  • Alan Oakley Sent: Thursday, 15 May 2008 5:08 PM To: Joanne Puccini Subject: RE: Media Watch Query
    From: Alan Oakley Sent: Thursday, 15 May 2008 5:08 PM To: Joanne Puccini Subject: RE: Media watch query Hi Joanne, Thanks for the inquiry. I never discuss why something is or isn't published, suffice to say it's called editing and it happens daily. I don't discuss the performance of individual journalists in a public forum; I find it more constructive to talk to them. I don't discuss how reporters are briefed for assignments; only they need to know. regards, Alan From: Joanne Puccini Sent: Thursday, 15 May 2008 12:54 PM To: Alan Oakley; Sue Ritchie Subject: Media watch query Alan Oakley Editor The Sydney Morning Herald By email 15 May 2008 Dear Alan, On Saturday May 10th, The Age published a lengthy "farewell" report by Fairfax's departing Middle East correspondent Ed O'Loughlin. We understand that the same piece, albeit perhaps subbed somewhat differently, was due to be published in the Sydney Morning Herald's News Review section the same day. However, it did not appear and has not been published subsequently in the Herald. - Could you tell us why you decided not to run this report in The Sydney Morning Herald? There has been frequent criticism of Mr O’Loughlin’s reporting by some supporters of Israel, who appear to believe that he is overly critical of Israel and the IDF, overly sympathetic to the Palestinian point of view, and insufficiently critical of Hamas. (For example, by Michael Danby MP; Mr Tzvi Fleischer, Editor-in-Chief of AIJAC’s Australia/Israel Review; and by AIJAC’s Jamie Hyams, to name a few.) - Did these criticisms of his reporting by the so-called “Jewish/Israel lobby” in any way influence your decision not to run Ed O'Loughlin's final report? Shortly after the announcement of his appointment to replace Ed O’Loughlin as Fairfax’s Jerusalem-based Middle East correspondent, Jason Koutsoukis was reported by the Australian Jewish News as saying: “There's two sides to every story and I think we've got to tell both sides.

  • Chronology of Same-Sex Marriage Bills Introduced Into the Federal Parliament: a Quick Guide
    RESEARCH PAPER SERIES, 2017–18 UPDATED 24 NOVEMBER 2017 Chronology of same-sex marriage bills introduced into the federal parliament: a quick guide Deirdre McKeown Politics and Public Administration Section On 15 November 2017, the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) announced the results of the voluntary Australian Marriage Law Postal survey. The ABS reported that, of the 79.5 per cent of Australians who expressed a view on the question Should the law be changed to allow same-sex couples to marry?, ‘the majority indicated that the law should be changed to allow same-sex couples to marry, with 7,817,247 (61.6 per cent) responding Yes and 4,873,987 (38.4 per cent) responding No’. On the same day Senator Dean Smith (LIB, WA) introduced, on behalf of eight cross-party co-sponsors, a bill to amend the Marriage Act 1961 (Cth) so as to redefine marriage as ‘a union of two people’. This is the fifth marriage equality bill introduced in the current (45th) Parliament, while six bills were introduced into the previous (44th) Parliament. Since the 2004 amendment to the Marriage Act 1961 (Cth) which inserted the current definition of marriage, 23 bills dealing with marriage equality or the recognition of overseas same-sex marriages have been introduced into the federal Parliament. Four bills have come to a vote: three in the Senate (in 2010, 2012 and 2013), and one in the House of Representatives (in 2012). These bills were all defeated at the second reading stage; consequently no bill has been debated by the second chamber.

  • Declan Clausen [email protected] I Was
    Declan Clausen [email protected] I was privileged to have recently attended the 13th annual Science Meets Parliament conference (SmP) held in Canberra as the recipient of a generous APESMA Scholarship. SmP is organised by scientific lobby group Science and Technology Australia, brings together more than 150 of Australia’s preeminent industrial and research scientists and engineers. The goal of SmP is to allow participants to discuss science with other scientists, the media, influential public servants and parliamentarians. I currently study Environmental Engineering full time at the University of Newcastle, and work part time at the Hunter Water Corporation as an Industry Scholar. Outside of University and work, I am incredibly passionate about politics and policy creation, making SmP a near perfect match for my current skills, qualifications and interest. The first day of SmP began with members of the delegation working in small groups to put together a web outlining the influences on science, politics and public policy. The remainder of the first day was spent discussing these contributing influences including discussions with a media panel, a budget officer from the Commonwealth Treasury, the Deputy Secretary of the Department of Innovation, and with a team from the Centre for Public Awareness who specialise in social media and demonstrated how the new media influences science. These activities provided a detailed insight which would provide participants with knowledge that would set the scene for the rest of the conference. The first day of SmP ended in a spectacular fashion with a formal dinner held in the Great Hall of Parliament House.

  • Before I Call the Hon. Dr Peter Phelps, I Remind Honourable Members That He Is About to Make Is His Inaugural Speech
    GOVERNOR'S SPEECH: ADDRESS-IN-REPLY The PRESIDENT: Order! Before I call the Hon. Dr Peter Phelps, I remind honourable members that he is about to make is his inaugural speech. I invite all members to extend to him the traditional courtesies that are extended to a new member on such an occasion. The Hon. Dr PETER PHELPS [2.40 p.m.] (Inaugural Speech): I second the motion for adoption of the address in reply to the Governor's opening Speech. Mr President, may I first congratulate you on your election. It is a most deserved honour and my joy is tempered only by your refusal to don full regalia. Let me state also that I am delighted to be in this place. For many years now it is all that I have wanted to be. It was this place that in 1984 launched my political career. It was a Wednesday—it must have been a Wednesday, because that was the sports day and the Fort Street High School under 16 Rugby team had a bye. Being mildly interested in politics, I hopped on the bus and went into town to see Parliament for the first time. I was so appalled by what I saw that when I left this place I walked down Bridge Street to Anchor House, met a nice lady called Mrs Macauley, got out my wallet and joined the Liberal Party on the spot. However, I did find it strange that Mrs Mac put me into a branch nowhere near where I lived. I was to discover only in later years the significance of such occurrences.
