I understand they won't hold a position within the upper or lower house but is it incorrect to say they won't hold a position in parliament?

it is not correct. a position IN parliament is a very different thing; the voice is effectively a lobby group. The kind of thing BHP and Chanel 9 get without being a valuable part of Australia
