I may be partly responsible. Some time ago I traced the Essex
district borders from NPE when they didn't cover all of Essex, so
the borders as well as possibly being outdated were incomplete as
well. I do remember the announcement when the NPE maps for the rest
of the SE were available, but never got around to finishing the job.
Once the subject cropped up again here, I got around to finishing
the job, and also added parish boundaries for the district I live in
(again traced from NPE). 

Since I last had a go I also understand relations better, and
corrected the unnamed relation which had almost all the district
boundaries included into separate relations for each district. Then
added new relations for each parish in my local district. I used
inspection tools which report them all as OK and closed, which I
thought is perhaps most useful. I did wonder at the coastal boundary
as the coastline seems a lot more inland than the old boundaries,
and while I suspect coastal erosion may be responsible for the coast
changes, I wasn't sure whether that would affect the old
administrative boundaries.

http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Essex and the Tendring pages now
have columns to mention the boundary relations by number.
