Made

Coming into force in accordance with article 1
Under section 58(4) of the Local Democracy, Economic Development and Construction Act 2009(1) (“the Act”), the Local Government Boundary Commission for England(2) (“the Commission”) published a report dated May 2015 stating its recommendations for changes to the electoral arrangements for the county of Hertfordshire. The Commission decided to give effect to those recommendations by making the Hertfordshire (Electoral Changes) Order 2015(3) under section 59(1) of the Act.

The Commission makes the following Order in exercise of the power conferred by section 59(6) of the Act.
A draft of this instrument has been laid before each House of Parliament, a period of forty days has expired since the day on which it was laid and neither House has resolved that the instrument be not made.
