  • SIR HENRY NEWMAN BARWELL PRG 562 Series List ______
    __________________________________________________________________________ SIR HENRY NEWMAN BARWELL PRG 562 Series List _________________________________________________________________________ Henry Newman Barwell (1877-1959) was educated at St. Peters College and the University of Adelaide from where he graduated in Law in 1898. In 1915 he entered the House of Assembly as the member for Stanley. When the Vaughan Labor ministry resigned in 1917 following the split over conscription, Barwell became attorney general and minister of industry in Peake's Liberal-National coalition government (1). After the death of Peake in 1920 Barwell took over as premier and immediately set about reforming the administration of the State public service. Among his most notable achievements were the overhaul of the State's railway system and the promotion the so- called 'Barwell Boys' immigration scheme, through which youths were brought to South Australia and indentured to farmers (2). However, he became the focus of much public controversy over his attempts to abolish the State arbitration system and ill-conceived statements about introducing coloured-labour into the Northern Territory. He fell afoul of the influential temperance lobby, while his appointment of the American W.A. Webb as Railway Commissioner caused some disquiet after it was revealed that railway contracts were being awarded to American firms. Following the defeat of his government at the elections of 1924, Barwell entered Federal politics as a Liberal senator where he proved 'an uncompromising defender of the rights of small States' (3). In 1928, his relations with the Prime Minister S.M. Bruce having soured, Barwell resigned to become South Australia's Agent-general in London where he stayed until 1940 (4).

    THE DE-COLONISATION OF THE AUSTRALIAN STATES by ANNE TWOMEY A THESIS SUBMITTED FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF NEW SOUTH WALES APRIL 2006 2 ABSTRACT This thesis examines the status of the Queen in Australia in relation to the Australian States and the effect upon it of the enactment of the Australia Acts 1986. It uses hitherto confidential government documents to expose the true relationship between the United Kingdom, the Crown and the States and challenge prevailing assumptions. The thesis establishes that before 1986 the United Kingdom played a substantive, rather than a merely formal, role in the constitutional relationship between the States and the Crown. The ‘Queen of Australia’ was confined in her role to Commonwealth, not State, matters. The ‘Queen of the United Kingdom’ continued to perform constitutional functions with respect to the States, which were regarded as dependencies of the British Crown. This position changed with the enactment of the Australia Acts 1986 (Cth) and (UK). This thesis analyses the Australia Acts, assesses the validity of their provisions and contends that the Australia Act 1986 (UK) was necessary for legal and political reasons. The thesis concludes that the Australia Acts, in terminating the residual sovereignty of the Westminster Parliament with respect to Australia, transferred sovereignty collectively to the components of the federal parliamentary democratic system. Consistent with this view, it is contended that the effect of the Australia Acts was to establish a hybrid federal Crown of Australia under which the Queen’s Ministers for each constituent polity within the federation can advise her upon her constitutional functions with respect to that polity.
