  • A Twentieth-Century Aboriginal Family
    Chapter 10 The Northern Territory, 1972 The 1972 Federal election was a time of heightened tension among interest groups in Australia. The Liberal-Country Party coalition had been in power since 1949 and all politically minded people sensed a change. All except those in power. Aboriginal poverty, high infant mortality rates and the question of Land Rights left Aboriginal leaders wondering how they could contribute in the political milieu they were confronted with. Charlie Perkins had been telling me for three or four years that he wanted to ‘get rid of this government’, in particular to show his contempt for the Country Party. Charlie at the time was an Assistant Secretary in the Department of Aboriginal Affairs and in spite of his role as a bureaucrat he was intimately involved in Aboriginal politics. So was I. On many occasions he would express his confidence that change in Aboriginal people’s living conditions were just around the corner while at other times he would be filled with despair. The time frame between accepting the nomination to run for the Northern Territory seat and leaving Sydney was very tight. As a family we had to sell the Summer Hill house to finance getting to, and living in Alice Springs. I had to resign from the Legal Service, make contact with the Australia Party base in Darwin and prepare my thinking for an election campaign. One of the first things I did was to speak to my colleague Len Smith to seek his views about if, and how, I should run my campaign.

  • Gerry Mccarthy New World War II Exhibition Open At
    Gerry McCarthy MINISTER FOR ARTS & MUSEUMS 15 February 2011 New World War II Exhibition Open at the Northern Territory Library Arts and Museums Minister Gerry McCarthy today invited Territorians to visit a new World War II exhibition currently open to the public at the Northern Territory Library. Mr McCarthy said The Track: 1000 Miles to War focuses on military activities along the Stuart Highway from Alice Springs to Darwin during the Second World War. “This exhibition focuses on the transformation of a rutted dirt stock route to a fully functioning highway supporting crucial military operations during World War II,” Mr McCarthy said. “Through a series of display panels, visitors to this exhibition will learn about a significant history and the enormous benefit the north-south road brought to Territorians and how Alice Springs became the Territory’s main military base following the bombing of Darwin.” This exhibition will be on display at the Library until 20 March 2011 and will then travel the Stuart Highway and be displayed at the Museum of Central Australia in Alice Springs from 15 April to 16 October 2011. Also on display in the Library will be Sam Calder’s flying log book and medals, which are highly treasured by the Library. Calder flew Typhoon planes throughout World War II, completing 120 missions over Europe and receiving the Distinguished Flying Cross. Mr McCarthy also encouraged Territorians to attend a lunchtime talk at the Library this Saturday commemorating the 69 th anniversary of the Bombing of Darwin. “His Honour the Administrator, Mr Tom Pauling AO QC, will host the talk and be joined in conversation by former Administrator, Mr Austin Asche AC QC and at the completion of the talk, Mr Pauling will officially launch the exhibition,” Mr McCarthy said.

Wrigley and Murphy landed in the Territory after flying from Point Cook in Victoria on 8th December 1919. Yet the location of this event remains unclear. Was it Alexandria Station or Avon Downs Station? And why was such an important event not well recorded?

  • Approaching a Centenary of Achievement for Regional Australia
    APPROACHING A CENTENARY OF ACHIEVEMENT FOR REGIONAL AUSTRALIA Written and compiled by Paul Davey THE NATIONAL PARTY IS... • The most democratic, non-factionalised and stable political party in Australia, proud of its independent identity and offering equal opportunity to all. • The second oldest political party in Australia, celebrating its Centenary on 22 January 2020. • An organisation that - • through its State affiliates, has the largest membership across regional Australia of any political party • has never been unrepresented in the Commonwealth Parliament, despite predictions since its formation that it would fail • by 2018 had returned 180 members and senators to the Commonwealth Parliament, representing regional interests across Australia • has accumulated an enviable record of achievements on the statute books by working forcefully in Federal Coalition governments • has ensured from the first Federal Coalition agreement that its Parliamentary Leader is the Deputy Prime Minister and acts as Prime Minister when that person is absent • while formed to drive better political outcomes for agricultural industries, has long been more than a ‘farmers’ party’, fighting for better services, facilities, and opportunities for people living and working beyond the capital cities. • The Party’s greatest achievement is its independence. Its very existence has forced other parties to pay greater attention to the needs of regional Australia than would otherwise have been the case. Without an independent National Party, Federal policy development would be dominated by city interests and city-based politicians. • A Country Party brochure, Mileposts, charting achievements to 1950, observed: You“ can’t afford to be without a Country Party … Thank your stars there is a Country Party ” Change Country Party to National Party and the statement remains true today.

  • Ensuring Fair Representation of the Northern Territory) Bill 2020
    SUBMISSION ON THE INQUIRY INTO THE COMMONWEALTH ELECTORAL AMENDMENT (ENSURING FAIR REPRESENTATION OF THE NORTHERN TERRITORY) BILL 2020 By The Honourable Jane Aagaard AM Introduction I write this submission in strong support of the legislation to ensure the Northern Territory retains two seats in the House of Representatives. I do so as a former Speaker of the Legislative Assembly of the Northern Territory (2005 to October 2012), Member of the Legislative Assembly for the seat of Nightcliff (ALP, 2001-2012), former Chair of the Statehood Steering Committee (October 2008- November 2010) and former Chair of the Northern Territory Constitutional Convention Committee (2010-December 2012). I have lived, worked and raised a family in the Northern Territory since late 1985 and have a strong interest in Territorians having an equal say at the table in our Federation. I have also travelled widely across the Northern Territory both in my capacity as a former business owner and as a Member of Parliament and I am aware of the many challenges faced by Territorians particularly in the more remote parts of the Territory. These challenges are also reflected in the work of our members of the House of Representatives and our two Senators. To reduce the representation to one seat would be virtually impossible to service. It would be the only electorate to have one sixth of the landmass of Australia, a capital city and various towns, military bases, people living in deserts and islands, which can only be reached at certain times of the year by boat or plane as well as the challenges of multiple indigenous languages and migrants from fifty – two countries, on top of which is added the External Territories the 1 Cocos and Keeling Islands and Christmas Island which are located in the Indian Ocean around 2751km from Darwin and can only be accessed by significant air travel via Perth or Jakarta.
