Constituencies of Singapore are electoral divisions which may be represented by single or multiple seats in the Parliament of Singapore. Constituencies are classified as SINGLE MEMBER CONSTITUENCY (SMC) and GROUP REPRESENTATION CONSTITUENCY (GRC) for single-seat constituency and multiple-seat constituency, respectively.
In 1988, the ruling People's Action Party amended the Parliamentary Elections Act to create GRCs and to MOVE AWAY FROM THE SINGLE MEMBER CONSTITUENCY system.[1] GRCs started out at a size of 3 in 1988 but have steadily grown bigger in subsequent elections.
The current act enables the President, who is generally under advice of the Elections Department, to create a GRC from 3 to 6 electoral wards
