HC Deb 19 December 1974 vol 883 c500W
31. Mr. Stanley

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether he will bring forward the next review by the Parliamentary Boundaries Commission.

Dr. Summerskill

The statutory timetable requires the four Boundary Commissions to make their next report, following a general review, between 1979 and 1984. My right hon. Friend has no power to change these dates. I have no doubt that the commissions are aware of the desirability of reporting at the earliest possible date.
