# Alex Gallacher

Alexander McEachian Gallacher (1 January 1954 – 29 August 2021) was an Australian politician who was a Senator for South Australia from 2011 until his death in 2021. He was a member of the Australian Labor Party (ALP) and was a senior official in the Transport Workers Union of Australia (TWU) before entering parliament.

## Early life

Gallacher was born on 1 January 1954 in New Cumnock, Scotland. He arrived in Australia with his family in 1966 and became an Australian citizen in 1980. He renounced his British citizenship prior to his election to parliament in 2010, as required by section 44 of the constitution. After leaving school, he worked as a labourer and truck driver for a number of years. He was then employed as a ramp services operator with Trans Australia Airlines (TAA) from 1976 to 1988.

## Labour movement

Before entering parliament, Gallacher had a long involvement with the Transport Workers Union of Australia (TWU). Within the union's South Australia/Northern Territory (SA/NT) branch, he held the positions of industrial officer (1988–1992), organiser (1992–1996), and state secretary (1996–2010). He additionally served as federal vice-president (2005–2007) and president (2007–2010).

## Politics

Gallacher joined the Australian Labor Party (ALP) in 1988 and served as a delegate to state council and the ALP National Conference. He aligned with the Labor Right faction. Prior to the 2010 federal election, he won ALP preselection for the Senate in first position on the party's ticket in South Australia. He defeated two incumbent senators, Anne McEwen and Dana Wortley, for the place at the top of the ticket.
Gallacher was elected in 2010 to an initial term beginning on 1 July 2011. He was re-elected at the 2016 and 2019 federal elections. In his maiden speech, Gallacher listed transport, road safety and superannuation as three priority interests. He also stated his concerns over the impact of the carbon tax on road transport and call for self-employed drivers to be compensated for any negative impacts. He later warned against the ALP becoming "captive to a new Green agenda".
Gallacher served on a number of standing and select committees during his time in the Senate.

## Personal life

Gallacher was diagnosed with lung cancer in January 2020 and took a leave of absence from the Senate to undergo treatment. He self-isolated during the COVID-19 pandemic. He died on 29 August 2021, aged 67.

# Defensive substitution

A defensive substitution in the game of baseball occurs when a currently non-playing player is placed into the field in place of another player, typically due either to injury or the appearance of a pinch hitter. In the American League, a pinch hitter is usually substituted for the position player in whose place he batted (although another common substitution is pinch-hitting a utility infielder for a second baseman and subsequently switching him for the shortstop in the field while moving the shortstop over to the now-vacant second base position). In the National League (which, until 2022, did not use the designated hitter rule), pinch hitters sometimes bat for pitchers. However, another common pitcher-substitution strategy in the NL is the double switch, in which a pitching change is coupled with a pinch-hitter who is also defensively substituted for a second player.

# Andrew J. Robinson (builder)

Andrew J. Robinson (died 1922) was a builder in New York City and partner in the firm Robinson & Wallace established in 1872 and later reorganized as the Andrew J. Robinson Company. His firms built St. Luke's Hospital (New York City) (1895), the St. Paul Building (1897), New York Hospital, the Havemeyer Hall (1898), the East River Savings Bank, Blair Building, B.F. Goodrich Company Building at 1780 Broadway (1909) and Pabst Hotel (1902).

Drew King Robinson was his son.

## John J. Clark Home and company reorganization

Robinson bought the John J. Clark House at 108 West 73rd Street in March 1900 and turned it into a boarding house. An advertisement boasted "Beautiful steam heated rooms; large closets; every accommodation; parlor dining room; table board." Unfortunately, the St. Luke's Hospital project included a $1 million contract for marble from a quarry in Georgia that failed and Robinson had to buy it in order to fulfill the contract. This drove his company into bankruptcy and No. 108 was auctioned in February 1901. It was purchased by Frank C. Poucher who was the treasurer in the reorganized Andrew J. Robinson Company.

# Patrick Neary (regulator)

Patrick Neary, an Irish accountant and public servant, was Financial Regulator at the time of Ireland's financial crisis in 2008, including the issuance of a State guarantee for the country's major banks. His role in the crisis has been subject to significant criticism.

## Early life

Patrick Neary came from County Kilkenny, and studied at St Kieran's College, Kilkenny. He attended University College Dublin for one year, studying the Classics, leaving to help in his family's horticultural business. He subsequently joined the Central Bank of Ireland in 1971.

## Career

Neary began in the Central Bank in a junior role, and was promoted over three decades, reaching a position as head of supervision for securities and stock exchanges. Cases he worked on included two of three Irish bank collapses prior to the Anglo-Irish Bank crisis - those of Irish Trust Bank in 1976 and Merchant Banking in 1982 - and that of Bank of Ireland acquisition First New Hampshire Bank.
In 2003, he moved from the main body of the Central Bank to take one of the leadership positions, as prudential director, at a new semi-separate supervisory agency for Ireland's financial institutions, the Irish Financial Services Regulatory Authority (IFSRA). The IFSRA, while under the auspices of the Central Bank, had its own management structures, and a high degree of operational independence. While prudential director, Neary oversaw work on two cases concerning scandals at AIB.
In February 2006, Neary was appointed as CEO of the IFSRA, making him the leading regulator of financial institutions in Ireland, supervising more than 10,000 bodies and funds, with assets in excess of over 1.1 trillion euro. In 2009, there were criticisms of the authority's work "stress-testing" Irish banks, and the weight placed on bad debt risk on property loans, as well as loans from key players in Anglo-Irish Bank.
At a public appearance before the country's parliamentary enquiry into banking in 2015, Neary confirmed that he told Taoiseach Brian Cowen that all the country's banks were solvent on the night of 29 September 2008, when those same banks were provided with a substantial guarantee by the country's politicians. He did note that one bank, Anglo-Irish, had been under pressure around solvency, and accepted that, with hindsight, more could have been done from a regulatory standpoint. Economist David McWilliams has described Neary as "the worst financial regulator the world has ever seen." At the 2015 enquiry, Neary also admitted it was a mistake to print golf balls featuring the Regulator's logo.
