You Can't Be What You Can't See— Women
Legislative Assembly for the Australian Capital Territory 49th Presiding Officers and Clerks Conference Wellington, New Zealand 8-13 July 2018 You can’t be what you can’t see— Women in the Legislative Assembly for the Australian Capital Territory Paper to be presented by Joy Burch, MLA, Speaker of the Legislative Assembly for the Australian Capital Territory Page 1 of 10 ‘Any way you look at it there are many, many women who are capable of that job of leadership and making an impact at every level of government and I think we should see more”1 “Women in politics do make a difference and they can change people’s perceptions of politics – they also change the structural discrimination of old-style political systems and parliamentary conventions”2 1 Rosemary Follett, ‘Rosemary Follett and Kate Carnell reunited to sight sexism in politics’ Canberra Times 7th March 2015. 2 Katy Gallagher, ACT Chief Minister, katygallagher.net/blog blog post, 1st October 2014. Page 2 of 10 Introduction Women have played an important and prominent role in the Legislative Assembly for the Australian Capital Territory since its establishment in 1989. The ACT was the first state or territory to have a woman as its Head of Government. In the Second Assembly, the positions of Speaker, Chief Minister and Leader of the Opposition were all held by women. Perhaps most significantly, at the Territory election for the Ninth Assembly in 2016, thirteen women were elected to the Assembly. It was the first time in Australian history that a majority of women had been elected to a parliament and one of the first jurisdictions in the world to have done so.3 It was also notable that the voters of the ACT returned this result even though only 36 percent of the total 140 candidates that stood for election were women. -

After two years of uncertainty, the council-owned cattle selling facility was saved from permanent closure after elected members backed a motion to keep the gates open conditional on the yards maintaining a yearly throughput of 8500. At Tuesday night’s council meeting, elected members resumed discussion on a motion by cattle producer and Councillor Moira Neagle to continue the operations of the facility until 2025, de- velop a management plan for the faculty and consider recurrent funding for capi- tal upgrades. But Penola-based Rick Paltridge - who has been a vocal opponent of continuing the saleyards - told the chamber he had spoken to “numerous people around the region” including stock agents, truck drivers, meat buyers and farmers who he claimed believed the saleyards should be closed down.

Motor Vehicle Insurance and Repair Industry in South Australia
PP 268 AN INQUIRY INTO MOTOR VEHICLE INSURANCE AND REPAIR INDUSTRY IN SOUTH AUSTRALIA Eighth Report of the ECONOMIC AND FINANCE COMMITTEE Tabled in the House of Assembly and ordered to be published on Thursday 24 September Second Session, Fifty-Fourth Parliament PRESIDING MEMBER'S FOREWORD The motor vehicle repair industry is a significant economic contributor, both in South Australia and nationally, generating over $7.2 billion in revenue nationally each year from over 111000 businesses that employ more than 37,000 people. In South Australia, almost 5,000 businesses in the automotive retail, service and repair sectors contribute $2.85 billion annually to the economy, employing over 29,000 people, including 500 apprentices, with another 900 apprentices in training. In recent decades the crash repair industry has undergone a rationalisation process at both the national and local level, but there are still hundreds of crash repairers located across the State, providing the important service of getting motor vehicles back on the road in a manner that ensures the continued safety of all South Australian road users. There was a substantial amount of interest in this Inquiry across the crash repair and motor vehicle insurance sectors. The Committee received 53 written submissions and heard from 35 witnesses across seven public hearings and two in camera hearings, held between October 2019 and July 2020. The public galleries at the hearings held in late 2019 were consistently full of interested observers, highlighting the significant importance this Inquiry held for the South Australian crash repair industry. During the Inquiry, the Committee heard from many crash repairers and consumers about the issues they had encountered while trying to get vehicles repaired as part of an insurance claim. -
Todd Farrell Thesis
The Australian Greens: Realignment Revisited in Australia Todd Farrell Submitted in fulfilment for the requirements of the Doctorate of Philosophy Swinburne University of Technology Faculty of Health, Arts and Design School of Arts, Social Sciences and Humanities 2020 ii I declare that this thesis does not incorporate without acknowledgement any material previously submitted for a degree in any university or another educational institution and to the best of my knowledge and belief it does not contain any material previously published or written by another person except where due reference is made in the text. iii ABSTRACT Scholars have traditionally characterised Australian politics as a stable two-party system that features high levels of partisan identity, robust democratic features and strong electoral institutions (Aitkin 1982; McAllister 2011). However, this characterisation masks substantial recent changes within the Australian party system. Growing dissatisfaction with major parties and shifting political values have altered the partisan contest, especially in the proportionally- represented Senate. This thesis re-examines partisan realignment as an explanation for party system change in Australia. It draws on realignment theory to argue that the emergence and sustained success of the Greens represents a fundamental shift in the Australian party system. Drawing from Australian and international studies on realignment and party system reform, the thesis combines an historical institutionalist analysis of the Australian party system with multiple empirical measurements of Greens partisan and voter support. The historical institutionalist approach demonstrates how the combination of subnational voting mechanisms, distinctly postmaterialist social issues, federal electoral strategy and a weakened Labor party have driven a realignment on the centre-left of Australian politics substantial enough to transform the Senate party system. -
