  • Australian Official Statistics, 1822-1945: from Blue Books to White Papers
    International Statistical Institute, 55th Session 2005: Ian Castles Australian Official Statistics, 1822-1945: From Blue Books to White Papers Ian Castles Asia Pacific School of Economics and Government Australian National University, Canberra [email protected] The Blue Book System The mainstream of official statistics in Australia began in 1822 with the initiation of the annual system of reporting by Blue Books to the British Colonial Office in London. In that year, the Governors of the two British colonies in Australia - New South Wales and Van Diemen's Land, later Tasmania - received a circular from Lord Bathurst, Secretary of State for the Colonies, asking that they provide, in response to printed pro formas prepared for the purpose, a range of information relevant to their respective administrations. In his memorandum, Lord Bathurst said that he had had occasion to remark that a want of a regular form of transmission of detailed information respecting the financial resources of His Majesty's Colonies, and the several branches of their expenditure, is a deficiency which creates much inconvenience to the public Service. The circulars and the accompanying forms were sent to the governors of all British colonies around the globe. As the Secretary's memorandum made clear, the information was sought for the convenience of the administration, and covered those matters that were seen as necessary for that purpose. There does not seem to have been any recognition at this time that information might be of interest to a wider readership, either in the colony concerned or in Britain. The origin of the term 'Blue Book' appears to lie simply in the colour of the report cover.

  • The Role of Departmental Secretaries
    Secretaries’ personal development, support and performance assessment Elements Secretaries and other agency heads are all individuals with their own personal histories and personal styles and habits. Nonetheless, there are common skills and capabilities required for these jobs that need to be developed and nurtured, and their application supported and assessed. This chapter is a little more personal than the others, reflecting my own background and style, while also attempting to draw out issues and lessons. It canvasses: · career planning and development · continuing professional development · personal support · performance assessment. Career planning and development Australia does not have a formal, structured approach to grooming people for top public service positions, unlike practice in some other countries such as the United Kingdom and Singapore. Our approach is more laissez faire, relying almost entirely on personal career decisions and merit processes for selection to each and every position, at least up to the higher bands of the SES. This approach has been reinforced in recent times in response to increased mobility and increased lateral recruitment into the APS, including at SES and agency head levels. There have, however, been influential schemes, particularly for young graduate recruits, whose impact on the senior echelons of the APS continues to the present. When I was a secretary, I was one of several former Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) cadets who were agency heads. Others included Michael Keating and Neil Johnston. There were many more in the 1980s (for example, Vince FitzGerald, Chris Higgins and Michael Codd). There are still at least three former administrative trainees among the current group of secretaries (Helen Williams, Andrew Metcalfe and Terry Moran); Allan Hawke and Roger Beale were others in my time.

DESCRIPTORS Adult Basic Education; *Adult Literacy; Basic Skills; Foreign Countries; Instructional Materials; *Integrated Curriculum; Learning Activities; *Literacy Education; Mathematics Instruction; *Mathematics Skills; *Numeracy; Student Evaluation; Teaching Guides IDENTIFIERS Australia ABSTRACT This resource includes units of work developed by different practitioners that integrate the teaching of literacy with the teaching of numeracy in adult basic education. It is designed to provide models of integration for teachers to develop similar resources on different contexts or themes. The units follow slightly different formats. Unit lengths vary from a few sessions to the basis of a semester's work. The way in which literacy and numeracy are integrated also varies; in some units there are literacy and numeracy activities on the same theme or context, and in others activities are more closely woven. The nine sections are on these topics: water, gardens, reasonable force, aboriginal land, work, women in Australia, tourist spots, juggling pool, and banking. Components of each section include the following: learning outcomes; topics; resources; future directions; teacher notes that correlate in a column format whether the activity is primarily literacy or numeracy or both, activities, resources, and assessment; and handouts. Units list additional resources that can be used to extend the students' understanding of particular mathematical skills.

  • 27. Ian Castles and the IPCC – Selected Letters
    27. Ian Castles and the IPCC – Selected Letters The following are selected letters from Ian Castles to Dr Rajendra Pachauri, Chairman of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, between 2002 and 2004. Some attachments to the letters are not included, nor are some web references which may no longer be available.1 To the best of our knowledge, Dr Pachauri never replied substantively to these well researched and carefully crafted letters despite their implications for the vilidity of the IPCC work. The letters illustrate Castles’ original criticisms of the IPCC scenarios and the methodologies involved based upon statistical and economic considerations as distinct from climate science factors. While Castles’ criticisms were not properly addressed by the IPCC during this period, some have subsequently been taken into account. Castles remained, however, deeply concerned about the IPCC’s work, particularly its long-term scenarios, the lack of careful assessment of their likelihood and the balancing of current costs of action against benefits far into the future. Andrew Podger, Dennis Trewin Letter of 6 August 2002 from Ian Castles to Dr Rajendra Pachauri Dr Rajendra Pachauri, Chairman, Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change Dear Dr Pachauri, 1. Thank you for your interest in my criticisms of the IPCC Special Report on Emissions Scenarios (SRES), and for inviting me to put my concerns in writing. I am taking the liberty of sending copies of this letter to others who joined in discussions on climate change issues with you in Canberra on 23 and 24 July, and also to a 'mailing list' of my colleagues in the international statistical community, government agencies and universities who follow my ongoing correspondence about the use and abuse of statistics in public debates about 1 Except where otherwise indicated, all figures and tables in this chapter are Castles’ own.

  • Some Australian Views on Climate Change
    Occasional Paper Some Australian Views on Climate Change abstracted by Bob Carter from the published writings of Professor Bob Carter Mr Ian Castles Professor Aynsley Kellow Mr William Kininmonth Professor Garth Paltridge Professor Ian Plimer There is every reason to believe that the variability of global temperature and other climate characteristics that have been experienced over the past century are part of the natural variability of the climate system, and are not a consequence of recent anthropogenic activities. William Kininmonth Version 28-02-05 Quick Bites To focus on the chimera of anthropological greenhouse warming while ignoring real threats posed by the natural variability of the climate system is self-delusion on a grand scale. William Kininmonth Governments must be advised that the economic projections used in the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) emissions scenarios are technically unsound Ian Castles The public conditioning process involves spreading the belief that announcements of the IPCC are the consensus opinion of the vast majority of knowledgeable climate scientists. That belief is simply not true. Garth Paltridge The key policy questions are about what costs we should accept to attempt to mitigate how much climate change, and on the basis of what degree of scientific certainty. Aynsley Kellow There is an urgent need for governments to shake themselves free of the partial advice provided by environmental advocacy groups and government science agencies, all of whom have a strong and often undeclared self-interest in climate change matters. Bob Carter Underpinning the global warming and climate change mantra is the imputation that humans live on a non-dynamic planet.
