List of Parliamentary constituencies in Devon

The ceremonial county of Devon, (which includes the unitary authorities of
Torbay and Plymouth)is divided into 11 Parliamentary constituencies- 4 Borough constituenciesand 7 County constituencies.

The Boundary Commission for England has recommended that the county should in future bedivided into 12 constituencies. This is based on the calculation of an electorate of 823,470 divided by the 2000 electoral quota of 69,934, giving a theoretical entitlement of 11.77 seats. Therefore the Central Devon CC has been proposed [http://www.statistics.gov.uk/pbc/review_areas/devon.asp] .

These changes are expected to be implemented at the United Kingdom general election, 2009/10.
