advised that the Electoral Administration Act 2006 required
the Council to carry out a review of all its polling stations every four
years. The main purpose of the review
was to ensure that all residents had reasonable facilities for voting.

was reported that, as part of the review process, electors, Councillors and
other interested parties had been consulted; details of all polling districts
and polling stations had been published on the Council’s website. It was noted that no comments had been
received. In addition, the Polling Station Review Working Party had considered
the scheme and recommended it for approval.
RESOLVED:
That Council be recommended to adopt the amendments to the scheme, as detailed
in the Appendix to the report, for the period 2014/19.
