SINGAPORE - The boundaries of Marine Parade GRC will change significantly at the next general election, with the five-member constituency absorbing all of MacPherson SMC.

It will also take in an adjacent polling district from Mountbatten SMC, and cede polling districts from the Chai Chee Housing Board estates and Siglap private estates to East Coast GRC.

, the Electoral Boundaries Review Committee also recommended moving some polling districts from Potong Pasir SMC to Marine Parade GRC, given the new HDB developments in Bidadari that have increased the population in the single seat.

Marine Parade GRC will be renamed Marine Parade-Braddell Heights GRC to better reflect the identities of the geographical areas in the constituency, the committee said.

The renamed group representation constituency will have 131,493 electors, down from 139,738 registered voters in 2020.
