(1)

By virtue of section 2 of the Government of Wales Act 2006 (c. 32) Assembly constituencies are the constituencies specified in S.I. 2006/1041 as amended by S.I. 2008/1791 and an Order in Council under the Parliamentary Constituencies Act 1986 (c. 56) giving effect to an order under section 13(4) or (5) of the Parliamentary Voting Systems and Constituencies Act 2011 (c. 1) (such an order, S.I. 2011/2987, has been made). As a result of amendments made to S.I. 2006/1041 by S.I. 2011/2987 Assembly constituencies and Parliamentary constituencies are no longer coterminous. Assembly constituencies continue to be specified however by reference to whether they are county or borough constituencies.
