The '''electoral division of Lyons''' ({{IPAc-en|ˈ|l|aɪ|ə|n|z}}) is one of the [[Tasmanian House of Assembly electoral divisions|five electorates]] in the [[Tasmanian House of Assembly]], with the largest electorate and covering most of central and eastern [[Tasmania]]. Lyons is named jointly in honour of [[Joseph Lyons]], [[Prime Minister of Australia]] (1932–1939); [[Premier of Tasmania]] (1923–1928), and Joseph's wife, [[Dame Enid Lyons]], the first woman elected to the Australian House of Representatives in 1943. The electorate shares its name and boundaries with the [[Division of Lyons|federal division of Lyons]].

Lyons and the other House of Assembly electoral divisions are each represented by five members elected under the [[Hare-Clark electoral system]].

==History and electoral profile==
Before 1984, it was known as the Division of Wilmot. In 1984, it was renamed to jointly honour [[Joseph Lyons]], and his wife, [[Dame Enid Lyons]], the first woman elected to the Australian House of Representatives in 1943 and subsequently the first female member of Cabinet (1949–1951). Joseph Lyons represented the area for over 30 years at the state (1909-1929) and federal (1929-1939) levels.

Lyons is the largest electorate in [[Tasmania]] measuring 33,212&nbsp;km<sup>2</sup>, it includes the far northern suburbs of [[Hobart]] and the towns of [[St Helens, Tasmania|St. Helens]], [[Swansea, Tasmania|Swansea]], [[Bicheno, Tasmania|Bicheno]], [[Campbell Town, Tasmania|Campbell Town]], [[Longford, Tasmania|Longford]], [[Evandale, Tasmania|Evandale]] and [[Bothwell, Tasmania|Bothwell]].<ref>[http://www.electoral.tas.gov.au/pages/HouseOfAssembly/Lyons.html Lyons] {{webarchive |url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120321135823/http://www.electoral.tas.gov.au/pages/HouseOfAssembly/Lyons.html |date=March 21, 2012 }}, ''Tasmanian Electoral Commission''</ref>
