Dáil constituency (1921–present)
Wexford is a parliamentary constituency represented in Dáil Éireann , the lower house of the Irish parliament or Oireachtas . The constituency elects four deputies (Teachtaí Dála , commonly known as TDs) on the electoral system of proportional representation by means of the single transferable vote (PR-STV).
The constituency was created by the Government of Ireland Act 1920 and first used at the 1921 elections electing 4 deputies. Before 2024, it spanned the entire area of County Wexford , taking in Wexford , Enniscorthy , New Ross and Gorey .
The Electoral (Amendment) (Dáil Constituencies) Act 2017 defines the constituency as:[ 1]
"The county of Wexford."
The Constituency Review Report 2023 of the Electoral Commission recommended that at the next general election , Wexford lose a seat to become a four-seat constituency with the transfer of territory in the north of County Wexford to the new constituency of Wicklow–Wexford .[ 2]
For the 2024 general election , the Electoral (Amendment) Act 2023 defines the constituency as:[ 3]
"The county of Wexford except the part thereof which is comprised in the constituency of Wicklow-Wexford."
