Voting record

Every vote must state a public reason. Most recent first.

Conservative Union
Voted March 29, 2020
No

“While we support certain parts of this legislation, banning all corporate collection is not appropriate”

Dockworkers Union
Voted March 21, 2020
Yes

“We support stronger protections for workers, tougher lobbying rules, enhanced privacy rights, and equal access to public services for all residents. We believe personal data belongs to individuals, not corporations, and should never be treated as a commercial asset. However, we cannot support a completely unregulated internet. Freedom online is essential, but it must be balanced with measures against criminal activity, fraud, exploitation, and other illegal content. With sensible safeguards in place, we believe this bill is a significant step towards a fairer, more democratic, and more worker-friendly Port Avalon.”
