}}Malcolm James Washer (born 12 August 1945), Australian politician,[1] was a Liberal member of the Australian House of Representatives from October 1998 to August 2013, representing the Division of Moore, Western Australia.[2] He was born in Bunbury, Western Australia, and was educated at the University of Western Australia, graduating in 1970 with degrees in medicine and surgery. He was a general practitioner before entering politics.[3]

He is considered a moderate Liberal in a very conservative state and is supportive of socially liberal issues such as same-sex marriage.[4]

During 2010 and 2011 he was the contact for the Australian Parliamentary Group on Drug Law Reform (APGDLR), a cross party group of 100 MPs from Australian State and Commonwealth parliaments. The group was set up in 1993 after a meeting in Canberra convened by Michael Moore (ACT Assembly) and Ann Symonds (MLC, NSW).[5]

In August 2011, he announced he would not be contesting the next federal election.[6]

In March 2014, Washer announced his resignation as chair of the Alcohol and Other Drug Council of Australia. He said the reason was the "ill-informed" decision of Assistant Health Minister Fiona Nash to cut the organisation's funding without notice, noting that her decision was "a bloody tragedy" which "wasn't subject to any review . . . it was dumb advising dumber, and dumb won."[7]

As at January 2018, Washer was chair of ASX-listed AusCann, a medical cannabis company.[8]
