1 00:00:00,520 --> 00:00:02,920 Speaker 1: From the Daily Odds. I'm Billy fit Simon's and this 2 00:00:03,000 --> 00:00:06,720 Speaker 1: is no silly Questions. As always, We're doing another Civics 3 00:00:06,800 --> 00:00:11,920 Speaker 1: explainer today and I'm joined by TV extraordinaire Tom Crowley. 4 00:00:12,240 --> 00:00:15,239 Speaker 2: Thanks Billy, you can't see me today, but it's good 5 00:00:15,240 --> 00:00:17,360 Speaker 2: to be here. I note that last week I was 6 00:00:17,400 --> 00:00:19,439 Speaker 2: sounding a little bit husky. This week you're a little 7 00:00:19,560 --> 00:00:22,200 Speaker 2: worse for aware, So I'm going to enjoy the tables. 8 00:00:22,239 --> 00:00:24,119 Speaker 2: Having turned, I feel like I'll be a little bit 9 00:00:24,160 --> 00:00:25,200 Speaker 2: chebbier than you today. 10 00:00:25,280 --> 00:00:26,200 Speaker 3: Maybe i am. 11 00:00:26,239 --> 00:00:29,640 Speaker 1: I've unfortunately got COVID for the second time this year. 12 00:00:29,800 --> 00:00:31,880 Speaker 1: Very unlucky. But it's going to get me down if 13 00:00:31,880 --> 00:00:34,720 Speaker 1: we talk about it for too long. So today's topic 14 00:00:34,800 --> 00:00:36,479 Speaker 1: is probably one of the ones that we get the 15 00:00:36,520 --> 00:00:40,120 Speaker 1: most questions about, and that's the Houses of Parliament and 16 00:00:40,120 --> 00:00:43,680 Speaker 1: more specifically what the difference is between the Senate and 17 00:00:43,840 --> 00:00:46,720 Speaker 1: the House of Representatives. So Tom, we've touched on this 18 00:00:46,880 --> 00:00:49,320 Speaker 1: a little bit before, but can you explain what's different 19 00:00:49,320 --> 00:00:50,640 Speaker 1: about what you're exploring today. 20 00:00:51,080 --> 00:00:53,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, So we've talked about the houses in the context 21 00:00:53,680 --> 00:00:56,920 Speaker 2: of the election, right and we've explained who we're voting for. 22 00:00:57,280 --> 00:00:59,080 Speaker 2: But of course once we vote for them. They've got 23 00:00:59,080 --> 00:01:01,120 Speaker 2: to do something. And to days kind of about that. 24 00:01:01,160 --> 00:01:03,720 Speaker 2: What do they do these people that we elect, and 25 00:01:03,760 --> 00:01:05,840 Speaker 2: how does the business of government get done? 26 00:01:06,040 --> 00:01:08,560 Speaker 1: All right, let's get into the sixty second answer. Your 27 00:01:08,600 --> 00:01:10,520 Speaker 1: time starts now. 28 00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:13,560 Speaker 2: So we've got our two houses, the House of Representatives 29 00:01:13,600 --> 00:01:14,319 Speaker 2: and the Senate. 30 00:01:14,480 --> 00:01:15,800 Speaker 3: First, the House of Reps. 31 00:01:15,840 --> 00:01:17,760 Speaker 2: As we've said before, it's made up of one hundred 32 00:01:17,760 --> 00:01:21,240 Speaker 2: and fifty one local representatives. It's where government is formed. 33 00:01:21,280 --> 00:01:24,199 Speaker 2: Whoever controls the majority of those one hundred and fifty 34 00:01:24,240 --> 00:01:27,319 Speaker 2: one and it tends to be one of the major parties. Now, 35 00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:30,800 Speaker 2: the business of parliament billy is pretty simple. It makes laws. 36 00:01:30,840 --> 00:01:32,800 Speaker 2: They do a bunch of other theatrical stuff. They ask 37 00:01:32,800 --> 00:01:35,279 Speaker 2: each other questions, but the main thing is they make laws, 38 00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:37,880 Speaker 2: and the House of Reps is where that starts. So 39 00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:40,840 Speaker 2: bills are introduced, and bills are just proposals for new 40 00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:43,280 Speaker 2: laws or for new spending that have to get voted on, 41 00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:45,560 Speaker 2: and they've got to get a majority first in the 42 00:01:45,560 --> 00:01:49,200 Speaker 2: House of Representatives. Now, technically anyone can introduce a bill, 43 00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:51,960 Speaker 2: but as the government who controls the majority. Most often 44 00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:54,360 Speaker 2: it is the government that does bills to achieve its 45 00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:56,880 Speaker 2: own agenda. But also just to pass all the ordinary, 46 00:01:56,920 --> 00:02:00,760 Speaker 2: uncontroversial things that government does past the House of Representatives, 47 00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:02,480 Speaker 2: and you go to the Senate, which we know is 48 00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:05,880 Speaker 2: the state's house people representing states and territories. It tends 49 00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:07,680 Speaker 2: to have a