Electoral Boundary Changes
The Electoral district of Doncaster was split off from Box Hill and created in 1976 due to population growth.
A redivision of electorate boundaries in 1991 abolished the Balwyn electorate and incorporated most of it into Box Hill. A large part of the Box Hill electorate (with 17,290 electors) was also transferred to the Electoral district of Mitcham. These changes took effect after the 1992 Victorian State election.
