HC Deb 10 February 1888 vol 322 c149
MR. KENYON (Denbigh, & c.)

asked the President of the Local Government Board, When the Report of the Commission on County Boundaries will be issued, and what opportunities will be given for its discussion?

THE PRESIDENT (Mr. RITCHIE) (Tower Hamlets, St. George's)

It is not in my power to say when the Report of the Commissioners will be issued. The inquiry is one of a very complicated character, and I cannot anticipate an early Report. It is not possible to make any engagement as to its discussion in the meantime; but I can undertake that no alterations in county boundaries will be made without giving the House an opportunity of discussing them.
