  • Submission to the Senate Select Committee Into the Political Influence of Donations
    Submission to the Senate Select Committee into the Political Influence of Donations Dr Charles Livingstone & Ms Maggie Johnson Gambling and Social Determinants Unit School of Public Health and Preventive Medicine Monash University 9 October 2017 1 Introduction Gambling in Australia is a prime cause of avoidable harm, with the harms of gambling estimated to be of the same order of magnitude as alcohol, and far higher than that associated with illicit drug consumption. (Browne et al, 2016; 2017). The gambling industry is a major donor to Australian political parties and politicians and appears to hold considerable cachet with many political actors, at both federal and state level. In this, it appears to be similar to other industries that produce harmful products, such as alcohol and tobacco. Its purpose in donating to political parties and politicians is similar; it seeks to deny the harmful effects of its products, delay or wind back reform, avoid effective regulation, and continue to extract profits for as long as possible. a) The level of influence that political donations exert over the public policy decisions of political parties, Members of Parliament and Government administration; The Australian gambling industry has utilised political donations as a mechanism to exert considerable influence over relevant public policy. This has been facilitated by the current donations regime, which has numerous flaws from the perspective of transparency and support for policy that acts in the genuine interest of the public. The industry is both significantly resourced and politically organised, and has actively sought opportunities for political engagement via donations to politicians and political parties.

  • Analysis of AEC Donation Data 1998-1999 to 2014-2015 Gambling Industry Interests
    Analysis of AEC donation data 1998-1999 to 2014-2015 Gambling industry interests Interim report 2 – Australian Hotels Association – Federal and State affiliates Dr Charles Livingstone and Ms Maggie Johnson School of Public Health and Preventive Medicine Monash University Introduction and disclosure In Australia, donors to political parties or associated entities are required to disclose donations above a particular threshold. The current threshold is set at $13,000 and is the subject of annual indexation linked to CPI. There has been continuing controversy in relation to the current system of disclosing donations, including the relatively high threshold and the significant delay in publication of the data, use of associated entities to avoid clear disclosure, and inappropriate use of taxpayer funded resources to facilitate fundraising (see, for example a recent episode of Four Corners, and Fairfax media articles on the Liberal Party linked Millennium Forum and fundraising activity in the Victorian electorate of Menzies). However, some data are published on the Internet by the Australian Electoral Commission (AEC) on an annual basis. These data have the potential to provide information about the financial influence exerted on policy and politicians by corporate and other vested interests. All data referred to in this report are sourced from the AEC unless otherwise specified. The research reported in this interim report is intended to provide information to the Alliance for Gambling Reform (which commissioned and funded the research), and to support the preparation of research papers as a component of an Australian Research Council (ARC) Linkage Project (LP130100046) in which the author is a Chief Investigator.

  • Submission to the Senate Legal and Constitutional Affairs Committee on The
    QUEENSLAND COUNCIL FOR CIVIL LIBERTIES Submission to the Senate Legal and Constitutional Affairs Committee on the Regulator of Medicinal Cannabis Bill 2014 The Committee Secretary Senate Legal and Constitutional Affairs Committee PO Box 6100 Parliament House Canberra ACT 2600 Phone: +61 2 6277 3560 Fax: +61 2 6277 5794 [email protected] Thank you for the invitation to make a submission on the Regulator of Medicinal Cannabis Bill 2014. The Queensland Council for Civil Liberties has had a long-standing interest in cannabis issues, including in-principle support for the legalisation of medicinal cannabis. INTRODUCTION About the QCCL The QCCL is a voluntary organisation established in 1967 to promote civil liberties. QCCL and Cannabis QCCL has twice made formal submissions to the Queensland Parliament advocating cannabis legalisation, in November 1993 (written by Peter Applegarth) and April 2010 (by me). I made an additional personal submission to the 1993 inquiry. In addition, I was a co-author with Ian Dearden and Narelle Sutherland of a short article on Queensland drug law reform published in an issue of the Legal Services Bulletin in 1991. All with no result. Both 1993 submissions made passing reference to the likely benefits of medicinal cannabis, but are otherwise tangential to this submission. It is agreed that the legalisation of medicinal cannabis needs to be explicitly quarantined from considerations surrounding legalising recreational marijuana. Personal Disclosure When my partner was dying from metastatic breast cancer in 2002-2004, she discovered that smoking cannabis—via a water bong—was the only effective and immediate-acting remedy for her chemotherapy- and radiotherapy-induced nausea.

  • Macquarie St Politics: Death by Disunity
    Macquarie St politics: Death by disunity The Daily Telegraph September 28, 2016 Andrew Clennell NATIONALS IN REVOLT AS MINISTERS PRESSURE BAIRD BACK when Barry O‟Farrell was opposition leader, he took the politically opportunistic decision to block Morris Iemma‟s electricity privatisation. Apart from the chance to thoroughly stuff up a premier (successfully, as it turned out), there was another reason O‟Farrell went for the move. He did not want to split with the Nats. O‟Farrell knew the importance of not having the Nationals and Liberals divided. Ironically, once premier, O‟Farrell took a similar proposal to his party and then the Parliament. It won in the Nationals party room by one vote. Former deputy premier Andrew Stoner‟s enduring legacy is that he kept the Nationals together. Troy Grant is not having quite the same success when it comes to greyhounds. Nationals leader Troy Grant NSW Premier Mike Baird. One big problem is that, as Racing Minister, it was he who took the minute to cabinet recommending the greyhound industry be banned. As story after story appears of Grant possibly resigning if the party loses the Orange by-election; of Nationals speaking out against the greyhound racing ban, and the fact that three MPs crossed the floor and two of them were later sacked as parliamentary secretaries, the sense is created of a divided government lacking discipline. It reminds me of 2008 when Labor fell apart over electricity privatisation. In such circumstances, pressure just builds and, sooner or later, something has to give. And just as O‟Farrell was going against his business base to take advantage of the Iemma government division over electricity, Opposition Leader Luke Foley is preparing to cash in on moving against the inner-city Left to cause dramas for this premier over greyhounds.
