Sir Henry Simpson Newland, (24 November 1873 – 13 November 1969) was a distinguished Australian surgeon. As president of the Australian War Service League he was active in promoting selective conscription and martial law during the Second World War. The Henry Simpson Newland Prize is named in his honour. The medal was first awarded by the Federal Council of the British Medical Association in Australia, and since 1956, by the Australian Medical Association. He is commemorated by a plaque on the Jubilee 150 Walkway. A portrait of Newland by Ivor Hele won the 1953 Archibald Prize.
