    3121 iternetatnwp TIunrt Tuesday, 17 October 1989 THE PRESIDENT (Hon Clive Griffiths) took the Chair at 3.30 pm, and read prayers. MOTION - G OVERNOR OF WESTERN AUSTRALIA Retirement - Appreciation HON GEOR(;E CASH (North Metropolitan - Leader of the Opposition) [3.33 pm] - by leave: i move, without notice - That following the retirement on 30 September 1989 of the Governor of Western Australia, Professor Gordon Reid, this House conveys its appreciation to Professor Gordon Reid and Mrs Ruth Reid for the outstanding service they have extended to the people of Western Australia during their term in viceregal office and for the gracious manner in which they have worked to protect and enhance the dignity and respect that the position of Governor should hold under our Westminster system of Parliament. I thank the House for granting me leave on this occasion. The reason I have moved this motion today is that it is the first day the Parliament has returned after a two week recess since the retirement of Professor Gordon Reid as Governor of Western Australia. Members will be aware that Professor Reid was appointed Governor of Western Australia in 1984 and retired on 30 September 1989. It is true that he has retired as a result of ill health, something that we have raised in this House before and about which I have spoken to wish him well in his recovery from his present illness. Professor Reid was a special person in the role of Governor of Western Australia. If we look at Governors this State has had in recent times, in general terms they were people who had been born overseas.

  • The Burke Labor Government
    THE BURKE LABOR GOVERNMENT Dr Geoffrey Gallop, Murdoch University Paper delivered at 1984 APSA Conference, 27-29 August, Melbourne University I would like to thank the many people who helped in the preparation of this paper. ·. INTRODUCTION Labor came to power in Western Australia in February 1983 on the 1 basis of 54.4 per cent of the two-party-preferred vote. This amounted toa swing of 6.5 per cent. The largest swings were recorded in the north west (10.8 per cent) and in the outer metropolitan region (7 per cent). Nine Assembly seats fell to Labor: three in the metropolitan zone, five in the agricultural, mining and pastoral zone and one in the north. The Liberals gained one seat at the expense of the National Country Party. This left Labor with a clear majority in the Legislative Assembly and only three seats with a two-party-preferred vote of below 53 per cent. The Liberal Party has four seats in such a position, including Subiaco whose member, Dr Tom Dadour, has resigned from the party and now sits as an independent. Dadour has indicated that he intends to contest the seat as an independent at the next election. The Liberal Party preserved its clear majority in the Legislative Council - and its belief in the legitimacy of the currently constituted second chamber. On the basis of 52 per cent of the two-party-preferred vote Labor won 7 out of the 17 provinces. The Liberals lost North Metropolitan to Labor but won Lower Central and Central from the National Country Party.

Scott presented the following petition bearing the signatures of 456 persons - To the Honourable the President and members of the Legislative Council in Parliament assembled. We the undersigned residents of Western Australia are concerned that the proposed Fremantle Eastern Bypass will:- • fragment and dislocate the communities of Whitegum Valley, Hamilton Hill and Beaconsfield; • increase vehicle emissions, affecting air quality and pollution levels; • remove the school oval and green areas of Whitegum Valley Primary School; • threaten safety of school children and all pedestrians and road users due to increased traffic levels in the surrounds; • create increased traffic in the feeder roads, adversely affecting residents; and • destroy remnant urban bushland at Clontarf Hill. Your petitioners therefore humbly pray that the Legislative Council examine the promises made by the Minister for Transport in relation to a study being undertaken to compare the alternative Stock Road option with the proposed Fremantle Eastern Bypass and why those undertakings have not been fulfilled. Your petitioners therefore humbly pray that you will give this matter earnest consideration and your petitioners, as in duty bound, will ever pray.

    4074 iugielth Assnm y Tuesday, 31 October 1989 THE SPEAKER (Mr Barnett) took the Chair at 2.15 pm, and read prayers. MOTION - CONDOLENCE The Late ProfessorGordon Reid - Former Governor of Western Australia MR PETER DOWDING (Maylands - Premier) [2.17 pm]: I move - That this House records its sincere regret at the death of the former Governor of Western Australia, Professor Gordon Reid. In moving this condolence motion [ would like, on behalf of the House and the people of Western Australia, to pay tribute to Professor Reid. Professor Reid's passing will be felt with a deep sense of loss by all who knew him and all those who camne into contact with him while he performed his duties as Governor. His stamp on the office of Governor of Western Australia must surely be the way in which he performed his duties in such a compassionate and caring manner. Indeed, he became one of this State's most respected and popular Governors and brought to the office a sense of stability and warmth. Professor Reid's distinguished period as Governor from July 1984 until his retirement last month was preceded by an equally distinguished contribution in the workplace and service to this country. Professor Reid was born in Sydney in 1923 and left school at the early age of 14 to become a telegraph boy. He served as a navigator during World War H1 and later joined the Public Service. Many members will be aware of his deep understanding and passion for the parliamentary system; as a young man this eventually led him to work in the House of Representatives, First as a reading clerk, then through a range of jobs until he became Sergeant-at-Arms.

