After the 2005 general election the parliamentary representation in North Yorkshire was reviewed by the Boundary Commission for England, which recommended the division of the former City of York constituency before the 2010 general election leading to two constituencies within the borders of the city of York - York Central is entirely surrounded by York Outer.
York Central is one of only two UK Parliament constituencies to be surrounded by another constituency. The other constituency, Bath, is entirely surrounded by North East Somerset.Boundaries
York Central is formed from electoral wards from within the city of York.
