Peter Smitskam (born 2 April 1958 in The Hague) is a Dutch politician from the Party for Freedom.
Smitskam was born in The Hague in 1958. Before entering politics he worked as an IT security consultant in various locations including Tel Aviv, Munich and Amsterdam before founding a cybersecurity business. He first began working for the PVV in 2016, and he is a member of the Municipal Council of Zoetermeer.[1][2]
In the 2023 Dutch general election, Smitskam was elected to the Dutch House of Representatives.[1] He is the PVV's spokesperson for administrative law, family law, private law, and gambling, and he serves on the committee carrying out the parliamentary inquiry into the Dutch response to the COVID-19 pandemic, which commenced in February 2024.[3][4] One year into the House's term, Algemeen Dagblad noted that Smitskam was among the parliamentarians with the least debate contributions; Smitskam had talked for six minutes in total, during one plenary and one committee debate.[5]
