A provision in the three waters legislation requiring a sixty percent vote to repeal its protections against privatisation is being called "undemocratic" by the National Party.
The provision is unusual because new governments usually have the option of overturning legislation with a simple majority of parliamentary votes rather than trying to muster a super-majority in the House.
National says it intends to repeal any three waters legislation.
National Party justice spokesperson Paul Goldsmith spoke to Corin Dann.
