Mr. FIHELLY (Puddington) asked the Premier- " Does he purpose taking- any action in regard to the grave disclosures con­ tained in the Auditor-General's report upon the Railway Department 1 " The PREMIER (Hon. D. F. Denham, Oxl<y) replied- " The Secretary for Railways is al­ ready taking action in this matter," ALLEGED FALSII!ICATION OF SURVEYORS' FIELD NOTES. Mr. THEODORE (Chillagoe) asked the Secretary for Public Lands- " 1. Does he know (a) that cert<tlll officers of his department are guilty of th" dishonest practice of falsifying sur­ veyors' field notes; (b) that as a rP3ult of such falsifications certain surveyors have been paid larger fees t~1an they were entitled to under the regulations; and (c) that these additional fees, fraudulently obtained from the depart­ ment, come out of the pockets of new selectors? " 2. Has he taken anv action with regard to the surveyors ·whose records were altered or t,P t1H, persons '..Vho are responsible for the falsifications? " 3. Has the work of the surveyors m whose notes the fabifications were noticed been examined on the ground 1 " 4. Are the persons n•sponeible for the fraudulent practices still holding positions in the department 1 "5.

Investigation is proceeding with regard to some irregularities con­ nected with the preparation of surveyors' vouchers, and a Public Service Board inquiiy will be held later. The matter has no connection \chatP.ver w·ith the survey fees paid by selectors. A charge against a particular contract :;urveyor has been inquired into by the ':'lurvey:>rs' Board, with the result that the board, while absolutely acquitting the surveyor of any £r,audulent intentDn, suspended his license for a fortnight on the ground of want of care.

  • Chapter Five
    5 2WKHULVVXHV Funding and disclosure Funding entitlements 5.1 Part XX of the Commonwealth Electoral Act 1918 (Electoral Act) provides for public funding of election campaigns to be made available to candidates and political parties who receive at least four per cent of the formal first preference vote. This funding ensures candidates are not disadvantaged in their appeal to electors or unduly influenced in their subsequent actions by lack of access to adequate funding. 5.2 Mr and Mrs Whitton, Mr Arthur Tuck and Mr Goldstiver call for the elimination of public funding to political parties for election campaigns.1 G W Spence and Mr Lockett suggest a restriction be placed on the amount that can be spent on election campaigns to reduce the amount of public funding necessary.2 5.3 The public funding entitlements for the 1998 federal election, including the Newcastle supplementary election, totalled $33,920,787.43. The funding rate was 162.210 cents per vote3 and this has been paid to party agents and independent candidates as shown in Table 5.1. 1 Submissions pp S592 (H&M.Whitton), S667 (M.Goldstiver) and S1844 (A.Tuck) 2 Submissions pp S214 (GW.Spence) and S632-S633 (E.Lockett) 3 Australian Electoral Commission. 1999.

    The Hon Peter Lindsay OAM 28 October 2016 Committee Secretary Joint Standing Committee on Electoral Matters Parliament House Canberra ACT 2600 Dear Secretary Inquiry into the 2016 Federal Election Thank you for the opportunity to make a submission to this inquiry. This submission deals with the continuing improper voting practices on Palm Island. Palm Island is located about 30Km off the North Queensland coast and lies 70Km North East of Townsville. It is in the Federal Division of Herbert and is one of the largest Indigenous communities in Australia. There are various conflicting estimates of the population size in the range of 3,000–3,500 residents. Over the years and for various reasons, the community has seen continuing questionable elections. A previous submission to JSCEM outlined alleged breaches of the Commonwealth Electoral Act 1918 under part xxi--electoral offences – section 326 (the bribery provision). At that election, party workers were offering indigenous voters T-shirts and McDonalds food vouchers as they entered the polling booth. There was a clear intention to influence or affect the vote of another person by giving a benefit to that other person. At the 2016 election, one major Party did not have scrutineers at the Palm Island booth. After polling day, a highly respected member of a religious order called me to report that booth workers from the other major Party were telling voters that the way of voting had changed and that they would fill out their ballot paper for them. This is a breach of section 233 of the Act (Vote to be marked in private).
