Much later, the mace became of ceremonial rather than practical significance and organisations such as civic corporations and universities adopted the mace as a symbol of the rule of legal authority. The University’s mace is displayed at meetings of the University Council and on such ceremonial occasions as conferring ceremonies. The bearer of the mace, in academic processions, ‘guards’ the Chancellor. Deakin’s mace was presented to the University by Mr Donald Thomson, Sir Wilfred Brookes and Mr Norman Stephen (Alcoa Australia).

The offer was unconstitutional because on 10 July 1899, the Premier made it in response to a request from the Commandant and senior officers of the Queensland Defence Force that ‘in the event of war breaking out in South Africa the Colony of Queensland could send a contingent of troops and a machine gun’. War was not declared until 10 October 1899. Under Westminster government conventions, the Commandant’s request for military intervention in an overseas war should have been discussed by the elected legislators in the House. However, Parliament had gone into recess on 24 June following the Federation debate. During the critical 10-week period, the politicians were in their electorates preparing for the Federation Referendum on 2 September 1899, after which Parliament would resume.

    Fact Sheet 2 THE FIRST COMMONWEALTH PARLIAMENT 1901 FEDERATION AND ’S VOTE THE PEOPLE Overview 1897-1903 Once the Australian Constitution had been accepted by voters in the Australian colonies and enacted as law by British Parliament, the process of putting the new system of federal government into practice began. The Australian colonies were now States of the Commonwealth of Australia, and the office of Governor- General represented the reigning monarch of Britain as Head of the Commonwealth. The first Governor-General of Australia, Lord Hopetoun, proclaimed the Commonwealth of Australia at a special ceremony in Centennial Park, Sydney, 1 January 1901. It was also the Governor-General’s task to commission an interim or caretaker ministry until the Australian people were able to elect their representatives to the newly created Commonwealth Parliament. These interim ministers, with Edmund Barton as Prime Minister, were sworn in as part of the inaugural ceremony at Centennial Park.

Marquess of Linlithgow Hopetoun House South Queensferry Lothian Scotland EH30 9SL National Library of Australia State Library of New South Wales Filmed: 1973, 1980, 1983 BIOGRAPHICAL NOTE John Adrian Louis Hope (1860-1908), 7th Earl of Hopetoun (succeeded 1873), 1st Marquess of Linlithgow (created 1902), was born at Hopetoun House, near Edinburgh. He was educated at Eton and the Royal Military College, Sandhurst, but did not enter the Army. In 1883 he was appointed Conservative whip in the House of Lords and in 1885 was made a lord-in-waiting to Queen Victoria. In 1886 he married Hersey Moleyns, the daughter of Lord Ventry. In 1889 Lord Knutsford, the Secretary of State for the Colonies, appointed Hopetoun as Governor of Victoria and he held the post until March 1895. Although it was a time of economic depression, he entertained extravagantly, but his youthful enthusiasm and fondness for horseback tours of country districts won him considerable popularity. His term coincided with the first federation conferences and he supported the federation movement strongly. In 1895-98 Hopetoun was paymaster-general in the government of Lord Salisbury. In 1898 Joseph Chamberlain, the Secretary of State for the Colonies, offered him the post of Governor-General of Canada, but he declined. He was appointed Lord Chamberlain in 1898 and had a close association with members of the Royal Family. In July 1900 Hopetoun was appointed the first Governor-General of the Commonwealth of Australia. He arrived in Sydney on 15 December 1900 and his first task was to appoint the head of the new Commonwealth ministry.

Abstract The anti-socialist campaign was a key moment in Australian history that established the ideological discourse of Australian politics. This thesis will provide the first stand-alone narrative and analytical account of the campaign. It will examine the role the campaign played in the evolution of Australian politics from policy based groupings to permanent ideological parties. It will also analyse the ideological legacy of the campaign for Australian liberalism, as well as looking at the way that the campaign contributed to the development of an Australian national media.

Introduction When Australia held its first federal election in 1901, three parties emerged to become the main antagonists of the new parliament. These parties were the Protectionist Party, the Free-Trade Party and the smaller but substantial Labor Party. Apart from Labor, the parties of the first parliament were not formed around a universal ideology, but around an attitude towards a single issue.

