Frederick Courtice (2 April 1883 – 18 February 1956) was a member of the Queensland Legislative Council.

After a failed referendum in May 1917,[3] Premier Ryan tried a new tactic, and later that year advised the Governor, Sir Hamilton John Goold-Adams, to appoint thirteen new members whose allegiance lay with Labour to the council.

[4] Courtice was one of the thirteen new members, and went on to serve for four and a half years until the council was abolished in March 1922.

One son, Frederick Colin Courtice, was awarded a Rhodes Scholarship and went on to become a medical researcher and Fellow of the Australian Academy of Science.

[2] His nephew, Brian Courtice, later served in the Australian House of Representatives.
