Parliamentary Boundary Review
The 2013 Review of Parliamentary Constituencies Explained
The Boundary Commission for England is the independent public body that reviews all Parliamentary constituency boundaries in England every five years.
They are currently carrying out a review under new rules laid down by Parliament. This Review, which concludes in 2013, means substantial changes to Parliamentary constituencies in England: reducing the total number of constituencies from 533 to 502 and making sure that each constituency has similar numbers of registered electors. In many cases this means redrawing the existing boundaries.
