Craig Kelly Biography

Craig Kelly is one of the most popular and richest Politician who was born on September 29, 1963 in Sydney, New South Wales, Australia.

At age 46, Kelly was elected to Federal Parliament as the Member for Hughes in 2010, which was considered a marginal seat. In his maiden speech, he spoke about raising his son, who has Down syndrome. He served on the Standing Appropriations and Administration Australian House of Representatives committee from 2010 to 2013. In 2012, Kelly was referred to the parliamentary privileges committee over a range of allegations, including a failure to declare on his register of interests his directorship of several companies. The then Leader of the House, Anthony Albanese, alleged Kelly failed to disclose his directorship of three entities which he had not officially relinquished until March 2011, eight months after the 2010 election. Kelly denied the allegations and the Parliamentary Privileges Committee did not pursue the matter further. Some media outlets suggested the move was an attempt by the Labor government to divert attention from accusations against Craig Thomson.

Kelly and the President of the NSW Commandos Association, Barry Grant, fought Labor Government cuts in the 2012 budget to entitlements for defence personnel to travel home during holiday times. Kelly and Grant put together a petition in favour of reinstating the entitlements that was circulated Australia-wide, attracting well over 10,000 signatures. With Kelly’s help a disallowance motion was moved in the House of Representatives that forced the Labor Government to reinstate the entitlements. This affected upwards of 22,000 service men and women.
