Liliana D'Ambrosio (Italian: [liˈljaːna damˈbrɔːzjo]; born 30 July 1964) is an Australian politician. She has been a Labor Party member of the Victorian Legislative Assembly since 2002, representing the electorate of Mill Park.[1] She is presently Minister for Climate Action, Minister for Energy & Resources and Minister for the State Electricity Commission under the Allan Government.

In 2010, D'Ambrosio joined John Brumby's cabinet when she was appointed Minister for Community Development after a cabinet reshuffle following the resignation of Lynne Kosky.[2]
