Parliamentary entitlements: Former MPs fight to keep lifetime ‘gold pass’ travel perks

Former federal MPs are fighting to keep hold of their lifetime “gold pass” travel perks, warning of a High Court challenge if the Government pushes ahead with changes.

The Association of Former MPs warns that retrospectively stripping members of that entitlement would be unconstitutional, because it amounts to “unjust” acquisition of property.

Labor backs moves to abolish pass another bipartisan move. So so unlike  Abbott in opposition. So unlike Abbott tearing down the house.
