IN BRINDABeLLA
The electorate of Brindabella is centered around Tuggeranong, stretching down to the southern border of the ACT, up to Kambah and Macarthur.
Laura Nuttall MLA and Sam Nugent are your lead Greens candidates in Brindabella, standing to represent the local community and ensure all Canberrans can live a good life with great public services, affordable housing and a thriving local environment.
We’ve got big plans for Brindabella and it’s all possible, if you vote for it.
