  • Ap2 Final 16.2.17
    PALASZCZUK’S SECOND YEAR AN OVERVIEW OF 2016 ANN SCOTT HOWARD GUILLE ROGER SCOTT with cartoons by SEAN LEAHY Foreword This publication1 is the fifth in a series of Queensland political chronicles published by the TJRyan Foundation since 2012. The first two focussed on Parliament.2 They were written after the Liberal National Party had won a landslide victory and the Australian Labor Party was left with a tiny minority, led by Annastacia Palaszczuk. The third, Queensland 2014: Political Battleground,3 published in January 2015, was completed shortly before the LNP lost office in January 2015. In it we used military metaphors and the language which typified the final year of the Newman Government. The fourth, Palaszczuk’s First Year: a Political Juggling Act,4 covered the first year of the ALP minority government. The book had a cartoon by Sean Leahy on its cover which used circus metaphors to portray 2015 as a year of political balancing acts. It focussed on a single year, starting with the accession to power of the Palaszczuk Government in mid-February 2015. Given the parochial focus of our books we draw on a limited range of sources. The TJRyan Foundation website provides a repository for online sources including our own Research Reports on a range of Queensland policy areas, and papers catalogued by policy topic, as well as Queensland political history.5 A number of these reports give the historical background to the current study, particularly the anthology of contributions The Newman Years: Rise, Decline and Fall.6 Electronic links have been provided to open online sources, notably the ABC News, Brisbane Times, The Guardian, and The Conversation.

  • A Year in Review for the PERIOD 1 July 2015 – 30 JUNE 2016
    2015-16: A year in review FOR THE PERIOD 1 JULY 2015 – 30 JUNE 2016 Report OF THE QUEENSLAND NURSES’ UNION OF EMployees AND Australian NURSING AND MIDWIFERY Federation (QNU BRANCH) 35th ANNUAL CONFERENCE 13-15 JULY 2016 BRISBANE CONVENTION AND EXHIBITION CENTRE Introduction It’s quite surprising when you begin to look back over the year’s events to realise just how much you can squeeze into 12 months. Let’s take a moment to reflect. This year … We made history by securing legislated nurse-to-patient and midwife-to-patient ratios. We finalised public sector award modernisation without loss of conditions. We took the public sector EB9 to ballot. Beth Mohle We engaged in one of the longest federal election campaigns in Australian history. In any other year, any one of these would have been achievement enough—but to have all of them come to fruition in one year is quite the feat. And it doesn’t end there. While those big issues were in the spotlight, the important day-to-day work of our union has also been tracking very well. Our membership numbers have reached a record 56,000, we’ve negotiated 34 private, aged care and other enterprise agreements, our social media community has doubled since last year, and our member services and legal team have increased their caseload by about 25%. While it is true the absence of a truly adversarial state government did allow us to turn our focus elsewhere, the secret to our successes this year, and every year, runs deeper than that.

We want to see Christian principles and ethics accepted and influencing the way we are governed, do business and relate as a society. We want Australia to become a more just and compassionate nation. ACL is a non-party partisan, non-denominational movement that seeks to bring a credible, Christian voice for values to our national debate. Abortion Law Reform (Women's Right to Choose) Amendment Bill 2016 The Australian Christian Lobby (ACL) welcomes the opportunity to provide a submission to the committee on the private members bill Abortion Law Reform (Women's Right to Choose) Amendment Bill 2016 and the committee’s consideration on various aspects of law governing abortion. The bill introduced by Mr Rob Pyne MP, Member for Cairns, Abortion Law Reform (Women's Right to Choose) Amendment Bill 2016, would remove 3 abortion related offences from the Criminal Code, as well as remove disqualifying offences from the Transport Operations (Road Use Management) Act 1995. ACL recommends this bill not be passed. A recent e-petition opposing this bill closed on 23 May 2016 and received 23,869 signatures, a very high number of signatures for any QLD petition.

  • Time to Repeal Outdated Abortion Laws in New South Wales and Queensland
    Ethics and law Time to repeal outdated abortion laws in New South Wales and Queensland Recent developments regarding abortion law in NSW and Queensland carry significant implications for doctors n New South Wales and Queensland, abortion is a Icriminal offence, unless it is deemed to be lawful. The doctor who provides the termination, those who assist and the woman herself may all be prosecuted under the Crimes Act 1900 (NSW) or the Criminal Code Act 1899 (Qld). The question of when an abortion is lawful is unclear. In NSW, the test for lawfulness of abortion was considered in R v Wald in 1971.1 In this case, the judge found that an abortion may be justified where: the accused . had an honest belief on reasonable grounds that what they did was necessary to preserve the woman involved from serious danger to their life, or physical or mental health, which the continuance of the pregnancy would entail, not merely the normal dangers of acutely obvious, and in both cases the emotional damage pregnancy and childbirth, and that in the to the woman concerned has been significant. circumstances the danger of the operation was The recent case of Central Queensland Hospital and Health not out of proportion to the danger intended to 1 Service v Q (the Q case) underscores the discrepancies be averted. and uncertainties inherent in the current law regarding In regard to mental health, the judge found that the abortion in Queensland.4 In April 2016, a 12-year-old girl doctor may take into account “the effects of economic (Q) sought an abortion from her local general practitioner or social stress that may be pertaining to the time”.1 and was referred to a Queensland public hospital.
