The ACT Greens Assembly team yesterday selected Meredith Hunter as its
Parliamentary Convenor.

"My selection as Parliamentary Convenor of the ACT Greens was a
consensus decision of the four new Greens members in the Assembly. I am
delighted to have their support and look forward to our work together
very much" Ms Hunter said today.

"The ACT Greens in the Assembly will be a really strong team, and I have
no doubt that every one of us will continue to provide leadership in our
areas of enthusiasm and expertise."

"Discussions with the other parties in the Assembly continue today. I
expect we will be getting down to tin-tacks on how the new Assembly
might work, how best to keep the ACT Government accountable and on
making the right policy decisions for the people of Canberra."

"We are making a lot of  progress in these cross party discussions, and
I believe there will be some real achievements for the ACT even before
we get to the first sitting next week."

"Again, I'd like to thank the voters of Canberra for the trust they have
shown in us. We look forward to returning that trust through ensuring a
progressive, stable and accountable Government that is facing up to the
challenges before us" Ms Hunter said.
