Scullin, a former Prime Minister, suggested in the House of Representatives that the Commonwealth Government should hold a constitutional session of Parliament in order to draw up proposals for submission to the electors for the recasting of the Federal constitution. Mr. Scullin said that sooner or later Australians would be forced to adopt a unified system of government and the people should be given an opportunity to decide whether Australia was to be ruled by one sovereign Parliament.
