Roger Charles Degen (born 1 May 1939) is a former Australian politician. He was the Labor member for Balmain in the New South Wales Legislative Assembly from 1968 to 1984. Degen was born in Balmain to boatbuilder John Degen and Alice Quigley. He was educated at St Joseph's Christian Brothers High School in Rozelle before being apprenticed to the Railways Department building carriages and wagons. A carpenter, he became an executive member of the New South Wales Building Workers' Industrial Union; he joined the Labor Party in 1962. He became assistant secretary of the party's Rozelle branch, and was on the electorate councils for the federal seat of Dalley and the state seat of Balmain. He married Celes Watkin in 1964, with whom he had one son.[1] When the member for Balmain, John McMahon, retired at the 1968 state election, Degen was selected to replace him as Labor candidate. He won the seat easily.[2] In 1980, he faced a motion of expulsion from parliament after an adverse finding against him by the Woodward Royal Commission into drug trafficking. The motion was defeated on party lines and he continued to hold the seat without difficulty until his retirement in 1984.[3] References1. ^{{cite web | last = Parliament of New South Wales | first = | authorlink = Parliament of New South Wales | coauthors = | title = Mr Roger Charles Degen | work = Former Members | publisher = Parliament of New South Wales | year = 2008 | url = http://www.parliament.nsw.gov.au/prod/parlment/members.nsf/1fb6ebed995667c2ca256ea100825164/952c42d79ac97c75ca256e230080938e?OpenDocument | doi = | accessdate = 27 June 2010}} {{s-start}}{{s-par|au-nsw}}{{succession box | title=Member for Balmain | before=John McMahon | after=Peter Crawford | years=1968–1984}}{{s-end}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Degen, Roger}}2. ^{{cite web | last = Green | first = Antony | authorlink = Antony Green | coauthors = | title = Contests for Balmain | work = NSW Election Database | publisher = Parliament of New South Wales | year = 2010 | url = http://www.parliament.nsw.gov.au/resources/nswelectionsanalysis/DistrictIndexes/Balmain.htm | doi = | accessdate = 27 June 2010}} 3. ^{{cite web | last = Parliament of New South Wales | first = | authorlink = | coauthors = | title = Expulsion of Members of the New South Wales Parliament | work = New South Wales Parliamentary Library Research Service | publisher = Parliament of New South Wales | year = 2003 | url = http://www.parliament.nsw.gov.au/prod/parlment/publications.nsf/0/9f856d1354b5a484ca256ecf0009cf23/$FILE/17-03.pdf | doi = | accessdate = 27 June 2010}} 5 : 1939 births|Living people|Members of the New South Wales Legislative Assembly|Australian carpenters|Australian Labor Party members of the Parliament of New South Wales |
