Brindabella electorate

Brindabella electorate

The Brindabella electorate is one of the three electorates for the Australian Capital Territory Legislative Assembly. It was created in 1995, when the three-electorate, Hare-Clark electoral system was first introduced for the Australian Capital Territory (ACT). It has five seats, and is the largest of the electorates, consisting of the large part of the ACT south of the Murrumbidgee River, although this region is sparsely inhabited. It contains also the Canberra town centre of Tuggeranong, and the Woden Valley suburbs of Chifley, Pearce and Torrens.

In a recent boundary re-distribution by the Australian Capital Territory Electoral Commission Brindabella now also covers the Woden Valley suburb of Farrer.
