Ms Rhiannon spoke to the Post on Friday, saying how important these “briefing” events are.

“It’s an opportunity to catch up with local members and supporters on key issues,” Ms Rhiannon said.

“It’s valuable to hear first hand about the issues.”

“I have the portfolio for the South East forests, where logging is a major concern,” she said.
