  • A Critical Analysis of the Purposes of the Queensland Police Move-On Powers
    The reasons and the reality: A critical analysis of the purposes of the Queensland police move-on powers Megan McKay Bachelor of Arts Humanities Program Queensland University of Technology This thesis is submitted in partial fulfilment of the degree of Bachelor of Arts (Honours) 2008 “The legislation spells out clearly what it [the Queensland police move-on powers] is to be used for. We are not singling out any particular group” – The Honourable Theo Cooper (then Minister for Police and Corrective Services and Minister for Racing) (Queensland Parliament, 1997c, p. 4393). “Move-on powers are not focused on any particular age group, sex, colour or race within the community. They only come into play when a person acts in a manner contrary to public interest as determined by this parliament” – The Honourable Judy Spence (then Minister for Police and Corrective Services) (Queensland Parliament, 2006d, p. 1814). Interviewer: …You’ve already kind of said young people may be being disproportionately targeted using the powers – do you feel there are any other demographic groups that may be… Jordan: Yeah. Interviewer: …targeted? Jordan: Well, Indigenous people, obviously, and people with mental illness. Ah, they’re the, the main one and, y’ know, homeless people. Megan McKay 04404254 ii Note Where reference is made in this thesis to a piece of legislation or policy that is currently in force, the version of the piece of the legislation or policy referred to is that which was in force as on October 9, 2008. Amendments to these legislative acts and policies, including their repeal, may have been made subsequent to this date.

  • Resisting Executive Control in Queensland's Unicameral Legislature
    Dr Kate Jones and Professor Scott Prasser are with the Public Policy Institute, Australian Catholic University Resisting executive control in Queensland’s unicameral legislature — recent developments and the changing role of the speaker in Queensland Kate Jones and Scott Prasser Queensland has long been criticised for the limitations of its parliamentary system and its excessive dominance by executive government. The 1989 Fitzgerald Commission of Inquiry into Possible Illegal Activities and Associated Police Misconduct (henceforth called the Fitzgerald Inquiry), pinpointed Queensland’s system of government and particularly its weak parliamentary system as one of the main causes for the State’s endemic corruption. As the Fitzgerald Report (1989: 123) lamented: Any government may use its dominance in the Parliament and its control of public resources to stifle and neuter effective criticism by the Opposition … A government can use its control of Parliament and public administration to manipulate, exploit and misinform the community, or to hide matters from it. According to Fitzgerald (1989: 123–5) debate was stifled, parliamentary sitting days too few, the Opposition restrained, question-time redundant and the committee system minimalist. Also, the Speaker of Parliament, the supposed independent chair, was perceived as too partisan, one of the prizes bestowed on party stalwarts by executive government (Fitzgerald 1989: 123). While these criticisms were legitimately aimed at Queensland’s National Party government (1983–89), they applied equally to previous Coalition (1957–1983) and Labor administrations (1915–1929; 1932–1957). Strong executive control of parliament was a Queensland tradition. Although not too different from other states, the problem was exacerbated by Queensland’s lack of an upper house — abolished by Labor in 1922 despite a referendum to the contrary.

  • The Role of Queensland Shelter. Maree Janine Stanley BA, Cert. Ed
    From Pressure to Participation: The Role of Queensland Shelter. Maree Janine Stanley BA, Cert. Ed, MGPP A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at The University of Queensland in 2015 School of Historical & Philosophical Inquiry Abstract Political support for the inclusion of social policy advocacy groups in the development of public policy is underpinned by a broad belief in the right of citizens to participate in or at least contribute to government decision making. Governments and state agencies consult widely on social issues when they see accountability and transparency as politically attractive, a form of both useful advice and risk management. While scholars have theorised on the benefits of non-state participation, empirical research on the role of policy advocacy groups in the development of Australian public policy is limited. This thesis examines the role of Queensland Shelter Inc., a state based social housing policy peak, in the development of Queensland social housing policy (1987-2012). While consultation processes are open and inclusive of a wide range of stakeholders, participation remains restricted to a select few. Why are some interest groups able to directly participate in the development of public policy while others are only consulted or even ignored? The influence of Queensland Shelter over housing policy has fluctuated over its twenty-five year history. Three factors were examined in relation to this oscillation: the organisational capacity of Queensland Shelter, the willingness of the housing ministry to engage and the broader political context. While the main focus of the study is to assess and analyse shifts in the relationship between Queensland Shelter and the state housing ministry, attention is also given to the connections between Queensland Shelter and other stakeholders, including the bureaucracy, other policy advocacy groups and the Australian federal government.
