[Notices of motions given.] Bills STRONGER COMMUNITIES LEGISLATION AMENDMENT (DOMESTIC VIOLENCE) BILL 2020 First Reading Bill introduced on motion by Mr Mark Speakman, read a first time and printed. Second Reading Speech Mr MARK SPEAKMAN (Cronulla—Attorney General, and Minister for the Prevention of Domestic Violence) (09:46:44): I move: That this bill be now read a second time. The Stronger Communities Legislation Amendment (Domestic Violence) Bill 2020 introduces amendments to support procedural improvements and to close gaps in the law that have become apparent. Courts can be a daunting place for victims of domestic and family violence. The processes can be overwhelming. Domestic violence is a complex crime like no other because of the intimate relationships between perpetrators and victims. Those close personal connections intertwine complainants and defendants in ways that maintain a callous grip on victims. This grip can silence reports of abuse, delay reports when victims are brave enough to come forward, and intimidate victims to discontinue cooperating with prosecutions. -
Strange-Culture-The-Country-Labor
CHARLES STURT UNIVERSITY REGIONAL ARCHIVES Strange Culture The Country Labor Party in the Riverina Liam Lander February 2014 It has been a widely held view for some time that the Australian Labor Party has a long and rich history in the Riverina. To reinforce this view and to provide context for the Labor Party’s place and importance in the region, local historians and party members frequently cite several uncontested historical facts. They draw our attention to the significance of the Wagga Wagga branch of the Australian Shearers Union (ASU) in the early labour movement, when in 1886 it was instrumental in campaigning for the eight hour working day. The ASU later amalgamated with several regional unions to form the Australian Workers Union in 1905, eventually evolving into the Australian Workers Union as it exists today. They also point out that the Wagga Wagga branch of the Australian Labor Party has had a sustained presence in the community since 1891. Perhaps most significantly, they cite the success of one of Wagga Wagga’s most highly regarded former state politicians, Edgar ‘Eddie’ Graham, member for Wagga Wagga from May 1941 to November 1957, and a member of the Australian Labor Party. While these facts present the illusion of a strong tradition of Labor Party prosperity in the Riverina, the reality is that the local political landscape is far more conservative. Nevertheless the Wagga Wagga branch of the Australian Labor party, known today as the Country Labor Party, continues to meet more regularly than any other political party in the region, and always emerges at election time to present and support a local candidate. -

New South Wales State Election 2019: a Quick Guide
RESEARCH PAPER SERIES, 2018–19 19 JUNE 2019 New South Wales state election 2019: a quick guide Dr Michael Sloane Politics and Public Administration Section Introduction This Quick Guide provides a brief overview of the 2019 New South Wales Legislative Assembly and Legislative Council election results and the new ministry appointed after the election. It also includes background information on the electoral system in New South Wales, a summary of the 2015 election results, and details of by-elections and changes in party leadership during the 56th Parliament. New South Wales has a bicameral parliament comprising a 93-member lower house, the Legislative Assembly, and a 42-member upper house, the Legislative Council. Members of the Legislative Assembly are elected under an optional preferential voting system to represent single- member electorates for four-year terms, while members of the Legislative Council are elected under an optional preferential proportional voting system to represent the state as a whole for eight-year terms, with only half of the Council’s members facing election in each four-year electoral cycle. The NSW Legislative Assembly has fixed four-year maximum terms: sections 24 and 24A of the Constitution Act 1902 (NSW) (Constitution Act) provide that: • unless dissolved earlier, each Legislative Assembly expires on the Friday before the first Saturday in March four calendar years after the year in which it was elected; and • an election is to be held on the fourth Saturday in March following such an expiry. In accordance with these provisions the 56th Parliament ended with the expiration of the Legislative Assembly on Friday 1 March 2019.
