Mr Bill Tilley

Before entering Parliament, Bill served as a member of Victoria Police. He was also a former member of the Australian Defence Force, in the Royal Australian Corp of Military Police.

Bill was prompted to run for Parliament because he felt that he could do more in the service of Victoria and that the role of legislator would allow him to help many more people.

The priorities Bill has for his community are to ensure fair and equitable representation of all people. He is passionate about ensuring a sustainable native forestry industry, good management of our national parks and Alpine grazing, and sustainable numbers of brumbies maintained in the high country.

Bill's vision for Victoria’s future is that those who work hard reap the benefits of their work. He wants to see responsible expenditure for the whole of the state, and for the benefits of hard work not to be syphoned off into taxes.

The area of public policy that he is most passionate about is supporting Victoria Police by ensuring proper resourcing and re-establishing a broad and thorough practical knowledge base.
