AHERN (Landsborough—Premier and Treasurer and Minister for State Development and the Arts) (10.02 a.m.): I would Uke to take this opportunity to say a few words in recognition of the work done by Warwick Foote as Chief Reporter of the Queensland Parliament.

PARLIAMENTARY REPORTING STAFF Retirement of Chief Reporter; Appointment of Acting Chief Reporter and Acting Deputy Chief Reporter Mr GOSS (Logan—Leader of the Opposition) (10.06 a.m.): I rise simply to endorse the remarks of the Premier and, on behalf of the Opposition, to record our appreciation to Mr Foote and his staff The work of the reporting staff is, of course, often arduous, for long hours, and on those rare occasions when things are volatile and fast-moving in this place, their task is certainly not an easy one. Members of the Opposition certainly extend their good wishes to Mr Foote.

SUPPLY Constitution of Committee Hon. B. D. AUSTIN (Nicklin—Minister for Finance and Minister Assisting the Premier and Treasurer) (10.10 a.m.), by leave, without notice: I move— "That the House will, at its next sitting, resolve itself into a Committee of the Whole to consider the Supply to be granted to Her Majesty." Motion agreed to. 300 5 September 1989 Ministerial Statement WAYS AND MEANS Constitution of Committee Hon. B. D. AUSTIN (Nicklin—Minister for Finance and Minister Assisting the Premier and Treasurer) (10.11 a.m.), by leave, vrithout notice: I move— "That the House will, at its next sitting, resolve itself into a Committee of the Whole to consider of Ways and Means for raising the Supply to be granted to Her Majesty." Motion agreed to. MINISTERIAL STATEMENT Effect of Airline Pilots Dispute on Tourism Industry Hon. V. P. LESTER (Peak Downs—Minister for Employment, Training and Indus­ trial Affairs) (10.11 a.m.), by leave: Late yesterday, my colleague the Honourable the Minister for Police, Emergency Services and Tourism and I met with senior represen­ tatives of the Queensland business community and leaders from the tourism industry to discuss the catastrophic effects of the ongoing airline pilots dispute and to take action. Mr Casey: Are you going to leam to fly? Mr LESTER: Why don't Opposition members just listen? That shows how inept the Labor Party is. As a consequence of that meeting, today the Queensland Govemment will approach the Federal Industrial Relations Commission to request it to force a meeting between the pilots and the airlines in an attempt to find a solution to this awfiil problem. Representatives from the Queensland Confederation of Industry, the Metal Trades Association, the State Chamber of Commerce and Industry, retailer groups, the Queens­ land Government, the Federation of Travel Agents, Qintex, the Queensland Tourist and Travel Corporation, major intemational hotels and the Gold Coast Visitors and Con­ vention Bureau have fully supported the Queensland Govemment's taking a stand against the industrial lawlessness of the airline pilots and the crippling effect that their action is having on the economy. Queensland is more susceptible than any other State to this type of industrial blackmail as our State is Australia's leader in tourism. The Queensland Government just cannot stand back and let it all go on. The Australian Tourist Industry Association has already begun implementing plans to appoint an independent mediator whom both parties can approach confidentially il the Federal commission continues to refuse to settle this dispute. At present, Australia is in an awful position because it has a Federal Industrial Relations Commission, which is funded by tax-payers' money, sitting back and doing nothing. The people in the tourism industry have had to find their own mediator. That is not on, and it should not happen. However, I make it very clear that, if it must happen, the Queensland Government will back those people to the hilt. The settiement of the airline pilots dispute is, without a doubt, a Federal problem. The onus is on the Federal Government and its instrumentalities to find a solution to it. But, for all his rhetoric, the Prime Minister has refused to bite the bullet and take hard action against the strikers. It is a good thing that Bob Hawke was not the one who had to solve the SEQEB dispute in 1985.

Download date: 25 Sep 2021 WALTER CAMPBELL: A DISTINGUISHED LIFE BY GEOFF BARLOW AND JF CORKERY This is the third of three articles1 on the life and work of Sir Walter Campbell, Queensland jurist and Governor. This article examines Walter Campbell’s family background, his education, marriage, air force days, his experiences as Governor and his wide-ranging interests. It concludes with an assessment of the impact of his multi- faceted life. Sir Walter Campbell is well remembered for his term as the Governor of Queensland, particularly for his deft and effective handling of the state’s 1987 constitutional crisis, when Premier Sir Joh Bjelke-Petersen refused to resign after losing the support of his party. Campbell’s career, however, intersected with a range of historical events, including political, legal, constitutional, diplomatic and even military incidents of significance to the nation.

    The History of the Queensland Parliament, 1957–1989

    14 . The demise of the Coalition and the Nationals governing alone, 1981–1983 In 1980, backroom plans had been already entertained for a stand-alone National Party government supplemented by a few Liberal ‘ministerialists’— opportunists who would cross over and side with whatever the next ministry turned out to be in order to remain part of the next government. Historically, ‘ministerialists’ were typically senior parliamentarians who, forgoing party loyalties, decided to collaborate as individuals in the formulation of a new government. After the 1980 election, however, any such musing was put on hold as the two conservative parties lapsed back into coalition. This time, the Nationals clearly imposed their dominance, taking the prime portfolios and consigning the ‘leftovers’ to the Liberals. Labor began to refer to the junior partners as ‘Dr Edwards and his shattered Liberal team’—the losers who were ‘now completely the captive of the National Party’ (QPD 1981:vol. 283, p. 7). Despite his vitriolic attacks against the Premier and the National-led government, Llew Edwards retained his position as Deputy Premier and Treasurer—positions he would keep until he was deposed by Terry White on the eve of the Coalition collapse in August 1983, although there was an unsuccessful attempt by dissident Liberals to remove Edwards in November 1981. When the Premier learned about the dissident Liberal plan to topple Edwards, with Angus Innes taking the lead, he declared Innes an ‘anti-coalitionist’ and someone with whom he would not work. Instead, Bjelke-Petersen began hatching plans to form a minority government with whomsoever among the Liberals who would give him support; and then to govern alone until mid-1982.
