Boundaries
The National University of Ireland is a federal university system of constituent universities (previously university colleges), and recognised colleges set up under the Irish Universities Act, 1908, and amended by the Universities Act, 1997.
As part of the redistribution of Parliamentary seats in 1918, the NUI was enfranchised as a new non-territorial Parliamentary constituency.