    The Hon. Sco Morrison MP Prime Minister of Australia Parliament House Canberra ACT 2600 2 November, 2020 Dear Prim

    The Hon. Sco Morrison MP Prime Minister of Australia Parliament House Canberra ACT 2600 2 November, 2020 Dear Prime Minister, We write to express our professional concern about the ramifications of the failure of the Hon Angus Taylor MP to fulfil his responsibilities of the office of the Minister for Emissions Reduction. We are health and medical professionals, organisations and supporters bearing witness to the harm Mr Taylor’s failure to reduce emissions is causing to the health of Australians. We are also united by our concern about the climate crisis and the impact it is having on the safety and wellbeing of Australians and our neighbours. Public health is inextricably linked to climate health. Climate damage is here now — and it is killing people. In failing in his responsibilities to reduce emissions, Mr Taylor is contributing towards rather than reducing the harm the following is now causing: There is already a noticeable impact from increased frequency and intensity of bushfires, floods, dust storms, drought and extreme heat, biodiversity decline, and over-allocation, reduced quality and increased salinisation of freshwater in Australia . i As a result, Australians are already seeing higher rates of respiratory illness, ii diarrhoea iii and morbidity requiring hospital admission iv during hot days, and higher rates of suicide in rural areas during drought years. The burning of fossil fuels such as coal and gas that drives global warming is also a major contributor to air pollution - this silent killer is linked to the premature deaths of 3,000 Australians each year. Higher levels of air pollution are also associated with 1 / increasing illness and death related to ischaemic heart disease, chronic obstructive airways disease, lung cancer and asthma, v, vi and also with adverse outcomes in pregnancy, including low birthweight and stillbirth.

    A Reflection on Public Law: from Federation to the Twenty-First Century

    The Hon Justice M J Beazley AO Government Solicitors Conference 3 September 2013, Sydney A reflection on public law: From Federation to the Twenty-first century 1 When the Commonwealth of Australia came into being on 1 January 1901, its first law officer was Alfred Deakin who held the portfolio of Attorney General from Federation until 24 September 1903, when he became Prime Minister. As Attorney General, Deakin was succeeded by James Drake and then Sir Isaacs Isaacs. 2 Deakin might be thought to have been a humble man. He was the only Prime Minister to reject the title “Right Honourable”, to refuse honorary degrees from Oxford and Cambridge Universities and reject membership of the Privy Council. He was otherwise known as “Affable Alfred”. 3 However, it is his period as Attorney General and, more particularly, the advices he and his immediate successor gave to the Government of the day that I want to talk to you about today. You may ask, why? And understandably so. My purpose in doing so stems largely from an interest in history, so to that extent, I am being a little self-indulgent. But I also thought it would be interesting to consider the issues that arose in the first years of the Australian Federation and to briefly contrast them with the issues that have arisen in the first few years of the twenty first century. 4 I have chosen to do so for three reasons. (1) First, I consider that the last decade and a half has seen Constitutional and public law issues come to the forefront of Australian jurisprudence.

    5/15/2018 Attorneys­General ­ Oxford Reference Oxford Reference The Oxford Companion to the High Court of Australia Edited by Michael Coper, Tony Blackshield, and George Williams Publisher: Oxford University Press Print Publication Date: 2001 Print ISBN­13: 9780195540222 Published online: 2007 Current Online Version: 2007 eISBN: 9780191735189 Attorneys­General. The first Commonwealth Attorney­General was Alfred Deakin, who held office from 1901 to 1903. Since then, the role of Attorney­General has greatly widened and has become more akin to that of a Minister of Justice. The Attorney­ General has, however, always had the important responsibility of recommending the appointment of High Court Justices. Because of the demands of the Parliament, the Attorney­General's Department and the electorate, Attorneys­ General have made few appearances in person before the Court (apart from ceremonial occasions), even where they have themselves previously been notable counsel. They have made an impact on the Court, however, not only through their role in appointments, but also as sponsors of legislation defining the Court's jurisdiction and as protagonists in disputes coming before or involving the Court. Of the 30 Attorneys­General since federation, a number have gained particular attention in their dealings with the Court. Deakin was instrumental in the establishment of the Court. Among other things, he pioneered the Judiciary Act 1903 ਀਀﷿ ﷿ ﳿCth) and the High Court Procedure Act 1903 (Cth) required to establish the Court (but see Cሀ﷿﷿ሀ਀) C); advocated relatively generous remuneration for the Justices; supported the circuit system; and secured the appointment of its foundation Justices, Griffith, Barton and O'Connor.
