Welsh Parliamentary Constituency Boundaries

EDM number 1022 in 1993-94, proposed by Rhodri Morgan on 14/04/1994.

That this House congratulates the communities of Ewenny, Wick, St. Bride's Major, Pentyrch and Cregian in Mid Glamorgan and Llanelly in Gwent on having the threat of gerrymandering lifted that would have engineered their inclusion in parliamentary constituencies in South Glamorgan and Powys, respectively, which threat was lifted by the publication on 14th April of the legal notices commencing the public enquiries into new parliamentary constituency boundaries which will no longer be obliged to take any account of the new local government boundaries contained within the Local Government (Wales) Bill (Lords), now that it has been accepted by the Boundary Commission, the Home Office and the Welsh Office that the Bill has no realistic prospect of reaching the Statute Book by 1st June, the latest date by which the Parliamentary Boundary Commission for Wales was obliged to take account of those new local government boundaries.

This motion has been signed by a total of 23 MPs.
