Scott McLean, the state secretary of the forestry division of the Tasmanian branch of the Construction, Forestry, Mining and Energy Union, announced in June 2009 that he would seek Labor Party pre-selection for the seat of Bass.[1]
The Examiner's chief political reporter, Peter Wells, reported that McLean "said he would be hoping to provide a stronger voice for timber workers if elected to State Parliament, and would be running a campaign based on 'jobs, jobs, jobs and more jobs'. 'There's no doubt that forestry and wood product workers want as much representation as they can get,' he said."[2]
