by Nick Bendel10 minute read

MFAA brokers have elected 21 candidates in the first direct elections in the association's history.

Chief executive Siobhan Hayden announced yesterday that Donna Beazley and Tim Donahoo had been elected to the board.

It came after brokers voted "overwhelmingly in favour" of the new system at an extraordinary general meeting in September.

Brokers also selected another 19 candidates for their state advisory committees.

Victorians elected Sue Hayter, Robert Krol and Louise Lucas.

Queenslanders voted in Boris Biskupic, James Higgs and Scott Smith.

Western Australian brokers elected Don Crellin, Neville Hamilton and Rebecca Parkin.

The South Australia and Northern Territory elections returned Sandy Basso, Leah Busby, Gerald Jones and Mark Caesar.

Tasmanian brokers chose Geoff Colls, Bryce Harding and Troy Spinks for their committee.

Ms Hayden thanked all the candidates who were nominated for positions on the board and state advisory committees.

"Our online election system provided us with a strong number of votes cast by MFAA members this year," she said.

"Congratulations go to all those candidates who were successful but I also want to thank all candidates for seeking to participate in the governance of your association.

"The large number of candidates clearly indicates the level of interest members have in being involved in their association."
