Australia debates expanding parliament to reflect its 27 million population, with proposals for more seats and fixed terms, requiring a referendum.
Australia is debating expanding its federal parliament to match its population growth, now over 27 million, with proposals for more electorates and fixed four-year terms requiring a referendum.
While some, including former attorney-general George Brandis, support the change for demographic fairness, concerns remain about political advantages.
The discussion also highlights the need for higher-quality MPs, with recognition of dedicated leaders through the non-partisan McKinnon Prize.
Founded in 2015 by Sophie Oh and Grant Rule, McKinnon is building a talent pipeline to attract skilled individuals into politics, aiming to improve governance and policy effectiveness.
The Herald has partnered with McKinnon to advance stronger democratic leadership.
