Decision details

The sub-committee considered a report which considered the need for the Council to conduct a review of its polling districts and seeks authority for a consultation to take place in respect of the proposals which are set out in this report.

It was noted that the Council was not aware of any specific polling district issues which are significant enough to justify polling district changes in the context of the ongoing electoral review by the Commission.

RESOLVED: (Unanimously)

That the Electoral and Polling District Review Sub-Committee:

1. Authorise the commencement of a Polling District Review for the Cheshire East Borough.

2. Authorise Officers to undertake a consultation upon proposals for the Council’s Polling Districts, as set out in paragraphs 14 and 15 of this report, and to take any other associated actions.

3. Agree that a report will be brought back to the Sub-Committee in due course which will provide details of the consultation responses, together with any other associated matters.
