Sourced positions
Each position is the member's own stated view or vote, supported by the listed sources. The badge says what kind of source backs it — official record (Hansard, a parliament, a government or an electoral commission), own statement (their own site or their party's), news report (journalism or a third-party organisation) or encyclopedia. That is a statement about the evidence, not about how much we believe it. This page records public statements and conduct only — see methodology.

- ✓Health (Improved Abortion Access) Amendment Bill 2024Amends the Health Act 1993 so that nurse practitioners, and others a regulation specifies (authorised midwives), may prescribe abortion medication such as MS-2 Step. A practitioner who declines to provide or assist with an abortion on conscientious grounds must transfer the person's care, or tell them how to find a provider who can help.25 Jun 2024 ↗
Voluntary assisted dying recorded votes
Votes on record · 1
- ✓Voluntary Assisted Dying Bill 2023Lets an adult with an advanced, progressive condition expected to cause their death, who is suffering intolerably and has decision-making capacity, choose voluntary assisted dying. Unlike other Australian schemes, it sets no time frame within which death must be expected. The person must have lived in the ACT for the last 12 months, or show a substantial connection to it; a disability or mental illness alone is not an eligible condition.5 Jun 2024 ↗

- ✓Births, Deaths and Marriages Registration Amendment Bill 2023Amends the Births, Deaths and Marriages Registration Act 1997 to remove administrative barriers for transgender and gender-diverse people changing their registered sex or name: young people aged 14 and over may apply directly to the registrar-general (previously 16 and over), a parent may update their own name and parental descriptor on their child's birth certificate, and a parent with sole parental responsibility faces fewer barriers to changing their child's registered name or sex.21 Mar 2024 ↗
Votes are shown as the official record lists them — Hansard federally and in New South Wales; Votes and Proceedings, Minutes of the Proceedings and Hansard in Victoria; the Record of Proceedings in Queensland; the Votes and Proceedings and Minutes of Proceedings in Western Australia; the Votes and Proceedings (House of Assembly) and Hansard (Legislative Council) in South Australia; the Votes and Proceedings of both chambers in Tasmania. "Did not vote" means the member held the seat that day and is on neither list — the record says who was in the chamber, not why, so it is never an abstention. Western Australia’s record prints no pairs, so a member paired there shows as did not vote. Nothing is shown for a presiding officer who by law gives only a casting vote (the Speaker and the President in South Australia, the President in Tasmania), nor for the member presiding at a Tasmanian division, which Tasmania’s journals record. Which bills sit under which issue is an editorial choice, made bill by bill with a reason read from the second-reading speech. A bill decided by an earlier parliament (Queensland’s 2018 abortion law reform, for one) is shown with that parliament named, read from the official record of the day. For Queensland and the federal parliament “did not vote” there means the member held a seat that day, as their service is recorded; for the other earlier parliaments the record of who held a seat could not be read, so only the printed Aye, No and paired votes are shown.
