HC Deb 26 November 1979 vol 974 cc537-8W
Mr. Alexander

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment when the Local Government Boundary Commission will finalise the arrangements for parish council status for Newark.

Mr. King

This is a matter for the Local Government Boundary Commission. My right hon. Friend can take no action until he has received the Commission's proposals.

This responsibility will be transferred to the sport and recreation division on 1 December 1979. The list below shows which divisions are particularly concerned with the effects of certain policies on children, the responsible Minister and, where applicable, the appropriate statutes.
