By virtue of section 4(6) of the Parliamentary Constituencies Act 1986 (c.56), the coming into force of the Order does not affect any parliamentary election until a proclamation is issued by Her Majesty summoning a new Parliament, or affect the constitution of the House of Commons until the dissolution of the Parliament then in being.
