Info | Lalich migrated to Australia with his parents as a three year-old. His family was Serbian and escaped from Yugoslavia to Egypt in 1944, where Lalich was born. Lalich worked for Prospect County Council before his election to Fairfield Council in 1987. Lalich was first elected Mayor of Fairfield in 1993, and became the city's first popularly elected Mayor at the 2004 local government elections, easily re-elected to the position in September 2008. An electrician and mechanic by trade, he ran a family building company before entering Parliament at a 2008 by-election despite a 21.8% swing against Labor. At the 2011 election Lalich suffered a further 5% loss of support compared to the by-election but increased his margin substantially in 2015. He was appointed opposition whip in May 2016 but has been absent through ill-health in the latter part of 2018.
