Mr. Chapman
asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department when he expects to announce his decision on the proposals for changes in Birmingham ward boundaries.
Mr. R. A. Butler
The commissioner whom I appointed to prepare a scheme with respect to the petition presented under Section 25 of the Local Government Act, 1933, by the Birmingham City Council, has now sent his scheme to me. I am required by the Act to submit it to Her Majesty in Council, who may approve it, with or without modifica- tions, or reject it. I shall submit it as soon as practicable.
