Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull's "25-point battle plan" for the new parliament is actually a swag of old measures that failed to pass in the last term, with some policy measures as much as three years old.

As federal MPs returned to Canberra on Monday for party room and caucus meetings ahead of the first sitting of the 45th parliament, Mr Turnbull is attempting to ramp up pressure on Labor, the Greens and the crossbench to pass legislation including the $6.5 billion omnibus savings bill, company tax cuts, a trio of industrial relations bills and media reforms that would abolish the so-called "75 per cent audience reach rule".

Liberal and National MPs will attend a rolling series of meetings throughout Monday to elect a Speaker, choose committee chairs and discuss legislation, including the controversial $6 billion superannuation package.

The so-called 25-point plan - which is actually 25 pieces of legislation - is being touted as an opportunity for the government to reset the agenda.
