David Austick (8 March 1920 – 9 February 1997) was a British Liberal Party politician.
In a 1973 by-election, Austick was elected Member of Parliament (MP) for Ripon in North Yorkshire, gaining the seat from the Conservatives. However, it was a short-lived success. In the February 1974 general election, Austick lost by 4,335 votes to the new Conservative candidate Keith Hampson after seven months as an MP.
Austick was never again elected an MP, but he also served as a councillor in Yorkshire.
