2019 Nsw State Budget Estimates – Relevant Committee Members
2019 NSW STATE BUDGET ESTIMATES – RELEVANT COMMITTEE MEMBERS There are seven “portfolio” committees who run the budget estimate questioning process. These committees correspond to various specific Ministries and portfolio areas, so there may be a range of Ministers, Secretaries, Deputy Secretaries and senior public servants from several Departments and Authorities who will appear before each committee. The different parties divide up responsibility for portfolio areas in different ways, so some minor party MPs sit on several committees, and the major parties may have MPs with titles that don’t correspond exactly. We have omitted the names of the Liberal and National members of these committees, as the Alliance is seeking to work with the Opposition and cross bench (non-government) MPs for Budget Estimates. Government MPs are less likely to ask questions that have embarrassing answers. Victor Dominello [Lib, Ryde], Minister for Customer Services (!) is the minister responsible for Liquor and Gaming. Kevin Anderson [Nat, Tamworth], Minister for Better Regulation, which is located in the super- ministry group of Customer Services, is responsible for Racing. Sophie Cotsis [ALP, Canterbury] is the Shadow for Better Public Services, including Gambling, Julia Finn [ALP, Granville] is the Shadow for Consumer Protection including Racing (!). Portfolio Committee no. 6 is the relevant committee. Additional information is listed beside each MP. Bear in mind, depending on the sitting timetable (committees will be working in parallel), some MPs will substitute in for each other – an MP who is not on the standing committee but who may have a great deal of knowledge might take over questioning for a session.

Portfolio Committee No. 4 – Legal Affairs
REPORT ON PROCEEDINGS BEFORE PORTFOLIO COMMITTEE NO. 4 – LEGAL AFFAIRS EMERGENCY SERVICES AGENCIES UNCORRECTED PROOF At Macquarie Room, Parliament House, Sydney on Monday, 18 September 2017 The Committee met at 12:00 PRESENT The Hon. R. Borsak (Chair) The Hon. D. Clarke The Hon. C. Cusack The Hon. G. Donnelly The Hon. T. Khan The Hon. P. Primrose Mr D. Shoebridge The Hon. L. Voltz Monday, 18 September 2017 Legislative Council Page 1 The CHAIR: Welcome to the first hearing of Portfolio Committee No. 4 inquiring into emergency services agencies. Before I commence I would like to acknowledge the Gadigal people who are the traditional custodians of this land. I would also like to pay respect to elders past and present of the Eora nation and extend that respect to other Aboriginals present. The Committee is here today because our inquiry is considering the policy response to bullying, harassment and discrimination in emergency services agencies, including the NSW Rural Fire Service, Fire and Rescue NSW, the NSW Police Force, the Ambulance Service of NSW and the NSW State Emergency Service. This includes examining the prevalence of the issue, the effectiveness of what is in place to manage and resolve such complaints, along with what support is available for victims, workers and volunteers of emergency services agencies. Today is the first of several hearings we plan to hold for this inquiry. We will hear today from representatives of the Volunteer Fire Fighters Association, representatives from the NSW Rural Fire Service Association and senior officers from the NSW Rural Fire Service. I would like also to make some brief comments about the procedures for today's hearing.

Thesis August
Chapter 1 Introduction Section 1.1: ‘A fit place for women’? Section 1.2: Problems of sex, gender and parliament Section 1.3: Gender and the Parliament, 1995-1999 Section 1.4: Expectations on female MPs Section 1.5: Outline of the thesis Section 1.1: ‘A fit place for women’? The Sydney Morning Herald of 27 August 1925 reported the first speech given by a female Member of Parliament (hereafter MP) in New South Wales. In the Legislative Assembly on the previous day, Millicent Preston-Stanley, Nationalist Party Member for the Eastern Suburbs, created history. According to the Herald: ‘Miss Stanley proceeded to illumine the House with a few little shafts of humour. “For many years”, she said, “I have in this House looked down upon honourable members from above. And I have wondered how so many old women have managed to get here - not only to get here, but to stay here”. The Herald continued: ‘The House figuratively rocked with laughter. Miss Stanley hastened to explain herself. “I am referring”, she said amidst further laughter, “not to the physical age of the old gentlemen in question, but to their mental age, and to that obvious vacuity of mind which characterises the old gentlemen to whom I have referred”. Members obviously could not afford to manifest any deep sense of injury because of a woman’s banter. They laughed instead’. Preston-Stanley’s speech marks an important point in gender politics. It introduced female participation in the Twenty-seventh Parliament. It stands chronologically midway between the introduction of responsible government in the 1850s and the Fifty-first Parliament elected in March 1995.
