  • How Australia Got a VAT (C) Tax Analysts 2011
    How Australia Got a VAT (C) Tax Analysts 2011. All rights reserved. does not claim copyright in any public domain or third party content. By Susan C. Morse Susan C. Morse is an associate professor at the University of California Hastings College of the Law. This project was supported by a Hackworth Grant from the Markkula Center for Applied Ethics at Santa Clara University. Many thanks to Neil Warren and Richard Eccleston for helpful discussion and review; to participants in the April 2010 Northern California Tax Roundtable and to Chris Evans, Kathryn James, Rick Krever, and Dale Pinto for useful comments and references; and to Erin Phillips and Gadi Zohar for able research assistance. Australians, like Canadians and New Zealanders, call their VAT a goods and services tax, or GST, but their GST fits the VAT mold: it is a credit-invoice method, destination-based consump- tion tax with fairly limited tax base exclusions.1 Although all OECD countries aside from the United States have value-added taxes, external pressures like those resulting from preconditions for European Union membership2 or for financial support from organizations such as the World Bank or International Monetary Fund3 have played a role in many countries’ VAT enactment 1See Liam Ebrill, Michael Keen, Jean-Paul Bodin & Victoria Summers, The Modern VAT 2 (2001) (defining a VAT). This paper uses the term tax base ‘‘exclusion’’ to mean ‘‘a situation in which the rate of tax applied to sales is zero, though credit is still given for taxes paid on inputs’’ which is called ‘‘GST-free’’ in Australia and ‘‘zero-rated’’ elsewhere.

  • Polio Australia Incorporated Representing Polio Survivors Throughout Australia
    Polio Australia Incorporated Representing polio survivors throughout Australia www.polioaustralia.org.au Reflections October 2013 Once again, October’s Polio Awareness Month has come and gone and, as always, the publicity surrounding it has resulted in numerous polio survivors contacting Polio Australia seeking information about their symptoms and the late effects of polio. It’s always interesting when speaking with others, how many know someone who had polio, yet how ‘invisible’ they are in the community. Of course, this has been a necessary survival tactic used by many since they ‘recovered’ from both the virus and the often traumatic rehabilitation. Being ‘normal’ and just ‘getting on with it’ were very effective tools for achieving success in a world where any form of weakness and/or disability was often judged negatively. Thankfully, this attitude is slowly changing for the better. However, we can often be our own worst enemy by continuing to battle on and not asking for support. After all, what can be done about it anyway? Sound familiar? Well, the more we ‘come out‘ and make our voices heard and presence felt, the more forthcoming the appropriate support will be. Let’s all work on revealing ourselves within our respective communities, and encouraging our still ‘hidden’ brethren to sign up to the Australian Polio Register to increase the numbers of polio survivors we KNOW are out there! “Refusing to ask for help when you need it is refusing someone the chance to be helpful.” ~ Ric Ocasek In this e-Bulletin Ramifications of Polio Increase The ‘Then and Now’ of Life With Polio Special Purpose Post Polio Fund NDIS Prices Services ‘much too low’ Vale Janet Powell AM Disability Reform The Polio Day Cookbook Polio This Week It’s Not About The Polio Polio Around the World Newcastle Doctor Examining Ramifications of Polio Increase Source: ABC News - 4 November 2013 A Newcastle public health professor says Australia is in a good position to thwart possible importations of the deadly polio disease as it resurges overseas.

  • Australian Democrats.[1]
    CHIPP, Donald Leslie (1925–2006)Senator, Victoria, 1978–86 (Austral... http://biography.senate.gov.au/chipp-donald-leslie/ http://biography.senate.gov.au/chipp-donald-leslie/ Don Chipp's Senate career almost never happened. Dropped from Malcolm Fraser's Liberal Party ministry in December 1975, he turned this career blow into an opportunity to fight for the causes in which he believed. The result of Chipp's personal and political upheaval was the creation of a third force in Australian politics, the Australian Democrats.[1] Donald Leslie Chipp was born in Melbourne on 21 August 1925, the first child of Leslie Travancore Chipp and his wife Jessie Sarah, née McLeod. Don's father Les was a fitter and turner who later became a foreman. With Les in regular employment during the 1930s, the Chipp family was cushioned from some of the harsher aspects of the Depression years. However, the economic downturn must have had some impact, because Don remembered his father saying to his four boys that 'When you all grow up, I want you to be wearing white collars. White collars, that's what you should aim at'. Chipp matriculated from Northcote High School at the age of fifteen, then worked as a clerk for the State Electricity Commission (SEC). He also began studying part-time for a Bachelor of Commerce at the University of Melbourne. In 1943, at age eighteen, he joined the Royal Australian Air Force, and spent much of the last two years of the Second World War undergoing pilot training within Australia. Discharged as a Leading Aircraftman in September 1945, Chipp took advantage of the Commonwealth Reconstruction Training Scheme which provided ex-service personnel with subsidised tuition and living allowances.

