Scheduling of the conference

The conference was originally scheduled for 26–28 July. However, on 24 May, the Liberal Speaker of the House of Representatives, Tony Smith, announced that five by-elections — four were caused by the 2017-18 Australian parliamentary eligibility crisis — would be held on 28 July. Labor accused the Speaker of being “disgraceful and sneaky” over the timing, and announced that it would postpone the conference to enable the party to campaign.NEWS,www.abc.net.au/news/2018-05-24/by-elections-date-set-mayo-longman-braddon-perth-fremantle/9758576, Date set for by-elections in Perth, Fremantle, Mayo, Longman and Braddon, Yaxley, Louise, ABC Online, 24 May 2018, 23 September 2018, A week later, the new dates were announced.NEWS,www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2018/may/31/labor-reschedules-national-conference-for-december-after-super-saturday-clash, Labor reschedules national conference for December after Super Saturday clash, Murphy, Katharine, The Guardian (Australia), 31 May 2018, 23 September 2018,
