December 2011 Legislation Newsletter

There has to be a morning after, so we ask, what happens after a local law is cancelled?  And, on the theme of questions that are not always asked, we look at a recent reform to the law providing for accreditation of lawyers in Victoria, Australia.  The amendment was minor and sensible.  We ask, how did this happen?

Also in our latest newsletter:  public participation in the process of making primary legislation – Indonesia shows the way ... comments on the Indonesia’s Law on Making Laws 2011 ... maintenance of utility infrastructure in road reserves (going back 60 years) ... road encroachments (going back 4,000 years) ... road administration: identifying the stakeholders (putting the stakeholder concept to the test).

Paper presented to WCTR Lisbon Conference

The 12th World Conference on Transport Research took place in Lisbon, Portugal, in July 2010. We presented a paper to the conference, “Stakeholder Consultation in Road Administration”. It has two central themes: first, roads are more than just a part of a transportation network for road vehicles – they are land which is open to and used by the public for many purposes;and secondly effective stakeholder consultation by road administrators is possible – even where resources are limited.

The paper has been published in the Selected Proceedings of the Conference.
