Working Paper 04/2018
Working Paper 04/2018 The geography of Australia’s Marriage Law Postal Survey outcome Tom Wilson Northern Institute, Charles Darwin University Fiona Shalley Northern Institute, Charles Darwin University Francisco Perales Institute for Social Science Research, The University of Queensland ISSN 2207-3388 Abstract After years of public debate about same-sex marriage, the Australian Government put the issue to the electorate in the ‘Australian Marriage Law Postal Survey’ in late 2017. The survey asked voters whether the law should be changed to allow same-sex couples to marry. Nationally, 61.6% of voters responded ‘Yes’. But there were marked variations by electoral division, with the proportion of ‘Yes’ votes varying from 26.1% to 83.7%.The aim of this paper is to explore the geographical pattern of the percentage of voters responding ‘Yes’ by federal electoral division and identify its correlates. Results of the survey by federal electoral division were obtained from the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS); other variables for electoral divisions were obtained from the ABS and the Australian Electoral Commission. Multiple linear regression and geographically weighted regression were employed to establish the relationship between the percentage of ‘Yes’ responses at the electoral-division level and the characteristics of electoral divisions’ populations. In 133 of 150 electoral divisions there was a majority of ‘Yes’ responses. Strong predictor variables of the percentage ‘Yes’ vote included the proportions of: the population describing themselves as having no religion, those with post-school educational qualifications, those with a birthplace in Oceania, Europe or the Americas, and those who did not vote for conservative parties in the 2016 federal election. -
Office of Profit Under the Crown
RESEARCH PAPER SERIES, 2017–18 14 JUNE 2018 Office of profit under the Crown Professor Anne Twomey, University of Sydney Law School Executive summary • Section 44(iv) of the Constitution provides that a person is incapable of being chosen as a Member of Parliament if he or she holds an ‘office of profit under the Crown’. This is also a ground for disqualification from office for existing members and senators under section 45. There has been considerable uncertainty about what is meant by holding an office of profit under the Crown. • First the person must hold an ‘office’. This is a position to which duties attach of a work-like nature. It is usually, but not always the case, that the office continues to exist independently of the person who holds it. However, a person on the ‘unattached’ list of the public service still holds an office. • Second, it must be an ‘office of profit’. This means that some form of ‘profit’ or remuneration must attach to the office, regardless of whether or not that profit is transferred to the office- holder. Reimbursement of actual expenses does not amount to ‘profit’, but a public servant who is on leave without pay or an office-holder who declines to accept a salary or allowances still holds an office of profit. The source of the profit does not matter. Even if it comes from fees paid by members of the public or other private sources, as long as the profit is attached to the office, that is sufficient. • Third, the office of profit must be ‘under the Crown’. -
