National OLT funding awarded to support Adelaide’s ‘Smart Casual’ project Anne and a team of academics from Flinders University and University of Western Australia will use the OLT grant funding to create resources to assist sessional law teachers develop the skills they require to become excellent teachers in our demanding and difficult discipline.
Anne Hewitt
On 7 June 2013 the Minister for Higher Education and Skills announced Office of Learning and Teaching (OLT) Grants for 38 research teams across Australia. One of the grant recipients of this highly competitive grant funding was Adelaide Law School academic Anne Hewitt, whose project ‘Smart casual: towards excellence in sessional teaching in Law’ received $49,000 funding.
For both teachers and law students, this project is a timely one. Half of all teaching in the Australian higher education is provided by sessional staff, rendering the quality of their teaching critical to student learning, retention and progress. However, national research suggests support and training for sessional teachers remains inadequate. In law, this problem is compounded by the need for staff to teach discipline-specific skills and content to students destined for a socially-bounded profession. Anne’s project will begin to address this problem by identifying and responding to the professional development requirements of sessional staff in law. In consultation with a national expert panel, the project team will design, trial and evaluate three professional development modules with a view to generating resources which can be of use to sessional teachers across the diversity of Australian law schools.
How a crackdown on 457 visas could work A hotly debated public policy issue this election year has been 457 visas. In February the Labor Government signalled its intention to reform the 457 visa scheme because of a belief that the visa was being used in areas where there was no domestic skill shortage and as such was leading to the exploitation of some visa holders. At the prompting of Independent Senator Nick Xenophon and with the support of Labor, the Senate’s Legal and Constitutional Affairs Committee launched an inquiry into 457 visas. Dr Joanna Howe, Associate Professor Alex Reilly and Professor Andrew Stewart prepared a submission for this inquiry and was asked by the Senate to attend the oral hearing to give evidence. Dr Joanna Howe attended the Committee hearing and advocated that the 457 visa be fine-tuned so as to incorporate independent labour market testing and introduce a two-tier model for the processing of 457 visa claims. When the Minister for Immigration and Citizenship introduced Labor’s 457 visa reform bill into the House of Representatives in June, he directly referenced the Adelaide Law School’s submission to the inquiry and Labor’s proposal drew upon the idea s ISSUE 11, 1 October 2013

of a two-track scheme which differentiated in the entry requirements for highly skilled temporary migrant workers and those with a lower skill level. Off the back of this submission, a number of significant opinion pieces have been published by Dr Joanna Howe in major national newspapers such as the Sydney Morning Herald, the Melbourne Age and the Australian Financial Review. These have served an important educative function in the current debate over how to reform the 457 visa scheme. Page 4

Comparative Law class visits the South Australian Courts In late May the postgraduate Comparative Law students accepted the Honourable Justice Gray’s invitation to visit the South Australian Courts. Justices Gray and Sulan welcomed the students, showed them part of the Supreme Court Building and explained the work of the courts to them. The group then saw a witness examination in a trial heard in the District Court, before being shown a court room, including prisoner holding cells and jury deliberation room, by Her Honour Judge Davison. After that, the Honourable Christopher Legoe QC gave a presentation on the history of the independent bar in South Australia. This was followed by a visit to the Adelaide Magistrates Court where Deputy Chief Magistrate Dr Andrew Cannon explained the Australian system of courts to the students. The group then rejoined Justice Gray, who showed them his chambers and the robes and wigs worn by a Justice of the Supreme Court.
The visit ended with a lunch hosted by the Judge. The students enjoyed this experience very much. It gave them not only an insight into how the South Australian courts operate but also into the judicial mind.
Success in national constitutional law essay competition Adelaide Law Student Alice Wharldall has been awarded second prize in the nation-wide Sir Anthony Mason Constitutional Law Essay Competition. In judging the finalists, Sir Anthony Mason said: ‘I found it very difficult to make a comparative assessment of the top four essays. There was very little between them. Any one of them was worthy of
Alice’s essay, Freedom of Political Communication: A Necessary Inquiry, considered the recent High Court decision in Monis v The Queen. In that case the High Court equally split over the question of whether the Commonwealth could prohibit the use of postal services in a way that a reasonable person would consider menacing, harassing or offensive, or whether such speech was protected by the implied freedom of political communication. Alice advanced an argument that the division in the High Court on this question reflected divisions about the requirements of representative government and the nature of political debate. Alice’s essay was originally submitted as part of the Advanced Constitutional Law: Theory and Practice elective course.

Two Adelaide Law Students, Rebecca McEwen and Lloyd Wicks, recently returned from Cape Town, South Africa where they represented Australia at the 18th Commonwealth Law Conference. The Commonwealth Moot is an adjunct to the Conference; university teams are invited to represent their country based on their performance at regional tournaments. Whilst not taking out the final title we are most proud of these two shining stars, and look forward to seeing their futures as they continue to ‘take on the world’. An amazing opportunity Rebecca and Lloyd commented ‘We would like to thank the Law Society of South Africa and the University of Adelaide for sponsoring aspects of our visit to Cape Town.

