Explanatory note

Original text. Later amendments are not shown.

(This note is not part of the Order)

This Order gives effect without modification to the recommendations contained in the report of the Boundary Commission for England dated 26th June 1998. The report contains proposals for changes to the areas of certain parliamentary constituencies where local government area changes which took effect after 1st June 1994 resulted in inconsistencies between local government boundaries and the parliamentary constituencies constituted by the Parliamentary Constituencies (England) Order 1995.

By virtue of section 4(6) of the Parliamentary Constituencies Act 1986, the coming into force of this Order does not affect any parliamentary election until a proclamation is issued by Her Majesty summoning a new Parliament.
