WA electoral redistribution

Submissions on the proposed new electoral boundaries for Western Australia under one-vote one-value close on July 30.

The commissioners have invited objections and comments on their proposed redistribution.

I have submitted an objection to the name of the Kalgoorlie-based seat being Goldfields. I have suggested it should remain Kalgoorlie for historical reasons and to better reflect the geography of the electorate.

Information about the redistribution is online here.
