The Division has experienced an acute shortage of GPs in recent years and it is only in the last 12-18 months that GP numbers have returned to the levels of 1997.
The Division Board of Directors felt that the Board structure as it was, maintained the focus at an individual town level instead of the Division as a whole.
It is interesting to note that although 100% of Aged Care facilities in the Division area had received numerous phone calls and had been surveyed for their needs, 38% indicated in the National survey that they had had no contact with the Barwon Division and 43% weren't aware of the GP panel program.

 Gwydir electorate gone in redistribution - Breaking News - National - Breaking News
The Australian Electoral Commission (AEC) confirmed on Wednesday it would press ahead with its plan to eliminate the north-western seat of Gwydir in an electoral redistribution, merging it with the electorate of Parkes.
"While a small degree of flexibility in numbers is allowed by the Commonwealth Electoral Act 1918, the redistribution committee could not escape the conclusion that the division of Gwydir would be the most appropriate division to abolish," the AEC said.
The redistribution was prompted by falling voter numbers in NSW and increasing numbers in Queensland, with the AEC creating a new seat in Queensland.
