PRIME Minister Julia Gillard says Nova Peris will be a tough candidate for Labor in this year's federal election.

Ms Peris on Tuesday won pre-selection as the Labor Senate candidate for the Northern Territory.

"She is a strong, tough candidate who will make history as the ALP's first indigenous representative, and the first indigenous woman to sit in the Federal Parliament," Ms Gillard said in a statement.

She said Ms Peris, an Olympian, had displayed great leadership through her work with Girls Academies in the NT and looked forward to her contributions on youth and indigenous issues.
