Devizes /dɪvaɪzɪz/ is a constituency[n 1] in Wiltshire, England, represented in the House of Commons of the UK Parliament since 2019 by Danny Kruger, a Conservative.[n 2]
The constituency includes four towns and many villages in the middle and east of the county. The area's representative has been a Conservative since 1924.
Further to the completion of the 2023 Periodic Review of Westminster constituencies, the seat will be subject to boundary changes which entail the loss of the town of Devizes to the newly created constituency of Melksham and Devizes. As a consequence, it will be renamed East Wiltshire, to be first contested at the 2024 general election.[2][3]
