List of Parliamentary Constituencies in County Durham - Boundary Changes

Boundary Changes

The Boundary Commission for England decided to retain these 7 constituencies for the 2010 election, with minor changes to realign constituency boundaries with the boundaries of current local government wards, and to reduce electoral disparity. Apart from the border between Easington and Sedgefield, the changes are hardly noticeable. These changes will be implemented at the United Kingdom general election, 2010.

Famous quotes containing the word boundary:

    “Setting limits gives your child something to define himself against. If you are able to set limits without being overly intrusive or controlling, you’ll be providing him with a firm boundary against which he can test his own ideas.”
    —Stanley I. Greenspan (20th century)

    “If you meet a sectary, or a hostile partisan, never recognize the dividing lines; but meet on what common ground remains,—if only that the sun shines, and the rain rains for both; the area will widen very fast, and ere you know it the boundary mountains, on which the eye had fastened, have melted into air.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
