In connection with this Bill, the Council decided to inform
the London County Council that they deprecated the tendency
of the London County Council to appropriate to themselves duties

Assent, but the following squares in this Borough were deleted
from the Second Part of the Schedule:— The Avenue, Champion
Hill (triangular enclosure), Court Lane Gardens, Dulwich Village
and College Road.)
Representation of the People (No. 2) Bill.
A Bill has been introduced to amend the law relating to Parliamentary
elections and electors by requiring such elections to be on the principle of the
alternative vote and in that connection making provision with respect to the
division of two-member constituencies, abolishing University constituencies and
the business premises qualification for registration; enabling the holding of the
poll to be postponed in those portions of a constituency which are separated from
the mainland, regulating the use of vehicles at elections, and reducing the
maximum scale of election expenses; and for other purposes consequential on
the matters aforesaid.
Clause 1.—This Clause provides that an election for a Member of Parliament

carrying this Section into effect and for adapting the Ballot Act and any other
Act relating to Parliamentary elections and the duties of Returning Officers.

Clause 2.—Commissioners may be appointed to prepare Schemes for dividing
constituencies (other than the City of London and University Constituencies)
which now return two members to serve in Parliament. These constituencies
