Barry Urban (born 10 December 1968) is a former Australian politician.
He was a member of the Western Australian Legislative Assembly representing Darling Range from March 2017 until his resignation in May 2018.
Urban was elected as a member of the Labor Party but resigned from the party and sat as an independent from November 2017, after a series of scandals involving false claims of his credentials including his educational qualifications and his wearing of a police overseas service medal to which he had no entitlement.In May 2018, the parliament's procedures and privileges committee recommended Urban be expelled from the assembly after it found he had misled the house on five occasions.
Urban resigned immediately after the tabling of the committee's report, and his seat was subsequently lost to the Liberal Party.
Urban was charged by WA Police with twelve counts of forgery, attempted fraud and false evidence in September 2018.
