Paragraph 8 Final report on the 2026 boundary reviewI1

England and Wales

(1)

Before 1 April 2025 the Commission must—

(a)

make and publish a final report, and

(b)

send it to the Welsh Ministers.

(2)

The final report must set out the Senedd constituencies, including—

(a)

which contiguous UK parliamentary constituencies in Wales are to be combined to create the areas of the 16 Senedd constituencies,

(b)

the name of each constituency, and

(c)

whether each constituency is a county constituency or borough constituency.

(3)

The final report must also specify details of any changes to the proposals set out in the second report, and explain why those changes have been made.

(4)

A failure by the Commission to submit a report to the Welsh Ministers before 1 April 2025 does not invalidate the report.

(5)

As soon as reasonably practicable after receiving the final report, the Welsh Ministers must lay it before the Senedd.
