This is a list of the constituencies which are expected to be established at the time of the next United Kingdom general election, which will occur no later than 3 June 2010.

In Scotland a new set of seats was created for the 2005 election and seats will be the same as those fought in that election.

In Wales the Boundary Commission finalised its proposals for changes and these have been given legal effect by The Parliamentary Constituencies and Assembly Electoral Regions (Wales) Order 2006 (S.I. 2006 No. 1041) made on 11 April 2006.]

In England, the Boundary Commission finalised its proposals for changes and these have been given legal effect by The Parliamentary Constituencies (England) Order 2007 (S.I. 2007 No. 1681) made on 13 June, 2007. Four constituency boundaries were then slightly altered in March 2009 by The Parliamentary Constituencies (England) (Amendment) Order 2009 (S.I. 2009 No. 698).
