General news0

This clause is vague. It implies the Governor General may dissolve the Parliament, but does not

spellout the conditions underwhich he may do so.  It would cause a monumental Constitutional Crisis, Constutional Lawyers

should examine this clause very carefully

COMMONWEALTH OF AUSTRALIA CONSTITUTION ACT – SECT 28

Duration of House of Representatives

                   Every House of Representatives shall continue for three years from the first meeting of the House, and no longer, but may be sooner dissolved by the Governor‑General.
