  • Cane Toads, Notices of Motion and the Law of Unintended Consequences Steven Reynolds, Deputy Clerk, NSW Legislative Council1
    Cane Toads, Notices of Motion and the Law of Unintended Consequences Steven Reynolds, Deputy Clerk, NSW Legislative Council1 The New South Wales Legislative Council is the oldest Parliament in Australia, and a legislature which has operated very effectively as a House of Review through use of its various parliamentary processes, including the power to order documents from Executive Government, established in a series of successful court challenges during the 1990s. Legislation is given careful scrutiny and frequently amended. It has a highly active committee system which deals with many politically sensitive inquiries and contributes significantly to public policy developments in the state. With many experienced and highly capable members and a dedicated and professional parliamentary staff, it is a highly functioning and effective chamber. However, as this paper demonstrates, this is no guarantee against the Law of Unintended Consequences when it comes to introducing reforms to procedures: well meaning and constructive change can still have some at times absurd results. The Cane Toad Invasion In Australia we have many types of frogs and toads. Most are considered innocuous, benign, and an essential part of the ecosystem. Not so the Cane Toad.2 This very ugly creature is native to Central and South America. It is notable for three things: it has poisonous glands, toxic to most animals; it has a voracious appetite; and it is gifted with a spectacular ability to breed, laying thousands of eggs at a time. It is a feral animal in Australia, which has moved from its original introduced habitat in the northern cane fields of Australia to cover large swathes of the continent.

  • Madonna Blythus | a Team | Rio 2016
    28/07/2016 Madonna Blyth | AUS Team | Rio 2016 O籎cial Home of the 2016 Australian Olympic Team Madonna Blyth Athlete Biography Madonna Blyth burst onto the hockey scene when she was 15, winning gold at the 2001 Australian Youth Olympic Festival. The Queenslander debuted with the Hockeyroos in 2004, won a gold medal with the squad at the 2006 Commonwealth Games in Melbourne and made her Olympic debut at the 2008 Beijing Games, where Australia placed ๯fth. The Hockeyroos’ captain since 2009, Blyth overtook Nikki Hudson’s all-time record of 303 appearances for the team at the 2015 World League Semi Finals in Belgium. Blyth is now known as Australia’s most capped female hockey player, approaching 350 caps. The mid๯elder captained the squad at her second Olympics in London. Having only lost one game (by one goal) and only conceding two goals for the entire tournament (both from penalty corners), the Hockeyroos missed out on the medal rounds on a goal dierence of one goal and ๯nished in ๯fth. The three-time Commonwealth Games gold medalist has been a permanent ๯xture in the side for over a decade. Having also competed at three World Cups, it is only ๯tting for the skipper to contend her third Olympics in Rio. Rated as one of the best players of her generation, the Brisbane-born athlete has been named in the World All Stars team on three occasions (2007, 2009 and 2010) and was crowned the Hockeyroos Player of the Year in 2013.
