The 2011 Act specified that the Isle of Wight should comprise two seats. The Boundary Commission for England submitted its final proposals in respect of the 2018 Review in September 2018. These specified that the island be divided into East and West seats, with Newport being included in the West seat. Although the proposals were laid before Parliament they were not brought forward by the Government for approval. Accordingly, they did not come into effect for the 2019 election which took place on 12 December.
