  • Papers on Parliament No. 17
    Housekeeping the State Women and Parliamentary Politics in Australia Marian Sawer I have taken the title for today's lecture, 'Housekeeping the State', from Catherine Spence, whose photograph appears in the 'Trust The Women' exhibition curated by Ann Millar and currently on view in Parliament House. I shall begin with a sketch of Catherine Spence, based on the biographical work done by Susan Magarey, as an introduction to today's theme. Spence arrived in South Australia from Melrose in Scotland in 1839 when she was fourteen years old. A year later she witnessed what is believed to have been the first public election in the world conducted using proportional representation (PR) - an election for the Adelaide Municipal Corporation.1 Spence's father had become Clerk to the Corporation and she later recalled in her autobiography how he had explained to her the bearings of this unique system for minority representation. Later again she became Australia's most active advocate of PR, promoting the ideas of Thomas Hare and John Stuart Mill on the subject and visiting them in London together with Rowland Hill, who had been responsible for the use of PR in Adelaide back in 1840. They enthusiastically endorsed the pamphlet she had prepared, A Plea for Pure Democracy, which was designed to popularise this election method. By the 1850s, after a period working as a governess and teacher, Spence had become a writer, publishing (anonymously) novels such as Clara Morison. A later novel, Handfasted, was submitted for a prize offered by the Sydney Mail but rejected as 'calculated to loosen the marriage tie'.

Conclusion 247 Bibliography 251 Appendices 260 i Abstract While all houses of Australian parliaments using proportional representation use the Single Transferable Vote arrangement, district magnitudes (the numbers of members elected per division) and requirements for casting a formal vote vary considerably. Early chapters of this thesis analyse election results in search for distinct patterns of proportionality, the numbers of effective parties and partisan advantage under different conditions. This thesis argues that while district magnitude remains the decisive factor in determining proportionality (the higher the magnitude, the more proportional the system), ballot paper numbering requirements play a more important role in determining the number of (especially) parliamentary parties. The general pattern is that, somewhat paradoxically, the more freedom voters have to choose their own preference allocations, or lack of them, the smaller the number of parliamentary parties. Even numbered magnitudes in general, and six member divisions in particular, provide some advantage to the Liberal and National Parties, while the Greens are disadvantaged in five member divisions as compared to six or seven member divisions.

  • Community Development Division Department of Premier and Cabinet MESSAGE from the PREMIER
    2009 Community Development Division Department of Premier and Cabinet MESSAGE FROM THE PREMIER It is with great pleasure that I present the biographies of the women selected for inclusion on the 2009 Tasmanian Honour Roll of Women. The life stories of these women are inspirational. They have made a real difference in the lives of others and have assisted in building a culture of social inclusion. Their diverse stories reveal an impressive range of contributions to the Tasmanian community. Some of these women are quiet achievers, who have worked tirelessly for their local communities. Other women have made contributions at a level of state, national and international significance. The Honour Roll salutes women who have contributed so much to our wonderful community, from all walks of life and fields of endeavour, from humanitarian pursuits and community service, to business, science and the environment. The members of the Honour Roll have set a precedent that will continue to inspire all members of the Tasmanian community. Through this public recognition, we can share their stories and celebrate their achievements now and in the future. I commend these biographies to you and I’m left in no doubt that you will feel as inspired as I was when reading about the lives of these remarkable Tasmanian women.

Neil Savery Delegate of the Minister Dated this4th day of May 2004. Page 1 of 6 PN 2004-08 Authorised by the ACT Parliamentary Counsel—also accessible at www.legislation.act.gov.au SCHEDULE Public Place Names (Watson) Determination2004 (No 1) Division of Watson: Judges and the legal profession NAME ORIGIN SIGNIFICANCE Ada Evans Ada Emily Australian Barrister Street Evans Ada Evans was born in Wanstead, Essex in England and (1872-1947) migrated to Sydney, New South Wales in 1883. Ada graduated as a Bachelor of Arts from Sydney University in 1895 and a Bachelor of Laws in 1902 from the same University. The Dean of the Faculty of Law in the late 1880's was away on Sabbatical leave when Ada enrolled at the Law school. On his return, he was reported to have said that her stature was not appropriate for the profession of law but more appropriate for the profession of medicine. Nevertheless, she completed her course in 1902. It was not possible for her to be admitted to the Bar at that stage, as there was no precedent either in England or Australia for a woman to be admitted to the Bar. To be admitted, she had to be a "person" and this definition did not include women.
