List of parliamentary constituencies in Northern Ireland

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Northern Ireland is divided into 18 parliamentary constituencies: 4 borough constituencies in Belfast and 14 county constituencies elsewhere. Section 33 of the Northern Ireland Act 1998 provides that the constituencies for the Northern Ireland Assembly are the same as the constituencies that are used for the United Kingdom Parliament.[1] Parliamentary constituencies are not used for local government, which is instead carried out by 11 district councils; these often have different boundaries.

Constituencies

[edit]

Each constituency returns one Member of Parliament (MP) to the House of Commons at Westminster and five Members of the Legislative Assembly (MLAs) to the devolved Northern Ireland Assembly at Stormont. Six MLAs were returned per constituency until the Assembly Members (Reduction of Numbers) Act (Northern Ireland) 2016 reduced the number to five, effective from the 2017 Assembly election.[2]

Notes:

  1. The constituency was won by Philip Clarke of Sinn Féin, but he was unseated on petition on the basis that his criminal conviction (for Irish Republican Army activity) made him ineligible. Instead, the seat was awarded to the Ulster Unionist Party (UUP) candidate.
  2. The seat was originally won by Tom Mitchell of Sinn Féin, but Mitchell was subsequently unseated upon petition, on the grounds that his terrorist convictions made him ineligible to sit in Parliament. The seat was awarded to Charles Beattie of the UUP. However, Beattie in turn was also found ineligible to sit due to holding an office of profit under the crown, triggering a further by-election.
  3. Original winner of the 1950 election in that seat, James Godfrey MacManaway (UUP), disqualified due to being a clergyman. Teevan won the subsequent by-election

1983 to present (17, then 18 MPs)

Boundary changes

[edit]

See 2023 Periodic Review of Westminster constituencies for further details.

Map of the 18 revised constituencies.

Following the abandonment of the Sixth Periodic Review (the 2018 review), the Boundary Commission for Northern Ireland formally launched the 2023 Review on 5 January 2021. In accordance with the provisions of the Parliamentary Constituencies Act 2020, the number of constituencies allocated to Northern Ireland was unchanged, at 18.[7] Initial proposals were published on 20 October 2021 and, following two periods of public consultation, revised proposals were published on 17 November 2022. Final recommendations were published on 28 June 2023.[8]

Under the recommendations, the following constituencies for Northern Ireland came into effect at the 2024 general election:[9]

Constituency Electorate Previous electorate[10]
Belfast East BC 70,076 66,273
Belfast North BC 71,372 72,332
Belfast South and Mid Down BC 71,978 70,134 (former Belfast South constituency)
Belfast West BC 71,921 65,761
East Antrim CC 69,936 64,907
East Londonderry CC 72,213 69,359
Fermanagh and South Tyrone CC 74,643 72,945
Foyle CC 69,890 74,431
Lagan Valley CC 76,332 75,884
Mid Ulster CC 70,094 70,501
Newry and Armagh CC 74,585 81,329
North Antrim CC 71,165 77,156
North Down CC 70,412 67,109
South Antrim CC 71,646 71,915
South Down CC 71,772 79,295
Strangford CC 70,070 66,990
Upper Bann CC 76,969 83,028
West Tyrone CC 70,614 66,339

Belfast South and Mid Down is a new constituency, replacing the former Belfast South constituency which had a much smaller area. All of the others have undergone boundary changes, primarily to bring the electorate within the range of 69,724 to 77,062 as required by the Parliamentary Constituencies Act 1986 (as amended in 2020).[11]
