History and boundaries

The first constituency of this name was created by the Government of Ireland Act 1920 as a 4-seat constituency for the Southern Ireland House of Commons and a 1-seat constituency for the United Kingdom House of Commons at Westminster, combining the former Westminster constituencies of Dublin Clontarf, Dublin St James's and Dublin St Michan's. At the 1921 election for the Southern Ireland House of Commons, the seats were won uncontested by Sinn Féin, who treated it as part of the election to the Second Dáil. It was never used as a Westminster constituency; under s. 1(4) of the Irish Free State (Agreement) Act 1922, no writ was to be issued "for a constituency in Ireland other than a constituency in Northern Ireland". Therefore, no vote was held in Dublin North-West at the 1922 United Kingdom general election on 15 November 1922, shortly before the

on 6 December 1922. Under the Electoral Act 1923, which took effect at the 1923 general election, the area was divided between the constituencies of Dublin North and Dublin South. A second constituency with this name was created by the Electoral (Revision of Constituencies) Act 1935, dividing the old Dublin North constituency into Dublin North-West and Dublin North-East, and first used at the 1937 general election. It was abolished in 1977, under the Electoral (Amendment) Act 1974, with most of the constituency going to the new constituency of Dublin Finglas with a smaller but significant portion going to a new Dublin Cabra constituency. A third constituency with this name was created in the north-western area of the city by the Electoral (Amendment) Act 1980 and first used at the 1981 general election. The constituency is overwhelmingly urban; it encompasses Ballymun, Finglas and parts of Glasnevin (Ballygall) and the area of Whitehall to the west of Swords Road in the local government area of Dublin City. The Electoral (Amendment) Act 2023 defines the constituency as: {, class="wikitable collapsible" , - , + Changes to the Dublin North-West constituency 1921–1923, 1937–1977, 1981–present , - !Years !TDs !Boundaries !Notes , - style="vertical-align:top" , 1921–1923 , style="text-align:center", 4 , The wards of Clontarf East, Clontarf West and Drumcondra as well as that part of Mountjoy not in the constituency of Dublin Mid; New Kilmainham and Usher's Quay; and Arran Quay and Glasnevin , Created from Dublin Clontarf, Dublin St James's and Dublin St Michan's , - style="vertical-align:top" , 1923–1937 , style="text-align:center", — , style="text-align:center", Constituency abolished , Clontarf East, Clontarf West, Drumcondra, Mountjoy, Arran Quay and Glasnevin part of Dublin North; New Kilmainham and Usher's Quay part of Dublin South. , - style="vertical-align:top" , 1937–1948 , style="text-align:center", 5 , , Created from abolished constituency of Dublin City North; and transfer of townlands from Dublin County in line with transfer of territory from the county to the city in 1931. , - style="vertical-align:top" , 1948–1961 , style="text-align:center", 3 , , Transfer of Glasnevin, Inns Quay, North City, Rotunda and portion of Mountjoy wards to Dublin North-Central. , - style="vertical-align:top" , 1961–1969 , style="text-align:center", 3 , , Transfer of Arran Quay wards to Dublin North-Central; transfer of part of Glasnevin and the remainder of Cabragh East from Dublin North-Central , - style="vertical-align:top" , 1969–1977 , style="text-align:center", 4 , , Transfer of part of Cabragh East, Finglas East and Glasnevin to Dublin North-Central; transfer of part of Arran Quay from Dublin North-Central , - style="vertical-align:top" , 1977–1981 , style="text-align:center", — , style="text-align:center", Constituency abolished , Transfer of Cabra West and the parts of Arran Quay and Cabra East to Dublin Cabra; transfer of Finglas West to Dublin Finglas. , - style="vertical-align:top" , 1981–1992 , style="text-align:center", 5 , , Drumcondra North C and Santry B from Dublin Artane; Finglas East A, Finglas East B, Finglas East D, Finglas East E, Finglas East F, Finglas West A, Finglas West B and Finglas West C from Dublin Finglas; Drumcondra Rural, Finglas East C and Santry A from Dublin County North. , - style="vertical-align:top" , 1992–1997 , style="text-align:center", 4 , , Transfer of the area bounded on the south by the Royal Canal, lona Road and St Alphonsus Road and on the east by Drumcondra Road from Dublin Central; minor adjustments with Dublin North and Dublin North-Central. , - style="vertical-align:top" , 1997–2002 , style="text-align:center", 4 , , Transfer of part of the Phibsboro/ Drumcondra area from Dublin Central. , - style="vertical-align:top" , 2002–2007 , style="text-align:center", 3 , , Transfer of parts of Cabra and Drumcondra to Dublin Central; extension north to the M50. , - style="vertical-align:top" , 2007–2016 , style="text-align:center", 3 , , Transfer of Beaumont A and Whitehall D from Dublin North-Central; transfer of Blanchardstown-Abbotstown (part east of M50) from Dublin West. , - style="vertical-align:top" , 2016–2020 , style="text-align:center", 3 , , Transfer of Botanic A, B and C and Drumcondra South C from Dublin Central. , - style="vertical-align:top" , 2020–2024 , style="text-align:center", 3 , , Transfer of Botanic A, B and C and Drumcondra South C to Dublin Central. , - style="vertical-align:top" , 2024– , style="text-align:center", 3 , , {{hidden, Transfer of Beaumont B, Beaumont F and Kilmore A from Dublin Bay North; transfer of the remainder of Blanchardstown-Abbotstown and The Ward to Dublin West; and transfer of the remainder of Airport, Dubber and Turnapin to Dublin Fingal West.
