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.
Economy & tax own statement
Paul Schofield says "we need to renegotiate existing mining projects to ensure Australia is being compensated for the extrusion of our natural resources" and that the "corporate tax regime at state and federal level has been rorted for the benefit of big multinationals".
Drugs & law and order own statement
Paul Schofield says laws permitting "#stopandsearch #withoutreasonablecause" enable "policing with profiling on the basis of ethnicity", and asks voters to "stand against such laws being introduced in Victoria".
Gambling & gaming reform own statement
Paul Schofield says "The only reason why greyhound racing persists in this state is the parasitic #gambling industry" and that he will fight for "the phased end of dog racing and gambling throughout Victoria".
First Nations & treaty own statement
Paul Schofield says the treaty with First Nations people in Victoria "is a win for everyone as it is a contract, a clear framework for conflict resolution" and "gives businesses certainty".
Integrity & anti-corruption own statement
Paul Schofield says "I’m advocating for when royal commissions are called, their findings must be tabled to parliament" and "We deserve higher standards of #publicaccountability".
Health own statement
Paul Schofield says that if elected he will push for more urgent care clinics "in the greater SE of Melbourne (there are woefully few) and for sexual health service providers to be funded and colocated with them."
Education own statement
Paul Schofield's Greens profile says he is a supporter of "public education (especially adult migration education services and technical and tertiary education)".
Transport & infrastructure own statement
Paul Schofield asks why Sydney can have "protected bicycle lanes with hard barriers between them and cars and a network of lanes designed by city wide #transportplanners" when Melbourne does not, and says "#gimme5 is a good start but I’m demanding for more, and better!"
Energy own statement
Paul Schofield says "Burning coal and gas isn't cost effective, and it's killing us! I'll always support renewable energy over fossil fuels."
Animal welfare own statement
Paul Schofield says he chose to run in Mulgrave to "actively campaign against" greyhound racing, and Sandown in particular, and that he will "fight for the closure of the dog racing park and the phased end of dog racing" throughout Victoria "to best protect the welfare of dogs currently involved".
