Vincent Anthony Tarzia (born 24 September 1986) is an Australian politician who is currently serving as the South Australian Leader of the Opposition and Leader of the South Australian Liberal Party, representing the House of Assembly seat of Hartley since the 2014 state election.

Tarzia served as the Minister for Police, Emergency Services and Correctional Services in the Marshall ministry between July 2020 and March 2022. Following the Liberal leadership resignation of David Speirs in August 2024, Tarzia won the subsequent Liberal leadership election.

Background and early career

Tarzia attended St Joseph's School Payneham and Rostrevor College. During his time at Rostrevor, Tarzia was Head Prefect and Dux of the college. At the age of 13, he started his first job stacking shelves at a local Foodland.

Tarzia then went on to obtain law and commerce degrees at the University of Adelaide. He was a solicitor and worked in Funds Management, Legal and Commercial sectors.

Political career

Tarzia entered politics in 2010, serving as a Councillor of the City of Norwood Payneham & St Peters. He was elected 1st out of 7 candidates, defeating two long-term incumbents.

In 2012, Tarzia was pre-selected to challenge his local, north-eastern seat of Hartley. Tarzia won the seat of Hartley at the 2014 state election, after defeating the Labor incumbent Grace Portolesi.

In January 2016 Tarzia was appointed Shadow Parliamentary Secretary for Entrepreneurship, Innovation and Business Start-ups. In January 2017, Tarzia became Shadow Cabinet Parliamentary Secretary.

2018 election

On 6 October 2017, Nick Xenophon announced he would leave the senate and challenge Tarzia for the seat of Hartley in the 2018 state election. A month after Xenophon's announcement, Tarzia's predecessor, Grace Portolesi was announced as the Labor candidate for Hartley, turning the seat into a three-way contest. In early polls in January 2018, Xenophon was predicted to win Hartley, with articles naming Xenophon as the most influential person in South Australia. Despite being written off by the media, Tarzia went on to win the three-way race and retain Hartley convincingly, with 57.8% of the vote and a 4.7% swing towards him, despite a statewide swing of 1.1% against the Liberals. Tarzia's victory was key in helping the Liberals win government for the first time since 2002.

On 3 May 2018, he was elected the 35th Speaker of the South Australian House of Assembly, becoming the youngest person to hold the office of Speaker in South Australian history.

Speaker

In December 2018, Tarzia became the first Australian Speaker to enable Question Time to be broadcast live on Facebook. This decision sought to open up the South Australian Parliament to a bigger audience and was expected to increase "openness and accountability" of the Parliament.

Ministerial career

On 29 July 2020, Tarzia was appointed as Minister for Police, Emergency Services and Correctional Services, following a Cabinet reshuffle. As Minister, Tarzia introduced a number of road safety reforms in South Australia.

After calls for motorcycle licensing reform, Tarzia introduced the Motor Vehicles (Motor Bike Driver Licensing) Amendment Act 2021 into parliament which subsequently passed both houses on 3 March 2021. These laws raised the minimum age for obtaining a motorcycle learners permit from 16 to 18, and obtaining a full licence from 18 to 21.

On 1 July 2021, new laws were introduced to further penalise hoon drivers. Under the new law, South Australian drivers who have their car impounded have 38 days to pay their fine in full or face their vehicle being crushed or sold. Tarzia was quoted on ABC Radio asserting he has “no sympathy” for those who drive dangerously.

In November 2021, legislation introduced by Tarzia was passed targeting drug drivers. Under the new laws, drivers will be instantly stripped of their licence upon failing a roadside drug test.

In November 2020, Tarzia and the State Government delivered a $800,000 funding boost to Crime Stoppers SA. The funding injection was the first ever direct State Government funding for the organisation.

2022 election

At the 2022 South Australian election, Tarzia was re-elected for a third term as Member for Hartley. While the South Australian Liberal Party saw a two-party preferred swing against it of 6.52% in an election landslide, Tarzia retained his seat with a swing against him of only 3%. In April 2022, Tarzia assumed the shadow portfolios of Infrastructure and Transport and Recreation, Sport and Racing.

Liberal leadership

Tarzia became leader of the South Australian Liberal Party in August 2024, after winning the Liberal leadership election resulting from the leadership resignation of David Speirs.
