate the simple joy of being Australian, Prime Minister John Howard says.

- The Queensland Liberals are in danger of losing the blue-ribbon Brisbane seat of Ryan in a federal by-election and the State party is on the verge of implosion, according to former party vice-president Graham Young.

- A plan to devolve power from Indonesia's centralised Jakarta government has created more uncertainty for the country's beleaguered mining industry.

- Smorgon Steel and OneSteel have moved to allay the concerns of the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission about the structure of their $815 million takeover offer for Email Ltd.
