Melbourne Has Helped Father James Morova
A Kanabea Experience - “NOGAT KAIKAI” Kevin Williams was among a group of three Melbourne Seminarians who went to Papua New Guinea to gain some experience of what mission life entails. This account of Kanabea Mission is seen through Kevin’s eyes. A typical day (weather–wise) is when the sun rises in a bright blue sky over the surrounding mountains (most mornings I would wake up, leave our hut, and look down on the clouds – so we were quite high up). The temperature would reach 20 - 25° Celsius by the middle of the day. Then by 2 - 3 pm the rain clouds would sweep in and cover the mountaintops. It would then rain almost continually throughout the rest of the afternoon and into the night. Subsistence farming provides food for each family. Pigs (and occasionally chickens) roam freely around the gardens. Cattle grazed freely in a large fenced area around the mission station. Most of their gardens had been washed out by many months of torrential rain, resulting in major food shortages. The local Government was in the process of flying in rice to supplement the people’s diet. When performing his priestly ministry, Monsignor Flynn was frequently met with cries of “Nogat kaikai” (“no food”). The locally built huts were usually small round structures with bark panels or woven matting for walls. The roofs were conical and made up of leafy branches. A circle of stones in the middle of the hut is used for cooking. The local people also sleep in these huts, which can be a recipe for disaster. -

Tolle Lege September 2019
CTC Community News Tolle Lege SeptemberSeptember 20192019 Community news CTC farewells Bishop-elect Shane Mackinlay On 23 July, it was announced that Pope Francis had appointed Very Rev. Assoc. Prof. Shane Mackinlay as the eighth Bishop of Sandhurst, taking over from Bishop Les Tomlinson, whose resignation was announced on the same day. Fr Shane’s appointment as Bishop brings to an end his term as Master of Catholic Theological College, but not his association with the College, which will continue through his membership of the College Senate. Appointed to the position of Master in 2011, Fr Shane brought considerable gifts and experience at a time when the College’s relationship with the Univeristy of Divinity continued to develop and become more complex (see Dr Frances Baker’s tribute on page 4). Throughout his time as Master, he also continued in parish ministry, serving as a parish priest in the Ballarat Diocese in addition to his duties at the College. In taking up the role of Bishop of Sandhurst, he looks forward to continuing his ministry in regional Victoria. “I love teaching and also being involved with people in their local parish communities and I very much look forward to continuing those 1 two ministries in a different way in my new role,” he said. Welcoming the news of Fr Mackinlay’s appointment, Australian Catholic Bishops Conference president Archbishop Mark Coleridge noted his high intelligence, good strategic ability, deep faith and capacity to engage the culture. “All of this will make him a fine Bishop of Sandhurst and a real gain for the Bishops Conference at this important and complex time. -

Report on the Judicial Conduct and Complaints System in Victoria
THE JUDICIAL CONDUCT AND COMPLAINTS SYSTEM IN VICTORIA A REPORT Professor Peter A Sallmann Crown Counsel for Victoria Dec 2003 Dedication This report is dedicated to the memory of the late Richard E McGarvie AC QC, leading barrister, Supreme Court Judge, University Chancellor, Governor of Victoria and noted constitutional and political reformer, who made a huge contribution to the conduct of public affairs in Australia. Of special significance in the context of this report is his substantial influence on the development of the judicial branch of government in Australia and judicial administration in general. He was a member of the Judicial System Committee of the Constitutional Commission, a founding father of both the Australian Institute of Judicial Administration (AIJA) and the Judicial Conference of Australia (JCA) and, through a host of inquiries and committees, led many significant judicial administration reform initiatives. His numerous papers and published articles on key aspects of judicial administration are standard reading for students and judicial system practitioners alike. Richard McGarvie, who died in May this year, and the author of this report were good friends and judicial administration colleagues. They worked closely together on a number of justice system projects over the years. He contributed significantly to this particular report by providing various ideas and suggestions at key stages of the review. P.S. The Judicial Conduct and Complaints System in Victoria: A Report 2 About the Author Peter Sallmann is Crown Counsel for Victoria. He was the inaugural Executive Director of the Australian Institute of Judicial Administration (AIJA) from 1987-96 and before that he taught law and criminal justice at La Trobe University, and was a full-time Commissioner with the Law Reform Commission of Victoria. -
Samuel Griffith Society Proceedings Vol 10
Chapter One A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Referendum Sir David Smith, KCVO, AO On Friday, 13 February, 1998, in the House of Representatives Chamber of Old Parliament House, Canberra, republican delegates to the 1998 Constitutional Convention began to clap and cheer and embrace each other as the vote on the final resolution was taken. Spectators in the public gallery stood and cheered with them. But in the months that have followed, the republican euphoria has dimmed, even for some who had so enthusiastically joined in the clapping and the cheering and the embracing back in February. Not only have some of them predicted that the referendum to turn this country into a republic will fail: some have even dared to suggest that it will be a disaster for Australia if the referendum is carried. The final resolution recommended to the Prime Minister and the Parliament that the republican model supported by the Convention be put to the people in a constitutional referendum. This resolution received the votes of 133 of the 152 delegates. It was supported by delegates representing Australians for Constitutional Monarchy because we, too, want the issue of the republic settled once and for all. We welcome the opportunity to have it taken out of the hands of the various elites who have controlled and stifled the debate to date, and to have it put to the Australian people.1 Of more significance was the preceding resolution, which called for the Convention to support the adoption of the Turnbull republican model in preference to our present constitutional arrangements.
