Hobart today (Sun): Election issues discussion
An election issues discussion will be held in Hobart on Sunday for the Citizens’ Agenda which launched two weeks ago.
Andrew Wilkie, Jane Austen and other political candidates will be responding to the three most popular questions in a town-hall style event one week before the election.
This means citizens of Hobart and the wider Denison electorate will get the opportunity to set the agenda for this electorate over the next few months.
Our event on Sunday May 19, 2012 will be from 12pm to 4pm in the Hobart CBD.
