Extradite, waterboard, soletary confinement, sleep deprivation... The only positive thing is it would set a nice precedent for corrupt Parliament members.
The House of Representatives is what I think is being thought of :-)
Sorry to pile on, but as an aside, in the Senate it's all red, and in the House of Representatives it's Royal Red. In Australia, exit signs are green - everywhere except in the senate, which apparently amended legislation to my the sign red.
Given their preference for red, however, one wonders why there are so many of The Greens in the Senate.
Don't apologise, there's always someone ready to correct you when the mood strikes!
Speaking of taking undue care, I always ensure I double check the word "pedantry" when typing it into a text box via an iPad, lest the "n" turn into an "s".
A suspected criminal is a suspected criminal; I don't know what the tradition is in Oz, but wouldn't they vote (present a majority) to nullify any diplomatic immunity?
I know about cases in parliamentary democracies where someone's immunity has been nullified - assuming they have it in Australia - but only in domestic disputes, not international.
Australia does not have immunity for Parliamentarians.
Immunity is mostly a feature of countries with fully separated powers.
In fused Parliamentary systems it makes less sense to worry about the infringements of the Executive upon the Legislative, because the Executive is subsidiary to the Legislative.
I believe only one, Bobby Sands, was elected to Parliament. The government quickly introduced the Representation of the People Act (1981)[1], to prevent prisoners serving terms longer than a year from being nominated/elected in the future.
