Compare how Glenn Lazarus and Doug Cameron voted on letting environmental groups challenge the legality of certain government decisions
Glenn Lazarus
Former Independent Senator for Queensland March 2015 – May 2016
Doug Cameron
Former Australian Labor Party Senator for NSW July 2008 – July 2019
How they voted compared with each other and someone who agrees that environmental and conservation groups should be able to challenge the legality of federal government decisions made under the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 (EPBC Act) (in other words, they should have standing to seek judicial review under that Act)
Now this is where it gets a bit tricky… Two people might vote the same way on votes they both attended, so their votes are 100% in agreement. They might also have voted in a way we’d describe differently when looking at all of one person's votes. If the other person didn’t or couldn’t have attended those votes we leave those out of the comparison. Because that just wouldn’t be fair now, would it?
