The strength of the Australian Labor Party is the strength of numbers -- the thousands of Australians who are active, committed members.
All people who vote Labor are encouraged to consider becoming members because it is important for the Party to reflect your concerns and ideas.
|
| Applying to join |  |
Most people over 15 years of age and living in Queensland can join the Australian Labor Party.
To apply, fill out an application form, pay the membership fee and forward it to Party Office. (Members must ensure they renew their membership annually before 31 December, and notify the Queensland Party office of any change of address or contact details.)

| Registering with a branch | |
Once admitted by the Administrative Committee, the State Secretary writes to the new member advising them to apply for full membership rights by registering at a local ALP branch.
You will be provided with a list of branches within your Federal electorate, and the name and contact details of the branch secretary. There are usually several branches within each Federal electorate. New members should choose the branch which suits them best and contact the branch secretary.
It is also possible for a new member to register with a branch prior to having their application considered by the Administrative Committee. Your registration comes into effect once the Administrative Committee admits you as a member.
Once you are registered at branch you are a full member, which entitles you to participate in meetings and vote in ballots.

Once your application for membership has been processed, you will be posted a membership card and information about how to register at a local branch.
