  • Boundary Review Master 06
    Appendix A Text of the Booklet Entitled Background, Processes and Procedures Published at the Start of the Review Fifth Periodical Review of Parliamentary Constituencies in Scotland The Boundary Commission for Scotland Statutory Requirements 1. The Boundary Commission for Scotland has a statutory obligation under the Parliamentary Constituencies Act (1986) to keep under review the Parliamentary constituencies in Scotland and to conduct a general review between 8 and 12 years from the date of the report on its last general review. Since its last review report was submitted to the Secretary of State for Scotland in 1994, the Commission’s next report must be made between December 2002 and December 2006. 2. Changes to the 1986 Act arising from the Scotland Act 1998 require the Commission to apply the electoral quota for England to determine the number of Scottish seats at the Westminster Parliament. On the basis of a quota of around 70,000 electors, the number of Scottish seats at Westminster would fall from the present 72 to around 57. Further, on that basis, the number of seats at the Scottish Parliament would reduce from 129 to around 102. 3. The Scotland Act 1998 also requires that, following a review of parliamentary constituencies in Scotland, the Commission must consider the boundaries of the regions which return additional members to the Scottish Parliament when it makes recommendations that affect constituency boundaries. Further, the Commission must make recommendations regarding the appropriate number of additional members at the Scottish Parliament should it recommend an increase or decrease in the number of Scottish constituencies.
