Csaba Molnár (born 4 December 1975) is a Hungarian jurist and politician, who served as Minister of Transport, Information and Energy in the second cabinet of Ferenc Gyurcsány, Minister of the Prime Minister's Office (Minister of Chancellery) and acting Minister of Civilian Intelligence Services of Hungary in the government of Gordon Bajnai.

He was a part of Gyurcsány's inner circle in the Hungarian Socialist Party. As a result he joined Democratic Coalition Platform founded by the former prime minister and became its deputy chairman. When the platform split from the Socialists on October 22, 2011 he joined to newly-formed party and left the MSZP and its parliamentary group.[1] He was appointed leader of the parliamentary group[2], although parliament’s Constitutional and Procedural Committee decided DK will not be allowed to form a new party faction until spring 2012 because of the parliamentary rules.[3] Molnár was elected one of the four deputy chairmen of the Democratic Coalition on November 6, 2011.[4]
