Nathaniel Gerard Smith (born 1980)[2] is an Australian politician. He was a member of the New South Wales Legislative Assembly from 2019 to 2023, representing Wollondilly for the Liberal Party[3] where he lives with his wife and sends his children to school. Smith was defeated by independent Judy Hannan in the 2023 New South Wales state election in what is widely considered as an upset.[4]

Smith, the son of former NSW Attorney General Greg Smith, trained as a plumber and has completed a master's degree in Organisational Communications.[3]

Smith supports the privatisation of Sydney Water and other assets.[5][6]

Smith attended Dominic Perrottet's 21st birthday party.[7]
