Former European Parliament constituency
Prior to its uniform adoption of
proportional representation in 1999, the United Kingdom used
first-past-the-post for the
European elections in England,
Scotland and
Wales. The
European Parliament constituencies used under that system were smaller than the later regional constituencies and only had one
Member of the European Parliament each.
The constituency of Durham was one of them.
From 1979 to 1984, it consisted of the
Westminster Parliament constituencies of
Bishop Auckland,
Chester-le-Street,
Consett,
Darlington,
Durham,
Durham North West,
Easington, and
Houghton-le-Spring.
[1] From 1984 to 1999 it consisted of:
Bishop Auckland,
Blaydon,
City of Durham,
Darlington,
Easington,
North Durham,
North West Durham,
Sedgefield.
