My Proposed Electoral Boundaries

So to summarize my previous 5 posts, these are my Proposed Electoral Boundaries for the upcoming election. 

We would have:

12x Single Member Constituencies (SMC) 

5x 3-Membered Group Representative Constituencies (GRC) 

4x 4-Membered Group Representative Constituencies (GRC) 

9x 5-Membered Group Representative Constituencies (GRC) 

1x 6-Membered Group Representative Constituencies (GRC) 

For a grand total of 94 seats, up from 87 seats available at the 2011 election. 

Single Member Constituencies (SMC) 

The proposed number of SMCs would increase by 1, from 2011. We would see the retention of 3 SMCs (Mountbatten, Joo Chiat and Potong Pasir), the rearranging and renaming of 2 SMCs (Radin Mas to Telok Blangah, and Whampoa to Balestier) and the formation of 7 new SMCs. 

3-Membered Group Representative Constituencies (GRC) 

This proposed electoral boundaries will see the re-introduction of the 3-Membered GRCs, which is the minimum size of a Group Representation Constituency, according to the constitution and the Parliamentary Elections Act, but not seen in Singapore since the 1988 General Election where Pasir Panjang and Tiong Bahru were the only two 3-membered GRCs. This move is also in line with PM Lee's directive for smaller GRCs, bringing the average size of the GRCs to 4.3 members in a GRC.

4-Membered Group Representative Constituencies (GRC) 

There is a increase in the number of 4 membered GRCs, from 2 in 2011, to the proposed 4.

5-Membered Group Representative Constituencies (GRC) 

There is a small proposed decrease, from eleven 5-member GRCs to nine.

6-Membered Group Representative Constituencies (GRC) 

There is a 50% reduction of 6 membered GRCs from the current 2 (Pasir Ris-Punggol GRC and Ang Mo Kio GRC) to the proposed single GRC.
