		AUSTRALIA, New South Wales - A decision handed down by the NSW Supreme Court in July 1998 to award a gay man some provision from his deceased partner's estate was unanimously upheld last week by the NSW Supreme Court of Appeal.
		Legislation was passed in [the] NSW parliament earlier this year to recognise same-sex couples when one partner dies intestate (without a will).

		In 1905 he was a member of a New South Wales Labor Party sub-committee at its Conference in that year which recommended the Party adopt a two-part non-socialist objective thus reflecting the continued supremacy of the moderates in the Political Labor Leagues.
		In his history of the New South Wales branch of the Labor Party, Graeme Freudenberg described Rae as 'unusual among Labor leaders in having opposed Australian participation in the War from its outbreak'.
		These new endeavours resulted in the convening of a Union Congress on 5 August 1918 attended by 141 delegates from 79 unions, the majority of whom were of militant persuasion.

	Putting Skirts on the Sacred Benches: Women Candidates for the New South Wales Parliament - Introduction
		The women of New South Wales gained the right to vote in 1902; however, it was not until 1918 that they were permitted to sit in the Parliament.
		After one unsuccessful attempt in 1922, Millicent Preston-Stanley, the Nationalist party candidate, was elected to the Legislative Assembly by the people of the electorate of Eastern Suburbs in 1925.
		It is hard to imagine a candidate of the stature and quality of Roberta Galagher receiving anything but safe passage through to parliament in 2006, yet she stood as the Liberal Party candidate for the Legislative Assembly electorate of King four times in the 1940s and 50s and was unsuccessful each time.

	ARPA: Preston-Stanley on the prospects for women MPs
		Had she entered the Assembly in 1995 rather than 1925, as perhaps the 25th female rather than the first, she would not have been able to refer to an exclusive male domain, but it is debatable whether the parliament’s masculine gender environment had changed greatly in the intervening years.
		Conventionally, first speeches are heard in silence and the new MP reciprocates by avoiding controversy and not causing offence, but Preston-Stanley criticised Labor for its socialist policies and called Adela Pankhurst Walsh a ‘demagogistic philosopheress’ for inflaming a waterfront dispute.
		The Council has fewer Members than the Assembly (in 2005, the ratio was 42 to 93), is less rowdy, has a large crossbench (about one quarter) to moderate the conflict between government and opposition, and is considered a career cul-de-sac.
