    9 Apr 2002 Legislative Assembly 639 TUESDAY, 9 APRIL 2002 Mr SPEAKER (Hon. R. K. Hollis, Redcliffe) read prayers and took the chair at 9.30 a.m. PRIVILEGE Berri Ltd Mr SEENEY (Callide—NPA) (9.31 a.m.): On Monday, 11 March a number of media outlets carried reports claiming that I had lied to this parliament when I asked a question of the Minister for State Development on 8 March. This is a very serious accusation and it has been repeated a number of times by both the Premier and the Deputy Premier. The claim is demonstrably wrong. I did not lie to this parliament, nor did I mislead this parliament on 8 March or at any other time. The question that I asked referred to concerns that had been raised with me by a constituent relating to state government grants. Mr Speaker, I wish to table some documents pertaining to that issue. I table a copy of a telephone log from 8 August last year from my electorate office and a copy of my diary from 9 August last year, both of which record the initial contact that I had on this issue with my constituent. One is in my secretary's handwriting and one is in mine. Mr Speaker, I also table a document supplied by the Australian Securities and Investments Commission which is a current and historical search on Berri New South Wales Ltd, the corporate entity which received the grant. Under sections 168 to 171 of the Corporations Act, Berri Ltd has a statutory responsibility to ensure that this public record is correct.

  • 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.

  • The History of the Queensland Parliament, 1957–1989
    15 . The implosion of Joh Bjelke- Petersen, 1983–1987 The 1983 election ended the ‘constitutional crisis’ by providing the Nationals with exactly half the seats in the Parliament (41) and the opportunity to supplement their ministry with Liberal ministerialists who would agree to join the new government. The Premier had a number of options to secure his majority. Many of the surviving former Liberal ministers were not generally regarded as ‘anti-coalitionists’ in the previous government. The six potential ministerialists who might have been persuaded to change allegiances were: Norm Lee, Bill Lickiss, Brian Austin, Don Lane, Colin Miller and even Bill Knox. According to the Courier-Mail (15 July 1983), when two Coalition backbenchers, Bill Kaus and Bob Moore, had quit the Liberals and joined the Nationals in July, two Liberal ministers, Norm Lee and Bill Lickiss, already had indicated they would consider jumping ship. It was almost as if a race to defect was on. The two other Liberals to survive the 1983 poll, Terry White and Angus Innes, would not have been acceptable to the Premier and his senior ministers. In total, six of the eight Liberals had been ministers (although Miller had served for just 13 days after White was sacked and before the resignations of all the Liberals were accepted). Knox had been a minister since 1965 and Lee and Lickiss had been ministers since early 1975. They had some pedigree. Austin and Lane (and White) each had one parliamentary term as minister. Two Liberals, however, took the issue into their own hands. The day after the election, Austin and Lane had discussed the prospects of defecting and swapping parties, with Austin saying ‘I’m sick of this…I reckon we ought to give ’em the arse.

AHERN (Landsborough—Premier and Treasurer and Minister for the Arts) (10.01 a.m.), by leave, without notice: I move— "I. That this House desires to place on record its appreciation of the services rendered to this State by the late Robert Levi Windsor, a former member of the ParUament of Queensland. 2. That Mr Speaker be requested to convey to the widow and family of the deceased gentleman the above resolution, together with an expression of the sympathy and sorrow of the members of the Parliament of Queensland in the loss they have sustained." Robert Levi Windsor served the people of Queensland as a member of this House for nine years, first as the Liberal member for Fortitude Valley and then, following the abolition of that seat, as the member for Ithaca from 1960 until his retirement in 1966. He entered Parliament after great political excitement and upheaval in Queensland which saw a strong swing from Labor to the conservative style of govemment that we enjoy today. Of his political contemporaries, only the honourable members for Nundah, Sir WiUiam Knox, Yeronga, Norm Lee, and Moggill, Bill Lickiss, remain in Pariiament. They knew Bob Windsor very well. Bob Windsor has left behind him a reputation for honesty and concern for his fellow Queenslanders that marked his entire career.
