  • Thesis August
    Chapter 1 Introduction Section 1.1: ‘A fit place for women’? Section 1.2: Problems of sex, gender and parliament Section 1.3: Gender and the Parliament, 1995-1999 Section 1.4: Expectations on female MPs Section 1.5: Outline of the thesis Section 1.1: ‘A fit place for women’? The Sydney Morning Herald of 27 August 1925 reported the first speech given by a female Member of Parliament (hereafter MP) in New South Wales. In the Legislative Assembly on the previous day, Millicent Preston-Stanley, Nationalist Party Member for the Eastern Suburbs, created history. According to the Herald: ‘Miss Stanley proceeded to illumine the House with a few little shafts of humour. “For many years”, she said, “I have in this House looked down upon honourable members from above. And I have wondered how so many old women have managed to get here - not only to get here, but to stay here”. The Herald continued: ‘The House figuratively rocked with laughter. Miss Stanley hastened to explain herself. “I am referring”, she said amidst further laughter, “not to the physical age of the old gentlemen in question, but to their mental age, and to that obvious vacuity of mind which characterises the old gentlemen to whom I have referred”. Members obviously could not afford to manifest any deep sense of injury because of a woman’s banter. They laughed instead’. Preston-Stanley’s speech marks an important point in gender politics. It introduced female participation in the Twenty-seventh Parliament. It stands chronologically midway between the introduction of responsible government in the 1850s and the Fifty-first Parliament elected in March 1995.

  • Legislative Assembly
    2276 LEGISLATIVE ASSEMBLY Thursday 26 June 2003 ______ Mr Speaker (The Hon. John Joseph Aquilina) took the chair at 10.00 a.m. Mr Speaker offered the Prayer. POLICE INTEGRITY COMMISSION AMENDMENT (REPORTS) BILL Second Reading Debate resumed from 29 May. Mr TINK (Epping) [10.00 a.m.]: This bill amends the Police Integrity Commission Act to require the author or authors of a Police Integrity Commission [PIC] report to be identified. Since this bill was last debated the Inspector of the Police Integrity Commission has had a report tabled in the Parliament relating to the Operation Malta report—the source of the problem this bill seeks to address—entitled, "Report on Practices and Procedures of the Police Integrity Commission". In that report the Inspector of the Police Integrity Commission concluded that my proposal is not necessary because the commission is not a court. His conclusions appear at page 78 and further comments appear at page 106 of the report. I was present yesterday evening when the Inspector of the Police Integrity Commission gave evidence in public session to the joint parliamentary committee. He gave his evidence with great distinction and not without a little good humour. Nevertheless, I disagree fundamentally with his position and remain deeply troubled by the approach on this matter of both the inspector—with great respect to him—and the PIC. It is more important now than ever that the Parliament deal with and support this bill, ironically and particularly given the views of the inspector. It is important that I acknowledge the candour of his remarks.

I have been asked by you to provide a report to address the following question: “Will noise or other direct or indirect consequences (and which consequences) of the operation of the Stony Gap wind farm erected as contemplated in the Application, and involving turbines of the type and dimensions referred to in the Application, in your opinion be likely to cause adverse health effects or significantly exacerbate existing adverse health effects to a significant percentage of the population living within up to 10 kilometers of the turbines from the Stony Gap Wind Farm?” In my opinion, it is inevitable that this proposed wind development, if built in this location with turbines of the specified size, will cause serious harm to the physical and mental health of a significant percentage of the surrounding population, including particularly to vulnerable groups such as young children, the elderly, and those with pre existing medical and psychiatric conditions, who live and work in the sound energy impact zone of this proposed Stony Gap Wind Farm (SGWF), out to a distance of at least 10 kilometers from the turbines, over the lifetime of the project.
