New Lynn is a New Zealand Parliamentary electorate, returning one member to the New Zealand House of Representatives. Its current representative is David Cunliffe, a member of the Labour Party. He has represented the seat since 2002. Cunliffe was the MP for Titirangi from 1999 to 2002. Titirangi replaced New Lynn in 1999 when population changes in Auckland lead to the creation of Mount Roskill. Three years later, population growth in north Auckland led to the creation of Helensville. The flow-on effect of this was to pull Titirangi eastwards, resulting in the reclamation of its former name.
New Lynn is based in west Auckland, straddling the borders of Auckland and Waitakere cities. It contains the suburbs of Blockhouse Bay, New Lynn and Titirangi, and its borders extend to cover all the beachside towns on the north coast of Manukau Harbour.
Unless otherwise stated, all MPs terms began and ended at general elections.
