The Act of Union in 1800 abolished the Parliament of Ireland, and Ireland was allocated 100 seats in the House of Commons of the United Kingdom at Westminster. Waterford was one of the 31 boroughs which were selected to retain parliamentary representation, and a ballot was held to choose which of each borough's MPs should be co-opted as the initial holder of the single seat which would be allocated to them in the new parliament. Alcock was chosen by ballot as Waterford's first Westminster MP, in preference to his colleague Robert Shapland Carew. At the general election in 1802, Alcock was returned as to Westminster for the new single-seat borough of Waterford.He had beaten Sir John Newport by 471 votes to 470,but an election petition was lodged.
