Andrews Bill, 1996
There
are few “conscience” votes in the Australian parliament
(members of parliament almost always vote as party blocs). A few years ago
I collected data on passage of the Euthanasia Laws Bill 1996 (the “Andrews

of the bill in the House of Representatives (9 December 1996) is here as
a raw
