The constitution of the Diocese of Perth was passed and adopted in 1872 at the first synod held in Western Australia.

The diocese incorporates the southern part of the state of Western Australia and includes the Christmas and Cocos Islands. The other dioceses in the Anglican Province of Western Australia are the Diocese of Bunbury and the Diocese of North West Australia.
