1
opportunities to improve public awareness and education about the Australian Constitution;
2
suggestions for mechanisms to review the Australian Constitution and for community consultation on any proposed amendments before they are put to a referendum;
3
the effectiveness of the arrangements for the conduct of referendums set out in the Referendum (Machinery Provisions) Act 1984 and the need for any amendments; and
4
any other related matters.
