One Nation Policies on Issues Affecting Australia

One Nation Policies

Our Policy on Important Issues

Family Tax Policy

One Nation’s joint income tax filing policy allows couples with at least one dependent child to combine their income and split it equally for tax purposes, delivering significant savings for families. For example, a single earner making $120,000 could save $9533 annually under this system. This policy encourages parents to care for their own children, reduces the government’s childcare costs, and supports home schooling, giving families more financial flexibility and independence.

Slash Government Waste

One Nation's bold $90 billion Budget Savings Plan is designed to eliminate wasteful government spending, streamline federal functions, and redirect funds towards initiatives that benefit everyday Australians. By cutting unnecessary departments, reforming the NDIS, withdrawing from costly international agreements, and reducing duplication in government operations, this plan delivers a financially sustainable approach to tackle Australia's rising debt. These savings will enable investment in nation-building infrastructure, reduce interest payments on debt, and provide relief to taxpayers. One Nation's plan positions Australia for a stronger, self-reliant, and prosperous future.

Free Speech Policy

One Nation is committed to enshrining free speech in Australia’s Constitution, ensuring all Australians can speak freely without fear of censorship or government overreach. As the only party to hold a Free Speech Conference this term and lead nationwide protests against speech restrictions, we are taking real action. Senator Pauline Hanson is pushing for a referendum to protect free speech, while One Nation continues to fight against censorship, speech regulations, and bureaucratic silencing of dissenting voices. A free country depends on free speech, and we will always defend your right to express, debate, and be heard.

Water

Pauline Hanson's One Nation will build new water infrastructure projects, including dams and increase the supply to Australian farmers and our growing nation. The party will also legislate the full disclosure of water ownership and ban the sale of water to foreign investors.

Australian Jobs and Infrastructure

Pauline Hanson's One Nation supports jobs for Australians first and foremost. In an effort to bolster homegrown tradesmen and women, One Nation will increase its national apprenticeship scheme.

New Housing

One Nation's GST moratorium on building materials is a bold policy designed to reduce housing costs, support the struggling construction industry, and help more Australians achieve homeownership. With building material prices soaring over 200% since the COVID-19 pandemic, One Nation is calling for a five-year GST exemption on materials for new homes up to $1 million, a review of excessive government fees, and the removal of costly mandatory disability compliance regulations. This initiative aims to boost affordability, strengthen the construction sector, and cut unnecessary government waste.

Cost of Living Measures

One Nation’s comprehensive Cost of Living Measures tackle the financial pressures faced by Australians with immediate, targeted solutions. From slashing electricity bills by 20% through changes to the National Electricity Market to halving the fuel excise and reducing freight costs, these policies bring relief to households and businesses alike. Tax reforms, including raising the tax-free threshold and enabling income splitting for families, provide additional financial support, while healthcare measures like boosting Medicare rebates and cracking down on fraud ensure accessible, affordable care. These initiatives address immediate cost pressures and lay the foundation for long-term economic stability and efficiency.

Citizen Initiated Referenda

One Nation will push for the introduction of a Citizens Initiated Referenda, enabling Australian citizens to put forward legislation or a referendum question without waiting for politicians to listen and act.

Climate

Pauline Hanson's One Nation believes that climate research needs to continue, but after thirty years of work by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) there is insufficient evidence of global warming of the kind claimed by the IPCC and there is insufficient evidence of the climate catastrophes predicted. We are the only political party to question climate science. One Nation Senators have taken every opportunity to use the Senate Estimates cycle, to understand the position of government advisers on climate science like CSIRO.

Family Law and Child Support

Pauline Hanson's One Nation believes it is imperative that Australia’s Family Law system is made fairer to discourage expensive, adversarial court action.

Farming

One Nation will ban any further sale of freehold farmland to foreign investors and limit the sale of leasehold farmland to 25 years. One Nation will also reimplement Foreign Investment Review Board applications on all Agricultural Land from expiring Free Trade Agreements. We strongly support the re-establishment of a Federal Government backed rural lending fund to safeguard Australian farmers throughout drought and other natural weather events.

Foreign Ownership

One Nation will pursue urgent reform to Australia’s foreign investment rules by legislating a clear definition of ‘National Interest' based on national security, competition, tax, a character test, and any other impacts to Australia. Essential services including power, water, telecommunications, roadways, and ports would be off-limits to foreign investors. With a crucial shortage of housing stock in Australia, we must stop the sale of property to non-residents and non-citizens.

Education

Australia continues to rank lower than comparable high- and middle-income countries in achieving quality education outcomes despite a $24.8 billion budget for state education services. One Nation will restore critical thinking in the classroom and reinstate the cornerstones of education.

Immigration

Australia’s immigration system is broken. Our population has surged past 27 million, overwhelming housing, infrastructure, and essential services. Wages are stagnating, homeownership is slipping out of reach, and Australians are being forced to compete with cheap foreign labour.

Medical Cannabis

Whole plant medicinal cannabis continues to act as a natural, proven alternative for chronic pain relief and other serious health symptoms experienced by Australians. One Nation remains at the forefront of advocacy within the federal parliament and will continue our push to bring the cost of access down.

Stop the Rorts

Rorting of our health and welfare systems is happening because individuals cannot be positively identified. This is causing a drain on our taxpayer-funded services.

Multinational Taxation

One Nation will oppose increased GST and reintroduction of death duties, and is in favour of ensuring multinationals operating in Australia pay their fair share of tax.

Firearms Ownership

One Nation supports responsible gun ownership and will preserve the current laws which allow law abiding citizens access to firearms, whether it be for work, farming or sports-related activities. We do not believe that further stringent measures or regulations are required regarding licensing. One Nation calls for stricter border security and tougher sentencing for gun crimes and traffickers.

Health

Australia’s health system was beyond capacity prior to COVID-19 and evidently inadequate in regional parts of the nation. One Nation recognises the need to bolster the number of regional doctors, nurses, and other critical health professionals. In an effort to encourage better regional medical services, One Nation will introduce three-year contracts for newly qualified medical professionals and in return pay their HECS-HELP loans in full.

COVID-19 Policy

Pauline Hanson's One Nation opposes COVID-19 vaccine mandates on Australian citizens. One Nation will continue its push for a Royal Commission into the management of the COVID-19 pandemic by Australian governments.

Pro-Life

Pauline Hanson’s One Nation acknowledges the scientific fact that a human being’s life begins in the womb. We were horrified when State Governments passed legislation which legalised abortion up until birth for any reason. This law is one of the most extreme in the western world. One Nation will seek every opportunity to roll back brutal and extreme abortion law so that both unborn babies and pregnant women will have a level of legal and medical protection once again.

Fisheries

One Nation defends Australians' right to fish and backs our seafood industry with policies to reduce fuel costs, stop foreign takeovers, boost local jobs, and ensure sustainable fish stocks.

Forestry

One Nation is pushing for timber self-sufficiency by expanding forestry plantations, supporting local timber use, cutting GST on materials, and protecting regional jobs—while cracking down on illegal imports and reducing energy costs for timber mills.
