1 The Country Party renamed itself to the National Country Party during the course of this term..
2 The Liberal and Country League decided to rename itself to the Liberal Party of Australia, in accordance with the federal party, in early 1976, as negotiations progressed to reunite with the rebel Liberal Movement party. The LM duly voted to rejoin the party in May 1976, with one of its two MHAs, David Boundy, joining the new Liberal Party. The second MHA, Robin Millhouse, who had fiercely opposed the merger, immediately founded a new party, the New LM, and served as its sole representative in the House of Assembly.