lot more minor parties and a much 50 00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:11,360 Speaker 2: more colorful composition. The government doesn't usually control the Senate, 51 00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:12,760 Speaker 2: so it's got a little bit of a difficult time 52 00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:15,040 Speaker 2: because the Senate also has to vote on any bill 53 00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:17,040 Speaker 2: for it to become the law. If the Senate says no, 54 00:02:17,480 --> 00:02:19,080 Speaker 2: back to the drawing board, the bill has to be 55 00:02:19,160 --> 00:02:22,400 Speaker 2: changed or amended, and it doesn't become law until both 56 00:02:22,440 --> 00:02:25,919 Speaker 2: houses agree. So even though our main focus in this election, 57 00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:27,720 Speaker 2: Billy might be on the House of Reps and who's 58 00:02:27,720 --> 00:02:29,200 Speaker 2: going to be the government, who's going to be the 59 00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:31,960 Speaker 2: prime minister, it takes two to tango. The Senate also 60 00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:34,320 Speaker 2: has a very important role to play. I think that'll 61 00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:35,400 Speaker 2: do for my first answer. 62 00:02:35,440 --> 00:02:37,840 Speaker 1: How let go Well, in the words of Abby Chatfield, 63 00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:39,239 Speaker 1: I would say that that was a lot. 64 00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:41,519 Speaker 3: Hello Abby, if you're listening, But let's. 65 00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:44,680 Speaker 1: Start with the House of Representatives. Why is that the 66 00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:47,560 Speaker 1: main one and why is that the place where government 67 00:02:47,639 --> 00:02:48,200 Speaker 1: is formed? 68 00:02:49,120 --> 00:02:49,320 Speaker 3: Yeah? 69 00:02:49,320 --> 00:02:51,760 Speaker 2: I think this question of why is a really good 70 00:02:51,880 --> 00:02:55,200 Speaker 2: place to start. It's sort of a question of convenience, basically, 71 00:02:55,800 --> 00:02:57,680 Speaker 2: And so the House of Reps is where all the 72 00:02:57,720 --> 00:03:01,040 Speaker 2: business of government starts. So I guess it's kind of 73 00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:04,519 Speaker 2: natural that whoever can reliably control it is the one 74 00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:07,880 Speaker 2: that's best placed to be the government. And I'll come 75 00:03:07,919 --> 00:03:10,280 Speaker 2: back to something that I mentioned briefly in that sixty 76 00:03:10,320 --> 00:03:13,040 Speaker 2: second answer, which is that, you know, we often talk 77 00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:16,520 Speaker 2: about the kind of controversial things and disagreements in politics, 78 00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:18,640 Speaker 2: but a lot of what government does and has to 79 00:03:18,639 --> 00:03:22,280 Speaker 2: do is uncontroversial. So, for example, when a new financial 80 00:03:22,360 --> 00:03:25,079 Speaker 2: year comes along, Parliament has to approve that we're still 81 00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:27,800 Speaker 2: actually going to even have the police, or have an army, 82 00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:30,040 Speaker 2: or have any of the things the government does. The 83 00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:32,399 Speaker 2: Parliament's got to approve the money for that. Now it's 84 00:03:32,440 --> 00:03:36,240 Speaker 2: generally pretty controversial, but someone's got to draft it, someone's 85 00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:37,920 Speaker 2: got to introduce it, and someone's got to sort of 86 00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:40,040 Speaker 2: decide the amounts and pass the money. And so again, 87 00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:42,880 Speaker 2: you know, the party that can kind of control a 88 00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:45,440 Speaker 2: majority in the House of Representatives is the best place 89 00:03:45,480 --> 00:03:49,120 Speaker 2: to kind of manage that business of government. And of course, 90 00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:51,720 Speaker 2: sometimes as we've discussed on the show before. The major 91 00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:54,240 Speaker 2: party may not have full control themselves. They might be 92 00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:56,680 Speaker 2: reliant on what we call the cross bench, on a 93 00:03:56,680 --> 00:03:59,040 Speaker 2: couple of sort of minor parties