Rank-and-file Victorian Liberal party members will use this month’s state council meeting to push for a regulated cannabis market for adult use, overhaul heritage and planning laws to tackle the housing crisis and introduce a full year of parental leave with a “daddy quota”.

The motions are among 62 on the draft agenda for the Victorian Liberal state council - the party’s annual general meeting - on 12-13 September. Other motions include proposals to scrap net zero targets, renters’ rights reforms and diversity quotas.
