The Minister for Western New South Wales is a minister in the New South Wales Government with responsibility for the region to the west of the Great Dividing Range in New South Wales, Australia.

It was first established in 2011 in the O'Farrell ministry. It was not responsible for any legislation, nor tasked with the management of a department.[1] It was abolished in the second Baird ministry and the NSW Farmers' Association called for its return in the lead-up to the 2019 election.[2] It was re-created in the second Berejiklian ministry, combined with the portfolio of Agriculture, before returning as a separate portfolio in the second Perrottet ministry.[3]
