The counter- proposal allocates seven whole constituencies to the boroughs of Stockport, Tameside and Oldham, nine whole constituencies to the boroughs of Man- chester, Salford and Trafford, and twenty-four whole constituencies to the rest of the region.

On 1 September 1987, we wrote to Stockport Metropolitan Borough Council announcing our intention to undertake a review of Stockport, as part of our review of the Metropolitan County of Greater Manchester and its Metropolitan Districts under section 48(1) of the Local Government Act 1972. Copies of our letter were sent to the adjoining Metropolitan District Councils, to the County and District Councils bordering the Metropolitan County; to Parish Councils in the adjoining districts; to the Local Authority Associations; to Members of Parliament with constituency interests; and to the headquarters of the main political parties. In addition, copies were sent to those government departments, regional health authorities and statutory undertakers which might have an interest, as well as to the English Tourist Board, the local press and the local television and radio stations serving the area. 2. The Metropolitan District Councils were requested, in co- operation as necessary with the other principal authorities, to assist us in publicising the start of the review by inserting a notice for two successive weeks in local newspapers so as to give a wide coverage in the areas concerned.

The Irish Government have said the same, as has the European Wednesday 7 February 2018 Commission. I think it is clear that we will make sure there is no hard border. The House met at half-past Eleven o’clock Dr Andrew Murrison (South West Wiltshire) (Con): The voice of Wales and Scotland is being heard loud and clear in the current Brexit negotiations. That of PRAYERS Northern Ireland most certainly is not, because of the impasse. In answer to Questions 4 and 5, the Secretary of State will no doubt say that the solution is the [MR SPEAKER in the Chair] restoration of the Executive, but if the Executive is not restored, what will she do to make sure the voice of Northern Ireland is heard in the current negotiations in Oral Answers to Questions Brussels? Karen Bradley: I thank my hon. Friend, the Chair of the Northern Ireland Affairs Committee. He will know that I have been working extraordinarily hard over the NORTHERN IRELAND last few weeks on talks, and I will address those matters when I answer Questions 4, 5 and others.

  • Financial Distress
    Denton and Reddish Parliamentary Constituency This is the second bulletin of 2014 produced by Northern Housing Consortium (NHC) providing analysis of housing-related data for the Parliamentary Constituencies in the North of England. The report provides analysis of the impacts of welfare reform and the housing market in the constituency. We have used the following symbols to indicate your performance against the relevant regional or national statistics. Above average Reference point Below average Financial Distress According to The Poverty Site, using data from Annual Survey of Hours and Earnings (ASHE), 22.3% of employees in the Tameside area are paid less than £7 per hour (below their low paid threshold). Census data shows that in Denton and Reddish, 26.1% of 16 to 74 year olds in employment worked part-time and that of these, 26.7% worked 15 hours or less. As Figure 1 below shows, Denton West (28.6%) has the highest proportions of part-time workers working 15 hours or less. Across the North, the number of people claiming Housing Benefit whilst in employment (and not on a passported Benefit) has risen by 7% between May 2013 and May 2014. There was also an increase in Denton and Reddish (13.1%) from 1,237 to 1,399 during this time (DWP). A survey carried out by Which? estimates that 44% of people in the constituency are worried about their level of household debt and 51% are worried about the level of their savings and investments. It also shows that 8% have defaulted on a loan, bill or housing costs.
