Matt Gregory has been selected as National’s Dunedin South candidate for the 2017 General Election.

Mosgiel with his wife Kylie and their young son Edwin.
“I’m proud to live in Dunedin South – it’s made up of some truly fantastic communities, so I’m excited about standing
for National here,” Mr Gregory says.
“New Zealand and the Dunedin area is growing strongly, and we’re benefiting from the leadership National has shown in
Government.
“As local MP, I would be a tireless voice for the Dunedin South electorate in a Government that is working to sustain
that growth, build for growth, and act for the people most pressured by change.
“Dunedin South deserves a strong local voice in a Bill English-led National Government with a strong plan to make Kiwis
better off at work and at home, with the means to achieve it.
“I’ll be running a vigorous campaign focused on the issues that matter to local families and businesses, like ensuring
we continue to invest in health, housing, education, and vital transport infrastructure.”
The Dunedin South Electorate covers South Dunedin, Mosgiel, Outram and stretches inland to Middlemarch and the Longburn
Reservoir. National won the party vote at the 2014 General Election with a close to 2,500 vote majority.
