CAustralian Capital Territory

DVictoria

Select from the options above.

Correct Option: 3  

Explanation:
Australian Capital Territory
Australia has 6 states (New South Wales, Queensland, South Australia, Tasmania, Victoria, and Western Australia) and 2 major mainland territories (Northern Territory and Australian Capital Territory). Federal legislation can override state legislation in certain areas set out in Section 51 of the Australian Constitution, but state parliaments have powers over, for example, education, police, the judiciary, roads, public transport, and local government. However, the Australian Commonwealth Parliament can override any legislation of the parliaments of the Territories.
