The publication should be attributed as Australian Electoral Commission 2013 Electoral Pocketbook. ii Foreword The 2013 Electoral Pocketbook provides a comprehensive yet compact guide to the 2013 federal election, incorporating the results of the WA Senate election, which was re-run in 2014 following a decision by the Court of Disputed Returns. During the 2013 federal election, more than 13.5 million people cast their ballots over a three week period. To achieve this over 70 000 polling officials were employed in more than 9 000 polling places. This Pocketbook outlines comprehensive information about the election, such as enrolment figures, types of votes cast, data on formal and informal votes and election funding and financial disclosure. Like previous editions of the Pocketbook, this edition also contains historical information about Australia’s electoral system and processes, an explanation of counting votes and the nomination process as well as information about redistributions and referendums. For additional information regarding the Australian electoral system I encourage you to go to the AEC website www.aec.gov.au. The Commonwealth Electoral Act 1918, Referendum (Machinery Provisions) Act 1984 and the Australian Constitution are also comprehensive sources of information about electoral and referendum processes. I commend this Pocketbook to you as a valuable resource on the 2013 federal election.

The Australian Electoral Commission The Australian Electoral Commission (AEC) was established on 21 February 1984, following major amendments to the Commonwealth Electoral Act 1918 (the Act). The AEC is an independent statutory authority, responsible for administering the Act and the Referendum (Machinery Provisions) Act 1984. The AEC conducts federal elections and referendums, and maintains the Commonwealth electoral roll. The AEC has one key outcome: Maintain an impartial and independent electoral system for eligible voters through active electoral roll management, efficient delivery of polling services and targeted education and public awareness programs. It achieves this through three programs: Program 1.1: Electoral Roll Management Program Objective – Voter entitlement for Australians and support for electoral events and redistributions through maintaining an accurate and up-to-date electoral roll. Program 1.2: Election Management and Support Services Program Objective – Access to an impartial and independent electoral system through the provision of election services, assistance and advice. Program 1.3: Education and Communication Program Objective – Informed Australians through the provision of information services on electoral matters. ARCHIVED 2 Section 1 The Australian Electoral Commission 2 ARCHIVED Parliamentary 2representation 2. Parliamentary representation When Australia became a Federation in 1901, the Commonwealth Parliament was created. The Commonwealth Parliament consists of the Head of State and two houses, the Senate and the House of Representatives. All Australian citizens aged 18 years and over vote for people to represent them in both houses of Parliament. 2.1 The Senate The Senate is the upper house of the Commonwealth Parliament. It consists of 76 senators: twelve representing each of the six states and two each representing the NT and the ACT. Voters in each state and territory elect the people to represent them in the Senate. In 1901, there were six senators elected from each state, giving a total of 36. There have been three increases to the size of the Senate since Federation. Legislation passed in 1948 increased the number of senators from 36 to 60 (ten per state). In 1974 the number of senators was increased from 60 to 64 when the ACT and the NT each gained two senators. In 1983 the number of senators increased from 64 to 76 (12 per state and two per territory). Changes took effect at the elections that followed. Senators for each state are elected for six-year terms on a rotating basis, with half the senators retiring every three years (or facing a half-Senate election). The terms of senators representing the ACT and the NT commence on the day of their election and expire the day before the next federal election. The election of territory senators is held at the same time as the election of members for the House of Representatives. ARCHIVED 4 Section 2 Parliamentary representation 2.2 The House of Representatives The House of Representatives is the lower house or ‘people’s house’ of the Commonwealth Parliament. Each member of the House of Representatives is elected to represent an area known as an electoral division or electorate. For the 2013 federal election, Australia was divided into 150 electoral divisions as follows: State/territory Divisions NSW 48 Vic. 37 Qld 30 WA 15 SA 11 Tas. 5 ACT 2 NT 2 Total 150 Each electoral division within a state or territory contains about the same number of people on the electoral roll. Voters in each electoral division elect one person to represent them in the House of Representatives. Determining the number of members The number of members elected to the House of Representatives for each state is proportional to the number of people in that state. Australia’s Constitution provides the original states are to have a minimum of five members. The Act provides that at least one member is to be chosen in the ACT and the NT, and sets out a formula for determining the representation entitlements of the territories. Forming government The political party or coalition of parties which gains the support of a majority in theARCHIVED House of Representatives forms the Government. The Prime Minister and the Leader of the Opposition are usually members of the House of Representatives. Terms of members The maximum term of the House of Representatives is three years, taken from the date on which the elected House first meets. However, the Governor-General has the power to dissolve the House of Representatives and call an election before the end of the three year period. The House of Representatives 5 2.3 Representation in the territories The NT and the ACT have not always been represented in the Commonwealth Parliament. The NT gained one member of the House of Representatives with limited voting rights in 1922. Full voting rights were not acquired until 1968. The NT is currently represented by two members in the House of Representatives. The ACT gained one member with limited voting rights in 1948.

