Joint Sittings of the Parliament
1. Section 57 A Joint Sitting of both Houses of the Parliament may be held after a simultaneous dissolution of the Parliament under section 57 of the Constitution if the legislative deadlock between the Houses has not been resolved by the election. Following the simultaneous dissolution of both Houses of the Twenty -eighth Parliament on 11 April 1974, a Joint Sitting of both Houses of the Twenty -ninth Parliament was held on 6-7 August 1974, at which the Bills rejected by the Senate were enacted.
2. Appointment of Senators to fill casual vacancies under the Senate (Representation of Territories) Act 1973. Following the death of Senator John William Knight, Senator representing the Australian Capital Territory, a Joint Sitting of both Houses of the Thirty -second Parliament was held on 5 May 1981 to choose a successor under the Senate (Representation of Territories) Act 1973 to fill the casual vacancy. Following the resignation of Senator the Hon. Susan Maree Ryan, Senator representing the Australian Capital Territory, a Joint Sitting of both Houses of the Thirty -fifth Parliament was held on 16 February 1988 to choose a successor under the Senate (Representation of Territories) Act 1973 to fill the casual vacancy. In 1988 the Commonwealth Electoral Act 1918 was amended to provide that casual vacancies for Senators representing the Australian Capital Territory are filled by the Legislative Assembly of the Australian Capital Territory.
3. Joint sitting held during visit by the President of the United States of America. On 2 January 1992 President George Bush of the United States of America addressed a formal meeting of both Houses of Parliament held simultaneously in the House of Representatives Chamber. On 27-28 November 1991 the House of Representatives and the Senate had passed similar resolutions inviting President Bush to address the Parliament during his visit to Australia. No other proceedings occurred at the sitting. Shortly after his re-election on 5 November 1996, President Bill Clinton visited Australia and addressed a formal meeting of both Houses which was held in the House of Representatives Chamber on 20 November 1996.
4. Other addresses to the Parliament.
On 29 November 1951 a delegation from the House of Commons presented a new Mace, in honour of the Jubilee of the Parliament. The delegation was invited into the Chamber, and the leader of the delegation, the Rt Hon. Richard Kidston Law was invited by the Speaker to address the House, and this he duly did.
