| * Date of certificate of Governor-General.
The certificate of the State Parliament, which is dated 12.9.1923,
states that the Senator was chosen, but does not indicate date of
choice. |
| ** For details see Odgers, JR, Australian
Senate Practice, AGPS, Canberra, 1976, pp. 109–10. |
| *** The death of Senator Milliner and subsequent
appointment of Senator Field enabled the Opposition in the Senate
to defer consideration of the Appropriation Bills, therby partly precipitating
the constitutional crisis of 1975. |
| † Senator Lewis was originally chosen
only until the next election for the House of Representatives or the
Senate, whichever first occurred. By virtue of the Constitution
Alteration (Senate Casual Vacancies) Act 1977 he held office
until the expiration of the Hon. IJ Greenwood’s term of office
30.6.1981. |
| ‡ Pursuant to the Senate (Representation
of Territories) Act 1973. |
