The role of the pressure group is to voice the rights of Australians before the law - a form of social change and governance.

Pressure groups can be short lived to protest or object to an issue. [Not all pressures result in an issue.]

Or they can continue as an organisation able to achieve full government support and legitimacy as a governance approach body. This is called devolved authority and it applies at all levels of governance - individual, community, regional, national or international.

[A landholder protesting against the application of legislation is an example of individual pressure.]

Pressure groups encourage two way dissemination of government policy - thereby raising the popularity of political outcomes.

Win-Win outcomes are the main aim of pressure groups, but mutually exclusive options may result in difficult issue outcomes requiring mediation.
