Background 2.1 At its meeting on 1 December 201 1, the Committee noted the statutory requirement for a review of United Kingdom Parliamentary Constituencies, the initial proposals formulated by the Boundary Commission for Scotland and the consultation arrangements. The Committee then agreed to appoint a Working Group to give consideration to the initial proposals and, at its meeting on 15 December 2011, the Council noted the recommendations of the Working Group and approved, for submission, a consultation response. 2.2 At its meeting on 1 December 2011 the Committee noted also that, following the initial twelve week consultation period, the Boundary Commission for Scotland would publish on its website the representations received and the record of the public hearings and would invite written comments during a further period of four weeks. This was done and, at its meeting on 14 March 2012, the Council noted the consultation responses and approved a submission which, with the benefit of additional considerations arising from the consultation responses, adhered to the initial consultation submissions made by the Council. 2.3 Having considered all responses, the Boundary Commission for Scotland has now published revised proposals for an eight week final public consultation period.
