1983 Maroubra state by-election

A by-election was held for the New South Wales Legislative Assembly seat of Maroubra on 22 October 1983. It was triggered by the resignation of Bill Haigh who had been dropped as Minister for Corrective Services in October 1981.

The Maroubra by-election was held the same day as the by-elections for Kogarah, Marrickville and Riverstone. All were safe Labor seats and while there was a swing against Labor in each seat (7.2% to 11.8%), all were retained by Labor.

Result
Bill Haigh resigned.
