  • Judges and Retirement Ages
    JUDGES AND RETIREMENT AGES ALYSIA B LACKHAM* All Commonwealth, state and territory judges in Australia are subject to mandatory retirement ages. While the 1977 referendum, which introduced judicial retirement ages for the Australian federal judiciary, commanded broad public support, this article argues that the aims of judicial retirement ages are no longer valid in a modern society. Judicial retirement ages may be causing undue expense to the public purse and depriving the judiciary of skilled adjudicators. They are also contrary to contemporary notions of age equality. Therefore, demographic change warrants a reconsideration of s 72 of the Constitution and other statutes setting judicial retirement ages. This article sets out three alternatives to the current system of judicial retirement ages. It concludes that the best option is to remove age-based limitations on judicial tenure.

  • How Does the Division of Power Between the Board and the General Meeting Operate?
    Elizabeth Boros* hOW DOES ThE DIVISION OF POWER BETWEEN ThE BOARD AND ThE gENERAL MEETINg OPERATE? ABsTract Constitutional provisions generally vest management power in the board of directors and courts have interpreted these provisions as establishing board primacy in managing the company. In John Shaw & Sons (Salford) Ltd v Shaw, the English Court of Appeal stated that shareholders unhappy with the way that the board is exercising its management power should either change the allocation of power in the company’s constitution or replace the directors. This article explores the feasibility of these two options, comparing the law in Australia and the United Kingdom. It finds that there are a number of legal obstacles to reallocating constitutional power, unless all that is desired is to give the general meeting a veto power. In contrast, the power to replace the board or some of the directors is more straightforward, but requires sufficient voting power and the will to use it, either directly or indirectly. I InTroduction he division of power between the board of directors and the general meeting of members has been relatively settled in Anglo-Australian law since the decision of Lord Clauson in Scott v Scott1 in 1943. This case considered the T 2 interpretation of the then default constitutional provision regarding management of a company, which gave management power to the board of directors, subject to regulations passed by the general meeting. The Court read down the general meeting’s power to interfere with board decisions by regulation and held that board power in this situation is paramount.

For obvious reasons it would be invidious for me to record my impressions of the Court from that time onwards. The article reviews the work of the Court and endeavours to convey a picture of the contribution and personality of some of the individual Justices. The article concludes with the statement that the Court has achieved the high objectives of which Alfred Deakin spoke in his second reading speech on the introduction of the Judiciary Act 1903 (Cth). The Court has established its reputation as one of the world’s leading courts of final appeal and has fulfilled its role alongside the Parliament and the executive in our constitutional framework.] CONTENTS I Introduction.............................................................................................................864 II In the Beginning......................................................................................................865 III The Early High Court..............................................................................................866 IV Conflict with the Executive ....................................................................................867 V Conflict with the Privy Council ..............................................................................868

  • Australian Bar Review Ten Years in the High Court
    AUSTRALIAN BAR REVIEW TEN YEARS IN THE HIGH COURT - CONTINUITY & CHANGE* The Hon Justice Michael Kirby AC CMG** WHAT IS IT REALLY LIKE? It is almost ten years since my appointment as a Justice of the High Court of Australia. Not long after I had first taken my seat, I addressed a constitutional law class at the University of Sydney. My lecture was titled "What Is It Really Like to be a Justice of the High Court of Australia?". The lecture was later published1. Now, from the advantage of a decade's service, I will describe the changes I have witnessed. A barrister who keeps abreast of the case law necessarily enters the minds of the Justices of the High Court and lives, in a sense, with their values, attitudes and habits of reasoning. Inevitably, not a few speculate on what it would be like to live and work in the great * Text of a talk given to the Bar Readers course, NSW Bar Association, Sydney, 17 October 2005. ** Justice of the High Court of Australia. 1 (1997) 19 Sydney Law Review 514. 2. courthouse in Canberra, by Lake Burley Griffin. There is nothing wrong with aspiration. Some, more ambitious, imagine themselves, decades hence, occupying one of the chambers on the ninth level of that building. However, the numbers called are very few2. In the history of the Court, I was but the fortieth Justice. When Justice McHugh leaves the Court on 31 October 2005, Justice Susan Crennan, the forty-fifth Justice will be sworn3. Forty-five is not many in little more than a century.
