1. As a consequence of suggestions which had arisen in the course of the review of their internal parish boundaries, the Council, in the non-metropolitan of , asked us to carry out a review of parts of their 's boundaries with the District of (also in Humberside) and with the District of (in the non- of North ). The Borough Council sought the following changes:

(i) the transfer to the parish of in Boothferry of part of the parish of in Beverley district: (ii) the transfer of part of the parish of in Boothferry to the parish of in Selby division.

2. Having obtained the views of all the interested local authorities we considered the Council's requests, as required by Section 48(4) of the Local Government Act 1972. In doing so, we had regard to the guidelines contained.in the Department of the Environment Circular 33/78 and to our own Report No. 287.

3. We noted that the changes were miner, involved very small areas of land and affected a total of two residents. We also noted that with the exception of Humberside , who wished to see no change, the changes were supported by all the local authorities involved. We concluded that the suggestions met the criteria set out in paragraph 14 of Department of the Environment Circular No. 33/78, Humberside County Council had supplied no reasons to support their view and we considered that their opposition, on its ov/n, was insufficient to justify the, rejection or deferment of Boothferry Borough Council's requests.

4- Accordingly we decided that we should undertake a review and that the circumstances were sufficiently exceptional to enable us to shorten our norms! procedure by publishing our draft proposals, based upon the Council's suggestions, at the same time as we announced our intention to carry out a review.

5. On 23 August 1982 we issued a consultation letter announcing the start of the review and giving details of our draft proposals. '-L"he letter was addressed to Boothferry Borough Council, Beverley District Council and Selby Listrict Council, whilst copies were sent to Humberside and County Councils, Balne, Broomfleet, Pollington and South Cave Parish Councils, the Members cf Parliament for the constituencies concerned, the headquarters of the main political parties and to the editors of the local government press. The start of the review and publication of our draft proposals was also advertised by public notice in the three and by announcements which appeared in the local press. The three district councils to v/hom the letter',- was addressed were asked to deposit copies of the draft proposals at their .•nain offices for inspection for a period of six weeks. Comments on the review and on the draft proposals were invited by 26 October 190*2.

HESPCKSE TO THE JBAFT PROPOSALS 6. UB received replies from the North Yorkshire County Council, from Dr Edmund Marshall MP, from Boothferry Borough Council, from Pollington and South Cave Parish Councils, all of which had no objection to the draft proposals. Haltemprice and Beverley Conservative Association acknowledged receipt of the draft proposals but did not make any comments, Ro replies were received from Beverley Borougfr Council, Gelby District Council, Balne Parish Council or Broofflfleet Parish Council but they had ' already indicated that they had no objections to the alterations prior to our " publication of draft proposals. No further observations were received from Humberside County Council to support their contention that there should be no alteration in the boundaries.

7. ffe are satisfied that in the interests of effective and convenient local government the boundary between the Borousji of Boptuferry and the Districts of Beverley and Gelby should be re-aligned as indicated in our draft proposals. We therefore confirm these as our final proposals.

8. Details of these final proposals are set out in Schedules 1 - 3 to this report, Schedule 1 specifies the the proposed changes in local authority areas; the proposed boundary is illustrated on the attached -?.ap. Schedules 2 and 3 specify the consequential adjustments to th= existing electoral arrangem
