Right-wing political party One Nation has applied to change its name back to Pauline Hanson's One Nation.

Ms Hanson formed the party in 1997, but resigned in 2002 because of internal party politics.

She rejoined the party in November and says she intends to put forward candidates in every state at the next federal election.
