  • Highways Byways
    Highways AND Byways THE ORIGIN OF TOWNSVILLE STREET NAMES Compiled by John Mathew Townsville Library Service 1995 Revised edition 2008 Acknowledgements Australian War Memorial John Oxley Library Queensland Archives Lands Department James Cook University Library Family History Library Townsville City Council, Planning and Development Services Front Cover Photograph Queensland 1897. Flinders Street Townsville Local History Collection, Citilibraries Townsville Copyright Townsville Library Service 2008 ISBN 0 9578987 54 Page 2 Introduction How many visitors to our City have seen a street sign bearing their family name and wondered who the street was named after? How many students have come to the Library seeking the origin of their street or suburb name? We at the Townsville Library Service were not always able to find the answers and so the idea for Highways and Byways was born. Mr. John Mathew, local historian, retired Town Planner and long time Library supporter, was pressed into service to carry out the research. Since 1988 he has been steadily following leads, discarding red herrings and confirming how our streets got their names. Some remain a mystery and we would love to hear from anyone who has information to share. Where did your street get its name? Originally streets were named by the Council to honour a public figure. As the City grew, street names were and are proposed by developers, checked for duplication and approved by Department of Planning and Development Services. Many suburbs have a theme. For example the City and North Ward areas celebrate famous explorers. The streets of Hyde Park and part of Gulliver are named after London streets and English cities and counties.

  • Analysis Survey of the Powers
    ANALYSIS SURVEY OF THE POWERS RETURNING FROM THE EU THAT INTERSECT WITH THE DEVOLUTION SETTLEMENT IN SCOTLAND 1 CONTENTS INTRODUCTION 3 AGRICULTURE 10 TRANSPORT 24 JUSTICE 28 ENVIRONMENT 60 ENERGY 91 HEALTH 96 EDUCATION 103 MISCELLANEOUS 104 LIST OF ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS 111 ANNEX – FOOD AND FEED LAW ANALYSIS PAPER 113 2 INTRODUCTION The UK’s exit from the EU is arguably the most significant constitutional development to affect the UK since 1945. Other changes including accession to the European Economic Community in 1972, the development of devolution to Scotland, Northern Ireland and Wales in the 1990s, the adoption of the Human Rights Act in 1998 and the creation of the Supreme Court in 2005 were important constitutional changes most of which affected the lives of many millions of people living across the UK. However the UK’s exit from the EU has so many significant aspects including economic, financial, legal, social, and cultural, which will affect many people living in the EU in some ways which are known and understood and in other ways which are currently unpredictable. Development of legislatures in the UK The Parliament of the United Kingdom is the product of the Acts of Union of 1706 and 1707. These united the Parliaments of the kingdoms of England (of which Wales was then part) and Scotland into the Parliament of the kingdom of Great Britain. There were then the Acts of Union of 1800 which united the Parliaments of Great Britain and Ireland into the Parliament of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland. After the creation of the Irish state in 1922, it became the Parliament of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.
