The CPA was founded as the '''Empire Parliamentary Association''' in 1911, with its first branches being Australia, Canada, [[Dominion of Newfoundland|Newfoundland]], New Zealand, South Africa and the United Kingdom, the latter branch administering the Association as a whole. In 1948 the Association changed its name to the current Commonwealth Parliamentary Association, and invited all branches to participate in the organisation's administration. | The CPA was founded as the '''Empire Parliamentary Association''' in 1911, with its first branches being Australia, Canada, [[Dominion of Newfoundland|Newfoundland]], New Zealand, South Africa and the United Kingdom, the latter branch administering the Association as a whole.
