answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 22/02/2019 answer text <p>It is through the electoral reviews undertaken by the independent Local Government Boundary Commission for England that there can be confidence about equality of representation for electors. Where new unitary councils are set up their electoral arrangements for the first election will be established either through a Commission’s electoral review, or if an early review is not practicable, provided for in the order creating the new council drawing on existing electoral arrangements established by the Commission for predecessor councils. In the latter case it is expected that the Commission would undertake a review for subsequent elections, particularly if it judged that equality of representation for electors was not being effectively delivered.</p> answering member constituency Richmond (Yorks) answering member printed Rishi Sunak question first answered 22/02/2019 15:08:31 answering member 4483 label Biography information for Rishi Sunak
