Official text

Chances of passing

Worked out from the bill's type, its stage and the government's verified standing; for a federal bill, its passage range sets the band. It is not a guarantee.

Unlikely to pass because it's a private member's bill (which rarely passes) and it's outside the order of precedence.

Historically 0–5% of comparable federal bills became law (base rate 4%).

If this private member's bill would create new spending, it needs a Royal Recommendation, which only Cabinet can give. Without one, it will almost certainly not pass.

A private member's bill depends on its place in the Order of Precedence, set by a random draw, and bills low on the list often run out of time.
