The district elected four members to Fermanagh District Council, and formed part of the Fermanagh and South Tyrone constituencies for the Northern Ireland Assembly and UK Parliament.
It was created for the 1973 local elections, and contained the wards of Castlecoole, Devenish, Erne and Rossorry. It was abolished for the 1985 local elections and replaced with the Enniskillen DEA.
