Following the abandonment of the Sixth Periodic Review (the 2018 review), the Boundary Commission for England formally launched the 2023 Review on 5 January 2021. The Commission calculated that the number of seats to be allocated to the East Midlands region will increase by one, from 46 to 47.

The final proposals were published on 28 June 2023.
