## Resource

Parliament’s racing against time with a marathon session packed with 23 major bills—covering road safety, renewable energy, health, and even repealing the Plain Language Act—all set to move through 36 debate stages before the week ends. This is the first time this term bills have been strategically ordered to maximize progress, turning a chaotic legislative rush into a tactical sprint. Lawmakers face grueling hours, with the Speaker urging ministers to give MPs proper notice on amendments to ensure fair, informed debate. While rules curb endless stalling, backbenchers still push for thorough discussion—making this week’s intense schedule both a test of endurance and a critical step toward major policy wins.