  • Australian Electoral Systems
    Parliament of Australia Department of Parliamentary Services Parliamentary Library Information, analysis and advice for the Parliament RESEARCH PAPER www.aph.gov.au/library 21 August 2007, no. 5, 2007–08, ISSN 1834-9854 Australian electoral systems Scott Bennett and Rob Lundie Politics and Public Administration Section Executive summary The Australian electorate has experienced three types of voting system—First Past the Post, Preferential Voting and Proportional Representation (Single Transferable Vote). First Past the Post was used for the first Australian parliamentary elections held in 1843 for the New South Wales Legislative Council and for most colonial elections during the second half of the nineteenth century. Since then there have been alterations to the various electoral systems in use around the country. These alterations have been motivated by three factors: a desire to find the ‘perfect’ system, to gain political advantage, or by the need to deal with faulty electoral system arrangements. Today, two variants of Preferential Voting and two variants of Proportional Representation are used for all Australian parliamentary elections. This paper has two primary concerns: firstly, explaining in detail the way each operates, the nature of the ballot paper and how the votes are counted; and secondly, the political consequences of the use of each system. Appendix 1 gives examples of other Australian models used over the years and Appendix 2 lists those currently in use in Commonwealth elections as well as in the states and territories. y Under ‘Full’ Preferential Voting each candidate must be given a preference by the voter. This system favours the major parties; can sometimes award an election to the party that wins fewer votes than its major opponent; usually awards the party with the largest number of votes a disproportionate number of seats; and occasionally gives benefits to the parties that manufacture a ‘three-cornered contest’ in a particular seat.

  • The Australian Democrats Andrew Bartlett*
    Australian Cultural History Vol. 27, No.2, October 2009, 187-193 The Australian Democrats Andrew Bartlett* The Australian Democrats had maintained a presence in the Senate since 1977, but the 2007 election threatened to end their representation for good. Their efforts to retain seats proved to be in vain. Keywords: 2007 election; Australian Democrats; Senate Following on from the 2004 election, where the Australian Democrats lost four seats (including the Democrat seat Meg Lees had taken with her when she resigned from the party in 2002), plus official parliamentary status and balance of power in the Senate, the Party faced a very difficult task in the 2007 election trying to keep its four remaining Senate seats. Right throughout John Howard's fourth term, opinion polls showed public support for the Democrats consistently scraping along rock bottom levels of 1 or 2 per cent, as they had ever since the Lees resignation and the related public implosion of Natasha Stott Despoja's leadership in 2002. Even though the removal of the Democrats from the balance of power after the 2004 poll led directly to the Coalition government gaining control of the Senate, where it frequently used its majority to stifle scrutiny and bulldoze through some controversial legislation, the Democrats were unable to use this situation to build public support for returning the Party to its traditional Senate watchdog position. The Party had avoided going into debt in its 2004 campaign, so there were sufficient funds to run a basic campaign in priority areas for the 2007 election. However, serious use of paid advertising was not feasible.

Anne-Maree Tiernan BA (Australian National University) BComm (Hons) (Griffith University) Department of Politics and Public Policy, Griffith University Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy November 2004 Abstract This thesis traces the development of the ministerial staffing system in Australian Commonwealth government from 1972 to the present. It explores four aspects of its contemporary operations that are potentially problematic. These are: the accountability of ministerial staff, their conduct and behaviour, the adequacy of current arrangements for managing and controlling the staff, and their fit within a Westminster-style political system. In the thirty years since its formal introduction by the Whitlam government, the ministerial staffing system has evolved to become a powerful new political institution within the Australian core executive. Its growing importance is reflected in the significant growth in ministerial staff numbers, in their increasing seniority and status, and in the progressive expansion of their role and influence. There is now broad acceptance that ministerial staff play necessary and legitimate roles, assisting overloaded ministers to cope with the unrelenting demands of their jobs. However, recent controversies involving ministerial staff indicate that concerns persist about their accountability, about their role and conduct, and about their impact on the system of advice and support to ministers and prime ministers.

    ABOUT FACE: ASIAN REPRESENTATIONS OF AUSTRALIA Alison Elizabeth Broinowski 12 December 2001 A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of The Australian National University ii Statement This thesis is my own work. Preliminary research was undertaken collaboratively with a team of Asian Australians under my co-direction with Dr Russell Trood and Deborah McNamara. They were asked in 1995-96 to collect relevant material, in English and vernacular languages, from the public sphere in their countries of origin. Three monographs based on this work were published in 1998 by the Centre for the Study of Australia Asia Relations at Griffith University and these, together with one unpublished paper, are extensively cited in Part 2. The researchers were Kwak Ki-Sung, Anne T. Nguyen, Ouyang Yu, and Heidi Powson and Lou Miles. Further research was conducted from 2000 at the National Library with a team of Chinese and Japanese linguists from the Australian National University, under an ARC project, ‘Asian Accounts of Australia’, of which Shun Ikeda and I are Chief Investigators. Its preliminary findings are cited in Part 2. Alison Broinowski iii Abstract This thesis considers the ways in which Australia has been publicly represented in ten Asian societies in the twentieth century. It shows how these representations are at odds with Australian opinion leaders’ assertions about being a multicultural society, with their claims about engagement with Asia, and with their understanding of what is ‘typically’ Australian. It reviews the emergence and development of Asian regionalism in the twentieth century, and considers how Occidentalist strategies have come to be used to exclude and marginalise Australia.
