This is a list of members of the Tasmanian Legislative Council from 2002 to 2006. Terms of the Legislative Council do not coincide with Legislative Assembly elections, with members serving eight-year terms, and two or three members facing re-election every year. The members have been categorised here according to the four-year terms of the Legislative Assembly so as to avoid the need for separate member lists for each year.
1 Independent 
Rosevears MLC 
Ray Bailey retired in 2002 at the conclusion of his term. He was replaced by another independent, 
Kerry Finch, at the periodic election.
2 The two incumbents facing re-election, 
Paul Harriss (
Huon) and 
Sue Smith (
Montgomery) were both returned.
3 Mersey MLC 
Geoff Squibb, 
Windermere MLC 
Silvia Smith and 
Derwent MLC 
Michael Aird faced re-election at the 2003 periodic elections. Squibb, an independent, was defeated by another independent,

Ivan Dean. Aird, a Labor member, was comfortably returned.
4 Aspley MLC 
Colin Rattray and 
Elwick MLC 
David Crean both retired at the 2004 periodic elections. Rattray's daughter
