  • Hon. Cameron Dick
    Speech by Hon. Cameron Dick MEMBER FOR GREENSLOPES Hansard Wednesday, 22 April 2009 MAIDEN SPEECH Hon. CR DICK (Greenslopes—ALP) (Attorney-General and Minister for Industrial Relations) (7.30 pm): I start tonight by acknowledging the traditional owners of the land where this parliament stands who have served and nurtured this land for centuries. I pay tribute to them and their great role in our history. It is in this reflection of history that I begin tonight. In December 1862, three short years after the birth of our great state, whose 150th anniversary we celebrate this year, the sailing ship Conway arrived in the small Queensland settlement then known as Moreton Bay. History little records the fate of the Conway, its passengers and its crew, but one thing is known about that day in December 1862: that is the day my family arrived in Queensland and began its Queensland journey. Almost 150 years later, that journey has taken me to this place, the Queensland parliament. I stand tonight as a representative of the people in our state’s legislature, not only as a fifth-generation Queenslander but also with great humility and honour as a son of the state seat of Greenslopes, the electorate I now serve as a member of parliament. My first thanks this evening go to those people who make up the community of Greenslopes. It is a wonderful and diverse community and I look forward to serving them to the best of my ability. This electorate is very dear to my heart. It was at Holland Park, in the Greenslopes electorate, that I was raised as a boy.

  • 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.

  • QUEENSLAND January to June 2001
    552 Political Chronicles QUEENSLAND January to June 2001 JOHN WANNA and TRACEY ARKLAY School of Politics and Public Policy, Griffith University Playing Smart Politics with a Divided Opposition On 23 January, after embarking on a three week "listening tour" around the state's shopping centres, jumping on public transport and swimming with sharks, the Premier Peter Beattie called an early election for 17 February 2001 — with six months of his first term remaining. The campaign ran for 26 days, the shortest permissible under the Electoral Act. The catalyst for the snap poll was the damage to Beattie's government caused by the "electoral rorts" scandal involving mainly the powerful Australian Workers' Union faction. While the initial allegations of electoral fraud had involved pre-selection battles in two Townsville seats, the repercussions were much wider engulfing the entire party and bringing down the Deputy Premier Jim Elder and two backbenchers, Grant Musgrove and Mike Kaiser. However, Beattie's political opponents were divided and Labor benefitted from a four-way split among the conservative side of politics and some other conservative independents. From the outset of the campaign, Beattie attempted to present his team as "clean" and free of rorters. He argued that the evidence to the Shepherdson inquiry (see previous Queensland Political Chronicle) demonstrated that the rorters were "just a tiny cell of people acting alone, and they have resigned or been expelled, and I don't believe anyone else is involved" (Courier-Mail, 17 January 2001). As the campaign commenced, it became clear that Labor's campaign was not just organised around the Premier; Beattie was Labor's campaign.

    CR Tabs_Main:Layout 1 14/5/09 3:15 PM Page 16 Community 16 16 Community BMA is undertaking an extensive program of community consultation and stakeholder engagement, relating to the Caval Ridge Project. BMA’s community engagement process aims to: Identify community issues or concerns. Ensure BMA is responsive in mitigating against issues. Proactively work with stakeholders. Continue the long term relationship between BMA and the Bowen Basin community. The Caval Ridge Project community engagement process also considers the cumulative impacts of BMA’s operations, helping the community to understand the project specifically, as well as BMA’s broader growth plans. The community consultation process to date has engaged stakeholders at both a local and regional level, and provided project-specific information as well as information on the potential social, economic and environmental impacts, relating to the project. A regular program of consultation activities has helped ensure the community, employees and other stakeholders have had a number of opportunities to provide input and offer feedback. Key consultation activities included one-to-one discussions, information displays, hard copy and online information publications (such as fact sheets and newsletters), and consultation with service providers. Feedback from community engagement has informed mine planning and technical studies associated with the EIS, as well as BMA’s ongoing communication activities relating to its growth plans. To date, feedback from the community has highlighted concerns relating to noise and dust, housing and social services provision. 16.1 Consultation Objectives The objectives of the community engagement process are to: Initiate and maintain open communication with the community on all aspects of the project and the EIS.

Rhodes 13 14 and Wanna’sFor (2009) review Peer of the literature Review found little research on Only Australian executive politics; it 15 16 1 17 was ‘almost devoid of theory, even controversies’. Other characteristics include: the 18 19 predominance of realpolitik in accounts of executive power and a tendency to emphasise ‘practice 20 21 over theory, commentary over fieldwork, and teaching over research’ (Rhodes and Wanna 2009, 22 23 129-30). Weller (2005, 37) concurs, noting the academic literature provides ‘slim pickings for a 24 25 reader who wants to know how the executive system of government works in Australia’. The 26 27 28 challenge for Australian political scientists, therefore, is to provide theoretically informed studies of 29 2 30 the political executive based on original fieldwork. Strangio, ‘tHart and Walter (2013) also call for 31 32 a greater focus on the political executive.

  • Peter Lawlor, MP, and the Queensland Government TABLE of CONTENTS Lt1troductlon
    Statement of Peter Joseph Lawlor I, Peter Joseph Lawlor of care of Gall Standfield & Smith, Solicitors, PO Box 259 Southport in the State of Queensland do solemnly and sincerely declare that: 1. I was the Member for Southport in the Queensland Parliament for the period between 2001 and 2012. 2. I was admitted to practice as a solicitor in Queensland in 1981 and practised as such until I was elected to Parliament in 2001. 3. I was the Minister for Tourism and Fair Trading between 26 March 2009 and 20 February 2011. In this role I had responsibility for racing in Queensland. The relevant government unit responsible for racing during this time was the Office of Racing within the Department of Employment, Economic Development and Innovation. 4. I have had a long interest in thoroughbred racing. I was a committee member of the Gold Coast Turf Club (GCTC) for 15 years prior to 2002 when I resigned my position after having been elected to the Queensland Parliament. Prior to my resignation, I was the Deputy Chairman of the GCTC. I was also a member of the Racing Appeal Authority from about 1994 until I entered parliament in 2001. 5. I did not consider that it was my role as Minister to be actively involved in the management of any code of racing in Queensland. My understanding of the recent history of racing in Queensland is that the industry itself had sought independence from government. This was required for membership of the Australian Racing Board, which was necessary to play any role in the development of the Australian Rules of Racing and related regulatory matters.
