  • Victorian and ACT Electoral Boundary Redistribution
    Barton Deakin Brief: Victorian and ACT Electoral Boundary Redistribution 9 April 2018 Last week, the Australian Electoral Commission (‘AEC’) announced substantial redistributions for the Electorate Divisions in Victoria and the ACT. The redistribution creates a third Federal seat in the ACT and an additional seat in Victoria. These new seats are accompanied by substantial boundary changes in Victoria and the ACT. ABC electoral analyst Antony Green has predicted that the redistribution would notionally give the Australian Labor Party an additional three seats in the next election – the Divisions of Dunkley, Fraser, and Bean – while the seat of Corangamite would become one of the most marginal seats in the country. The proposed changes will now be subject to a consultation period where objections to the changes may be submitted to the AEC. The objection period closes at 6pm May 4 in both the ACT and Victoria. A proposed redistribution for South Australia will be announced on April 13. This Barton Deakin Brief will summarize the key electoral boundary changes in the ACT and Victoria. New Seats The Redistribution Committee has proposed that four of Victoria’s electoral divisions be renamed. Additionally, two new seats are to be created in Victoria and the ACT New Seats Proposed for Victoria and ACT DIVISION OF BEAN (ACT) New seat encompassing much of the former Division of Canberra. The seat will be named after World War I war correspondent Charles Edwin Woodrow Green (1879-1968) DIVISION OF FRASER (VIC) New seat named after former Liberal Party Prime Minister John Malcolm Fraser AC CH GCL (1930-2015), to be located in Melbourne’s western suburbs.

    Journal of Sustainability Education Vol. 7, December 2014 ISSN: 2151-7452 Sustainability Across The Australian Curriculum: Will It Remain A Priority? Hannah O’Connor Deakin University, Melbourne, Australia. Abstract: The purpose of this article is to articulate the significance of education for sustainable development in order to support the integration of sustainability as a cross- curricular priority within the newly developed Australian Curriculum. An investigation into the implementation of sustainability across the curriculum was carried out in two Australian public schools in order to identify its relevancy to various learning areas. The developmental history of the Australian Curriculum will be explored to contextualize this article within the current socio-political environment. Discussions with teachers suggested that the political agendas surrounding the curriculum had influenced the implementation of sustainability in different learning areas. The school located in the Labor electorate had demonstrated their ability to implement sustainability in all six learning areas investigated. Results from the school located within the Liberal electorate showed that sustainability was less of a priority with the implementation of three out of the six learning areas teaching sustainability organizing ideas to students. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with the head of curriculum of both schools and their perception of the environment was determined using Sauvè’s (1992, 1994) typology of conceptions for the environment. Focus group discussions with year seven and ten students had identified conceptions similar to that of their head of curriculum. Students identified environmental issues in their discussions and suggested education, as a means for combating climate change. Students expressed that sustainability was important and did so with concerns for the future.

    ‘FOR THE UNION MAKES US … RICH?’: PREVENTING TRADE UNION CORRUPTION IN LAW AFTER THE HEALTH SERVICES UNION SAGA ∗ JOEL SILVER While uncommon, corruption amongst Australian trade union officials is nevertheless well documented and notorious. How the law responds to corruption has become the subject of renewed debate, due to allegations against several former officials of the Health Services Union, in particular Craig Thomson and Michael Williamson. This article argues in favour of revising the provisions describing officials’ duties in the federal Fair Work (Registered Organisations) Act 2009 (Cth) — the law which regulates trade unions — to more closely resemble their sister provisions in the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth). It contends that corrupt officials are best dealt with under specific ‘disloyalty’ offences, as opposed to generic property crimes (such as fraud or obtaining by deception). It also addresses a number of other potential weaknesses in the present legislative scheme. I INTRODUCTION The Commonwealth law that governs the internal affairs of employer, employee and enterprise associations is the Fair Work (Registered Organisations) Act 2009 (Cth) (‘the Registered Organisations Act’). This Act is to associations — employer organisations and trade unions1 — in many respects what the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) is to corporations, in so far as ∗ LLB (Hons) (Melb), GDLP (Leo Cussen Institute), Australian Lawyer and Officer of the Supreme Court of Victoria. This article is based upon an essay originally completed as part of the Melbourne Law Masters subject ‘LAWS70385 Corporate and White Collar Criminal Law’. The author wishes to thank subject co-ordinator Professor Stuart P Green and the anonymous referee for their feedback.
