Division of Farrer

Since 1984, federal electoral division boundaries in Australia have been determined at redistributions by a redistribution committee appointed by the Australian Electoral Commission. Redistributions occur for the boundaries of divisions in a particular state, and they occur every seven years, or sooner if a state's representation entitlement changes or when divisions of a state are malapportioned.^[1]

History

The division was created in 1949 and is named for William Farrer, an agricultural scientist.

The division is located in the far south-western area of the state and includes Albury, Corowa, Narrandera, Leeton, Griffith, Deniliquin, Hay, Balranald and Wentworth.

The sitting member, since the 2001 election, is Sussan Ley, a member of the Liberal Party of Australia and that party's deputy leader since 2022.^[2]

The 2015 redistribution resulted in Farrer significantly shrunk in size, ceding the state's Far West including Broken Hill to the seat of Parkes.^[3] The seat previously gained this area from Parkes in the 2006 redistribution.^[4]

It has always been a safe non-Labor seat, alternating between the Liberal Party and the National Party. All four of its members have gone on to serve in cabinet, most notably Tim Fischer, leader of the National Party from 1990 to 1999 and Deputy Prime Minister from 1996 to 1999 during the first half of the Howard government.

Ritratto di Pablo Picasso, di Juan Gris (1911-1912) Il termine Cubismo indica un movimento artistico d'avanguardia originatasi agli inizi del XX secolo in Francia, contraddistinta dalla scomposizione delle figure in forme geometriche, dalla compenetrazione di piani taglienti e da un nuovo modo di rappresentare lo spazio attraverso la presenza simultanea di molteplici punti di vista, determinando così il definitivo distacco dalla prospettiva lineare rinascimentale e dai principi dell'equilibr...