  • Swanbourne History Trail
    Swanbourne History Trail BACKGROUND TO THE VILLAGE The village of Swanbourne can trace its roots back to Anglo- Saxon times. The first mention of ‘Suanaburna’ comes in a document of 792 relating to the granting by King Offa of the parishes of Winslow, Granborough and Little Horwood for the establishment of St. Alban’s Abbey. The name probably means ‘peasant’s brook’, and so originally referred to the stream which flows along the western border of the parish, rather than the village itself. At the time of the Doomsday Book in 1086, the parish was divided between 5 landholders, although one of these was extremely small. One of the major landholders was King William (The Bastard or Conqueror) who took over land belonging to King Harold. William’s half-brother the Count of Mortain also held land, and the other two major landholders were Walter Giffard and William, son of Ansculf. In 1206, much of the village lands were granted to Woburn Abbey, but following Henry VIII’s dissolution of the Abbey in 1538, the land and Overlordship of the Manor of Swanbourne was sold on to the Fortescues, then the Adams, then the Deverells and finally the Fremantles. This trail starts from The Betsey Wynne public house which was opened in July 2006. The pub takes its name from Betsey Fremantle (nee Wynne), wife of Thomas Fremantle, who was a captain in the Royal Navy and a close friend of Admiral Nelson. Thomas and Betsey, together with their new-born son, also called Thomas, moved to Swanbourne in 1798.

Thank you for the opportunity to provide the submission responsive to the Terms of Reference of the Joint Standing Committee on Electoral Matters’ (‘JSCEM’) regarding the Inquiry into and report on all aspects of the conduct of the 2019 Federal Election and matters related thereto. Introduction 2. I am a lawyer based in Brisbane, Queensland. I was a candidate in the 2019 federal election in the federal division of Dickson in Queensland (‘Dickson’). On or about 18 May 2018, I was preselected by the Queensland Greens for the federal division of Dickson. I spent the best part of 10 months campaigning in relation to the 2018-2019 federal election from about July 2018 to May 2019. 3. I note the broad Terms of Reference for this inquiry as follows: That the Joint Standing Committee on Electoral Matters inquire into and report on all aspects of the conduct of the 2019 Federal Election and matters related thereto.1 4. The matter I wish to provide a submission on is the occurrence of misleading How-to- Vote brochures that were handed out at about 9 polling booths across Dickson on Election Day, 18 May 2019, under the title “Vote for Queensland – How to Vote for a Minor Party or Independent” and which directly contradicted the official How-to-Vote Card of my campaign and the official How-to-Vote cards of other Minority Parties and the Independent Candidate for Dickson.

  • Blatantly Misleading Dickson How to Vote Cards for Minor Parties & Independent Candidate Distributed at the 2019 Federal Election
    27 September 2019 Committee Secretary, Joint Standing Committee on Electoral Matters, PO Box 6021, Parliament House, Canberra ACT 2600 Blatantly Misleading Dickson How To Vote Cards for Minor Parties & Independent Candidate distributed at the 2019 Federal Election Dear Committee Secretary, Thank you for the opportunity to provide a submission responsive to the Joint Standing Committee on Electoral Matters’ (‘JSCEM’) regarding the Inquiry into and report on all aspects of the conduct of the 2019 Federal Election and matters related thereto. At the last federal election, the following Candidates for Dickson were misrepresented on a How To Vote card produced by a party called Vote For Queensland: • Maureen Brohman – Animal Justice party • Benedict Coyne – The Greens • Richelle Simpson from Anning Conservative National • Steve Austin – United Australia Party • Carrol Halliwell – One Nation • Thor Prohaska - Independent The following candidates have prepared a combined submission to the Joint Standing Committee on Electoral Matters in relation to this matter: • Thor Prohaska, • Maureen Brohman • Carrol Halliwell In summary we make the submission below calling for a substantive response to address the inability of the Australian Electoral Commission ( AEC )to be able to take any action with regards to blatantly misleading How To Vote (HTV) Cards like that authorised by Warwick Armstrong as shown below in this submission (hereafter referred to as “the Misleading Armstrong How-to-Vote-Card”). Fraudulent Dickson How To Vote Cards for Minor Parties & Independent Candidates distributed at the 2019 Federal Election The AEC technical interpretation of Section 329 may be legally correct but, any fair minded person would conclude that the aim of this Misleading Armstrong How-to-Vote-Card was to mislead voters to the benefit of the incumbent and LNP candidate Dutton It sure doesn’t pass the ‘Pub Test’.
