Background
The state of Queensland and the territory of Papua New Guinea were part of the IEEE Australian Section from 1972 until the Queensland Section was inaugurated on February 22nd 1985. The Queensland Section was the 4th Australian section to be formed.
On January 29th 1994 the North Queensland Section was formed, taking in Papua New Guinea and the part of Queensland north of the 23rd parallel south, which made the Queensland Section much smaller geographically.
