Swearing in of the Hon Justice Catherine Holmes As a Judge of Appeal Banco Court Friday 26 May 2006, 2:15Pm
Swearing in of the Hon Justice Catherine Holmes as a Judge of Appeal Banco Court Friday 26 May 2006, 2:15pm The Hon P de Jersey AC, Chief Justice I am very pleased to congratulate Justice Holmes upon her appointment yesterday as a Judge of Appeal. I welcome her to that important role. I speak for all the members of the court, including those who cannot be present at this ceremony, of which unfortunately very little public notice could be given. My preference for a ceremony on Monday was rendered impracticable because the President and members of the Court of Appeal will be sitting then in Townsville. Hence a number of regrettable absences from the bench this afternoon: Justice Moynihan is interstate, Justice Byrne is sitting in Maryborough, Justice White is travelling interstate, and the Central, Northern and Far Northern Judges are sitting in their respective jurisdictions. Justice Douglas is travelling to Cairns where he is to speak at a conference. But as I say, all Judges would wish to be associated with the observations I will be making this afternoon. I note with pleasure the presence of the Attorney-General, who has left a busy session of the House, and the Director-General, and Judges from other courts, including the District Court, the Federal Court and the Family Court, and members of Tribunals. I also welcome retired Judges. (The Chief Judge is overseas, and the acting Chief Judge is interstate.) I must say it was a matter of very pleasant coincidence for me to be presiding yesterday, as Deputy-Governor, at the meeting of Executive Council which actually made this appointment.

The most life changing challenges to which women and men have risen since early 2020 have been thrust upon them and their community. Societally, we are at a liminal stage, where continuity with the past may be broken and outcomes for the future challenged. In this context, #ChooseToChallenge, the theme for International Women’s Day 2021, is very appropriate. We may not have had a choice in participating in the significant changes brought to our work and home environments by COVID-19, but we can decide to influence the future changes which result from the experience.
