For years, Aborigines and Torres Strait Islanders in Queensland and other jurisdictions have been denied the wages due them for work they did for government and other bosses dating back beyond 100 years. They were subjected to a racist “protection” regime, where money they earned was paid to a “Protector of Aborigines” who, in most cases, protected the revenue flow to government coffers rather than provided relative benefit to the Indigenous people, individually or as a group. The Queensland and other jurisdictions – particularly WA and the NT – have proposed various compensation schemes over the years, but usually offering a pittance of what is due to those who literally slaved away without pay. Soon there will be a chance real dollars, in today’s value terms, might flow to rightful recipients. For the situation in WA, see: http://tinyurl.com/j5qwkuf PHOTO: Children branding cattle on a government station in the Kimberley, WA, in the 1910s. – State Library of WA Little sense in ABS approach to the census The national census will be held this month.

Presiding Officers' Foreword Established in 1971, the Australian Parliamentary Fellowship has provided an opportunity for an academic analysis of many aspects of Parliament and the work of Parliamentarians. The work of Dr Marion Maddox, the 1999 Fellow, has been the first to assess and set in context the religious influences felt by current and past Senators and Members as they pursue their parliamentary duties. With two doctorates (in theology and political philosophy) Dr Maddox brought both fields together in her Fellowship project. In for For God and Country: Religious Dynamics in Australian Federal Politics Dr Maddox explores religious influences and debate in and around the Thirty-Eighth and Thirty-Ninth Parliaments.

Inquiries should be made to the publisher. Typeset, printed & bound by Southwood Press Pty Limited 80-92 Chapel Street, Marrickville, NSW For the publisher Sydney University Law School Phillip Street, Sydney ISBN 0 909777 22 5 Preface 1990 marks the Centenary of the Law School. Technically the Centenary of the Faculty of Law occurred in 1957, 100 years after the Faculty was formally established by the new University. In that sense, Sydney joins Melbourne as the two oldest law faculties in Australia. But, even less than the law itself, a law school is not just words on paper; it is people relating to each other, students and their teachers. Effectively the Faculty began its teaching existence in 1890. In that year the first full time Professor, Pitt Cobbett was appointed. Thus, and appropriately, the Law School celebrated its centenary in 1990, 33 years after the Faculty might have done. In addition to a formal structure, a law school needs a substantial one, stone, bricks and mortar in better architectural days, but if pressed to it, pre-stressed concrete. In its first century, as these chapters recount, the School was rather peripatetic — as if on circuit around Phillip Street.