or independents to help 94 00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:01,680 Speaker 2: them get over the line. And that's really all about, 95 00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:04,080 Speaker 2: you know, what those minor parties or independents agree to 96 00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:06,680 Speaker 2: do is to just sort of give them that confidence 97 00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:08,800 Speaker 2: to do the ordinary business of government, and they may 98 00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:11,440 Speaker 2: not support them on the more controversial things the government 99 00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:14,240 Speaker 2: wants to do, but yeah, it's all about kind of 100 00:04:14,240 --> 00:04:16,640 Speaker 2: who can kind of keep the wheels of government turning. 101 00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:18,680 Speaker 2: That's kind of why we put this focus on the 102 00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:21,000 Speaker 2: House of Reps. And that's why it's sort of talked 103 00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:22,320 Speaker 2: about as the seat of government. 104 00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:25,120 Speaker 1: Okay, and then there's this Senate, which is also sometimes 105 00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:28,240 Speaker 1: called the upper House. What I want to know is 106 00:04:28,279 --> 00:04:32,039 Speaker 1: why do we even have two separate houses and why 107 00:04:32,080 --> 00:04:34,680 Speaker 1: does a second house exist in the first place, if, 108 00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:37,520 Speaker 1: like you said, it just makes things difficult for the government. 109 00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:40,479 Speaker 2: Yeah, so, in a sense, making things difficult for the 110 00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:42,400 Speaker 2: government is kind of the point of the Senate, and 111 00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:44,240 Speaker 2: it's kind of why we have one. And so if 112 00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:46,599 Speaker 2: you go right back to nineteen oh one, when the 113 00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:49,159 Speaker 2: Parliament was set up, it was coming from a context 114 00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:51,120 Speaker 2: where the states were their own, you know, kind of 115 00:04:51,200 --> 00:04:54,120 Speaker 2: independent things, and they were agreeing to form this national government. 116 00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:56,080 Speaker 2: But there was a little bit of kind of you know, 117 00:04:56,160 --> 00:04:58,720 Speaker 2: skepticism about how much power the national government would have, 118 00:04:58,839 --> 00:05:00,599 Speaker 2: and so they set up this sort of of house 119 00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:03,279 Speaker 2: where the states would be represented, so that the states 120 00:05:03,279 --> 00:05:04,880 Speaker 2: would kind of be able to sort of keep a 121 00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:07,040 Speaker 2: check on the national government, keep a check on these 122 00:05:07,080 --> 00:05:09,720 Speaker 2: local representatives. That's not really how it works now, it's 123 00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:12,080 Speaker 2: more of our political parties. But what's happened instead is 124 00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:15,520 Speaker 2: we get all these sort of colorful crossbenches and minor parties, 125 00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:17,880 Speaker 2: and there are a bunch of different kind of groups 126 00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:21,360 Speaker 2: that the government will have to negotiate with to pass 127 00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:23,920 Speaker 2: anything that it wants to into law. And that's kind 128 00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:27,000 Speaker 2: of a useful check, I guess, on the government. And 129 00:05:27,040 --> 00:05:29,839 Speaker 2: of course, the public can sometimes give the government a 130 00:05:29,880 --> 00:05:32,039 Speaker 2: majority in the Senate. If people really really really love 131 00:05:32,120 --> 00:05:35,120 Speaker 2: the government and they vote for them in both houses 132 00:05:35,279 --> 00:05:37,240 Speaker 2: enough that the government ends up with a majority in 133 00:05:37,279 --> 00:05:38,919 Speaker 2: the Senate, then the government can just sort of do 134 00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:41,440 Speaker 2: whatever it likes. But when there is this sort of 135 00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:43,880 Speaker 2: