We believe any decision to take Australia into international armed conflict should be made by the Parliament, and not by the PM or the Executive alone.
The campaign for reform
The decision to go to war is one of the most serious choices any government will face. The cost to the nation can be enormous, often with unknown consequences.
Australia needs a better process where robust debate and a parliamentary vote is held before deciding whether troops are sent into overseas conflict.
Australians for War Powers Reform (AWPR) launched the No War Without Parliament campaign so any decision to take Australia into international armed conflict should be made by our Parliament, not by the PM or the Executive.
