New Greens leader Adam Bandt hopes he is the last person in his job elected just by the parliamentary party, backing calls for members to have a say in future leadership votes.

Mr Bandt, who was elected unopposed as Richard di Natale's replacement on Tuesday, told The Sydney Morning Herald and The Age his personal view was that "members should be able to have a vote for party leader, together with party MPs".

Some Greens members have been pushing for a say in the leadership for several years, with the party's national conference set to decide the issue by May. Mr Bandt, a former industrial relations lawyer, said: "I see no reason to think it won't be resolved by then."

During his first press conference as leader, Mr Bandt came out swinging against the Morrison government, saying he wanted to build pressure on the Coalition to "act on climate change or go". He declared his aim was for the Greens to secure the balance of power in both houses of Parliament at the next federal election.
