Anne-Maree Tiernan BA (Australian National University) BComm (Hons) (Griffith University) Department of Politics and Public Policy, Griffith University Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy November 2004 Abstract This thesis traces the development of the ministerial staffing system in Australian Commonwealth government from 1972 to the present. It explores four aspects of its contemporary operations that are potentially problematic. These are: the accountability of ministerial staff, their conduct and behaviour, the adequacy of current arrangements for managing and controlling the staff, and their fit within a Westminster-style political system. In the thirty years since its formal introduction by the Whitlam government, the ministerial staffing system has evolved to become a powerful new political institution within the Australian core executive. Its growing importance is reflected in the significant growth in ministerial staff numbers, in their increasing seniority and status, and in the progressive expansion of their role and influence. There is now broad acceptance that ministerial staff play necessary and legitimate roles, assisting overloaded ministers to cope with the unrelenting demands of their jobs. However, recent controversies involving ministerial staff indicate that concerns persist about their accountability, about their role and conduct, and about their impact on the system of advice and support to ministers and prime ministers.
  • Sixteen Years of Labor Government in South Australia, 2002-2018

    Sixteen Years of Labor Government in South Australia, 2002-2018

    AUSTRALASIAN PARLIAMENTARY REVIEW Parliament in the Periphery: Sixteen Years of Labor Government in South Australia, 2002-2018* Mark Dean Research Associate, Australian Industrial Transformation Institute, Flinders University of South Australia * Double-blind reviewed article. Abstract This article examines the sixteen years of Labor government in South Australia from 2002 to 2018. With reference to industry policy and strategy in the context of deindustrialisation, it analyses the impact and implications of policy choices made under Premiers Mike Rann and Jay Weatherill in attempts to progress South Australia beyond its growing status as a ‘rustbelt state’. Previous research has shown how, despite half of Labor’s term in office as a minority government and Rann’s apparent disregard for the Parliament, the executive’s ‘third way’ brand of policymaking was a powerful force in shaping the State’s development. This article approaches this contention from a new perspective to suggest that although this approach produced innovative policy outcomes, these were a vehicle for neo-liberal transformations to the State’s institutions. In strategically avoiding much legislative scrutiny, the Rann and Weatherill governments’ brand of policymaking was arguably unable to produce a coordinated response to South Australia’s deindustrialisation in a State historically shaped by more interventionist government and a clear role for the legislature. In undermining public services and hollowing out policy, the Rann and Wethearill governments reflected the path dependency of responses to earlier neo-liberal reforms, further entrenching neo-liberal responses to social and economic crisis and aiding a smooth transition to Liberal government in 2018. INTRODUCTION For sixteen years, from March 2002 to March 2018, South Australia was governed by the Labor Party.

  • Citizens' Jury

    Citizens' Jury

    SUNDAY VERSION South Australia’s Citizens’ Jury on Nuclear Waste Final Report November 2016 “Under what circumstances, if any, could South Australia pursue the opportunity to store and dispose of nuclear waste from other countries?” Jury Summary Statement The Citizens Jury would like to Acknowledge that we have been meeting on Kaurna land and we pay our respects to the Traditional owners, past and present, across South Australia. The jury generally had a strong conviction in taking a position one way or another. Two thirds of the jury do not wish to pursue the opportunity under any circumstances and one third support a commitment to pursue under the circumstances outlined in this report. Introduction: Citizen’s Jury 2 (CJ2) was a group of 350 residents of South Australia who were brought together under the remit of discussing and reporting on the question: “Under what circumstances, if any, could South Australia pursue the opportunity to store and dispose of high level nuclear waste from other countries?”. To be clear, the jury considered only high-level nuclear waste. The people on Citizen’s Jury Two were selected to be broadly representative of the population of South Australia based on demographics (as best as was possible based on the responses to the initial invitation to take part). The 50 jurors from Citizen’s Jury One were also invited back to be part of the second jury process and approximately 30 of them decided to take part in the second jury. On the first day of the jury, we established some guiding principles for how we should approach the process.

    Legislative Assembly

    948 LEGISLATIVE ASSEMBLY Thursday 21 March 2002 ______ The Clerk announced the absence of Mr Speaker. Mr Deputy-Speaker took the chair at 10.00 a.m. Mr Deputy-Speaker offered the Prayer. BUSINESS OF THE HOUSE Routine of Business Mr WHELAN (Strathfield—Parliamentary Secretary) [10.00 a.m.]: As Parliament sat late last night it was not possible for members to contribute to the Address-in-Reply debate. I therefore propose that the Address-in-Reply debate commence tomorrow at 10.00 a.m. Members should indicate to their Whips whether they desire to speak in that debate. A large number of members also wish to make private member's statements. I therefore propose that private members' statements commence at 2.00 p.m. tomorrow. A Minister may also deliver a second reading speech but debate on that bill will be adjourned. LOCAL GOVERNMENT AMENDMENT (ETHICS REVIEW PANEL) BILL Second Reading Debate resumed from 14 March. Mr BARR (Manly) [10.02 p.m.]: The purpose of this bill is to provide greater certainty to members of the public and to councillors on the appropriate conduct of councillors and council. A vast grey area exists when dealing with the behaviour of members of local government. Although the Minister for Local Government has the ultimate sanction of dismissing council, his only powers are those of persuasion. There is a lot of public concern about the conduct of councillors and many perceive councils as getting away with things. I will couch my speech in positive terms in an attempt to improve the standards and conduct of councils and councillors and to give the public greater confidence in the conduct of councillors.

    Overview of Political Themes 2002 Final V1

    Overview of Key Political and Policy Themes South Australia January to December 2002 Dr Haydon Manning, School of Social and Policy Studies, Flinders University Election 2002 During the decade and a half preceding 2002, South Australians experienced only four years of government by a party able to command a clear majority on the floor of the House of Assembly. The outcome of the 9 February 2002 State election altered nothing in this regard. The 2002 election result is summarised below for both houses – note, neither major party gained a majority of seats in the House of Assembly or sufficient seats to control the Legislative Council. Notably, the Liberal Party once again failed to form government after winning the majority of the two party preferred and first preference votes.
