Boundary changes

The Boundary Commission for England has recommended that the county should in future be
divided into 18 constituencies. The proposed Aldershot and Basingstoke seats, more predominantly
urban than as present defined, will be designated borough constituencies.
These changes will be implemented at the United Kingdom general election, 2010.
