Boundary Commission Review
The Boundary Commission for England (BCE) is redrawing constituency boundaries in order to rebalance the number of electors represented by each MP, and a final consultation on proposed new constituencies is now open. A new revised map of constituency proposals, which takes into account feedback sent in by the public on the initial proposals has been published. Send in your views before the closing date of 5 December 2022 to have your say on new parliamentary constituency boundaries.
The Local Government Boundary Commission for England (LGBCE) undertook a review of electoral arrangements for Nottinghamshire County Council in 2014-15.
New county electoral division (ED) boundaries
The aim of an electoral review is to recommend electoral division boundaries such that each county councillor represents approximately the same number of voters. There is also the intention to ensure that the pattern of divisions reflects the interests and identities of local communities as well as promoting effective local government and take into account future population changes.
Further details can be found on the Boundary Commission website.
New district ward boundaries
The Commission has also carried out reviews of electoral ward boundaries within each District of Nottinghamshire, the aim of which was to recommend ward boundaries such that each councillor represents approximately the same number of electors.
Further details can be found on the Boundary Commission website.
