Early years and background

McCaw was born in Chatswood, New South Wales. he was the son of a teamster and was educated in country schools. He initially worked as a farm hand but then moved to Sydney, was employed as a clerk and continued to study at night. He was admitted as a solicitor in 1934 and was active in the New South Wales Law Society and community groups in the Lane Cove district.[1]

Political career

McCaw entered the New South Wales parliament at the 1947 election as the Liberal member for Lane Cove; defeating the sitting Labor member Henry Woodward. He retained the seat at the next nine elections and retired in 1975.

With the election of the coalition government of Robert Askin at the 1965 election, McCaw was appointed Attorney-General. He held this position until his retirement.[1] In 1967 he recommended to Cabinet that women be called for jury service[2] although the 1968 legislation did not commence operation until 1974 and then only in part of NSW.

During his term in office, he was appointed Queen's Counsel, in 1972.

Career after politics

On retirement from politics, McCaw was awarded a Knight Bachelor, which does not carry post-nominals.[3]
