The law of parliamentary privilege in New South Wales is the sum of certain immunities, rights, and powers enjoyed by the individual Houses of the Parliament of New South Wales, together with their members and committees, as constituent parts of the Legislature. The law is complex. It is liberally interspersed with uncertainty and ambiguity. It is also distinctly different from the law of privilege in other Australian jurisdictions, including the Commonwealth, and also from overseas jurisdictions. It is singular in the degree to which it relies on the common law, without recourse to statutory expression or to the historical privileges of the Houses of Parliament in the United Kingdom. Nevertheless, in some respects, the Parliament of New South Wales has been remarkably successful through the courts, and through its own procedures, in asserting the powers and rights of members under the banner of parliamentary privilege, notably in relation to orders for the production of State papers.

This paper reports on birth-site distribution of Merinos and some British breeds in 34 lambing paddocks in a major study over 5 lambing seasons at Armidale New South Wales, and in minor studies during single lambing seasons, 2 in New South Wales and 3 in the United Kingdom. The observed distribution of birth-sites is related to topographic and other environmental features of the paddocks. In level, or nearly level paddocks, Merinos tended to lamb in a random pattern, but in sloping paddocks their birth-sites were consistently aggregated in the areas of greatest elevation. British breeds (Suffolks and Cheviots in New South Wales, and Welsh Mountain, Scottish Blackface, North Country Cheviots and Greyface in the United Kingdom) showed a pronounced tendency to lamb near the margins of paddocks, and a less marked preference for an elevated site. It is suggested that lamb mortality could be significantly reduced by the use of paddocks that provide shelter at preferred elevated positions, or along and within the paddock margins.

Dalam konteks pengiklanan oleh peguam, menjadi kewajipan profesion guaman untuk mendidik masyarakat, khususnya mereka yang berpendapatan sederhana dan rendah, mengenai kewujudan dan kesediaan perkhidmatan guaman dalam membantu mereka menyelesaikan sesuatu masalah perundangan. Lantaran itu, iklan mengenai perkhidmatan guaman wajar mengandungi maklumat yang relevan untuk diketahui umum. Walau bagaimanapun, melihat kepada kaedah publisiti yang mengawal profesion guaman Malaysia, maklumat yang boleh diiklankan sebahagian besarnya terbatas kepada biodata peguam serta butiran mengenai firma dan rakan kongsi peguam. Maklumat lain yang lebih penting untuk diketahui awam, yang boleh membantu mereka untuk membandingkan perkhidmatan yang wujud di pasaran, serta memilih perkhidmatan peguam mana yang bersesuaian dengan keperluannya, tidak boleh diiklankan. Salah satunya ialah maklumat mengenai bidang kepakaran peguam. Berdasarkan metod analisis kandungan, kertas kerja ini membincangkan tentang sekatan untuk mengiklankan bidang kepakaran seperti yang terkandung dalam kaedah publisiti yang mengawal profesion guaman Malaysia, serta membuat perbandingan dengan peraturan yang dikuatkuasakan di Amerika Syarikat, United Kingdom (England & Wales) dan Australia (New South Wales). Berdasarkan pensampelan mudah, soal selidik untuk meninjau persepsi awam dan peguam berhubung isu ini turut diedarkan dan dapatannya dipersembahkan secara deskriptif. Hasil kajian menunjukkan bahawa majoriti pihak peguam dan awam mempunyai persepsi bahawa maklumat mengenai bidang kepakaran adalah maklumat yang sesuai untuk diiklankan oleh peguam.

In 1954 a young country woman from New South Wales, Shirley Dunk, ex- ercised her agency and travelled to London. This was a journey to the home of her fore- fathers and copied the activities of other country women who made similar journeys. Some of the earliest of these journeys were undertaken by the wives and daughters of the 19th-century rural gentry. This research project will use a qualitative approach in an examination of Shirley’s journey archive complemented with supplementary interviews and stories of other travellers. Shirley nostalgically recalled the sense of adventure that she experienced as she left Sydney for London by ship and travelled through the United Kingdom and Europe. The article will address questions posed by the journey for Shirley and her travelling companion, Beth, and how they dealt with these forces as tourists and travellers. Shirley’s letters home were reported in the country press and reminiscent of soldier’s wartime letters home that described their tales as tourists in foreign lands. The narrative will show that Shirley, as an Australian country girl, was exposed to the cosmo- politan nature of the metropole, as were other women. The paper will explore how Shirley was subject to the forces of modernity and consumerism at a time when rural women were often limited to domesticity.
