We encourage everyone to use this opportunity to contribute to the design of the new constituencies – the more public views we hear, the more informed our decisions will be when analysing all the views we receive. We ask everyone wishing to contribute to the design of the new constituencies to first read the Initial proposals report and accompanying maps before responding to us. In particular, we would like to know: • if you agree in full, in part or not at all with our initial proposals for the Eastern region; • which sub-regions you agree with and why; • which sub-regions you disagree with and why; and • if you can propose alternatives for areas you disagree with that meet the statutory rules we set out in our report. You can find more details of how to respond on our website, or you can write to us direct or email [email protected]. You can also find details of where and when we will be holding public hearings in your area on our website. 4 Eastern region 1. What is the Boundary Commission for England? 1. The Boundary Commission for England (BCE) is an independent and impartial non- departmental public body, which is required by Parliament to review Parliamentary constituency boundaries in England. We conduct a review of all the constituencies in England every five years. Our role is to make recommendations to Parliament for new constituency boundaries. 2. The Chair of the Commission is the Speaker of the House of Commons, but by convention he or she does not participate in the formulation of the Commission’s recommendations, nor in the conduct of the review. The Deputy Chair, Mr Justice Sales, and two further Commissioners take decisions on recommendations for new constituency boundaries. Further information about the Commissioners can be found in the ‘About us’ section of our website.1 3. Our website also contains all the information needed to view and comment on our initial proposals. You can also contact us with any general enquiries by emailing [email protected], by calling 020 7276 1102, or by writing to: The Secretary to the Commission Boundary Commission for England 35 Great Smith Street London SW1P 3BQ 1 At www.consultation.boundarycommissionforengland.independent.gov.uk/about-us/ Eastern region 5 2.
