text: # Pas-de-Calais's 6th constituency
  
  The 6th constituency of the Pas-de-Calais is a French legislative constituency in the Pas-de-Calais département.
  
  ## Description
  
  The borders of Pas-de-Calais' 6th Constituency were substantial altered as a result of the 2010 redistricting of French legislative constituencies leading to the constituency losing the northern portion of Boulogne-sur-Mer to Pas-de-Calais' 5th constituency.
  
  The constituency is notable for being the seat of former Minister of Culture Jack Lang who held the seat for ten years between 2002 and 2012.
