Donald Terence "Terry" Redman (born 16 April 1963) is an Australian politician. He has been a National Party member of the Western Australian Legislative Assembly since February 2005, representing the electorates of Stirling (2005-2008), Blackwood-Stirling (2008-2013), and Warren-Blackwood (2013-present). He is the past Minister for Regional Development; Lands and Minister Assisting the Minister for State Development in the Barnett Ministry.
Terry Redman was born on 16 April 1963 in the Perth suburb of Subiaco. He has a Bachelor of Science majoring in Agriculture and a post graduate diploma in Education.
Prior to entering politics he was a teacher, principal of the Western Australian College of Agriculture in Denmark and businessman. He is married to Marie Redman and they have two children: Ben and Alysha.
Winning preselection for the National Party after the retirement of the sitting member Monty House, Redman retained the seat of Stirling for his party at the 2005 state election. Following Stirling's abolition, he won the new seat of Blackwood-Stirling at the 2008 state election.
The Western Australian election, held on 6 September 2008, resulted in a hung parliament after a swing away from the incumbent Labor Party.
On 14 September 2008, the National Party, for which Redman had been re-elected as an MP, agreed to support the Liberal Party as a minority government. Redman along with two other Nationals, including leader Brendon Grylls and deputy leader Terry Waldron, were appointed to Cabinet on 23 September 2008.
