Danielle Green

Danielle Louise Green (born 19 September 1963) is an Australian politician, currently serving as the member for Yan Yean in the Victorian Legislative Assembly. She represents the Australian Labor Party.
Before entering Parliament she was an electoral officer for Andre Haermeyer before a redistribution turned Yan Yean into a notionally Liberal seat. Haermeyer chose to contest Kororoit at the 2002 election. Green won Labor preselection. Amid the massive Labor wave that swept Victoria in that election, Green won on a swing of over 10 percent, turning Yan Yean into a safe Labor seat in one stroke. She was returned in 2006 and 2010 with modest swings against her.
Green is active in many local community groups, including, her local CFA as well as being the No.1 ticket holder of the Greensborough Hockey Club. Danielle Green was appointed Parliamentary Secretary for Police Emergency Services after the 2006 election.
After Labor's loss in the 2010 state election, Green was announced as Shadow Minister for Disability Services, Health Promotion, Emergency Services & Volunteers. Since that time, Green has also held responsibility for the Child Safety & Women's Affairs portfolios.
In a reshuffle announced in December 2013, Green was appointed as Shadow Minister for Preventing Family Violence and Shadow Minister for Health Promotion & Women.
In 2014 Green won the seat of Yan Yean for the fourth time with a 4% swing. In 2015 Green was appointed Parliamentary Secretary for Tourism, Major Events and Regional Victoria.