BERINSON (North Metropolitan - Leader of the House) [3.34 pm]: I move, without notice - That this House records its deep regret at the death of the fanner Governor of Western Australia, Professor Gordon Reid, and extends its sincere sympathy to Mrs Ruth Reid and their family. It is only a few days since we paid tribute to Professor Gordon Reid on his retirement as Governor of Western Australia. On behalf of the Government it is now my sad duty to express the deep regret and sense of loss which I am sure that all Western Australians share at his early and untimely death. At all times Professor Reid fulfilled his duties as Governor in a compassionate and caring manner. His decency, integrity and intellect made him one of this State's most popular Governors. His warmth and sincerity made him a true representative of the people and, conversely, the object of the most widespread respect and affection. Professor Reid's period as Governor was preceded by other distinguished service to the nation in many areas. Born in Sydney on 22 September 1923, Gordon Stanley Reid left school at the age of 14 to become a telegraph boy. During World War HI he served as a navigator in the Royal Australian Air Force and at the end of the war joined the Commnonwealth Public Service.

  • PARLIAMENT of WESTERN AUSTRALIA Legislative Council
    PARLIAMENT OF WESTERN AUSTRALIA HON JOE BERINSON, MLC Condolence Motion Legislative Council Tuesday, 26 June 2018 Reprinted from Hansard Legislative Council Tuesday, 26 June 2018 ____________ HON JOE BERINSON Condolence Motion HON SUE ELLERY (South Metropolitan — Leader of the House) [2.02 pm] — without notice: I move — That this house expresses its deep regret at the death of Hon Joe Berinson, a former member of the Legislative Council for the North-East Metropolitan Province, later reconstituted as the North Central Metropolitan Province, and the North Metropolitan Region; and places on record its appreciation for his long public service, and tenders its profound sympathy to his wife and members of his family in their bereavement. Can I begin by paying my respects to Joe’s family and friends, leaders from the Western Australian Jewish community, and the many former members of Parliament who are with us in the gallery today as we pay our respects to Hon Joe Berinson. Joseph Max Berinson, or Joe as everybody knew him, was born at the family home near Hyde Park on 7 January 1932. Joe attended Highgate Primary School, which, to use his own words, was a real melting pot. When asked about whether he faced much bigotry while growing up due to his Jewish heritage, Joe remarked that he doubted very much whether as many as half of the pupils at Highgate primary came from other than immigrant families. In his own words, he said, “It was a great mixture there, so if you weren’t Jewish, you were Greek or Italian or something—Polish.” Joe did well at school and won a scholarship to attend Perth Modern School.

  • Feminism, Politics and Women's Policy in Western Australia, 1972
    Burning Down the House?: Feminism, Politics and Women’s Policy in Western Australia, 1972-1998 Jasmina Brankovich, BA (Hons) UWA This thesis is presented for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of the University of Western Australia School of Humanities, Discipline of History 2007 ABSTRACT This thesis examines the constraints and options inherent in placing feminist demands on the state, the limits of such interventions, and the subjective, intimate understandings of feminism among agents who have aimed to change the state from within. First, I describe the central element of a „femocratic‟ policy machinery as a three-tiered network of politicians, public servants, and women in community organisations and political lobbies, who were agents of a particular brand of feminism. I focus on the formation of a women‟s information service, passage of equal opportunity legislation, and a legislative decriminalisation of early abortion, as case studies where these networks were most effective in engendering change. Second, the politics of the 1970s Perth women‟s movement shared a heritage of peculiarly Australian tradition of social liberalism, where the state intervened to equalise the unequal social order. The „feminism‟ articulated within the state was influenced by social liberalism, but was also configured and reconfigured according to the specific Western Australian political context. Third, the material obtained in interviews with women politicians and senior bureaucrats constituted the most important source of the women‟s understandings of the politically volatile arenas of public life in which they worked. In particular, insights gathered in this material underscored and reinforced the complexities of feminist involvement with the state and the fragile, contraditory nature of feminist gains.
