Welcome to my Website
At the by-election on 6 September 2008 I was elected as the Federal Member for Mayo.
It is a great privilege to represent the best electorate in Australia in our national Parliament and I will continue to fight for both local and national issues that affect the people of Mayo.
As promised, I continue to move throughout the electorate, listening and talking to a diverse range of people. The greatest challenge we face in Mayo is the environment and human crisis of the lower lakes. My position on this issue is clear. I will continue to fight for an assistance package for the businesses, farmers and community groups affected by the crisis. I will also support additional measures that will assist the lower lakes community to get through this crisis. However I stand resolutely against the flooding of the lower lakes with salt water and the building of the Wellington weir.
I welcome you to my website. I will use this to keep you informed of my efforts to best represent the electorate and to keep you up to date with Mayo’s latest news and coming events in the local community. As the Federal Member, I am always accessible to my constituents, so if you have any questions, concerns or views, please do not hesitate to contact me.
I am your voice in Canberra.
Kind regards
Jamie Briggs
