Members of the New South Wales Legislative Assembly, 1941–1944
(Redirected from Members of the New South Wales Legislative Assembly, 1941-1944)
Members of the New South Wales Legislative Assembly who served in the 33rd parliament held their seats from 1941 to 1944. They were elected at the 1941 state election,[1] and at by-elections.[2][3][4] During this term, the opposition United Australia Party merged with the new Commonwealth Party to form the Democratic Party in late 1943. The merger was only at a state level, however; the federal United Australia Party, however, remained intact during this period. The Speaker was Daniel Clyne.[5]
