00:02Tasmania's newest Upper House member says she has a lot of thanking volunteers to do.
00:07This election hasn't been about me as an individual, it's actually been about the people of the Huon.

01:06It's rather embarrassing if the Government can't answer questions on its own bill and has to send it back to
