asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department on what date he received the final report from the Local Government Boundary Commission for England on its proposals for future electoral arrangements for the district of North Cornwall; and on what date he proposes to make the necessary order under section 51(2) of the Local Government Act 1972 giving effect to the changes involved.

I would refer the hon. Member to the reply I gave to Questions by the hon. Member for Guildford (Mr. Howell) on 22nd November.—[Vol. 958, c. 592–6.]
