For the 2023 Periodic Review of Westminster constituencies, which redrew the constituency map ahead of the 2024 United Kingdom general election, the Boundary Commission for England opted to combine Newcastle upon Tyne and North Tyneside with Northumberland as a sub-region of the North East Region, with the creation of two cross-county boundary constituencies comprising an expanded Hexham seat and a new seat named Cramlington and Killingworth. Gateshead, South Tyneside and Sunderland would be combined with County Durham, resulting in another cross-county boundary constituency, named Blaydon and Consett. The constituencies names of Blaydon, Gateshead, Jarrow, North Tyneside, Newcastle upon Tyne Central, Newcastle upon Tyne East, and Washington and Sunderland West were abolished, and new or re-established constituency names of Gateshead Central and Whickham, Jarrow and Gateshead East, Newcastle upon Tyne Central and West, Newcastle upon Tyne East and Wallsend, and Washington and Gateshead South created.^[1][2]

Under the Fifth Periodic Review of Westminster constituencies, the Boundary Commission for England decided to reduce the number of seats in Tyne and Wear from 13 to 12, leading to significant changes. The constituencies of Gateshead East and Washington West, Houghton and Washington East, Sunderland North, Sunderland South, and Tyne Bridge were abolished and replaced with Gateshead, Houghton and Sunderland South, Sunderland Central, and Washington and Sunderland West. Newcastle upon Tyne East and Wallsend became Newcastle upon Tyne East.
