Timeline

1949

Barry John House (born 27 November 1949) is an Australian politician who was a Liberal Party member of the Legislative Council of Western Australia from 1987 to 2017.

1979

He returned to Busselton in 1979 to work as a youth education officer, and in May 1987 was elected to the Busselton Shire Council.

However, he resigned only a few months later in order to enter parliament.

1987

House entered parliament at a 1987 Legislative Council by-election for South-West Province, caused by the resignation of Vic Ferry.

1989

At the 1989 state election, he was re-elected to the Legislative Council representing the new seven-member South West Region.

1992

House was subsequently included in the shadow ministry of Barry MacKinnon, and retained his place when Richard Court became party leader (and thus leader of the opposition) in 1992.

1993

However, following the Liberal Party's victory at the 1993 election, he was not made a minister, but was instead made chairman of committees in the Legislative Council, a position which he held until 1997.

2001

After the government's defeat at the 2001 election, Colin Barnett replaced Richard Court as party leader, and included House in his shadow ministry.

2008

He would remain a shadow minister until 2008, serving under four different leaders (Barnett, Matt Birney, Paul Omodei, and Troy Buswell).

When the Liberal Party returned to power at the 2008 state election, House was not included in the new ministry, but was instead made a parliamentary secretary.

2009

He was President of the Legislative Council from 2009 to 2017, and prior to entering politics worked as a schoolteacher.

House was born in Busselton, Western Australia, to Molly May (née Jolliffe) and Edward Kenneth House.

He attended Busselton Senior High School before going on to further study at the University of Western Australia and Nedlands Teachers College.

He was also a talented cricketer, touring South Africa with an Australian schoolboys team and playing at first-grade level in the WACA district competition.

After graduating, House worked as a teacher for periods at Eastern Goldfields Senior High School, Kewdale Senior High School, and Churchlands Senior High School and Busselton Senior High School.

However, in May 2009, following the start of a new term, he was elected President of the Legislative Council, in succession to Nick Griffiths.

2013

He was re-elected to the position after the 2013 election, but in October 2015 announced that he would retire from parliament at the 2017 election.

Following his retirement from politics, he has continued to undertake various roles in the Busselton community including President of the Busselton Tennis Club, and is the current Chairman of Busselton Jetty Inc.

In 2021, House was awarded an honorary doctorate by Edith Cowan University, which was rescinded later that year in light of his opposition to certain LGBT rights during his political career.
