Electoral Boundaries Commission
The Electoral Boundaries Commission (EBC) is the independent statutory authority responsible for deciding Victoria's State electoral boundaries.Victorian law requires that each electorate must comprise approximately equal numbers of electors (not varying by more than 10 per cent from the State average), to ensure equal representation. Without equal electorates, voters in electorates with very large enrolments would be under-represented in Parliament. Voters in electorates with very small enrolments would be over-represented.
The EBC reviews electorates periodically. A redivision of electoral boundaries is held at least every eight years.
