Lord Brown of Eaton-under-Heywood Excerpts
Baroness Chisholm of Owlpen
As my noble friend knows, my mind is always open. However, in this case, I do not think there will be any change.
Lord Brown of Eaton-under-Heywood (CB)
Is the work being undertaken by the Boundary Commission on the basis of a 650-constituency Parliament, or is it adaptable to a 600-constituency Parliament? What, therefore, would be the result of giving or not giving effect to the proposed reduction regarding the present work of the commission?
Baroness Chisholm of Owlpen
If I understand the noble and learned Lord’s question correctly, the work is based on boundary reviews being carried out so that the number of MPs will go down from 650 to 600.
