In 1900 when Australia adopted a federal constitution, there was a history of economic and political independence in the federating colonies. Australia's founding fathers, while trained in the working of British Westminster model, were quite attracted to the American federal model. Thus six self- governing British colonies, while becoming constituent states of the federal system, ensured that the rights of the states would not be subordinated to the central power and there was equal representation in the senate. Accordingly, the constitution provided that the Commonwealth would have only such powers as were expressively conferred upon it, leaving all the residual powers within the exclusive authority of the states. However, from the very beginning there emerged a national sentiment for strengthening and augmenting the central government powers. There came up a gradual expansion of the central government. This was achieved partly by constitutional amendments, partially by High Courts interpretations and to some extent by the consent of states in a formal manner during the two World Wars.

  • Relations Between Chambers in Bicameral Parliaments 121
    Relations between Chambers in Bicameral Parliaments 121 III. Relations between Chambers in Bicameral Parliaments 1. Introductory Note by the House of Commons of Canada, June 1991 In any bicameral parliament the two Houses share in the making of legisla- tion, and by virtue both of being constituent parts of the same entity and of this shared function have a common bond or link. The strength or weakness of this link is initially forged by the law regulating the composition, powers and functions of each Chamber, but is tempered by the traditions, practices, the prevailing political, social and economic climate and, indeed, even the personalities which comprise the two Chambers. Given all of these variables and all of the possible mutations and combina- tions of bicameral parliaments in general, no single source could presume to deal comprehensively with the whole subject of relations between the Houses in bicameral parliaments. Instead, the aim of the present notes is to attempt to describe some of the prominent features of relations between the two Houses of the Canadian Parliament with a view to providing a focus for discussion. The Canadian Context The Constitution of Canada provided in clear terms: "There shall be One Parliament for Canada, consisting of the Queen, an Upper House styled the Senate, and the House of Commons." The Senate, which was originally designed to protect the various regional, provincial and minority interests in our federal state and to afford a sober second look at legislation, is an appointed body with membership based on equal regional representation. Normally the Senate is composed of 104 seats which are allotted as follows: 24 each in Ontario, Quebec, the western provinces (6 each for Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Alberta and British Columbia) and the Maritimes (10 each in Nova Scotia and New Brunswick and 4 in Prince Edward Island); six in Newfoundland and one each in the Yukon and Northwest Territories.

  • Constitutional Origins, Structure and Change in Federal Democracies
    Commonwealth of Australia Cheryl Saunders Australia’s Constitution was negotiated during the last decade of the nineteenth century and came into force on 1 January 1901. Its federal features were substantially influenced by United States federalism, as then understood. Nevertheless, the Australian Constitution was distinctive from the outset in ways that were recognized during the drafting and that have become more prominent over time. Australia’s Constitution combines United States-style federalism with British institutions of parliamentary responsible government, creating a different dynamic for decision making within and between the spheres of government. The framers of the Constitution initially feared that these two sets of principles would be antagonistic, and indeed, accommodation has not always been easy. More significantly, however, with federalism and responsible government came different approaches to constitutionalism. One involved the limitation of power in an entrenched, written constitution. The other was highly pragmatic, favouring flexibility and efficiency over written constitutional rules. The tension between the two is still reflected in Australian constitutionalism. Those parts of the Constitution that create the legislature and the executive leave considerable discretion to the institutions of government. Attempts to apply constitutional restraints to them, even in the name of protecting democratic principles, have met considerable resistance.1 Few rights are secured through the Constitution; the framers, in the British tradition, assumed that rights could be protected by the Parliament and the common law. Few limits are placed on decision making by the states beyond those necessitated by federalism itself. By contrast, those parts of the Australian Constitution -- namely, allocating power for federal purposes, providing for social and economic union, and establishing the judicature, originally considered an incident of federalism2 -- are taken very seriously.
