    Ap2 Final 16.2.17

    PALASZCZUK’S SECOND YEAR AN OVERVIEW OF 2016 ANN SCOTT HOWARD GUILLE ROGER SCOTT with cartoons by SEAN LEAHY Foreword This publication1 is the fifth in a series of Queensland political chronicles published by the TJRyan Foundation since 2012. The first two focussed on Parliament.2 They were written after the Liberal National Party had won a landslide victory and the Australian Labor Party was left with a tiny minority, led by Annastacia Palaszczuk. The third, Queensland 2014: Political Battleground,3 published in January 2015, was completed shortly before the LNP lost office in January 2015. In it we used military metaphors and the language which typified the final year of the Newman Government. The fourth, Palaszczuk’s First Year: a Political Juggling Act,4 covered the first year of the ALP minority government. The book had a cartoon by Sean Leahy on its cover which used circus metaphors to portray 2015 as a year of political balancing acts. It focussed on a single year, starting with the accession to power of the Palaszczuk Government in mid-February 2015. Given the parochial focus of our books we draw on a limited range of sources. The TJRyan Foundation website provides a repository for online sources including our own Research Reports on a range of Queensland policy areas, and papers catalogued by policy topic, as well as Queensland political history.5 A number of these reports give the historical background to the current study, particularly the anthology of contributions The Newman Years: Rise, Decline and Fall.6 Electronic links have been provided to open online sources, notably the ABC News, Brisbane Times, The Guardian, and The Conversation.

VICKI GORDON We’re proud that Queensland is the inaugural home to this phenomenal program. The Queensland Government is committed to promoting the work of women in all fields, including the arts, and positions of leadership. We have pledged to appoint 50 per cent women to government boards by 2020, because we know that companies This evening we will make Australian music history. that appoint more women do better. The inaugural Australian Women in Music Awards is the result of many Australian women contribute a great deal to the country’s contemporary music industry, and yet only one in five voices and many visions coming together, all of whom refuse to allow registered songwriters and composers in our nation are women. Women also represent almost half of all Australians women’s contribution in the Australian Music Industry to be sidelined with a music qualification, and yet hold only one in four senior roles in our key music industry organisations.

SM FENTIMAN (Waterford—ALP) (Minister for Communities, Women and Youth, Minister for Child Safety and Minister for Multicultural Affairs) (3.02 pm): I rise to speak in support of the motion as moved. I acknowledge the traditional owners of the land and pay my respects to elders past, present and future. I congratulate all members of the House sitting here today. We are here not only as representatives of our communities but also as custodians of the enduring democratic tradition. We must uphold it, respect it and protect it. I stand here as a new Labor member of parliament and a member of the next generation of the Labor movement. I am humbled by my new role as Minister for Communities, Women and Youth, Minister for Child Safety and Minister for Multicultural Affairs. It is both an honour and a tremendous responsibility. I look forward to the challenges ahead and am gripped by a sense of great potential. I would like to give particular thanks to our Premier, Annastacia Palaszczuk, for placing her trust in me. I would also like to extend my gratitude to our Deputy Premier, Jackie Trad, for her friendship, mentorship and support over many years, as well as to Minister Kate Jones for her friendship and invaluable advice. I am proud to be in a cabinet with such strong and intelligent women. I am also extremely proud to be the member for Waterford. The people of Waterford and Logan are the reason I am here, and I am honoured to be representing our community, which is strong, diverse and resilient.
