Arthur Paul Dean, Baron Dean of Harptree, PC (14 September 1924 – 1 April 2009) was a British Conservative Party politician.
Early life
He was educated at Ellesmere College and Exeter College, Oxford.
Political career
In 1962 Dean was the Conservative candidate in a by-election for the very safe Labour seat of Pontefract; he was defeated by Joseph Harper.
He was Member of Parliament for North Somerset from 1964 to 1983, and after boundary changes, for Woodspring from 1983 until his retirement in 1992, preceding Liam Fox. Dean was a junior minister for Health and Social Security during the 1970-1974 Conservative government. From 1982 until his retirement, he was a Deputy Speaker of the House of Commons firstly under George Thomas and then Bernard Weatherill. When in the chair of the Commons on 21 June 1990, Dean was required to use his casting vote.[1]
House of Lords
In 1993 he was made a life peer as Baron Dean of Harptree, of Wedmore in the County of Somerset.
