Here you have the opportunity to refine your search for parliamentarians.
You can select one or more criteria. Options are provided in drop-down
boxes for:
- Gender
- Position
- Political Party
- Parliament.
If you select "all positions" in the "position" field, the search extends across leaders of government or opposition. If you want to find ALL parliamentarians for a particular party, or ALL female members in the NSW Parliament, leave the "position" field blank.
The party list in the "Select a Party" drop down menu is not exhaustive. To find parties not on this list and their representatives, please use either the "Select a Parliament" option and scroll down the list, or select "Text" to perform a keyword search of the database.
You can also search
by:
- Surname
- Electorate
- Former Occupation.
For these three criteria
you can enter the full word or the first few letters, e.g. "BA"
in the surname field will bring up results on all surnames starting with
the letters "BA".
The Search function does not search the "At a Glance" sections of the site, i.e. Parliaments at a Glance or Parties at a Glance.
Ministerial and Shadow Ministerial appointments
Within this field you will find listed Ministers of the Government and Members of the Opposition Ministry who are known as "Shadow Ministers". Also listed within this field are Parliamentary Secretaries who are junior Ministers.
