June Craig

Margaret June Craig AM (née Lynn; born 8 December 1930) is a former Australian politician who was a Liberal Party member of the Legislative Assembly of Western Australia from 1974 to 1983, representing the seat of Wellington.

Following the Court government's retention at the 1977 state election, she was named Minister for Lands and Forests, becoming only the second woman to serve in a WA cabinet.

The latter portfolio was regarded by previous ministers as difficult, and Craig later wrote that she was disappointed she had failed to implement a "grand reshaping" of the town-planning system, despite the introduction of several smaller "technical" changes.

[3] Following the 1980 state election, at which the government was again returned, there was speculation that the premier, Sir Charles Court, would retire.

[5] Both before and after her parliamentary career, she had been involved in community and charitable organisations, notably as the national president of the Save the Children Fund.
