Tasmania: Majority Or Minority Government? *
AUSTRALASIAN PARLIAMENTARY REVIEW Tasmania: Majority or Minority Government? * Michael Lester and Dain Bolwell PhD Candidate, Institute for the Study of Social Change, Department of Politics and International Relations, University of Tasmania Associate, Institute for the Study of Social Change, Department of Politics and International Relations, University of Tasmania * Double-blind reviewed article. INTRODUCTION While the outcome of the March 2018 Tasmanian State Election was predictable,1 the controversies that dogged the campaign were not. Yet it was the aftermath of the election that was most astonishing—not only to the public but also to members of Cabinet. Tasmania is different. Its parliamentary institutions are unusual and its electoral system is distinctive. So were the issues on which the March 2018 state election was fought. In the lead up to the election both major parties campaigned to govern alone or not at all—neither in minority nor in coalition with the Greens. As well as this apparently overarching concern, there were three other major issues prominent during the campaign—an acute housing shortage, the thousands of poker machines in pubs and clubs, and the surprise matter of gun control. Health, education, law and order, the economy and who would best manage the budget were, as usual, also policy battle grounds; however, the minority government fear campaign, a television blitz on the benefits of poker machines and considerable 1 N.

CLArion No 1910 – 01 October 2019 CLA on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/CivilLibertiesAus/ Email newsletter of Civil Liberties Australia (A04043) Email: Secretary(at)cla.asn.au Web: http://www.cla.asn.au/ ____________________________________________ Kalisch emerges from ABS bunker with new, intrusive Census questions The next national census, in 2021, is likely to carry questions about gender identity, smoking, previous or current service in the military, sexual orientation and chronic health conditions, the Australian Bureau of Statistics boss David Kalisch has revealed. Some questions likely to disappear include the number of cars people have or their internet access options. The only reason for dropping the internet question appears to be so the government is not embarrassed by failed NBN rollout and service speeds. Kalisch, who presided over a census disaster in 2016 when IT systems failed dramatically to deliver during the $500m exercise, said lessons from that calamity “are informing” planning for the 2021 event. Given past performance – the ABS is a very slow learner, and frequently interprets “lessons” uniquely, and muddle-headedly – the census is no certainty to improve. The national statistician also claimed that all names collected from the last census have now been destroyed, while the address data will be destroyed by August 2020. But such a claim is a disingenuous furphy, Australian Privacy Foundation guru (and CLA member) Prof Roger Clarke says. “The data from this census, other censuses and surveys, and multiple government agencies, is all consolidated against an alternative identiﬁer, and that identiﬁer is linked to a database of names and addresses,” Prof Clarke said.
