  "text": "(This note is not part of the Order)\nThis Order gives effect, subject to modifications, to recommendations by the Local Government Commission for England for electoral changes in the borough of Eastbourne. The changes have effect in relation to local government elections to be held on and after 2nd May 2002.\nThe modifications relate to the boundaries of one of the proposed new wards and the name of a ward. The Secretary of State has decided that the boundary between Ratton and Upperton wards should follow the entire length of Cross Levels Way until it reaches Kings Drive as shown on the map. The Secretary of State has also decided that the ward name “Roselands and St Anthony's” recommended by the Local Government Commission be changed to “St Anthony's”.\nArticle 2 abolishes the existing wards of the borough and provides for the creation of 9 new wards. That article also makes provision for the names and numbers of councillors for the new wards.\nArticle 3 makes provision for a whole council election in 2002 and for reversion to elections by thirds in subsequent years.\nArticle 4 revokes the Borough of Eastbourne (Electoral Arrangements) Order 1975.\nThe areas of the new borough wards are demarcated on the map described in article 1(3). Prints of the map may be inspected at all reasonable times at the offices of Eastbourne Council and at the offices of the Secretary of State for Transport, Local Government and the Regions, 2nd Floor, Ashdown House, 123 Victoria Street, London SW1E 6DE.",
