Suzanne Mary Sinclair (born 4 May 1946) is a former New Zealand politician of the Labour Party.

Early life

Sinclair was born in Auckland.^[1] Before entering politics, Sinclair was a teacher and a special needs tutor.

Politics

In 1980 she stood unsuccessfully for the Auckland City Council on a Labour Party ticket.^[2] Sinclair was later elected to the Council in the late 1980s.^[3] She was a Labour Party MP from 1993 to 1996, representing the Titirangi electorate.^[4] She was first elected to Parliament in the 1993 election as MP for Titirangi when she beat the incumbent, National's Marie Hasler.^[5] The Titirangi electorate was abolished when mixed-member proportional (MMP) voting was introduced for the 1996 election. In the 1996 election, Sinclair unsuccessfully contested the Waitakere electorate, when she was in turn beaten by Hasler.^[6] Sinclair was also a list candidate ranked at 27, but Labour did not win sufficient votes for her to remain in Parliament.^[7]

She chairs the WALSHtrust, an organisation in West Auckland supporting people with mental health, illness, and disability issues.^[11]
