"The Report and the ensuing legislation and beyond."
– Andrea Coote MP
Andrea Coote was elected to Parliament in September 1999.
Andrea proved herself to be a pivotal part of the Victorian Parliamentary Liberal Party. She is currently Parliamentary Secretary for Families and Community Services. Andrea’s primary responsibility in its role is with the Disability Sector.
Her topic 'Betrayal of Trust' – Parliamentary inquiry into the Handling of Child Abuse by Religious and Other Organisations will certainly be informative and controversial.
