In Great Britain, the Conservatives won 36 of the 81 seats, with Labour winning 29. Plaid Cymru, the Green Party and the UK Independence Party gained their first ever MEPs.

In Northern Ireland, the DUP gained the most number of first preference votes. The DUP, SDLP and UUP shared the three seats in Northern Ireland.

Turnout in Great Britain was around 23%, with around 57% voting in Northern Ireland. Turnout in the UK was lower than in any other EU country and than in any previous election to the European Parliament.

I Introduction

Elections took place for the European Parliament throughout the EU between 10 and 13 June 1999. This paper sets out results of these elections, largely for the UK, but also provides additional material on the results throughout the EU. It provides an early statistical digest of the results rather than a discussion or analysis of them.

The June 1999 elections were the first national elections in Great Britain to use a form of proportional representation. This involved aggregating votes in Great Britain for regions to determine the number of MEPs for each party using the d’Hondt quota system. (Northern Ireland retained its system of electing its three MEPs by Single Transferable Vote.) The regional aggregates in GB were compiled from returns made for Westminster constituency areas by local returning offices. The voting figures in this paper for Westminster constituencies have been provided by regional returning officers and these are set out in full in Table 11.

II Summary results

The following table compares the number of UK European Parliament seats by party won in 1994 and 1997. These are compared with two estimates of what would have happened if the current PR system had been used in 1994 and if a first-past-the-post (FPTP) constituency-based system had continued to be used in 1999. In both cases the actual votes cast have been used for these calculations with no allowance for changes in voting behaviour that might occur under different electoral systems.

It is calculated as the sum of the differences between the proportion of seats and votes, divided by 2 and subtracted from 100. A system that yields the same proportion of seats as votes would score 100. The further away from 100 the less proportional the result.

The number of ballot papers rejected in the count was 24,867 in Great Britain and 8,764 in Northern Ireland. In the 1994 European Parliament elections 32,316 had been rejected in Great Britain and 9,234 in Northern Ireland. In the 1997 General Election the

7 RESEARCH PAPER 99/64 equivalent totals were 90,288 for GB and 3,120 for Northern Ireland. As a proportion of the total poll, the rate of rejected papers was slightly less for GB in 1999, 25 per 10,000 total papers, than in the 1997 General Election, 30 per 10,000, and marginally higher than in 1994, 21 per 10,000.

The 1999 European Election votes by party were made available for Westminster constituencies, it is therefore possible to compare the number of Westminster seats that would have been won in Great Britain had voting in a General Election followed exactly the same pattern. These are shown, together with the 1997 General Election results below: House of Commons seats by party - UK

Overall, 208 seats would have changed hands compared with the General Election of 1997. The Conservative Party would have gained a total of 159, including 144 from Labour, with no losses.
