2021 boundary review
Following a decision in 2021 by the Local Democracy and Boundary Commission for Wales, the SA1 Swansea Waterfront and Swansea Docks areas were carved off from the St. Thomas ward, to become part of a new Waterfront ward. The change was effective from the 2022 local elections.[2] All the same, St. Thomas retained two city councillors.
