Independent MLC Meg Webb and the Australia Institute Tasmania Director Eloise Carr present a discussion paper urging Tasmania's 51st Parliament to strengthen democracy. Reforms include restrictions on "pork barrelling," banning political donations from certain industries, and introducing "truth in political advertising." The paper argues that a minority Liberal government reliant on independents makes this the opportune time to push for democratic reforms.
