"In the Australian federal system there are three levels of government: Federal, State and Local.
Each level of government is centred on a body (a parliament or a council) democratically elected by the people as their representatives.
Each level of government has its own responsibilities, though many responsibilities are shared in various ways".

Look up the Queensland or Australian hansard to find the last time your local member spoke in parliament.
I had a touch time finding any record of Margaret Grummitt speaking in the Hansard. The best I could find was talk of her in the Official Hansard of Thursday 20 March 2008 about attending a Youth Point Connect event.
