Carolyn Male

Australian politician

Carolyn Therese Male (born 7 May 1966) is an Australian politician who was a Labor member of the Legislative *embly of Queensland from 2001 to 2012.

Male was first elected to parliament as the Labor member for Gl* House at the 2001 state election. She served three terms as the member for Gl* House, but a redistribution ahead of the 2009 state election made the district much less favourable for Labor. Consequently, she successfully contested the seat of Pine Rivers to win a fourth term.

She was Government Whip from 11 September 2006 to 8 April 2009. Male was the Parliamentary Secretary for Education from March 2009 until she was made a Deputy Government Whip in February 2012. Male retired before the 2012 election. Male was born in Nambour. She is married with two daughters.
