Bruce Edric Laming (14 June 1938 – 11 September 2017) was an Australian Liberal Party politician in the Queensland parliament.[1] Laming held the seat of Mooloolah from 1992 until 2001 and served as Shadow Public Works and Housing Minister and Deputy Opposition Whip.[1] He is the father of Andrew Laming who was elected to the Australian House of Representatives as the member for the Division of Bowman at the 2004 federal election.[2]

The electorate of Mooloolah was renamed Kawana before the 2001 Queensland state election.[3] At the election, Laming suffered an 18.7 percent swing against him and lost the seat to Labor's Chris Cummins.[3]

Laming died on 11 September 2017 in the Sunshine Coast aged 79, following a long battle with dementia.[4]
