Libertarian Party of Australia

The Libertarian Party of Australia was a minor Australian political party that contested the 1983 federal election. It was formed in 1977 as a result of a split in the Workers Party over the adoption of the new name "Progress Party". The South Australian branch originally preserved the "Workers Party" name until 1980 when it changed its name to the Libertarian Party.[1]
