Articles 4 and 5 make electoral changes in the parishes of Gainsborough and Keelby.
Article 6 makes provision for elections of parish councils in the district.
The areas of the new district and parish wards are demarcated on the map described in article 1(3). Prints of the map may be inspected at all reasonable times at the offices of West Lindsey District Council and at the offices of the Secretary of State for the Environment, Transport and the Regions, which are located at 2nd Floor, Ashdown House, 123 Victoria Street, London SW1E 6DE.