block in the Senate, and when you've got to work 136 00:05:43,920 --> 00:05:46,600 Speaker 2: with others, I guess it ends up being slightly more 137 00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:49,039 Speaker 2: consensus based, and there's more of an opportunity for the 138 00:05:49,080 --> 00:05:51,600 Speaker 2: Senate to block some of the big things that the 139 00:05:51,640 --> 00:05:53,520 Speaker 2: government wants to do, or to try and amend it 140 00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:56,920 Speaker 2: and to come to kind of a different alternative. And 141 00:05:57,000 --> 00:05:59,919 Speaker 2: so again, sort of a lot of the ordinary, uncontrover 142 00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:02,920 Speaker 2: rcial business of government will go through the Senate without 143 00:06:02,960 --> 00:06:05,360 Speaker 2: anyone opposing it. But when it comes to these sort 144 00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:08,440 Speaker 2: of thorny and controversial issues, the Senate is kind of 145 00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:11,080 Speaker 2: designed in a way to act as it's sometimes talked 146 00:06:11,080 --> 00:06:13,760 Speaker 2: about as the House of Review, and that kind of 147 00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:16,240 Speaker 2: creative tension is sometimes viewed as a healthy thing. 148 00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:20,760 Speaker 1: Okay, And what happens if the two houses absolutely can't agree, 149 00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:21,720 Speaker 1: nothing will get done. 150 00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:25,680 Speaker 2: Right, So suppose the House of Reps passes something and 151 00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:28,039 Speaker 2: the Senate says no, goes back to the House of 152 00:06:28,080 --> 00:06:29,599 Speaker 2: Representatives and the Senate says no. 153 00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:33,280 Speaker 3: Again. The government could just dump it if it wanted to. 154 00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:35,839 Speaker 2: But if it's something sort of really crucial, if there's 155 00:06:35,839 --> 00:06:39,080 Speaker 2: this really crucial standoff between the two houses, then what 156 00:06:39,200 --> 00:06:43,080 Speaker 2: happens is Parliament gets dissolved, which is a dramatic term 157 00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:45,160 Speaker 2: for it basically means that everybody we just go to 158 00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:49,240 Speaker 2: an election again, and so it's what's called a trigger 159 00:06:49,720 --> 00:06:52,880 Speaker 2: for a double dissolution, double being the two houses of Parliament, 160 00:06:52,920 --> 00:06:57,679 Speaker 2: dissolution being dissolved. Basically, if there's disagreement on a particular 161 00:06:57,720 --> 00:06:59,919 Speaker 2: bill twice, the Prime Minister can say this isn't working, 162 00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:02,080 Speaker 2: this is unworkable. The House of Reps can't work with 163 00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:03,880 Speaker 2: the Senate. We need to go to a full election 164 00:07:04,440 --> 00:07:06,440 Speaker 2: and the whole House of Reps gets elected again, but 165 00:07:06,520 --> 00:07:09,360 Speaker 2: not just the House of Reps but also the whole Senate. 166 00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:11,400 Speaker 2: So normally we only elect half the Senate as at 167 00:07:11,440 --> 00:07:13,400 Speaker 2: a time, but in a double dissolution, the whole thing 168 00:07:14,200 --> 00:07:16,680 Speaker 2: gets re elected all at once, and so that does 169 00:07:16,720 --> 00:07:19,320 Speaker 2: happen sometimes that there are these sorts of disagreements between 170 00:07:19,320 --> 00:07:21,760 Speaker 2: the houses and the Prime Minister goes to the Governor 171 00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:23,480 Speaker 2: General and says, no, we need to start from scratch. 172 00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:25,120 Speaker 2: We need to ask the Australian public to give us 173 00:07:25,120 --> 00:07:27,320 Speaker 2: a whole new parliament because this isn't working. So that's 174 00:07:27,360 --> 00:07:29,480 Speaker 2: kind of the dramatic endpoint when there's a lot of 175 00:07:29,480 --> 00:07:31,520 Speaker 2: tension between the House of Reps and the Senate doesn't 176 00:07:31,520 --> 00:07:33,760 Speaker 2: happen that often, but it did happen only a few 177 00:07:33,840 --> 00:07:35,840 Speaker 2: years ago, so it's not inconceivable. 