Commission on Boundary Changes in Scotland

The Commission on Boundary Changes in Scotland is an independent body responsible for reviewing and recommending adjustments to electoral boundaries for parliamentary constituencies. Its goal is to ensure fair representation in the Scottish Parliament and the UK Parliament by considering population changes and demographics. The commission regularly assesses whether existing boundaries reflect current population distributions effectively, ensuring each constituency has approximately equal numbers of voters. By making these changes, the commission helps maintain the principle of "one person, one vote," promoting a more equitable electoral process across Scotland.
