Councillors
The first elections for the Greater London Council were held on 9 April 1964. Each of the new London boroughs was allocated between two and four councillors. The City of Westminster was combined the City of London and The Inner Temple and Middle Temple to elect four councillors. In total there were 100 councillors. In addition 16 aldermen were elected by the council at their first meeting on 27 April 1964. The council acted as a shadow authority until 1 April 1965 when it came into its full powers. The next two GLC elections were also held on a "borough-wide" basis: the legislation creating the council provided that there should be one councillor for each parliamentary constituency in Greater London. However constituency boundaries were not revised until 1970, and first used for GLC elections in 1973.
