Federal politicians are preparing to go head-to-head on policy issues in a series of election campaign debates.
Prime Minister Scott Morrison and Labor leader Bill Shorten will have their first one-on-one debate in Perth next Monday, which will kick off the third week of campaigning for the May 18 election.
The National Press Club in Canberra will play host to a number of head-to-head debates, beginning next Thursday with Health Minister Greg Hunt and Labor's health spokeswoman Catherine King.
Treasurer Josh Frydenberg will also debate shadow treasurer Chris Bowen on May 6 at the venue.
Just two days later the Press Club will host Agriculture Minister David Littleproud and the Labor MP vying for the role, Joel Fitzgibbon.
President of the National Press Club Sabra Lane says more policy debates are being negotiated.
Leaders are also set to give individual addresses, beginning with Nationals boss Michael McCormack next Tuesday and Greens leader Richard Di Natale the following day.
Mr Morrison and Mr Shorten will also speak at the National Press Club in the final week of the campaign, which begins May 13.
