	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 17/10/2016 answer text <p>We do not believe there is an inherent or structural reason why female representation in the House of Commons should be affected by updating Parliamentary boundaries. Each constituent part of the United Kingdom will be treated equally. The appointment of candidates to contest these new seats will be a matter for political parties. We consider that it is primarily for political parties to ensure more diverse representation (including that of women) in the House of Commons through their selection of candidates.</p> answering member constituency Kingswood answering member printed Chris Skidmore question first answered 17/10/2016 09:43:57 answering member 4021 label Biography information for Chris Skidmore
