For example the European Region of East Midlands will consist of Nottinghamshire, Derbyshire, Leicestershire. Rutland, Northamptonshire and most of Lincolnshire.
The regions are to be used for fire brigade co-ordination in the future, with one headquarters for each region. Ofcom has tentatively proposed a telephone numbering plan with a wide area code (020, 021, 022 etc.) used for each government office region. Souce: Wikipedia.
