We, the Local Government Boundary Commission for England, having carried out our initial review of the electoral arrangements for the metropolitan borough of Kirklees in accordance with the requirements of section 63-of, and Schedule 9 to, the Local Government Act 1972, present our proposals for the future electoral arrangements for that borough. 2. In accordance with the procedure laid down in section 60(1) and (2) of the 1972 Act, notice was given on 27 August 1975 that we were to undertake this review. This was incorporated in a consultation letter addressed to the Kirklees Metropolitan Borough Council, copies of which were circulated to West Yorkshire County Council, parish councils, the Members of Parliament for the constituencies concerned and the headquarters of the main political, parties. Copies were also sent to the editors of local newspapers circulating in the area, and of the local government press. Notices inserted in the local press announced the start of the review and invited comments from members of the public1 and from interested bodies. 3- Kirklees Metropolitan Borough Council were invited to prepare a draft scheme of representation for our consideration. In doing so, they were asked to observe the rules laid down in Schedule 11 to the Local Government Act 1972 and. the guidelines which we set out' in our Report No 6 about the proposed size of the council and the proposed number of councillors for each ward. They were asked also to take into account any views expressed: to them following their v consultation with local interests. We therefore asked that they should publish details of their provisional proposals about a month before they submitted their draft scheme to us, thus allowing an opportunity for local comment. 4. Section 7(3) of the Local Government Act 1972 requires that in metropolitan districts elections shall be by thirds. Section 6(2) Cb) of the Act requires that every metropolitan district shall be divided into wards each returning a number of councillors divisible by three. 5- Kirklees Metropolitan Borough Council forwarded their draft scheme of representation to the Commission on 26 May 1976. They proposed to divide the area into 27 wards each returning 3 members to form a council of 81 . Following the elections in May 1976 this scheme was withdrawn and a revised scheme for 2*f 3-member wards was submitted to the Commission on 10 September 1976. 6. The revised draft scheme produced a generally even standard of representation. Comments suggested that this had been achieved at the expense of breaking local ties and objections were received to the grouping of urban and rural areas in the same ward. A political party submitted two alternative schemes for a V2-member and 8l-member council and alternative arrangements for certain areas were suggested in other comments. We studied the draft scheme, the alternative schemes and the alternative arrangements suggested for certain areas. We decided to base our draft proposals on the revised draft scheme submitted by Kirklees Metropolitan Borough Council subject to modifying it by incorporating alternative proposals for three wards put forward by a parish council. Some minor boundary realignments suggested to us by Ordnance Survey were adopted. 7. On 15 July 1977 we issued our draft proposals and these were sent to all who had received our consultation letter or had commented on the Council's draft scheme. Kirklees Metropolitan Borough Council were asked to make these draft proposals, and the accompanying map which defined the proposed ward boundaries, available for inspection at their main offices. Representations on our draft proposals were invited from those to whom they were circulated and, by public notices, from other members of the public and interested bodies. We asked that comments should reach us by 9 September 1977. 8. We received forty two letters in response to the draft proposals. Kirklees Metropolitan Borough Council and West Yorkshire County Council had no comment to make. Objections to the draft proposals, in whole or in part, were received from nineteen local branches of political parties and associations, one councillor, two civic societies, two parish councils, one trades-councils co-ordinating committee, and fifteen members of the public. 9. In view of these comments we decided that we needed further information to enable us to reach a conclusion* Therefore in accordance with section 65(2) of the 1972 Act and at our request, Mr V D Knox, DFC, was appointed an Assistant Commissioner. He was asked to hold a local meeting and to report to us. Notice of the meeting was sent to all who had received our draft proposals or had commented on them, and was published locally. 10. The Assistant Commissioner held a meeting at the Town Hall, Huddersfield on 19 and 20 January 1978, having previously inspected the area. A copy of his report is attached at Schedule 1 to this report.. 11.. In the light of the discussion at the-meeting and further subsequent inspection of certain areas the Assistant Commissioner recommended a pattern of 2^ J-member wards,, forming a council of 72 members, which differed in a number of ways' from our draft proposals.. 12.. The Assistant Commissioner recommended that nine wards forming part of an alternative scheme submitted by a local political party, and supported by another, be adopted instead of our draft proposals for the areas concerned. He further recommended changes in the names of five wards. 1% We reviewed our draft proposals in the light of the comments which had been received and of the Assistant Commissioner's report. We noted that the main effect of the very detailed recommendations of the Assistant Commissioner was to take account of criticism made of our draft proposals in relation to the breaking of local ties. In some cases he had accepted what was suggested by most if not all the critics; in others he had reached his own conclusion after weighing the conflicting arguments, which he was as fairly evenly balanced. From the numerical point of view his recommendations offered a marginally better standard of representation than our draft proposals. We decided to adopt his recommendations as our final proposals. 14. Details of these final proposals are set out in Schedule 2 to this report and on the attached map. The changes recommended by the Assistant Commissioner were nearly all referred to by using polling districts and, at our request, Ordnance Survey have drawn the map showing our final proposals taking account of the changes but not showing polling districts. This accords with our usual practice. Schedule Z gives the names of the wards and the number of councillors to be returned by each. A detailed description of the boundaries of the proposed wards, as defined on the map, is set out in Schedule 3» PUBLICATION 15., In accordance with Section 60(5>(b) of the Local Government Act 1972, a copy of this report and a copy of the map are being sent to the Kirklees Metropolitan Borough Council and will be available for inspection at the Council's main offices. Copies of this report (without map) are being sent to those who received the consultation letter and to those who made comments. L.S.

  • The West Riding in the Late Seventeenth Century by David Hey
    Introduction: The West Riding in the Late Seventeenth Century by David Hey Not only was Yorkshire by far the largest of the ancient counties of England, at 1,709,307 acres, but the West Riding alone exceeded in size every other county except Lincolnshire. The word riding is derived from the late Old English ‘thrithing’ or ‘thriding’, itself adapted from an Old Norse loan word, meaning a third part. Wapentake, similarly derived, was the equivalent of the Anglo-Saxon hundred, and came from the symbolic flourishing of weapons to signify agreement when decisions were made in open-air assemblies at convenient sites, such as a river crossing or by a stone cross.1 The wapentakes continued to see to the levying of taxes, the raising of the militia and the maintenance of law and order and did not finally disappear until the reorganisation of local government in 1974. The West Riding was divided into eleven wapentakes: Ainsty, Agbrigg, Barkston Ash, Claro, Ewcross, Morley, Osgoldcross, Skyrack, Staincliffe, Staincross and Strafforth. The Ainsty, bounded by the rivers Ure, Ouse and Wharfe, had been annexed by Henry VI (d. 1471), king of England, to the city of York, as the county of the city, which was independent of all three ridings, but it was still considered to be a West Riding wapentake. The wapentakes were divided into townships, the vills of medieval documents. In the eastern parts of the West Riding many townships were coterminous with the ecclesiastical parishes and were referred to as parishes in the hearth tax returns, but the large moorland parishes in the west contained numerous townships.
