There are Leaders of the Australian Greens (Greens) at the federal level, as well as in the several member parties which make up the confederation of the Australian Greens.
Background
[edit]On Saturday 12 November 2005 at the national conference in Hobart the Australian Greens abandoned their long-standing tradition of having no official leader and approved a process whereby a parliamentary leader could be elected by the Greens Parliamentary Party Room. On Monday 28 November 2005, Bob Brown – who had long been regarded as de facto leader by many inside the party, and most people outside the party – was elected unopposed as the Parliamentary Party Leader.[1]
Most of the Green parties which have joined the Australian Greens do not have a formal leader, and instead they have a shared leadership structure.[2] However, Tasmania, Victoria, and the ACT, have adopted singular leadership structures into their party.[2]
