Our new minister for the environment and water

The new Labor Government ministry has been sworn in. Tanya Plibersek, the previous Minister for the Environment, has been moved ‘sideways’ and the new Minister for the Environment and Water is Senator Murray Watt.

His official web page has information on his background, qualifications, positions held, etc., and where you can make contact! His Facebook page is where you can keep track of his recent movements.

Murray Watt is a Queensland Labor Senator. He has a law background and “… specialised in employment law and ran class actions for farmers, shareholders and consumers against governments and big corporations.”

Being a Queenslander, it might be interesting to see how his ministry approaches the illegal land clearing that continues in that state to this day.
