The Representation of the People (Ireland) Act 1868 (31 & 32 Vict c 49) was an Act of Parliament in the United Kingdom. The Act did not alter the overall distribution of parliamentary seats in Ireland. It was originally proposed to merge twelve smaller boroughs into six pairs on the model of Scottish district of burghs and Welsh , with the freed-up seats being transferred to the six most populous county constituencies. This was rejected by Parliament, although the act as passed did alter the boundaries of those parliamentary boroughs which were also municipal boroughs, extending the parliamentary boundary to include all the municipal boundary. Only 11 of Ireland's 33 parliamentary boroughs were municipal boroughs under the Municipal Corporations (Ireland) Act 1840.
