    Parliamentary Debates (HANSARD) THIRTY-EIGHTH PARLIAMENT FIRST SESSION 2012 LEGISLATIVE ASSEMBLY Thursday, 15 November 2012 Legislative Assembly Thursday, 15 November 2012 THE SPEAKER (Mr G.A. Woodhams) took the chair at 9.00 am, and read prayers. PARLIAMENT HOUSE — SOLAR PANELS INSTALLATION Statement by Speaker THE SPEAKER (Mr G.A. Woodhams): Members, I remain on my feet to provide you with two pieces of information. The Parliament has decided to install a set of solar panels on top of Parliament House. By the end of the year, Parliament will be generating its own electricity on site. There will be 72 panels in all, enough to provide energy to both legislative chambers. I might facetiously suggest that we always have enough light in this house! Mr T.R. Buswell: We’ve got enough hot air! The SPEAKER: Correct, minister! Several members interjected. The SPEAKER: Thanks, members. Hon Barry House, President of the Legislative Council, and I have been planning this project for quite some years. We believe that the location of the 72 solar array panels above this particular chamber, construction of which finished in 1904, will certainly reduce electricity costs in this place. Parliament will undertake other sustainable energy innovations with LED lighting, the use of voltage optimisers and the real time monitoring of electricity, gas and water use. I knew that members would find that information useful. COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT AND JUSTICE STANDING COMMITTEE — INQUIRY INTO THE STATE’S PREPAREDNESS FOR THIS YEAR’S BUSHFIRE SEASON Extension of Reporting Time — Statement by Speaker THE SPEAKER (Mr G.A. Woodhams): I also indicate that I received a letter dated 14 November 2012 from the Chairman of the Community Development and Justice Standing Committee advising that the committee has resolved to amend the tabling date of the report on its inquiry into the state’s preparedness for this year’s fire season until 26 November 2012.

  • Burwell-Frederick-William
    PHOTO REQUIRED Frederick W. Burwell (courtesy xx xx) Frederick William Burwell (1846-1915) was born in Huntly, Aberdeenshire, Scotland to Frederick Charles Burwell and Margaret Allan Ross. Unfortunately Frederick senior died in the same year as the birth of his son. F.W. Burwell served his articles with James Matthews (1820-1898) in Scotland before migrating to the southern Dominions, arriving at Melbourne in 1869, aged 23, and subsequently moving to New Zealand. He first established a practice in Queenstown, then moving to Invercargill in 1874, where his practice thrived. The New Zealand Historic Places Trust notes that “Burwell is noted for designing many buildings in Invercargill, which transformed the centre of the town in the 1870s. Once established in Invercargill he began designing elegant two and three-storey buildings, in the Renaissance style. In Dee Street almost all the buildings were designed by him, including the hospital. 'The Crescent' was another notable streetscape created by Burwell.” Frederick Burwell was elected a Fellow of RIBA in 1880, proposed by (later Sir) Robert W. Edis, John Norton, and his uncle David Ross. Ross had also studied under James Matthews, the two architects had both migrated to New Zealand, and Ross had been made FRIBA in 1879 - with Edis and Norton as proposers. Burwell moved to Hawthorn, Victoria and was listed in practice in Collins Street, Melbourne from c.1888 until 1894. A cursory examination of tender notices suggests Burwell undertook a significant number of multiple residential projects in and around Melbourne in this period. Fred married the much younger Annie Sunderland Bateman (1868-1942) at Hobart, Tasmania on 30 April 1891.

  • Cogill Brothers
    COGILL BROTHERS Charles and Harry Cogill American comics, dancers, singers, entrepreneurs, writers, producers. The Cogill brothers first toured Australia with Emerson's Minstrels in 1885 and remained in the country for some 15 years. During that period they found engagements with Williamson, Garner and Musgrove and Harry Rickards (including operating joint companies), but were largely known for running their own minstrel and burlesque companies. These companies invariably included some of the country's leading performers, notably W. Horace Bent, J. C. Bain, the Bovis brothers, Delohery Craydon and Holland, Johnny Matlock, Slade Murray, the Rockley brothers and Will Whitburn. In 1890 the Cogills were forced into bankruptcy, but within 18 months were able to return to the industry as entrepreneurs. By the mid- 1890s the brothers appear to have taken different paths, with Charles Cogill being associated with Harry Rickards (1896 - ca.1900) and Frank M. Clark (1898). Harry Cogill toured his own minstrel companies (Harry Cogill's Federal Minstrels, Harry Cogill's New Musical Comedy Co, and the Bright Lights Co) around Australasia from 1897 to 1901. Charles died in San Francisco in 1903. His brother died in New York less than a month later. The Cogill brothers, Charles William and Harry Payon, came to Australia in the 1880s during a period of activity and opportunity not seen in the county since the heady gold-rush era of the late 1850s/early 1960s and subsequently stayed. As entrepreneurs they engaged a great number of local performers, and played a significant role in disseminating their knowledge beyond their own troupes, as many of these performers went on to carve out their own successful careers and in turn engaged and developed the next generation of performers.
