Simon Millman

Simon Alexander Millman (born 14 January 1977) is an Australian politician. He has been a Labor member of the Western Australian Legislative Assembly since the 2017 state election, representing Mount Lawley.

Millman studied law at the University of Western Australia, and worked as an industrial relations lawyer at Slater and Gordon.

He is one of five members of the Assembly's Public Accounts Committee, with portfolio responsibility for oversight of the Premier, Treasurer, Minister for Finance, Minister for Public Sector Management and the Minister for Federal-State Relations.

Millman was a member of the Joint Parliamentary Committee that held the 'Inquiry into the need for laws in Western Australia to allow citizens to make informed decisions regarding their own end of life choices' (otherwise known as the End of Life Choices Committee) which was established on 23 August 2017 and reported to the Parliament on 23 August 2018. He subsequently chaired an Expert Panel convened by Attorney General John Quigley to make recommendations regarding potential improvements to the form and utilisation of Advance Health Directives.

In 2019 Millman visited Israel as part of a Health and Medical Innovation Delegation led by Deputy Premier and Minister for Health Roger Cook, organised by the Australia-Israel Chamber of Commerce (WA). Speaking in the Legislative Assembly, Millman said of the trip:'Western Australia shares with Israel both an entrepreneurial spirit and a tradition of outstanding medical innovation. The calibre of delegates on the trip was a testament to both these attributes.'
