Gerard Maley

Gerard Maley, has dedicated his life to the rural areas around Darwin. A lifetime resident, Gerard first qualified as a mechanic and worked as a local tradesman before pursuing higher education in law.

Having completed his legal studies, he joined the family firm, where he passionately served the rural community from their Coolalinga office.

His diverse background, combining hands-on trade experience with legal expertise, has uniquely equipped him to understand and advocate for the needs of his community.

Gerard is committed to protecting and enhancing the rural lifestyle cherished by so many in the Northern Territory. He always promotes the importance of making the Territory grow again by working harder and smarter to ensure that residents can continue to enjoy our rural way of life.

Through his local leadership, Gerard aims to restore and enhance the rural lifestyle, ensuring that it remains a vibrant and integral part of life for Territorians.

“In our rural area, we enjoy the best lifestyle, but sadly under Labor, this is being eroded.

Only a CLP Government will make it safe and ensure that families living in Nelson can get back to enjoying the things they love.

I’m passionate about expanding opportunities for outdoor activities, advocating for better and safer. boat ramps, and the expansion of hunting reserves.”
