HC Deb 02 December 1953 vol 521 c146W
Mr. Llewellyn

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether he is aware of the disparity between ward populations in the city of Cardiff; and whether he will make a statement.

Sir D. Maxwell Fyfe

Alterations of the wards of municipal boroughs can only be made in pursuance of a petition to Her Majesty in Council by the borough council. In the absence of a petition I have no power to take any action.
