The 1981 New South Wales referendum was held on 19 September 1981, the same day as the state election. The referendum contained two questions:
- Do you approve a Bill for an Act to extend the maximum period between general elections for the Legislative Assembly from 3 years to 4 years?[2]
- Do you approve a Bill for an Act to require Members of Parliament to disclose certain pecuniary interests and other matters?[3]
Amendments to the constitution
The primary change by the proposal to extend the maximum term was to alter section 7B of the Constitution Act 1902 to provide for a maximum term of 4 years rather than 3.[4]
The proposal to require Members of Parliament to disclose pecuniary interests was to add section 14A to the Constitution Act 1902 which provided that
- the Governor could make regulations requiring members of parliament to disclose their pecuniary interests;
- the relevant house of parliament could declare a seat vacant if the member wilfully contravened any regulation; and
- the regulations could only be disallowed by both houses of parliament.[5]
Results
Both questions were approved with large majorities.
