Stephen Kamper (born in Sydney) is an Australian politician who was elected to the New South Wales Legislative Assembly as the member for Rockdale for the Labor Party at the 2015 New South Wales state election. He is currently the Minister for Sport, Minister for Lands and Property, Minister for Small Business, and Minister for Multiculturalism in the Minns ministry.

Political career

With the retirement of Frank Sartor in the seat of Rockdale at the 2011 New South Wales state election, Labor's national executive selected Kamper as the candidate, causing friction with the local branch. John Flowers of the Liberal Party won the seat in its landslide victory.

Three years later in March 2014, a rank and file ballot was conducted to determine the candidate but Mr Kamper was the only nominee. At the 2015 election, Kamper won back the seat for Labor.

As a result of the shadow ministry reshuffle following Chris Minns' election as Leader of the Opposition, Kamper was appointed Shadow Minister for Property, Shadow Minister for Small Business, and Shadow Minister for Multiculturalism.

Kamper was sworn in as Minister of his existing portfolios, in addition to Sport, following Labor's victory in the 2023 New South Wales state election.

Personal life

Kamper is married to Magda and together they have five children and four grandsons. He attended Sans Souci Public School and James Cook Boys High School in Kogarah and prior to entering the parliament was a senior partner in Kamper Chartered Accountants.
