§ Viscount WOLMERasked the President of the Local Government Board whether it is intended to rearrange the wards of the township of Bold, near St. Helens, Lancashire; if so, how many wards there will be in Bold and how many in Clock-face; and whether any public inquiry will be held in the neighbourhood on the subject?
§ Mr. BURNSI have received no information as to a proposed division of this township into wards. The division of parishes into wards for the election of rural district councillors is a matter for the county council, or where a union is in two counties of a joint committee of the two councils concerned, and would not necessarily come before the Local Government Board for determination.
