Experience Parliament House's exhibition that marks the 80th anniversary of the 1942 Constitutional Convention and the 25th anniversary of the 1998 Constitutional Convention.
The Constitution is Australia's highest law. Any amendment to the Constitution has the capacity to change the way Australia is governed.
On rare occasions, the government has asked representatives of the Australian people to consider amendments and recommend how they might be achieved. These advisers come together in gatherings called Constitutional Conventions.
The 1942 Constitutional Convention discussed an amendment with major implications for the federal government's powers, and the 1998 Constitutional Convention considered whether Australia should become a republic.
Explore these two conventions through reproductions of archival photographs, documents and audio-visual footage at Parliament House's free exhibition.
