Local Government Boundary Commission

The Local Government Boundary Commission is an independent body in the UK responsible for reviewing and recommending changes to local government boundaries. Its main roles include ensuring that electoral boundaries represent communities fairly, reflecting population changes, and improving the efficiency of local governance. The Commission conducts thorough investigations, gathers public opinions, and proposes plans for boundary adjustments, which are then considered by Parliament. This process helps ensure that local councils can function effectively and that residents are appropriately represented in their local government.
