Birmingham Moseley was a constituency of the House of Commons of the Parliament of the United Kingdom from 1918 to 1950. It elected one Member of Parliament (MP) by the first-past-the-post system of election. == Boundaries == Berween 1885 and 1918 the parliamentary borough of Birmingham was split into seven single-member divisions. The Representation of the People Act 1918 provided for a redistribution of Birmingham into twelve constituencies, one of which was Birmingham Moseley. Moseley was the south-westernmost of the Birmingham seats established in 1918. It comprised the then City Council wards of Acock's Green and Sparkhill, with parts of the wards of Balsall Heath, King's Norton, Moseley and King's Heath, and Sparkbrook. By the 1935 United Kingdom general election, the electorate of the Moseley division exceeded 100,000 voters. Towards the end of the Second World War it was decided to instruct the Boundary Commission for England to prepare a scheme to divide the seats with more than 100,000 voters. This was provided for by the House of Commons (Redistribution of Seats) Act 1944, as an interim measure before the first general review of all the constituencies took place later in the decade. At the 1945 United Kingdom general election, the Acock's Green and Hall Green wards became the new seat of Birmingham Acock's Green. The remainder of the previous Moseley remained as that division, comprising the Moseley and King's Heath, and Sparkhill wards with part of King's Norton ward. As a result of the first general review, the Moseley division disappeared from the United Kingdom general election, 1950. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Birmingham Moseley (UK Parliament constituency)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
