Foyle (Irish: An Feabhal, Ulster Scots: Foyle) is a constituency in the Northern Ireland Assembly.

Contents

The seat was first used for a Northern Ireland-only election for the Northern Ireland Forum in 1996. Since 1998, it has elected members to the current Assembly.

For Assembly elections prior to 1996, the constituency was largely part of the Londonderry constituency. Since 1997, it has shared boundaries with the Foyle UK Parliament constituency.
