The 1993 Dickson supplementary election was held on 17 April 1993 to elect the next member for Dickson in the Australian House of Representatives, following the death of a candidate during the 1993 federal election campaign.
Dickson was formed in 1992 and had not previously been contested, however it was notionally held by the Labor Party.
Independent candidate Walter Pegler died on 3 March, 10 days before the federal election. As it was after the close of nominations, the election was declared 'failed' and a supplementary election had to be held.[1]
Following the return of the Labor Party to government, Prime Minister Paul Keating announced the makeup of the Second Keating Ministry. Michael Lavarch was elected to the ministry by the Labor Caucus on 23 March in the portfolio of Attorney-General. However, he was not formally sworn in.[1]
Following his victory, Lavarch was sworn into the ministry on 27 April.[1]
