  • The Roles of Independent Legislative Fiscal Institutions: a Multidisciplinary Analysis
    The Roles of Independent Legislative Fiscal Institutions: a Multidisciplinary Analysis USMAN WAQQAS CHOHAN A THESIS IN FULFILMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY AT THE UNIVERSITY OF NEW SOUTH WALES, CANBERRA SCHOOL OF BUSINESS AUGUST 2018 1 This page is intentionally left blank. 2 Surname/Family Name : CHOHAN Given Name/s : USMAN WAQQAS Abbreviation for degree as give in the University calendar : PHD Faculty : UNSW CANBERRA School : SCHOOL OF ECONOMICS THE ROLES OF INDEPENDENT LEGISLATIVE FISCAL INSTITUTIONS: A Thesis Title : MULTIDISCIPLINARY ANALYSIS Abstract 350 words maximum: (PLEASE TYPE) This thesis approaches the question of the roles that can be fulfilled by Independent Legislative Fiscal Institutions, and it does so in a multidisciplinary manner, through six independent but logically-connected research papers. Independent Legislative Fiscal Institutions (IFIs) represent an institution of ever greater practitioner and academic interest, but a fuller understanding of their roles, and therefore their purpose, is left wanting due to the dispersion of analysis surrounding them across three separate literatures: economics, political science, and governance. Each literature approaches the question of the roles of IFIs in a tangential manner as part of some broader inquiry, and they provide rationales for these fiscal institutions steeped in arguments specific to these literatures. However, there is still a need to validate those literature-specific arguments through further evidence; and the claim that drives this thesis is that, only through a fuller and multidisciplinary synthesis of these literatures, along with the incorporation of a new literature (public administration), can progress be made in contextualizing the roles of IFIs in a comprehensive manner.

  • Canberra 26 2015 WOMEN in DIPLOMACY Intervention by HE
    Canberra 26 2015 WOMEN IN DIPLOMACY Intervention by HE The Ambassador of Colombia Clemencia Forero Ucros The Honourable Penelope Wensley Dr Fiona Jenkins Professor Ingrid Moses HE Mrs Annemieke Ruigrok, Ambassador of the Netherlands HE Mrs Naela Chohan, High Commissioner for Pakistan Dear Friends, I wish to thank the Australian Institute of International Affairs for organising this event in association with the Australian National University Gender Institute. It is indeed a great privilege for me to participate in this Panel discussion and to share with you the changes that have taken place and the achievements obtained to advance the situation of women and particularly women diplomats in my country, Colombia. The Foreign Service was established in 1901 and the first regulations for its functioning were implemented in 1923. By those times, Diplomacy and the Foreign Service were totally dominated by men. And also by the upper classes of the Colombian society. Women could not undertake university studies. They were entirely dedicated to the family and the household. Nobody even dared to question this universal accepted pattern. In 1934 women were granted access to the University in the same conditions as men. This was a great revolutionary change for those times. In 1935 for the first time a woman entered the Faculty of Medicine to become a medical doctor and in 1936 the first woman student joined the Faculty of Law. Women in Colombia obtained the right to vote in 1954 and effectively voted for the first time in 1958. The first lady to be appointed as Minister was Josefina Valencia, who occupied the position of Minister of Education from 1956 to 1957.

National Register of Citizens and Citizenship Amendment Act are all meant to isolate the Muslims who are around 15 per cent of the Indian population. While addressing the seminar, Senator Shibli Faraz stated Modi’s Hindutva ideology is transitioning India to the biggest fascist regime of the world for it is based on discrimination, hatred, and superiority.
