Daily Program

The Daily Program is the business agenda for the day. With respect to Government Business, it lists those items that the Government anticipates it will call on. However, this is a guide only and items of Government Business and the order in which they proceed may be subject to change.

A Public Interest Debate takes place in the House at 5.00 pm on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. Government Members submit a topic for debate on Tuesdays, Opposition Members on the first and second Wednesday, and cross bench Members on the third Wednesday.

The Daily Program is published on the morning of each sitting day following approval by the Leader of the House.

The Public Interest Debate topic is usually published shortly after midday.
