This week on Fridays with Francis, we delve into the murky world of omnibus bills. These bills often hide significant changes in plain sight. For instance, in Queensland, the Child Protection Amendment Bill surprisingly includes provisions to legalise street soliciting for prostitution.
In NSW, MP Alex Greenwich’s Equality Amendment Bill aims to permit explicit public acts, even near sensitive locations like schools and hospitals.
These bills are eroding public trust in democracy. Both parliamentarians and citizens must actively engage to bring transparency and accountability.
