Electoral Boundaries Commission

An Electoral Boundaries Commission is an independent body responsible for reviewing and determining the boundaries of electoral districts or constituencies. This ensures fair representation in elections by adjusting these boundaries based on population changes, demographic shifts, and other factors. The commission aims to create districts with roughly equal populations while considering community interests. Its work is crucial for maintaining the integrity of the electoral process, ensuring that each vote carries equal weight and that diverse communities are represented in government. The commission typically seeks public input before finalizing any changes to the boundaries.
