Page 1 - TRIBUTE TO JUDICIARY Queen opens High Court building
TRIBUTE TO JUDICIARY
The Australian High Court was
recognised as a court of the highest
eminence among the courts of the
nations, the Queen said yesterday.
She was speaking to more than 1,100
guests - including eminent judges and
chief justices from many countries -
before declaring open the new High
Court of Australia building in Canberra.
"The High Court of Australia has
earned great respect both within Aus
tralia and beyond", the Queen added.
"I am pleased to pay tribute to the
judiciary of Australia - including the
judges present today and the justices of
this court in particular - for the ad
mirable way in which they discharge their
onerous responsibilities".
The Queen said the law of the land was
a priceless inheritance which secured the
liberties "which as individuals and as a
nation we prize".
"In times of social change and tensions
in the world great are the demands upon
the courts and the challenges to them in
reconciling competing interests and in
accommodating traditional rules to new
circumstances". '
The Queen said she was "very pleased"
that so many chief justices and judges
from many other countries - including
the Commonwealth - had taken the
opportunity to attend the opening.
"Their presence is a reminder of the
importance of the law in the life of all
nations and in international rela
tionships", she said.
The Prime Minister, Mr Fraser, said
the opening of the High Court building
was "a momentous occasion for us all".
"In our national capital, in close prox
imity to the Federal Parliament and to
those buildings which house the executive
arm of government, we are giving a

permanent home to the High Court of
Australia".
Mr Fraser said the High Court was of
"special importance" to all Australians
and a vital element in our federal con
stitutional system.
He paid tribute to the "driving force"
behind the concept of the new building,
the Chief Justice, Sir Garfield Barwick.
"This building bears testimony to Sir
Garfield's vision, energy and imagination
and will stand as a memorial to the high
standards of Australian designers and
builders, craftsmen and artists".
Sir Garfield welcomed the Queen to
the High Court when she arrived and took
the Royal couple on a .tour of the building..
The Queen had lunch with the High
Court justices and their wives before the
opening ceremony.
After opening the new building the
Queen walked to the plaza outside, where
she planted a gum tree with the help of
the Prime Minister.
After mingling with the guests during
afternoon tea the Queen left for Govern
ment House where she and Prince Philip
are staying.
Prince Philip went on to the St John
Priory, Forrest, to present Gold Awards
to 27 recipients under the Duke of Edin
burgh Award Scheme.
The Queen and Prince Philip leave
Canberra today for a 12-hour visit to
Sydney. The RAAF VIP Hawker-Sid
deley aircraft will leave Fairbairn RAAF
base at 10.20am.
Arrangements have been made for
Canberra schoolchildren to see the Queen
before her departure.
They will return to Canberra later this
evening.
Demonstrators arrested
Police arrested three demon
strators outside the High Court
building just a few minutes after
the official opening.
Although there were a large number
of demonstrators only a small section of
them were vocal. The remainder stood
silent waving flags and banners.
The reasons for the demonstrations
appeared to be varied but with the main
issues being opposition to the cost of the
High Court building, which rose from the
original estimate of $19 million to $49
million in five years, and republicanism.
Some carried placards saying "we de
mand a refund" and "welfare not fan
fare".
The Prime Minister is understood to
have been angry at the size of the demon
stration which had grown since the Queen
had arrived at the court about four hours
earlier.
A Federal Police spokesman said last
night the three people arrested had been
charged with having used indecent lan
guage, having assaulted police and having
resisted arrest.
They will appear in court in Canberra
on Friday.
The demonstrators came from various
groups including the Socialist lawyers,
the High Court Fan Club, the Campaign
for a Day of National Justice, universities
and prisoners' action groups.
As the visiting judges arrived at their
hotels around Canberra on Sunday they
encountered their first example of lax
security.
Each was handed, with various official
documents, one large envelope purporting
to come for the House of Representatives.
Inside was a scathing attack on Sir Gar
field Barwick supported by a collection of
press cuttings.
