Parliamentary Constituency Codes and Names
Westminster parliamentary constituencies are the areas used to elect Members of Parliament (MPs) to the House of Commons, which is the primary legislative chamber of the UK and is located in Westminster, London.
At the May 2010 election there were 650 constituencies.
The Parliamentary Constituency code and name are matched to the Ward codes to provide the Constituency name for each Postcode in the UK. Due to up to 8% of Postcodes not having Ward codes yet, we have undertaken geographic proximity analysis to ensure every Postcode is allocated to an appropriate Parliamentary Constituency. Proximity analysis is based on the assumption that an unallocated Postcode falls within the same Parliamentary Constituency as its nearest neighbour and therefore the process cannot be guaranteed to provide exact results for this portion of the file.
The data is supplied as two separate CSV text files in order to allow opening and viewing of the data in Excel 2007 or later.
