1998 Constituencies Revision Summary

The main changes in the Constituency Commission Report 1998 concern Dublin Constituencies. A new 3 seater constituency of Dublin Mid West is created from parts of Dublin South West and Dublin West, and an extra seat is added to Dublin South Central to make it a five seater. Dublin North East, Dublin North West and Dublin West are reduced from four to three seats, and Dublin South West loses a seat to become a four seater.

All 11 existing Dublin constituencies are revised to some extent, and there are minor changes to 10 other constituencies across the country.
