Carol Nolan (born 23 May 1978) is an Irish independent politician who has been a Teachta Dála (TD) for the Offaly constituency since the 2024 general election, and previously from 2016 to 2020.

[2] Before becoming a TD, she was a Sinn Féin member of Offaly County Council from 2014 to 2016, for the Birr local electoral area.

[3] In March 2018, she was suspended from Sinn Féin for three months for voting against legislation to allow for a referendum on the repeal of the Eighth Amendment to the Constitution, support for which had been adopted at the party's Ard Fheis.

A subsequent ruling by the Ceann Comhairle, Verona Murphy that government-affiliated TDs cannot form a Technical group effectively stripped Nolan and McGrath of Dáil speaking time.

Nolan called for reform of the Dáil Standing Orders to ensure all Independent TDs are accorded speaking time.
