The commission has proposed that West Sussex be combined with East Sussex as a sub-region of the South East Region, resulting in the creation of a new cross-county boundary constituency named East Grinstead and Uckfield. The resultant changes to existing constituencies would entail the abolition of Arundel and South Downs, Bognor Regis and Littlehampton, East Worthing and Shoreham, and Worthing West, to be replaced by the newly created constituencies of Arundel and Littlehampton, and Bognor Regis, and the re-established constituencies of Shoreham, and Worthing.[6][7][8]
Revised proposals will be published in late 2022 and the final report will be submitted in June 2023.
