The Parliamentary Standards and Accountability Act 2026 is a POP Framework statute focused on the Remuneration Pillar. It modernises parliamentary salary settings, accountability obligations, electorate office operations, and government‑authorised communications standards. The Act replaces outdated and inconsistent rules with clear, principle‑driven provisions covering base salary, CPI adjustments, presence expectations, authorised communication requirements, electorate office conduct, and accountability settings aligned with POP principles.

Designed for policymakers, governance professionals, and parliamentary administrators, it provides a structured model for POP‑aligned remuneration practice and modern parliamentary operations. This edition supports training, policy development, legislative modelling, and institutional design within the POP constitutional standards environment.
