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 Senate public bill (which rarely passes) and it's at an early stage.

Adjusted for this bill's current pace: 10–25% (the unadjusted historical base rate for comparable federal bills is 19%). It has gone quiet at this stage; the adjustment for that delay still leaves the historical rate inside the range.

Stages so far

  1. Second reading, Senate

  2. First reading, Senate
