The Parliamentary Speaker and tradition The tradition of Speakership in the Westminster parliamentary system is a long and enduring one, commencing with the appointment of the first British Speaker, Sir Thomas Hungerford, who was appointed in 1377. From these earliest times, the Speaker has been the mouthpiece or representative of the House, speaking on behalf of the House in communicating its deliberations and decisions, to the monarchy, the Executive and also others. The Speaker represents, in a very real sense, the right of freedom of speech in the Parliament, which was hard won from a monarchical Executive centuries ago. The Parliament must constantly be prepared to maintain its right of…freedom of speech, without fear or favour.1 Amongst the numerous powers, responsibilities and functions vested in Speakers via the constitution, standing orders and conventions, and in addition to being the spokesperson of the House, the main functions of the Speaker are to preside over the debates of the

  • Ap2 Final 16.2.17
    PALASZCZUK’S SECOND YEAR AN OVERVIEW OF 2016 ANN SCOTT HOWARD GUILLE ROGER SCOTT with cartoons by SEAN LEAHY Foreword This publication1 is the fifth in a series of Queensland political chronicles published by the TJRyan Foundation since 2012. The first two focussed on Parliament.2 They were written after the Liberal National Party had won a landslide victory and the Australian Labor Party was left with a tiny minority, led by Annastacia Palaszczuk. The third, Queensland 2014: Political Battleground,3 published in January 2015, was completed shortly before the LNP lost office in January 2015. In it we used military metaphors and the language which typified the final year of the Newman Government. The fourth, Palaszczuk’s First Year: a Political Juggling Act,4 covered the first year of the ALP minority government. The book had a cartoon by Sean Leahy on its cover which used circus metaphors to portray 2015 as a year of political balancing acts. It focussed on a single year, starting with the accession to power of the Palaszczuk Government in mid-February 2015. Given the parochial focus of our books we draw on a limited range of sources. The TJRyan Foundation website provides a repository for online sources including our own Research Reports on a range of Queensland policy areas, and papers catalogued by policy topic, as well as Queensland political history.5 A number of these reports give the historical background to the current study, particularly the anthology of contributions The Newman Years: Rise, Decline and Fall.6 Electronic links have been provided to open online sources, notably the ABC News, Brisbane Times, The Guardian, and The Conversation.

    1 - Background 1.1 Overview The Queensland Independent Remuneration Tribunal (the Tribunal) is an independent statutory authority established by the Queensland Independent Remuneration Tribunal Act 2013 (the Act) to determine remuneration in connection with Members of the Queensland Parliament (MPs) and former MPs. The definition of ‘remuneration’ includes the additional salary and associated allowances payable to an MP for performing roles as an office holder in addition to that of an MP in the Queensland Legislative Assembly. Section 42 of the Act provides a list of offices for which MPs may be entitled to be paid a salary in addition to the base salary of a backbench MP (an additional salary). The Act also provides that if another office is approved by resolution of the Legislative Assembly then that office may attract an additional salary. Note that only one salary (being the highest salary) is payable in the case of an MP holding multiple offices. 1.2 Previous consideration of additional salary Additional salaries provided to office holders were considered by the Tribunal in Determination 3/2014 after a detailed examination of the nature of each of the roles.1 The Determination set the additional salary payable to each office holder relative to the additional salary payable to the highest office being the Office of the Premier. These relativities between additional salaries are outlined in the following table: Relativity Band Office between offices % 1 Premier 100.0 2 Deputy Premier 80.0 Minister 3 70.0 Leader of the Opposition 1 Queensland Independent Remuneration Tribunal, Building a new remuneration structure for Members of the Queensland Parliament – Part two, Determination 3/2014 (27 March 2014), 69-70 <http://www.remunerationtribunal.qld.gov.au/assets/determination-03-14.pdf>.

  • Queensland January to June, 2009
    Political Chronicles 603 Queensland January to June, 2009 PAUL D. WILLIAMS School of Humanities, Griffith University Overview The first half of 2009 saw some of the most remarkable developments in recent Queensland political history. A state election that recorded a number of firsts — including the unexpectedly easy return of the first woman premier in Australia — coupled with a declining economy, a tough state budget, the proposed sale of 604 Political Chronicles government-owned corporations, and the rapid surge in support for a troubled opposition despite its convincing defeat just weeks before. If nothing else, this period underscored the vagaries of state politics. January The Liberal-National Party (LNP) opposition, emboldened by its successful amalgamation in mid 2008, came out swinging at year's beginning. Opposition leader Lawrence Springborg kicked off his unofficial election campaign in early January with a curious policy launch at an Ipswich motor cycle store. But conservative forces were soon distracted when Nationals Senator Barnaby Joyce sounded out pre-selection possibilities for the lower house seat of Dawson and, later, a Northern New South Wales district. Joyce soon abandoned the plan for want of support. Premier Anna Bligh was forced into her own backflip when she scuttled a move to allow drivers to claim the 8.3 cent per litre petrol subsidy directly from service stations. The Premier soon backflipped again, this time over plans to axe unprofitable Queensland Rail rural freight lines. Meanwhile, the Queensland economy appeared to stall, with 1,300 jobs lost in just two months (Courier Mail, 15 January 2009). The year's first community cabinet, in Townsville, thus doubled as a jobs summit.

  • 09 / 2020 Hon Deb Frecklington MP Leader of the Opposition Reception
    8/ 09 / 2020 Hon Deb Frecklington MP Leader of the Opposition [email protected] Dear Mrs Frecklington Queensland infrastructure delivery – 2020 to 2024 It is encouraging to see the commitment that your party has given to infrastructure delivery to help Queensland emerge from the COVID‐19 induced recession that we are currently experiencing. Good infrastructure design, delivery and operation will deliver great outcomes for Queensland’s growth into the future. However, Australia’s construction industry is not in good health. It has not substantially improved its productivity in decades and can waste up to 23 per cent of its efforts 1 2. Construction has largely continued to rely on traditional methods for many projects3. Taking Queensland Construction turnover for FY20, ($38.9B4) there exists an opportunity to save up to $9.1B by utilising integrated lean digital delivery methods for project delivery or to put that in perspective, 1 cross river rail and 2 new hospitals every year. It is clear, that there are better ways of working which deliver better project outcomes particularly for the infrastructure that Queensland needs. Evidence suggests, that through the adoption of lean construction practices and digital engineering, considerable cost and time savings5 can be achieved when compared against traditional delivery methodologies, allowing more to be built for less in a shorter time and with higher quality and safety. For this to happen, the Queensland Government needs to adopt more collaborative procurement / delivery frameworks that align the interests of all stakeholders to leverage the economic and social outcomes that come from infrastructure investment.
