Tim Gartrell

I congratulate Tim Gartrell on his tremendous service to the Australian Labor Party.

Tim served as National Secretary of the ALP for more than five years, after spending more than three years in the role of Assistant National Secretary.

Tim's leadership qualities during this often difficult period for our party were superb.

As National Campaign Director, Tim was instrumental in the election of a Federal Labor Government.

His ability, hard work, judgment and campaign leadership skills are first class.

Tim was also a great advocate for and helped ensured the promotion of a new generation of quality ALP MPs.

I wish Tim, Kerry and Rose all the best for their future.
