Hubert Peter Lazzarini (Italian: [laddzaˈriːni]; 8 September 1884 – 1 October 1952) was an Australian politician. He was a member of the Australian Labor Party (ALP) and represented the Division of Werriwa in the House of Representatives for over 30 years (1919–1931, 1934–1952). After the ALP split of 1931 he joined the Lang Labor faction, which was reunited with the official ALP in 1936. In the 1940s Lazzarini held ministerial office in the Curtin and Chifley governments, serving as Minister for Home Security (1941–1946), Works (1945), and Works and Housing (1945–1946).
