Marilyn Joy Quigley, QSO (born 9 May 1948), also known as Joy McLauchlan, is a former New Zealand politician. Quigley was born in Geraldine, and married Al McLauchlan. She spent several years overseas with her husband and family, before first standing for the National Party in the 1984 election.
Quigley was an MP from 1990 to 1999, representing the National Party. She was first elected to Parliament in the 1990 election as MP for Western Hutt, defeating Labour's John Terris. She had previously stood in Eastern Hutt in the 1984 election and Western Hutt in the 1987 election, and had worked as a parliamentary secretary to prominent National MPs such as John Banks, George Gair, Don McKinnon and Ruth Richardson. She remained MP for Western Hutt until the seat was abolished in the 1996 election, the first MMP election. She then contested the new seat of Hutt South, but was defeated by Labour's Trevor Mallard. She remained in Parliament as a list MP, but left politics at the 1999 election.
Quigley reverted to her maiden name in 1997.
