[QUOTE="Philip_B, post: 77360090, member: 389027"] In part I agree with you and I certainly see where you are coming form, however, I would highlight section 63 for Chapter 2 [HEADING=1][INDENT]63. Provisions referring to Governor-General[/INDENT][/HEADING] [INDENT]The provisions of this Constitution referring to the Governor-General in Council shall be construed as referring to the Governor-General acting with the advice of the Federal Executive Council.[/INDENT] This makes plain that the Governor General does not exercise the same role as the American President, but rather acts with the advice of the Federal Executive Council. There is no meaningful sense in which the wording allows unprecedented access and influence. Section 70 effectively discusses the relationship between the Governors of the States and the Governor General. The effective amount of real power the Governors or Governor General have is relatively minimal and largely procedural. The value of the Voice consulting with the Governor General is essentially mute, given that the seat of pragmatic power lies with the Prime Minister and Cabinet, and ultimately with all the people of Australia.
