Dinner for Marie

A community dinner will be held on Thursday, May 5, at the Everglades Country Club in recognition of former Member for Gosford Ms Marie Andrews.

The community dinner will recognise the contribution Ms Andrews made to the electorate of Gosford and Peats.

"Marie's decision to retire from State Parliament, prior to the 2011 election, was accepted with much regret from a very appreciative Gosford and Central Coast community," said function organiser Ms Anne Sullivan.

Ms Andrews was originally elected to the seat of Peats in 1995 and continued to serve her electorate until the boundaries changed in 2007, when she was elected for a further term to the newly-named seat of Gosford.

"During her 16 years in the NSW Legislative Assembly, Marie not only served on many parliamentary committees but prioritised advocacy for her constituents in Gosford," said Ms Sullivan.
