The final step is for the Governor-General to give Royal Assent to the Bill after it has been passed by both Houses of Parliament.
The Governor-General represents the King in Australia. For a Bill to become an official law, it must be signed by the Governor-General after it has been passed by both the House of Representatives and the Senate. This process is known as 'Royal Assent'.
