Fermanagh and South Tyrone is a constituency in theNorthern Ireland Assembly.
It was first used for aNorthern Ireland-only election in 1973, which elected thethen Northern Ireland Assembly. It usually shares boundaries with theFermanagh and South Tyrone UK Parliament constituency. However, the boundaries of the two constituencies were slightly different from 1983 to 1986 (because the Assembly boundaries had not caught up with Parliamentary boundary changes) and from 1996 to 1997, when members of theNorthern Ireland Forum had been elected from the newly drawn Parliamentary constituencies but the 51stParliament of the United Kingdom, elected in 1992 under the 1983–95 constituency boundaries, was still in session.
Members were then elected from the constituency to the1975 Constitutional Convention, the1982 Assembly, the1996 Forum and then to the current Assembly from 1998.
For further details of the history and boundaries of the constituency, seeFermanagh and South Tyrone (UK Parliament constituency).
