DESIGNATION OF POLLING DISTRICTS AT PARLIAMENTARY ELECTIONS: NORTHERN IRELAND
Polling districts and places for parliamentary elections in Northern Ireland were previously those established under the law relating to local elections. By virtue of section 18E of the Representation of the People Act 1983, polling places at parliamentary elections were the same as local government wards. However, some of the wards recently established by the Local Government (Boundaries) Order (Northern Ireland) 2012 fall between two parliamentary constituencies, so it is no longer appropriate to maintain the link between parliamentary polling districts and local government wards. The Local Elections (Northern Ireland) Order 2013, which came into force on 12 December 2013, removed the formal link between parliamentary and local election polling districts.
Article 9 of the Local Elections (Northern Ireland) Order 2013 states that every constituency in Northern Ireland is to be divided into polling districts and the Secretary of State must divide Northern Ireland into polling districts for the purposes of parliamentary elections. The Secretary of State must seek to ensure that all electors in Northern Ireland have such reasonable facilities for voting as are practicable in the circumstances. Before dividing Northern Ireland into polling districts the Secretary of State must consult the Electoral Commission and any other appropriate persons.
The polling districts designated by the Secretary of State for the purposes of parliamentary elections in Northern Ireland are set out at Annex A. The Electoral Commission and the Chief Electoral Officer and his staff have been consulted on the proposed districts. Each district shall comprise the area designated on the maps showing the parliamentary constituency boundaries and the wards therein. The maps are held by the Northern Ireland Office and are also published online on the Boundary Commission for Northern Ireland website www.boundarycommission.org.uk.
The polling district boundaries (and codes) listed in Annex A are based on the wards established by the Local Government (Boundaries) Order (Northern Ireland) 1992 before it was revoked. They are the polling districts used for the 2010 Parliamentary elections and 2011 elections to the Northern Ireland Assembly. No changes have been made to parliamentary constituency boundaries.
The Secretary of State will keep these polling districts under review.
