Stone was a constituency[n 1] in Staffordshire in the House of Commons of the UK Parliament. It was represented since its 1997 recreation by Sir Bill Cash, a Conservative.[n 2] On 9 June 2023, he announced his intention to stand down at the 2024 general election.[2]
Further to the completion of the 2023 Periodic Review of Westminster constituencies, the seat was abolished. Subject to moderate boundary changes, it will be reformed as Stone, Great Wyrley and Penkridge, to be first contested at the 2024 general election.[3]
