Mark Deering (6 March 1900 – 26 April 1973) was an Irish Fine Gael politician. A farmer, he first stood for election at the 1951 general election but was not successful. He was elected to Dáil Éireann as a Fine Gael Teachta Dála (TD) for the Wicklow constituency at the 1953 by-election caused by the death of Thomas Brennan of Fianna Fáil.[1]

He was re-elected at the 1954 general election but lost his seat at the 1957 general election.[2] He was an unsuccessful candidate at the 1965 general election.[2]

He played for the Ireland national rugby union team against Wales at Ravenhill Stadium, Belfast on 9 March 1929.[3]
