South Staffordshire was a constituency[n 1] represented in the House of Commons of the UK Parliament.[n 2]
Further to the completion of the 2023 Periodic Review of Westminster constituencies, the seat was abolished. Subject to major boundary changes, it will be reformed as Kingswinford and South Staffordshire, to be first contested at the 2024 general election.[2] Part of the constituency will be absorbed into the new seat of Stone, Great Wyrley and Penkridge, with Sir Gavin Williamson being chosen as its Conservative candidate.[3]
