[edit] Boundaries
Following their review of parliamentary representation in West Yorkshire, the Boundary Commission for England have created this new cross-border constituency as a consequence of the county losing one parliamentary seat following population decline.
It will be made up of three Leeds City Council wards:
- Ardsley (see East Ardsley and West Ardsley) and Robin Hood
- Morley North
- Morley South
and two Wakefield City Council wards:
- Stanley and Outwood East
- Wrenthorpe and Outwood West.
