Summary

Description

The UK is divided into areas called constituencies. One MP is elected to represent each of these areas. The size and number of constituencies are reviewed at intervals of between 8 and 12 years by the Boundary Commissioners. Any changes must be agreed by Parliament. This dataset contains all UK parliamentary constituencies, both present and historic, where boundary changes have led to the formation/dissolution of new/old constituencies. Use this dataset * If you want a list of constituencies, both current and historic(due to boundary changes) * If you want to link data to the Geographical data held by Ordnance Survey
