Rupert Noel Beale (24 December 1889 – 28 September 1942) was an Australian politician and an Independent member of the New South Wales Legislative Assembly for 16 months from May 1941 until his death.
Between 1910 and 1915, Beale was involved in a large number of enterprises including being an auctioneer, real estate agent and business broker.
He eventually entered parliament as the Independent member for South Coast after he won the seat at the 1941 state election.
Beale was a very active member in parliament, particularly supporting South Coast dairy farmers and the ship building industry.
The Premier, William McKell, said that Beale's method of attacking political problems was unorthodox but that no one ever doubted his sincerity and he was untiring in his efforts for his constituents.
