Parliamentary Friends of Soil
The Parliamentary Friends of Soil group launching in the new year will be a bi-partisan forum for parliamentarians to interact with farmers, scientists, industry groups and policy makers on issues relating to health and maintenance of Australia’s soils.
The group will launch early next year, with Hon Michael McCormack MP as Chair and Hon Linda Burney MP as Deputy-Chair. Other MPs in the group include:
- Meryl Swanson MP – Paterson NSW
- James McGrath – Senate Qld
- Hollie Hughes – Senate NSW
- Ken O’Dowd – Flynn Qld
- Susan McDonald – Senate Qld
- Tony Pasin – Barker SA
- Kevin Hogan – Page NSW
- Rick Wilson – O’Connor WA
We look forward to announcing the official launch of the group at Parliament House in the near future.
