ABOUT SCOTT BUCHHOLZ

Scott Andrew Buchholz (born 27 March 1968) is an Australian politician who has been a member of the House of Representatives since the 2010 federal election, representing the Division of Wright in Queensland. He is a member of the Liberal National Party of Queensland, and sits with the Liberal Party in federal parliament.

Before entering politics himself, Buchholz served as chief of staff to Queensland Senator Barnaby Joyce and was a director of CQX Group of Transport Companies for 18 years. He won preselection for the unwinnable sixth spot on the Liberal/National Senate ticket in Queensland at the 2007 election. At the 2010 election, he won LNP preselection for the safe seat of Wright, and was elected.

Buchholz was appointed the Chief Government Whip in the House of Representatives on 13 February 2015, replacing Philip Ruddock. He was removed from the position on 20 September 2015, shortly after Malcolm Turnbull replaced Tony Abbott as prime minister. Source: Wikipedia
