Review of polling districts, places and stations
A polling district is the smallest geographical sub-division for electoral purposes. Many correspond to parishes or parish meeting areas and the majority have a polling station within their boundary. Where that is not practicable the polling district will be allocated to a polling station nearby.
A summary of the current arrangements is available here.
The first consultation stage of the Review ran from 1 August to 2 September and the comments received, together with the comments of the Acting Returning Officer, were reported to Council on 26 September.
