  • House, Government and Opposition
    2 House, Government and Opposition A knowledge of the structure of the House of Representatives is important to an understanding of its mode of operation. The components or groups which make up the House and which are described in the text that follows are common to most parliamentary systems based on the Westminster model. The relationship and interaction between these components is at the heart of parliamentary activity. The nature of the relationships between the groups largely determines the operational effectiveness of the Parliament, particularly in relation to the Executive Government. GOVERNMENT AND PARLIAMENT Relationships The relationship between the groups is governed by a combination of constitutional provisions, convention and political reality, which can be simplified as follows: Members are individually elected to represent constituents within each electoral division and collectively form the House of Representatives.1 In most cases Members belong to and support a particular political party. The party (or parties2) having the support of the majority of Members becomes the government party. The party (or parties) opposed to the party supporting the government forms the ‘official’ Opposition. The party having the support of the majority of Members elects one of its members as leader, who is commissioned by the Governor-General as Prime Minister to form a Government. The party supporting the Government may elect,3 or the Prime Minister may appoint, a specified number of its members to be Ministers of State (the Ministry) who form the Federal Executive Council (the body which, in a formal sense, advises the Governor-General in the executive government of the Commonwealth) and who administer the Departments of State of the Commonwealth.

To coincide with the establishment of the Network, I wrote the following article for The Conversation. With review by the Commonwealth Joint Standing Committee on Electoral Matters of the recent federal election pending and changes in electoral laws such as electronic voting and the regulation of political finance being mooted, this article might provide a useful perspective on the role of the Network in the public debate on Australia’s electoral democracy. The benefits of deliberation in the political process Originally published on The Conversation, 2 May 2012 Is there a role for deliberation about electoral rules? puzzling is that Australia’s electoral system does, in key respects, provide for “free and fair elections”. For many, the answer would be “no”. For them, the notion of principled discussion informed by careful Is it all a sham? reflection is deeply incongruous with the grubby practice of politics. Take two examples for which Australia is internationally renowned: first, the secret ballot Politics, so they would say, is centred on the pursuit – known internationally as the “Australian ballot’” of political power.
