What happens in the senate after a double dissolution?
Q. On normal elections, half the senate is dissolved and the other half stay, in turn giving senators a 6 year term. But what decides who gets a 3 year term and who gets a 6 year term after a double dissolution?
Asked by itsjustme - Wed Dec 2 01:04:47 2009 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments
A. In the event of a deadlock in Parliament the Prime Minister could approach the Governor General to seek the dissolution of Parliament. Then an election is held. In this election all of the Senators face election at the same time. If a double dissolution election were to take place such that the Senators were elected in the year before 1 July 2010, their term would commence from 1 July 2009. The short term Senators would then be up for election during the year 1 July 2011 to 30 June 2012 (Constitution s.13). I hope this helps @
