Planning Bills pass in Lower House
As expected, the Government used its majority in the Lower House to push through the Planning Bills.
So what’s next?
The Bills will be debated in the Upper House in mid-November. To get its Bills through the Government needs to get the votes of the Greens and/or the Labor Party and/or both the Shooters and Fishers and the Christian Democrats.
The Greens and the Shooters and Fishers have both indicated that they are unlikely to support the Bills. So it is vital that Labor stands firm as well.
