His EXCELLENCY THE GOVERNOR-GENERAL'S SPEECH.-Mr. Speaker reported that the House had that day attended His Excellency the Governor-General in the Senate Chamber, when His Excellency was pleased to make a Speech to both Houses of the Parliament, of which Mr. Speaker had received a copy, which read as follows : MEMBERS OF THE SENATE AND MEMBERS OF THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES : You have been called together to deal with matters of national moment. The first session of the Twenty-second Parliament having ended by prorogation, I am now opening the second session of that Parliament. The recent visit to Australia by His Royal Highness The Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, gave great pleasure to all of us and was greatly enjoyed by him. While in Australia His Royal Highness opened the Olympic Games at Melbourne and took the opportunity to pay informal visits to the Territories and to our major developmental projects. More recently we have rejoiced in His Royal Highness' elevation to the rank of a Prince of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. When I last addressed you I referred to the important constitutional problem of the relationship between the two Houses, and to the intention of my advisers to set up a committee to examine this and other constitutional problems. That committee was set up and has made substantial progress in the work of reviewing the constitution. Much still remains to be done. You will therefore be asked to reconstitute this committee immediately in order that its work may suffer as little interruption as possible. On the international plane, events are complicated and uneasy. In July, 1956, Egypt by her act of nationalization of the Suez Canal disturbed a pattern of guaranteed international interest which had existed since the Constantinople Convention of 1888. My Government, with other users of the Canal, participated in a conference in London wherein the hope rested for a formula which would protect the interests of all parties and isolate the operation of the Canal from the politics of any one country. The Parliament will recall that my Prime Minister was closely associated with those efforts to seek a peaceful solution. In October, 1956, hostilities broke out between Egypt and Israel, and the United Kingdom and French Governments intervened. The subsequent history of events is well known. My Government will continue actively to pursue an overall settlement of the basic problems of the Middle East which have so often threatened the peace of the post-war world. It is essential that the questions between Israel and Egypt should be disposed of, and the future of the Canal assured. We welcome the declaration by the President of the United States of America of his intention to exercise the influence of and discharge the responsibilities which his great country has recently accepted in the troubled affairs of the Middle East. Concurrently with the crisis in the Middle East, events in Eastern Europe have indicated the strains and stresses to which the satellite states are subject. The people of Australia-and indeed of the whole free world-were deeply shocked at the calculated and ruthless armed intervention by the Soviet Union to suppress the national aspirations of the Hungarian people in October-November, 1956. This intervention was a flagrant breach of the Peace Treaty of 1947 which had guaranteed democratic freedoms to the Hungarian people, and to which the Soviet Union was a signatory. The Australian people showed their practical sympathy by organizing on a large scale voluntary relief, whilst my Government made grants amounting to £130,000 and also took immediate measures to arrange facilities for 10,000 refugees from Hungary to find permanent sanctuary in Australia. In its approach to international problems my Government has continued its policy of strengthening the Commonwealth relationship. In June-July 1956 a meeting of Prime Ministers of the Commonwealth took place in London. As Members of this Parliament know, the United Kingdom Prime Minister, Mr. Macmillan, has expressed the hope that following a conference between President Eisenhower and himself a further meeting of Commonwealth Prime Ministers will be convened to discuss matters of mutual interest. Meanwhile, Australia welcomes the emergence of the independent African State of Ghana as a full member of the Commonwealth and looks forward with warm fraternal interest to the impending achievement of independence, within the Commonwealth, by the Federation of Malaya. VOTES AND PROCEEDINGS OF THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES. 3 19th March, 1957. At the invitation of my Government the SEATO Council of Foreign Ministers recently met in Canberra from the 11th to the 13th March, 1957. This high level meeting approved plans which will further strengthen the organization which provides a shield against aggression in an area of vital interest to Australia. Already the SEATO Council has been able to record rapid progress by member nations in thbir common problems of defence and of economic and social development. That Council has noted incessant efforts by international communism to subvert the free institutions of the nations of the area. Special attention has, therefore, been given to the threat to the internal security of nations within the region. Australia also continues its undiminished support for the Colombo Plan and the Australian contribution will continue to emphasise technical and training assistance.

    6545 LEGISLATIVE ASSEMBLY Wednesday 25 February 2004 ______ Mr Speaker (The Hon. John Joseph Aquilina) took the chair at 10.00 a.m. Mr Speaker offered the Prayer. AUDITOR-GENERAL'S REPORT Mr Speaker announced the receipt, pursuant to section 52A of the Public Finance and Audit Act 1983, of the report entitled "New South Wales Auditor-General's Report—Financial Audits—Volume One 2004". Ordered to be printed. STRATA SCHEMES MANAGEMENT AMENDMENT BILL Second Reading Debate resumed from 4 December 2003. Ms KATRINA HODGKINSON (Burrinjuck) [10.00 a.m.]: The Opposition will not oppose the Strata Schemes Management Amendment Bill. However, during consultation stakeholders raised a number of concerns about several aspects of the bill and the way in which some of its provisions will impact on strata management practices. I will read onto the Parliamentary record a collection of the stakeholders' comments about the proposed legislation. I take the opportunity to thank the many stakeholders who were contacted for their response to the legislation, in particular, the Property Owners Association of New South Wales for its detailed submission and the Institute for Strata Title Management Ltd and the Retirement Village Residents Association for their respective submissions. Strata living is an important feature of a considerable segment of the State's population. The Strata Titles Act and its successor, the Strata Schemes Management Act, were designed to deal with relatively small blocks of units for a group of residents who were able to manage the property, often assisted by a strata managing agent. Such residents are now called an "executive committee" in this bill.

  • The Caretaker Election
    26. The Results and the Pendulum Malcolm Mackerras The two most interesting features of the 2010 election were that it was close and it was an early election. Since early elections are two-a-penny in our system, I shall deal with the closeness of the election first. The early nature of the election does, however, deserve consideration because it was early on two counts. These are considered below. Of our 43 general elections so far, this was the only one both to be close and to be an early election. Table 26.1 Months of General Elections for the Australian House of Representatives, 1901–2010 Month Number Years March 5 1901,1983, 1990, 1993, 1996 April 2 1910, 1951 May 4 1913, 1917, 1954, 1974 July 1 1987 August 2 1943, 2010 September 4 1914, 1934, 1940, 1946 October 6 1929, 1937, 1969, 1980, 1998, 2004 November 7 1925, 1928, 1958, 1963, 1966, 2001, 2007 December 12 1903, 1906, 1919, 1922, 1931, 1949, 1955, 1961, 1972, 1975, 1977, 1984 Total 43 The Close Election In the immediate aftermath of polling day, several commentators described this as the closest election in Australian federal history. While I can see why people would say that, I describe it differently. As far as I am concerned, there have been 43 general elections for our House of Representatives of which four can reasonably be described as having been close. They are the House of Representatives plus half-Senate elections held on 31 May 1913, 21 September 1940, 9 December 1961 and 21 August 2010.

In submissions by the Liberal Party of Australia (NSW Division) and the Liberal National Party of Queensland to the Redistribution Committees in New South Wales and Queensland respectively, our suggested boundaries mean a notional net loss of one seat to the Coalition in NSW and a notional net gain of one seat to the Liberal National Party of Queensland.
