Biography

Andrew James Barr (born 29 April 1973) is an Australian politician who has been serving as the 7th and current chief minister of the Australian Capital Territory since 2014. Barr was previously the Treasurer of the Australian Capital Territory from 2011 to 2024. He has been the leader of the Australian Capital Territory branch of the Australian Labor Party (ALP) since 2014 and a member (MLA) of the ACT Legislative Assembly since 2006. He is the longest serving chief minister in the ACT since the territory gained self government in 1989. Barr was immediately promoted to Cabinet upon his election to replace former Treasurer Ted Quinlan, who resigned mid-term. On 11 December 2014 he was elected as Chief Minister after his predecessor, Katy Gallagher, resigned and announced her intention to run for the Senate. In addition to being Chief Minister, he holds the portfolios of Economic Development and Tourism and Trade. Barr is the first openly gay head of the ACT government (from 2014), and was the first openly gay member as well as government cabinet minister in the ACT Legislative Assembly from 2006.
