The report also recommended a transfer of territory from Dublin North-West.

The Electoral (Amendment) Act 2023 defines the constituency as:

"In the county of Fingal the electoral divisions of:
Airport, Balbriggan Rural, Balbriggan Urban, Ballyboghil, Balscadden, Clonmethan, Dubber, Garristown, Hollywood, Holmpatrick, Kilsallaghan, Lusk, Rush, Skerries, Turnapin."
