Carmarthen East and Dinefwr (Welsh: Dwyrain Caerfyrddin a Dinefwr) was a constituency of the House of Commons of the Parliament of the United Kingdom last represented since 2010 by Jonathan Edwards of Plaid Cymru. It elected one Member of Parliament (MP) by the first past the post system of election. It was created in 1997, mostly from the former seat of Carmarthen.
The Carmarthen East and Dinefwr Senedd constituency was created with the same boundaries in 1999 (as an Assembly constituency).
The constituency was abolished as part of the 2023 Periodic Review of Westminster constituencies and under the June 2023 final recommendations of the Boundary Commission for Wales. Its wards were divided between Caerfyrddin (Carmarthen) and Llanelli.[3]
