Referendums are used to give citizens a direct vote on specific issues or decisions, promoting direct democracy and increasing citizens' involvement in the decision-making process. They can be a tool to gauge public opinion on important matters and help ensure that government actions align with the will of the people.

Why are referendums held in Australia?

They are held because Australia is a democracy, and public opinion should decide yes or no on a given issue. In Western Australia we have had a long and tiresome debate (and 2 referendums) about daylight saving. In both referendums the public said no, but it went ahead anyway. We are about to have a third referendum on daylight saving. I don't understand why they are holding referendums that cost the public millions, when it seems to be already decided that the public's opinion will be ignored.
