The Coalition will move to force the Albanese government to bring in an airline passenger compensation scheme that would make carriers pay delayed customers, in a bill dubbed “pay on delay”.
On Friday, opposition transport spokesperson and Nationals senator, Bridget McKenzie, and Liberal senator Dean Smith gave notice of their intention to move “a bill for an Act to require the transport minister to make rules prescribing carriers’ obligations, and for related purposes” when parliament returns later this month.
