HOW DO I ENROL TO VOTE?
If you need to enrol to vote for the first time or you have changed your address, you will need to fill out an electoral enrolment form. This can be downloaded from the Australian Electoral Commission’s website www.aec.gov.au. The AEC manages enrolments in federal, state and local government elections. If you have questions about voting, elections or electorates you will probably find the information by visiting the AEC website.

PETITIONS
Petitioning is one of the traditional forms by which citizens can make requests direct to Parliament. A Petition is a formal request signed by at least one person and placed before the Parliament with the object of persuading the Parliament to take some particular action. For example, a petition may request the alteration of the general law or the re-consideration of some administrative decision. There are two forms of petitioning available: E Petitions and Paper Petitions.
Click here to access information and the process for E-Petitions, to find out information about its status and, if it is a current E-Petition, join the E-Petition. The web site also provides information to assist you with starting an E-Petition, including an Information Brochure E-Petition Request Form and Members of Parliament contact details.
The Paper Petitions process is essentially the same petitions process that has been operating in Queensland for over 140 years. It involves a Paper Petition being circulated in the community for signatures and then lodged by a Member of the Legislative Assembly. The Member of Parliament ensures that the petition conforms with the rules. The Member places their signature on the top of the first page of the petition, and indicates the total number of signatures contained in the petition.
If you would like to lodge a paper petition, please contact our office and we can assist you with the procedure and format.
