Members of the New South Wales Legislative Assembly, 1891–1894
Encyclopedia
This is a list of members of the New South Wales Legislative Assembly
who served in the 15th parliament of New South Wales from 1891 to 1894 They were elected at the 1891 state election between 17 June and 3 July 1891. The Speaker
was Sir Joseph Palmer Abbott
.
By-elections
Under the constitution, ministers were required to resign to recontest their seats in a by-election when appointed. These by-elections are only noted when the minister was defeated; in general, he was elected unopposed.
¶ The 35 Labor candidates elected at this election were the first Labor candidates elected in the Australasian colonies. Due to poor party organisation and disputes over the meaning of the solidarity pledge and the fiscal question, the party caucus split almost from the day of its first meeting. The membership of caucus was extremely fluid with some members (here indicated as Independent Labor) accepting a modified pledge that bound them to vote for the party platform. The second party designations are those for which the member stood at the 1894 election.

¶ The 35 Labor candidates elected at this election were the first Labor candidates elected in the Australasian colonies. Due to poor party organisation and disputes over the meaning of the solidarity pledge and the fiscal question, the party caucus split almost from the day of its first meeting. The membership of caucus was extremely fluid with some members (here indicated as Independent Labor) accepting a modified pledge that bound them to vote for the party platform. The second party designations are those for which the member stood at the 1894 election.
