HC Deb 10 March 1978 vol 945 c792W
Mr. Viggers

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department when he expects to make a statement on the Boundary Commission recommendations for local government within the borough of Gosport.

Mr. Merlyn Rees

Pending the outcome of the appeal by the Local Government Boundary Commission for England against a judgment delivered in the High Court on 25th January, I have deferred further consideration of a number of reports submitted to me by the Commission. The report on new electoral arrangements for the borough of Gosport is affected by this deferment.