178 00:07:36,200 --> 00:07:39,040 Speaker 1: And just lastly, while we're on the topic of political jargon, 179 00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:41,040 Speaker 1: there is one more thing I want to ask about, 180 00:07:41,040 --> 00:07:43,480 Speaker 1: and that's the cabinet. It's a word you hear a 181 00:07:43,480 --> 00:07:45,960 Speaker 1: lot when you're talking about the government. Can you explain 182 00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:48,840 Speaker 1: what it is and how it fits into these two houses? 183 00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:51,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, so which house has the cabinet in it? In 184 00:07:51,320 --> 00:07:54,560 Speaker 2: other words, the answer is kind of both. So I 185 00:07:54,600 --> 00:07:56,480 Speaker 2: guess kind of what's missing in all of this is 186 00:07:56,520 --> 00:07:59,200 Speaker 2: sort of, you know, what actually constitutes the government and 187 00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:01,560 Speaker 2: how does the government actually come up with the ideas 188 00:08:01,680 --> 00:08:04,480 Speaker 2: for the bills and the laws that it wants to 189 00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:05,960 Speaker 2: pass and all the stuff that it wants to put 190 00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:09,480 Speaker 2: through parliament. That's where the cabinet comes in. And the 191 00:08:09,520 --> 00:08:12,560 Speaker 2: cabinet is made up of ministers led by the Prime Minister. 192 00:08:12,640 --> 00:08:14,240 Speaker 2: But there'll be a Minister for Health, and there's a 193 00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:17,520 Speaker 2: minister for Education and ministers for all sorts of different things, 194 00:08:18,760 --> 00:08:22,560 Speaker 2: and the Prime Minister gets to decide generally who is 195 00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:25,360 Speaker 2: in the cabinet. And it's sort of an informal arrangement, 196 00:08:25,360 --> 00:08:28,040 Speaker 2: so it is mentioned in the Constitution, but it's not 197 00:08:28,120 --> 00:08:31,520 Speaker 2: specified that it has to be kind of other government MPs. 198 00:08:31,640 --> 00:08:35,360 Speaker 2: Technically even the Prime Minister could come from from the Senate. 199 00:08:35,400 --> 00:08:38,000 Speaker 2: That doesn't normally happen, but the Prime Minister is allowed 200 00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:40,040 Speaker 2: to call basically anyone they wanted. They could call someone 201 00:08:40,080 --> 00:08:41,920 Speaker 2: from the opposition, they could call someone who's not even 202 00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:44,520 Speaker 2: a politician if they wanted. But what generally happens is 203 00:08:44,520 --> 00:08:46,800 Speaker 2: they pick a bunch of other members of Parliament, either 204 00:08:46,840 --> 00:08:48,880 Speaker 2: from the House of Reps or the Senate, to sort 205 00:08:48,920 --> 00:08:52,640 Speaker 2: of you know, government MPs to form their cabinet, and 206 00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:55,040 Speaker 2: they sign out what's called the portfolios, which are the 207 00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:58,800 Speaker 2: subject areas, and each minister has responsibility for kind of 208 00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:01,680 Speaker 2: working with the relevant parts of the public service, working 209 00:09:01,679 --> 00:09:04,240 Speaker 2: with their advisors to actually do the detailed work of 210 00:09:04,679 --> 00:09:06,880 Speaker 2: developing the policies, figuring out what they're going to be, 211 00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:09,880 Speaker 2: getting down to specifics, and making sure I guess that 212 00:09:10,360 --> 00:09:13,560 Speaker 2: bills are ready to go before the Parliament. They're doing 213 00:09:13,600 --> 00:09:15,840 Speaker 2: all the other things that ministers might do. So some 214 00:09:15,880 --> 00:09:19,920 Speaker 2: ministers have discretion over particular areas. For example, the Immigration 215 00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:22,720 Speaker 2: Minister gets to make kind of individual decisions about people's 216 00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:24,559 Speaker 2: visas that don't need parliament. So there are lots of 217 00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:29,840 Speaker 2: different responsibilities that different ministers have, but broadly speaking, there 218 00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:32,760 Speaker 2: they're drawn from government MPs and they do the kind 219 00:09:32,800 --> 00:09:34,800 Speaker 2: of business of getting all the stuff ready before it 220 00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:37,320 Speaker 2: comes to parliament. So that's kind of where the cabinet 221 00:09:37,360 --> 00:09:37,800 Speaker 2: fits in. 222 00:09:37,960 --> 00:09:39,959 Speaker 1: All right, I think that's all we have time for 223 00:09:40,160 --> 00:09:42,960 Speaker 1: political one oh one.