Law School participates in Constitutional Roundtable, Parliament House, Canberra On 20 June 2013 the House of Representatives Standing Committee on Social Policy and Legal Affairs held a ‘Constitutional Roundtable’ at Parliament House, Canberra. The Committee was joined by a number of constitutional experts to discuss topical issues in relation to the Constitution and its reform. The Roundtable was open to the public and streamed live. Members of the public were encouraged to write in their questions via Twitter and be part of the discussion. The Roundtable was divided into two sessions, the first considered ‘The role of the High Court in interpreting the Constitution’ and the second considered ‘Campaigns to change the Constitution’. The Adelaide Law School’s Dr Gabrielle Appleby was asked to give the opening remarks in the first session. She took the opportunity to discuss the High
Court’s role in applying the Constitution to modern circumstances and the role of Parliament in interpreting and applying the constitution in its work.

SA Law Reform visits country South Australia The forums allowed SALRI to canvass the views and suggestions of country lawyers experienced in wills and estate work and, through them, the experiences of their clients.
Succession Law Reform Succession - Mount GambierLaw Reform - Mount Gambier
The South Australian Law Reform Institute (SALRI), based at the Adelaide Law School, conducted its first country succession law reform forums in July 2013, visiting Mount Gambier on Friday 5 July and Port Pirie on Wednesday 10 July. The forums were funded by a grant from the Law Foundation of South Australia. The panel for each forum was Professor John Williams (SALRI Director), Helen Wighton (SALRI Deputy Director) and Steve Roder (the Registrar of Probates).
Professor Williams said 'It was a great pleasure to be able to consult with members of the profession in Mount Gambier and Port Pirie. They brought to the discussion insight based upon practical experience in their communities.' a Eighteen local legal practitioners attended the Mount Gambier session and seven attended the session in Port Pirie. Their comments and suggestions, particularly those reflecting regional concerns, will be considered in future reports on these issues. ‘The generous support of the Registrar of Probates, Mr Steve Roder and the Law Foundation was central to the success of the forums', said Professor Williams. Succession Law Reform - Port Pirie
The forums focussed on the topics being reviewed under the Attorney-General’s succession law reform reference to SALRI: family provision; review of the rules of intestacy; simplifying the process for recognising interstate grants; whether there should be a will register; simplifying procedures for administration of small deceased estates and resolution of minor disputes; and the role of the Public Trustee in the administration of estates.

Alumni in Focus - James Drake QC I graduated from the Law School in 1985. I completed my articles of clerkship (which, with the telex machine in the office in my first job, rather dates me) with Reilly Ahern & Kerin. On the advice of the then Ted Mulligan QC to ‘go east young man’ I then headed to Sydney and joined Baker & McKenzie (B&M). After two or three years there, heeding the Mulligan advice once again, I moved to New York with B&M, and subsequently joined the NY firm of Owen & Davis, a specialist litigation firm, becoming a partner there in the late 1990s. No doubt taking the Mulligan advice rather too literally (and this time with wife and children in tow), I then came to the London bar, joining 7 King’s
Bench Walk, a leading commercial set of barristers in the Inner Temple. My wife tells me this is east enough. My current practice is somewhat equally divided between international litigation and arbitration, and I regularly sit as an arbitrator in London. Any advancement that I have achieved over the years has been attributable to (a) dollops of good fortune and (b) an outstanding academic foundation from the Adelaide Law School -- indeed, I enjoyed it so much I am hoping to return in an adjunct teaching role in the years to come.

Australia failing on child labour commitment University of Adelaide law experts say Australia is lagging behind much of the developed world by not signing an international convention on a minimum age for workers, while South Australia is also lagging behind the rest of the nation because it does not have adequate child labour laws.
developing nations of the world, with notable exceptions being Australia, New Zealand, the US and Canada. For developed nations, this convention sets the minimum working age at 16 years’ Professor Owens says. ‘When we talk about child labour, most people think of problems in the developing or Third World. However, in the developed world there are wide gaps in the regulation of child labour – and Australia, which does not have uniform laws on this issue State by State, is a perfect example of this.’ Professor Owens says South Australia still does not have laws that regulate child labour.
Speaking in the lead up to World Day Against Child Labour (Wednesday 12 June), Professor Rosemary Owens from Adelaide Law School said Australia’s position on a minimum age for workers has become an ‘international embarrassment’. ‘Australia is one of only 20 member countries that have not yet signed the Minimum Age Convention of 1973, which underpins the International Labour Organization’s (ILO’s) Declaration on Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work. This is one of the conventions established by the ILO which ensures that countries are committed to the effective abolition of child labour.’
‘The South Australian government has been talking about this issue for years but so far we have not seen a concrete resolution from either side of politics,’ Professor Owens says. ‘Most other Australian States have some form of child labour laws, and some of them are strong laws, but the regulations are not standardised from one State to the other. In South Australia, regulations prevent school-aged children from being employed at a time when they are supposed to be going to school. However, that does not stop children from working out of school hours and then being unable to go to school the next day because they’re too tired to do so. This is just one example, but it shows that a lack of legal framework around child labour can put children at risk, preventing them from leading healthy, happy lives and completing their education.’
Professor Owens is an internationally regarded labour law expert who sits on the Committee of Experts for the ILO, a special agency of the United Nations that works to promote decent working standards and conditions throughout the world. ‘The UK and all countries in Europe have signed the convention, as have most of the developed and
