Coulton appointed Chief Nationals Whip
15-September-2010
Federal Member for Parkes Mark Coulton has welcomed his appointment as Chief Nationals Whip.
“It is a great honour to be asked to serve as the Chief Nationals Whip, particularly with the increased representation of the Nationals in the Australian Parliament following last month’s election,” he said.
“Given the very finely balanced make-up of the new Parliament this role will be critically important in ensuring this fragmented Labor Government is held to account.
“I look forward to meeting the challenges and responsibility that come with this position.”
