Although the Parliamentary Record constitutes a record of the life of the 54th Parliament, the historical tables and records are also available on the Queensland Parliament's website at www.parliament.qld.gov.au, as is current information about the Members and the Parliament. The Former Members Register providing details of former members’ parliamentary appointments and brief information about their lives and careers can also be accessed from the Queensland Parliament’s website. The Record of Proceedings, commonly referred to as Hansard, is the official record of the debates and procedures of the Queensland Parliament. The 150th anniversary of the formal establishment of Queensland’s official record of proceedings occurred in 2014. The complete Hansard from 1864, as well as newspaper reports of parliamentary proceedings in the Moreton Bay Courier (1860 – 1863), are now available for searching on the Parliament’s website. Updating of the material for the Record of the 54th Parliament has been a combined effort of staff of the Parliamentary Library and Parliamentary Communication and Education Secretariat. Particular thanks are owed to Kalimna Kane of the Parliamentary Communication and Education Secretariat, and Melissa Cook and Roslin Bailey as well as the Research and Information Service staff of the Parliamentary Library. The Department of Natural Resources and Mines provided the original electorate maps used as the basis for the maps in the Parliamentary Record. Finally, the Library would appreciate notification of any discrepancies or errors found by readers. Please contact the Parliamentary Librarian on (07) 355 36200.

    Cunninghamia Date of Publication: February 2020 A journal of plant ecology for eastern Australia ISSN 0727- 9620 (print) • ISSN 2200 - 405X (Online) The Australian paintings of Marianne North, 1880–1881: landscapes ‘doomed shortly to disappear’ John Leslie Dowe Australian Tropical Herbarium, James Cook University, Smithfield, Qld 4878 AUSTRALIA. [email protected] Abstract: The 80 paintings of Australian flora, fauna and landscapes by English artist Marianne North (1830-1890), completed during her travels in 1880–1881, provide a record of the Australian environment rarely presented by artists at that time. In the words of her mentor Sir Joseph Dalton Hooker, director of Kew Gardens, North’s objective was to capture landscapes that were ‘doomed shortly to disappear before the axe and the forest fires, the plough and the flock, or the ever advancing settler or colonist’. In addition to her paintings, North wrote books recollecting her travels, in which she presented her observations and explained the relevance of her paintings, within the principles of a ‘Darwinian vision,’ and inevitable and rapid environmental change. By examining her paintings and writings together, North’s works provide a documented narrative of the state of the Australian environment in the late nineteenth- century, filtered through the themes of personal botanical discovery, colonial expansion and British imperialism.

The Livingstone Shire Local Disaster Management Plan (LDMP) has been prepared to ensure there is a consistant approach to Diaster Management in the Livingstone Shire. This plan is an important tool for managing potential disasters and is a demonstrated commitment towards enhancing the safety of the Livingstone Shire community.

Moreover, at the start of this project there were or~lytwo examples of a business - provider partnership for e-learning in the water industry in Australia. These were: a relationship between Wide Bay Water and Sunwater for water worker training and a preliminary arrangement between Wide Bay TAFE and Wide Bay Water to provide on-line training services to other Councils. The collaborative model of industry sector long-term funding has already (in the first three months) resulted in an increase in the number of relationships through two mechanisms. These are: new partnerships as a direct result of the project, and negotiation of partnerships with other RTOs through leverage provided by the project.

  • Proposal of Study
    THE TRIAL WITHIN: NEGOTIATING JUSTICE AT THE INTERNATIONAL MILITARY TRIBUNAL FOR THE FAR EAST, 1946-1948 by JAMES BURNHAM SEDGWICK B.A. (Honours), Acadia University, 2002 M.A., The University of Canterbury, 2004 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY in THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES (History) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Vancouver) July 2012 © James Burnham Sedgwick, 2012 Abstract This dissertation explores the inner-workings of the International Military Tribunal for the Far East (IMTFE). Commonly known as the Tokyo trial, Tokyo tribunal, or Tokyo IMT, the IMTFE brought Japan’s wartime leadership to justice for aggression, crimes against humanity, and war crimes committed during World War II. Using rare sources in three languages from public and private collections in eight countries, this dissertation presents a multi-perspective experiential history of the IMTFE in operation. By placing the court in a distinct international moment that produced the United Nations, the Nuremberg trial, the Genocide Convention, and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, among other outgrowths of global community, this work explores the IMTFE as both a groundbreaking judicial undertaking and a pioneering multilateral institution. Other scholars use overly reductive and judgmental constructs based on outside-looking-in perspectives to assess the court’s legal or moral legitimacy without appreciating or detailing its nuance and complexity. This dissertation prefers an inside-out view to explain the trial, not judge it. It describes the IMTFE as a collective endeavour and experience behind the scenes. Chapters review the personal, emotional, administrative, logistical, legal, political, and global dimensions of internationalism in action.

  • Senator Claire Moore
    Senator Claire Moore WEEKLY UPDATE: 1st June, 2018 Phone: (07) 3252 7101; email: [email protected]; Web:www.clairemoore.net; Twitter: www.twitter.com/SenClaireMoore; www.facebook.com/SenatorClaireMoore; ***** Labor’s National Conference will now be held in Adelaide from Sun 16 Dec to Tue 18 December. **** THIS WEEK: Apart for yet another implosion of One Nation this week, the main focus in Canberra has been on the changes the Government has proposed to the Family Court and the process of Senate Estimates. Labor welcomes the Government’s acknowledgement of the crisis in the family court system, and the pain it is causing families caught up in it. This situation has been going for far too long, and has worsened on the Government’s watch. Reform is needed but already serious concerns have been expressed as to some of the potential consequences of what the Government is proposing. This is especially the case in regard to the removal of the Appeals Division of the Family Court – which means that the toughest and most complex family law cases will no longer be heard by specialists. At the moment we have a lack of detail and will examines the legislation closely when it is made available. Estimates are a vital part of our parliamentary process and our democracy. They provide the opportunity for Senators to examine the performance of the Departments and Agencies. It allows us to scrutinise policy, programs and performance. Such scrutiny is very healthy for our political and administrative processes. It invariably provides many illuminating insights into the management of our government and it’s not, as this week’s Update will attest, – all good news.
