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.

- ✓Local Government Amendment (Rating of Certain Mining Licences) Bill 2025Makes land held under a mining miscellaneous licence (typically roads, pipelines and other infrastructure serving a mine) or a small prospecting licence on crown land exempt from council rates, whether or not it is occupied, reversing the effect of a July 2025 Supreme Court ruling. Rates and related charges councils imposed on these licences from 2017–18 to 2025–26 are cancelled, pending objections and court cases about them end, councils cannot back-rate them, and any rates already paid must be refunded within 28 days. Other mining tenements on the same land stay rateable.16 Jun 2026 ↗

- ✗Assisted Reproductive Technology and Surrogacy Bill 2025Replaces Western Australia's three assisted reproduction and surrogacy Acts with one. Access to IVF and surrogacy no longer requires medical infertility, so single people and same-sex couples can use them; reciprocal IVF and fertility preservation are allowed. Surrogacy no longer needs the Reproductive Technology Council's approval, but the parties must get independent legal advice and counselling first; commercial surrogacy and trade in eggs, sperm and embryos stay banned. All donor-conceived people get a right to information about their donor, the council is replaced by an advisory and review board, clinics are licensed by the Department of Health's chief executive, and a surviving partner can use a deceased person's reproductive material where the person consented, or with the board's approval where there was no consent either way.3 Dec 2025 ↗

- ✗Conservation and Land Management Amendment Bill 2025Writes the end of commercial logging in Western Australia's native forests into law. Timber production on a sustained yield basis is removed as a purpose for which state forest and timber reserves can be set aside, and regulations can no longer make it one; removing salvage forest products in the circumstances the regulations set out can continue. Also lets the Conservation and Parks Commission meet remotely and makes the Act's schedule gender-neutral.27 May 2025 ↗

- ✓State Development Bill 2025Creates a Coordinator General, a statutory office, to speed up approvals for projects the government designates as priority projects and for declared state development areas. For a priority project the Coordinator General can set timeframes for public authorities to finish their work and issue notices that decision-makers must consider, and the minister, with the Premier's approval, can make orders modifying other laws' approval processes for it; an order cannot exempt a project from holding its key approvals, and orders are tabled in Parliament and can be disallowed. State development areas get their own plans, made after public consultation. The Environmental Protection Authority, the Planning Commission and the Aboriginal Cultural Heritage Committee stay independent, and the Aboriginal Heritage Act is outside the bill's broad powers except for timeframe notices.11 Dec 2025 ↗

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.
