David Bushby
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
David Christopher Bushby (born July 17, 1965), Australian politician, a Liberal member of the Australian Senate since August 2007, representing the state of Tasmania.
Bushby was born in Launceston, Tasmania. He was educated at the University of Tasmania, where he graduated in economics and law, and the Australian Maritime College, where he graduated in business. Prior to entering parliament, Bushby was a practicing lawyer and political adviser. [1]
In May 2007, Bushby was preselected for Tasmanian Liberal Senate ticket in the number two position ahead of the 2007 election. [2] Consequently, Bushby appeared destined to enter the federal parliament at the beginning of the next Senate term in July 2008 given the highly electable nature of this position on the ticket. In fact his entry to federal parliament came sooner. On 30 August 2007, Bushby was appointed to the Senate by the Tasmanian parliament to fill the casual vacancy caused by the resignation of Paul Calvert. [3]
