This constituency was abolished in 1969. | |||||||||||||||||||
| Note:- | |||||||||||||||||||
| 1945: | After the incorrect calculation of the electoral quota was discovered, the Returning Officer consulted an expert in counting Single Transferable Vote elections who advised that restarting the count with a correct quota would only lengthen the process without producing a different result, and so it was decided to continue the process using the quota of 561. Further difficulties were encountered in the conduct of this election. | ||||||||||||||||||
