The Shire of Gascoyne-Minilya was a local government area in Western Australia.
It was established on 17 March 1911 as the Gascoyne-Minilya Road District with the amalgamation of the Lower Gascoyne Road District and the Minilya Road District.[1] It was based in the town of Carnarvon, although the township was located in the separate Municipality of Carnarvon.[2]
A section of the district was severed on 11 August 1911 with the establishment of the Mullewa Road District.[1]
It was declared a shire with effect from 1 July 1961 following the passage of the Local Government Act 1960, which reformed all remaining road districts into shires.[1]
The Shire of Exmouth was separated from Gascoyne-Minilya on 13 December 1963 due to the development of the town of Exmouth.[1]
It ceased to exist on 12 February 1965 when it amalgamated with the Town of Carnarvon to form the Shire of Carnarvon.[1]
